Ari Fuld on the Parsha
The Eagle, the Torah, and the Strength of Israel – Parshat Ha’azinu
What protects the Jewish people—the army we build, or the source of strength behind it? In Ha’azinu, Ari Fuld turns Moshe Rabbeinu’s final words into a powerful lesson about God’s protection, the meaning of Jewish morality, the dishonesty of denying Israel’s connection to its land, and why the Torah remains the life source of the Jewish people.

Ari Fuld on Rosh Hashanah: ‘Ayeka – Where Are You?’
Where is Rosh Hashanah mentioned in the Torah? Where does the name Rosh Hashanah come from? And how did it become Judgment Day?

Chazak Ve’Ematz: What Makes a Jewish Leader? – Parshat Vayeilech
Why does Moshe tell Yehoshua to “be strong and courageous” when Jewish faith teaches us not to rely on our own strength? And when does humility stop being a virtue and become an excuse for failing to lead?
Ari Fuld on the Parsha
Why Are We Standing Here? – Parshat Nitzavim
How can the Torah declare, “You are standing here today,” immediately after warning of exile, curses and national disaster? Why does punishment in Judaism lead not to rejection, but to return — and are we watching that promised return unfold in our own generation?

Our Land, Our Responsibility – Parshat Ki Tavo
What do Bikkurim teach us about the Jewish people’s connection to the Land of Israel, and why does the Torah require us to recount our history when we bring its fruits? Ari explains that being indigenous to the Land is not only about rights—it carries a covenant, responsibilities, and the recognition that ultimately, the Ba’al HaBayit is God.

The Secret to Victory – Parshat Ki Teitzei
Why does a parsha that begins with war suddenly turn to lost property, marriage, compassion for animals, paying workers on time, and other seemingly unrelated commandments? Ari Fuld explains that Ki Teitzei is not really teaching us only how to fight a war—it is teaching us what makes us worthy of victory.

What Kind of Government Does the Torah Want? – Parshat Shoftim
Is Judaism a democracy, a monarchy, or a theocracy—and what happens when those systems come into conflict? Ari Fuld argues that the Torah’s answer is all three, but only when judges, leaders, and even kings remain subordinate to an objective morality defined by Torah.

Between Opinion and Morality – Parshat Re’eh
Why does the Torah tell us to “see” the blessing and the curse rather than simply listen? Why are the blessing and curse presented as the choice itself rather than as later rewards and punishments? Can morality be defined by each person and society according to what seems right in their own eyes, and if not, what makes the Torah’s moral standard objective and binding?
