Rabbi Trugman

Weekly Torah Portion with R' Shlomo Carlebach

Join us as we explore the deeper meanings of the Book of Bamidbar (Numbers) through the lens of Reb Shlomo Carlebach’s teachings. In this session, we discuss why this book is known as the "Book of Mistakes," the difference between technical learning and soul-integrated wisdom, and why the desert remains the ultimate setting for receiving the Torah.

We are also excited to announce that our new book, Ma'aseh Merkavah: The Workings of the Chariot, is now available on Amazon! This book is a compilation of our deep-dive series into the prophetic workings of the Chariot. Click the link to learn more: https://thetrugmans.com/maaseh-merkavah-workings-of-the-chariot/
