Purim: Real Love (25:26)
How do we get the oil out without crushing the olive? Rabbi Dov Yona Korn begins with Purim and the Jew’s acceptance of the Torah even though they are in exile, and struggling with existence. Why is it that when Jews are crushed they stand strong in their observance, and yet when in an environment of freedom and acceptance huge numbers run to assimilate and intermarry

Does God Slumber When We Sleep? (55:13)
Megillas Esther was written under the influence of the Spirit of G-d. Rabbi Avrohom Bergstein discusses the essential bond that G-d has with a Jew. The point of the needle, where it has no dimensions, is like the point of contact where G-d knocks on the door of the Jewish soul. Being an infinite point, connecting to the infinity of G-d, there is no element of time.

Hidden Script of your Life (Purim) (1:30:34)
One of the Purim story's most notable aspects is the fact the G-d is not mentioned once throughout the Megillah. Jewish mysticism teaches that during the events of Purim, G-d was concealed within natural events even more than usual. With this piece of wisdom, Rabbi Simon Jacobson shows us how we can see G-d hidden in the events of our own lives as well.
