Join Rav Shlomo Katz in unpacking the prophetic and spiritual roots of Israel’s modern wars—1948, 1967, 1973, and today, through the eyes of Chazal and our greatest tzaddikim.

Drawing from the sefer Hilchot Milchama V’Shalom by Rav Shmuel Eliyahu, Rav Shlomo warns us of the mistake we made after the Six-Day War — believing we had succeeded by the “strength of our own hands”— and how that same spiritual arrogance led to the tragedies of Yom Kippur 1973 and Simchat Torah 2023.

But there’s a path forward. The secret weapon? Anavah (humility)—the awareness that all our strength comes from Hashem.

In this special episode, recorded amidst escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, Rav Shlomo shares raw, heartfelt Torah to help us spiritually anchor in these trying times.

From the bomb shelters of Ra’anana to the deep teachings of Rabbi Nachman and Reb Yitzchak Breiter, Rav Shlomo opens a window into the soul of Am Yisrael—our strength, our pain, and our unbreakable longing for redemption. He responds directly to those who don’t understand the eternal mission of the Jewish people, reframing suffering not as defeat, but as part of a matarah nitzchit, an eternal purpose.

What does real victory look like? Not a regime change in Tehran, but the rebuilding of the Beit HaMikdash and the return of Mashiach.
