Everyone is welcome, sessions for beginners and more advanced students included in the day. For more information, see jccmanhattan.org/makom.

Old and new friends spent Sunday night with Laibl Wolf as he inspired a pack JCC room on the Upper West Side (UWS) of Manhattan. The peripatetic Australian Chabad Rabbi tours the world speaking about his unique brand of Psycho-Kabbalah and was very well received by the discerning NYCgroup. Laibl will be appearing in Sinailive in the next few weeks as he joins other world-class spiritual guides. His teaching style forces personal introspection with a focus on self, relationship and spirituality. This is the same approach thatwe are taking in Sinai live.. Laibl is personable, knowledgeable and fields question from the audience in a funny but hugely informative manner. We will miss ya. Have a safe trip!! Become a Sinai live member and receive updates to when Rabbi Wolf and other Spiritual Guides are added to our improved and dynamic website.
The Hollywood writer's strike continues with the primary negotiation issue focused on the creation of the word and residual rights. Why include this labor dispute in the blog? How does it relate to the Sinai Live initiative? Things were so much more simpler back in Biblical times. WWMD-- What Would Moses Do? Should the Moses family receive a royalty for Ten Commandment use and re-use? The Burning Bush has appeared in a ton of places over the past 3000 years. Are Prophets due back-end profits? What about all of the Mishnah and Gammara late nights? There was no Rabbinical union for writers. These are all important modernTalmudic questions!!!
Why have we included this Daily Show video in Sinai Live? Are we just trying to create general appeal? We admit --It may me a giant stretch-- In part, we miss the Daily Stewart/Colbert Ritual before reciting the Sh'ma. The video below is funny, provocative and must have some relevant implications. The strike is not a coincidence and may be a great audience opportunity for Sinai Live-- to reach a coveted target group of knowledge seekers who reject reruns. Also, Sinai Live could fill a content void and gain a Late Night or Prime Time slot. We have mixed feelings on when it should all be resolved. Our thoughts and prayers are with the writer's and their families.
