Rabbi Neal J. Loevinger Articles By Rabbi Neal J. Loevinger
-
Judging Ourselves And Others
The priest's role in declaring and treating leprosy, a physical manifestation of spiritual impurity, teaches us not to judge our own or others' spiritual lives.
-
Portable Holiness
God was careful to teach the Israelites that holiness derives from encounters with God in Torah study; it is not intrinsic to locations like Mt. Sinai.
-
Anger Management
The brothers could not speak peacefully with Joseph because they allowed their anger and resentment to control them, rather than asserting their control over their anger.
-
Integrating Knowledge
Knowledge of God does not always translate into actions based on that knowledge.
-
A Map Of Pluralism
The arrangement of the Israelites around the Tabernacle, as individuals and as a community, provides us with a model for pluralism.
-
The Spirituality Of Business Ethics
Recognizing God as a partner in all business dealings inspires us to conduct these dealings with the utmost care and honesty.
-
Overcoming Self-Doubt
Moses's complaint and God's response teach us that despite our doubts and insecurities, we can, and should, work to accomplish our unique missions in life.
-
Seeing The Ram
The miracle of the ram caught in the bushes was that, in the final moment, Avraham was able to perceive it as an alternative to sacrificing his son.
-
Self Deception
Before the Children of Israel enter the land, Moses cautions them against self-deception, an appropriate warning for the high holidays as well.
-
Not Seeing Is The Sin
Like Bilaam, we should open our eyes to seeing the problematic paths we take in life.
