Rabbi Yaron Reuven 2,292 views

Rabbi Yaron Reuven explains that Chanukah is not just about celebrating the miracle of the oil lasting for eight days, but about the spiritual war against Hellenism and the importance of observing Torah. He emphasizes that the Greeks aimed to destroy the Jewish way of life by forcing assimilation, promoting hedonism, and undermining belief in HaShem. Rabbi Reuven highlights the significance of HaShem's wisdom and the need to appreciate it. He warns against the Greek mentality of relying solely on human intellect and self-sufficiency. He emphasizes the importance of being a 'kosher' Jew, deeply connected to Torah, and warns against the dangers of materialism and a lack of fear of sinning. The shiur emphasizes that true Emunah goes beyond simply believing in HaShem, but involves fearing sin and living a life dedicated to serving Him. It is a call to action, reminding listeners to play their roles in the world and not become seduced by worldly temptations.

Born in Netanya, Israel, Rabbi Yaron Reuven began his American Dream as a little boy, when his family immigrated to the United States. He went from a newspaper boy at the age of 10, to a well-known self-made Wall Street multimillionaire by the age of 23. During his time in Wall Street, he owned his own private brokerage firm, a hedge fund, and an international insurance agency. He was featured on CNBC, Bloomberg and Chinese NDTV due to his success in the financial industry. At age 26 he faced a 7-year battle for his life when a simple surgery went wrong. From that moment his life would never be the same. This moment marked the start of a series of miraculous events and an exciting pursuit of truth, ultimately resulting in Rabbi Reuven renouncing his lofty position and success in Wall Street, after 16 years, to become a full-time KIRUV rabbi. His Teshuva story is sure to catch the heart of every listener.​ Rabbi Reuven’s shiurim are in English and Hebrew.
