NOAH: Is Evil Within or Acquired? - STUMP THE RABBI (219)

Experts studying the Nazi war criminals debated whether these people were inherently evil from birth or it was acquired.

In Parashat Noah HaShem says Evil is within man, but the sages explain that there is a deeper meaning to how it got there. Once we understand the source, it becomes easier to remove it, and tonight we'll learn about some of the benefits of doing just that.

This will be followed by your live questions about different topics. Enjoy, Share, Learn and Be Holy.

Dear Kvod haRav and to all dedicated learners of Torah,
remember that every letter you study or preach illuminates worlds both seen and unseen. Your dedication to understanding HaShem's wisdom is not just learning - it's breathing life into the universe itself. When fatigue sets in, recall that you are links in an unbroken chain stretching from Sinai to eternity. Your diligence in uncovering new insights within ancient texts keeps Torah fresh and vibrant for each generation.
Like the morning dew that renews daily, may your enthusiasm for learning never diminish. Whether in times of clarity or confusion, remember that sustained Torah study transforms not only the mind but elevates the soul. As the sages teach: 'Yagati umatzati - ta'amin'.
Your persistent effort in Torah study, even when challenging, creates lasting impact far beyond what you can see. Be strong and of good courage, for every moment spent in Torah study builds eternal worlds! Chazak u'Baruch!

Targum Jerusalem, Genesis 6:3 - And the Word of the Lord said, The generations which are to arise shall not be judged after the manner of the generation of the deluge, which is to be destroyed, and exterminated, and finally blotted out. Have I not imparted my spirit to the sons of men, because they are flesh, that they may work good works? But they do works of evil. Behold, I have given them a prolongment of a hundred and twenty years, that they may work repentance; but they have not done it.
