About this listen

In one of Rav Shlomo Katz’s most powerful shiurim yet, he opens the Torah of Reb Shlomo Carlebach to confront one of the hardest spiritual illnesses of our generation: lashon hara that dresses up as holiness.

Through the eyes of Reb Nosson of Breslov, Rav Shlomo exposes the yetzer hara in a shtreimel — how gossip and judgment can masquerade as truth, justice, or “for the sake of Heaven.” Drawing from Reb Shlomo’s own letters, he pleads for a Torah of compassion — one that protects the honor of the living and the dead, and never confuses cruelty for courage.

With deep emotion, Reb Shlomo reminds us that the Beis HaMikdash was not destroyed by heresy, but by people who justified hatred in the name of Torah.

A call to love more fiercely, to protect the dignity of Torah, and to stop mistaking condemnation for holiness.
