Parasha Re’eh: The Danger of Self-Centered Judaism by Rabbi Aaron Golfiz

Parashat Re’eh challenges us to look beyond ourselves. Too often, Judaism gets reduced to my mitzvot, my learning, my growth—but the Torah demands more. In this class, Rabbi Aaron Golfiz explains why a self-centered Judaism is incomplete, and why the highest expression of loving Hashem is sharing Him with others through kiruv (Jewish Outreach).Drawing from Rambam and classic sources, we learn that if pulling Jews away is the worst sin, then bringing Jews back is the greatest mitzvah. True love of God means spreading His Torah, inviting others in, and carrying responsibility for all of Am Yisrael—not just for ourselves.
