Chukat-Balak (Guest Rabbi Pinchas Allouche)
Podcasts > The Seth Leibsohn Show
Saturday, June 27, 2026
Rabbi Pinchas Allouche, head Rabbi at Congregation Beth Tefillah in Scottsdale, and the host of the Rabbi Allouche podcast, joins Seth for the full hour to talk about this week's Torah portion, Chukat-Balak, coming from the book of Numbers, his recent visit to Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson’s gravesite in New York, and a newly-released draft report from the Religious Liberty Commission. They examine the story of Miriam, who sacrificed herself to save her brother Moses, and the concept of the "thirty-six righteous people" who are believed to be the key to maintaining balance and order in the world. Rabbi Allouche also reflects on the story of Balaam, who was tasked with cursing the Jewish people but ultimately learned a valuable lesson about humility and obedience.
