About Rabbi Mendel Kessin

Rabbi Mendel Kessin is a rabbi and teacher of hashkafa on Lehallel — the filtered YouTube platform. 718+ of his recordings can be watched here, with no ads and no comments.

Rabbi Mendel Kessin teaches hashkafa - how the Torah sees Hashem's plan for the world, the soul, history and the redemption - and he teaches it in long numbered series, each shiur building on the one before it.

The Weekly Hashkafa Shiur, past its hundred and twenty-eighth part, takes one question at a time: "Evil's Place in this World", "The Blueprint of Creation", "Hashem's Gameplan - the 5 Parts of the Neshama and the 5 Worlds", "The Akeida and its Significance for the Redemption", "What Brings the Mashiach?" and "The Secret of Ahavas Yisrael". The Yamim Tovim come as they arrive in the year: Shavuos and its spiritual identity, Rosh Hashanah as "The Evaluation of Your Tikun Standing", and the Tenth of Teves.

Derech Hashem / The Way of God learns the Ramchal's sefer in more than seventy parts: existence itself, the components of creation, Oz V'Tiferes, man's free will, what yiras Hashem really is, the secret of the yetzer tov, and the three ways Hashem interacts with the world. Beside it stands a shiur for the Ramchal's yahrzeit.

His shiurim on the end of days follow the same plan, step by step: the Messianic Process in more than a dozen parts - the Divine Plan, the balance between the Satan and the Jews, the last three subjugations, Gog and Magog - Mashiach ben Yosef and his suffering, Hanhagas HaKeitz and the four behaviors of God throughout history, and Jewish Spiritual Dimensions in the Messianic Era. A series on Yaakov and Esav reads Esav as the root soul of a fourth Av ("Esav: The Fourth Av", "The Hidden Story of Esav's Birthright", "Yaakov's Attempt at Getting Esav to do Teshuva"), and beside it Amalek and the spiritual essence of Purim.

Meditation, the Nature of the Soul and Nevuah runs fifteen parts. The Method of Structured Learning teaches how to learn and remember the Mishnah - Brachos, Maseches Shabbos, Succah and Rosh Hashanah, with a memory system for what was learned - and with it come his Derech Iyun shiurim on how to think and learn. Each shiur opens on its own page, with no ads and no comments around it.

You can search inside the shiurim by what was said, play the whole catalog back to back, or follow Rabbi Mendel Kessin to be told when something new comes in.

“But I do criticize his decision. He doesn't understand something. Peace is a value. Tremendous value. That's true. You always want peace. But there's a time that peace, that war is peace. And there's a tremendous mitzvah merit to go to war. And he is making a mistake.”

“And therefore, what we now realize is the yechida of Adam Harishon which split. So, one Yechida one part that is the crown of the Mashiach ben Yosef. You see? And that is how he brings the presence of God back where all Jews experience it. You see?”

“You see, cuz he reveals a certain level of information, you know, that we are not aware of. And Mashiach ben David, you know, his job is the execution of a different mindset, which is righteousness. To execute righteousness and to carry out a kingdom of righteousness.”
