A weekly walk through the parsha
Rabbi Labish Becker's shiurim follow the weekly Torah reading, with a clear run through Sefer Devarim — Shoftim, Re'eh, Ki Seitzei, Ki Savo, Nitzavim-Vayeilech. Taken together they trace Moshe's final addresses to the people, and Becker uses that setting well: these are parshiyos dense with mitzvos and with a leader's parting instructions, and he draws out what they ask of a listener today.
The weekly format gives the material a natural cadence. Each parsha shiur stands on its own, so a family can join at any week and come away with a complete idea, while those who follow along accumulate a steady perspective on the Torah as the year turns. It is parsha learning meant to be lived with, not filed away.
The Yamim Noraim and the weight of the day
Becker also speaks to the seasons of the Jewish year, including the Yamim Noraim. A shiur such as "Yom Kippur 5778" reflects his approach to the day — treating it not as an ordeal to survive but as an appointment to take seriously, with a clear sense of what a person is meant to be doing while the day is here. He gives families language for the avodah of the moment.
That seasonal material pairs naturally with his parsha work. Both are anchored in the calendar, and both aim to make the moment count rather than pass. Whether it is a week or a Yom Tov, the instinct is the same: name what this time is for, and help a listener meet it with intention rather than habit.
Torah meets the modern challenge of technology
What sets his catalog apart is a willingness to address contemporary pressures head-on, including technology and its safe use. This is a subject many families wrestle with privately, and Becker treats it as a legitimate area for Torah guidance rather than a taboo — thinking through how a Jewish home holds its values steady amid tools that did not exist a generation ago, and what safe, sane use actually looks like.
Placing technology alongside parsha and Yom Tov says something about his overall stance: Torah is meant to speak to real life, including its newest complications. For parents in particular, that combination — timeless parsha and present-day challenges from one voice — makes his shiurim a practical resource rather than an abstract one, and worth returning to.
