Lubavitch International has launched a fresh, thoughtful addition to its storytelling lineup: a new weekly podcast delivering a sharp, inspiring takeaway from the parsha in under seven minutes.
Torah in Seven, hosted by the magazine’s editor-in-chief, Baila Olidort, distills each week’s parsha into a clear, compelling narrative—then zooms in on one powerful idea that sheds new light on our lives today.
“We wanted to give our readers something meaningful and accessible that they can tune into regularly,” said Mrs. Olidort.
The debut episode, Vayetzei: Pondering Patience, explores how Yaakov Avinu steadies himself through conflict and chaos, and what his quiet resilience can teach us about navigating the pressures of modern life.
Torah in Seven is now streaming on all major platforms. Tune in, think deeper, and carry a weekly spark of Torah with you.
Really inspiring and very informative.
Explained beautifully.
Thank you very much.
Excellent writer/editor transformed ( over time and with patience) into a clear and very relevant conveyer of a meaningful Torah message.
In this age of instant gratification – you captured a beautiful lesson in 7 minutes.
Yasher koach . Looking forward to the next installment.
Pondering Patience is Perfectly Perfect! Loved listening! The pace, the clarity, the voice and tone, the message – one amazing bundle – SO beautifully delivered! Packed with more content than expected in only 7 minutes! Beautiful chassidus. Relatable and relevant. Down to earth. Gave me a new appreciation for patience and transformation, to let the meats and the moments marinade….
In an age when public platforms for information and even Torah learning are flooded with broadcasts and podcasts, many of them superficial and silly, -it is truly rewarding to discover an online Torah thought that is meaningful, substantive, and concise; something you genuinely look forward to with each new episode.
Baila Olidort’s Torah thought is a true gem, outstanding: fresh, genuinely inspiring. It offers a fresh fascinating and relevant facet into the Parsha, presented with refinement and exceptional class. Please keep it going, -you will undoubtedly build a large and loyal following.
Many thanks, and brachos for continued success.
