This time, Rabbi Shmuel discusses one of the most relevant topics\u2014how to find a true partner and build a strong family. <\/p><p> <\/p><p>The portion &#8220;The Life of Sarah&#8221; tells the story of the first matchmaking in history\u2014Abraham instructing his servant Eliezer to find a wife for Isaac. In this episode, Rabbi Kaminezki explains why this particular story became a model for all generations, how it combines trust, faith, and freedom of choice, and why the Torah emphasizes that Rivka was specifically asked for her consent. <\/p><p> <\/p><p>In his inspiring address, Rabbi Shmuel Kaminezki raises questions that concern many parents and young people today: Why does modern youth so often hesitate to marry? Where is the line between parental support and pressure? How can one find that delicate balance between care, wise counsel, and respect for personal choice?  <\/p><p> <\/p><p>This episode is a profound reflection on the role of family, trust, and spirituality in building relationships. Rabbi Kaminezki shares lessons from the Torah that remain relevant today: a true partnership is born where there is mutual respect, faith, and a willingness to hear one another. <\/p><p> <\/p><p>Watch the new episode on the &#8220;Menorah&#8221; YouTube channel and share your thoughts in the comments\u2014let&#8217;s talk about it together.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0857cea e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"0857cea\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-67df647 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"67df647\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/youtu.be\\\/-tDsNMy_oSw?si=QFcBenppzB38bhJx&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new episode from the series of talks by the Chief Rabbi of Dnipro, Shmuel Kaminezki, dedicated to the weekly Torah portion &#8220;Chayei Sarah,&#8221; has been released on the &#8220;Menorah&#8221; YouTube channel.
