Containing the Uncontainable: Order, Chaos, and a God Who Won’t Fit in a Box

Starting with a love letter to The Container Store, Rabbi Oren Hayon moves from color‑coded bins and lucite organizers to Parashat Bamidbar and the wild revelation of Shavuot. He contrasts the Torah’s obsession with census, structure, and perfectly ordered camps with the thunder, fire, and uncontainable holiness of Sinai, asking what it means to seek both spiritual scaffolding and sacred spontaneity. Rabbi Hayon invites listeners to cherish the rituals that keep life grounded while making room for wonder, grief, love, and God’s presence that can never be neatly packed away.
