My name is Rabbi Matt Schneeweiss, and this is the hub for all of my shiurim (classes) on Tefilah (Prayer) and related topics, such as Tehilim (Psalms) and Berachos (Blessings)! The shiurim I upload here are given in a variety of formats with different lengths and intended for different audiences. The common theme which unites all of these shiurim is our focus on strengthening our relationship with Hashem through Avodah she'ba'Lev (Service of the Heart). If you have any questions feel free to email me at rabbischneeweiss at gmail. Thanks for listening!© 2026 The Tefilah Podcast Ciencias Sociales Espiritualidad Filosofía Judaísmo

  • Tehilim 136: Hallel ha'Gadol (Part 3 - Malbim)
    Mar 26 2026

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 1 hour 1 minute
    Synopsis: This evening (3/25/26), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began with the Radak's comments on the "ki le'olam chasdo" refrain, followed by a brief comment by Sforno's student on the fine-tuning of the universe, and then spent the rest of the shiur learning the Malbim's approach. We had a brief detour into an angel-related Haggadah topic, but stayed pretty much on track after that. We definitely came up with AN approach. Whether it's what the Malbim had in mind I'll leave for you to decide!

    This week's Torah content is sponsored by Seth Speiser, in honor of the yahrzeit of his father, Rabbi George Speiser (Rav Yosef ben Dovid). Rabbi Speiser was a kind and gentle soul as well as an Intellectual and a scholar. He received smicha from Rav Hutner at Chaim Berlin. His love for teaching and making puns was only outweighed by his love of family.

  • Tehilim 136: Hallel ha'Gadol (Part 2 - Our Theory)
    Mar 12 2026

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 1 hour 1 minutes
    Synopsis: This evening (3/11/26), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began by reviewing the translation and questions from last time, and then set out to explain the perek. Thankfully, we managed to come up with an excellent approach, inspired in part by Saadia Gaon and Rambam with a minor assist from Radak and Meiri. I'm really happy with what we said, and I'm looking forward to delving into one of the full-length interpretations of the meforshim next time!

    This week’s Torah content is sponsored by Rabbi Dr. Ben Aaronson in honor of NYHS (Northwest Yeshiva High School), our alma mater. So many of our friends and classmates — and the two of us — owe our connection to Torah and Judaism to the outstanding education we received there.

    NYHS just concluded a successful CauseMatch campaign. If you missed it, worry not! Donations are still more than welcome. If you’ve benefited from me, from past and present NYHS teachers (Rabbi Moskowitz zt”l, Rabbi Fox, and others), or simply want to support an exceptional institution with visionary leadership, consider contributing today at nyhs.org/giving.

    The Torah content this week is also sponsored by Avital and Yitzy Richter. May we be zocheh to see Hashem redeem Klal Yisrael and lead us from geulah to geulah!

  • Tehilim 136: Hallel ha'Gadol (Part 1 - Translation and Questions)
    Mar 5 2026

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Length: 1 hour
    Synopsis: This evening (3/4/26), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we took another break from our "Kabbalas Shabbos" perakim to do something Pesach related: Hallel ha'Gadol (i.e. Tehilim 136). We began by reviewing the relevant halacha in the Shulchan Aruch and the Rambam as a sort of teaser for where I hope to go with this. We then commenced our usual analysis of the perek, focusing on the translation, the pivot point, and the big picture questions. Next time, we'll move to answers and theories! (בג"ה)
