Summary
In episode forty-four of the 48 Ways series during the Omer, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe teaches Shoel U’Mayshiv, Shomea U’Mosif — asking and answering, listening and adding. True learning requires active engagement: clearly define the topic, deliberate on its personal relevance, and apply it practically to life. Don’t be a passive listener or embarrassed to ask questions — a fool avoids asking, while the wise pursue understanding relentlessly. Rabbi Wolbe encourages researching answers yourself first (to gain broader wisdom along the way), then listening deeply to expand on them. Make every piece of wisdom your own rather than repeating others. Torah study must lead to action and transformation, not just intellectual accumulation. This way builds directly on previous teachings about absorption, growth without complacency, and using knowledge for real change. _____________ Recorded in the TORCH Centre - Studio B to a live audience on June 28, 2022, in Houston, Texas.
