Yaakov the Merkavah of Tiferes with Rabbi Gershon Meisel

---

Season 6 Episode 200

---

In this episode we continue our seven-part series on the Merkavah, the Divine Chariot, with Rabbi Gershon Meisel. Together we explore Yaakov Avinu, the Merkavah of Tiferes (harmony, beauty, and truth). Rabbi Meisel explains how Yaakov’s life of struggle, resilience, and faith shaped him into the embodiment of balance and truth, and how his experiences mirror the challenges every Jew faces. We discuss the meaning of Tiferes, the role of truth (Emes) in contrast with falsehood, and how Yaakov’s journey guides us in becoming a chariot for Hashem in our own lives.
