About The Podcast

HaRav Shimshon Nachmani, author of Zera Shimshon, lived in Italy about 300 years ago in the time of the Or HaChaim HaKodesh. The Chida writes that he was a great Mekubal and wrote many sefarim including sefarim about “practical kabbolo” and asked that all of his sefarim be buried after he passes away except for Zera Shimshon and Niflaos Shimshon on Avos. 

HaRav Shimshon Nachmani had one child who died in his lifetime (hence the name “Zera Shimshon”) and in the preface he promises for people who learn his sefarim after he dies “… And your eyes will see children and grandchildren like the offshoots of an olive tree around your tables, wise and understanding with houses filled with all manner of good things… and wealth and honor…”

Each week, we interpret and explain a chapter of this important Sefer.
