Goal: The chanichim should see from this story the anarchy and immoral behavior that took place during the time of the Shoftim, largely because there was no king or strong central leader in charge. They will also see the irony and the backwardness shown in this story by the people who should be leaders.

Goal: The chanichim will discuss how Shimshon is an extremely strange Shofet, and how this was all on purpose; that Am Israel needed an undercover Shofet who could work undercover, living amongst the Pelishtim, to fight them single handedly on behalf on Am Israel. The chanichim will discuss why Shimshon needed to be a Nazir to offset the dangers of this mission and will discuss the story of his birth and the characters of his mother and father- Manoach and Eshet Manoach.

בפעולה זו נברר יחד עם החניכים את מאפייניו של המנהיג האידיאלי, ע"י הכרת דמותו של דוד המלך.מתוך כך נלמד להבחין בין סוגי המנהיגים השונים ונפנים את המידות החשובות למנהיג ולנו.דוד המלך הוא סמל למנהיגות ביהדות, הוא צומח מתוך העם ולמרות שהוא נרדף וחייו אינם קלים הוא לעולם לא מוותר, הוא שומר על אופיו ולא נכנע- גם כשיש לו הזדמנות לפגוע בשאול שרודף אחריו ולא נותן לו לחיות בנחת- הוא לא עושה זאת מכיוון ששאול הוא המלך. גם כשהוא חוטא- הוא חוזר בתשובה ומבקש מהקב"ה שימחל לו. לא סתם אנחנו מתפללים כל יום למשיח בן דוד, משיח מזרע דוד – הוא משיח בעל תכונותיו של דוד המלך. מהסיפור הזה אנחנו לומדים כיצד ראויה להיות דמותו של המנהיג שלנו ולפי מה לבחור אותו- לא לפי מראהו או עושרו, אלא לפי צרוף תכונות אילו. ואם דוד, שהיה רועה צאן, הצליח להגיע להיות מלך ישראל- כל אחד מאתנו יכול להיות מנהיג, הרי דוד מלך ישראל חי וקיים, איך הוא חי וקיים? בנו , בתכונות המנהיגות שבנו.

Goals:The chanichim should understand the different stages of the Shoftim cycle and how it differs from the system of Melucha-Galut.The chanichim should understand the general structure of Sefer Shoftim and how it is in a downhill spiral.Intro: In our last shiur we saw how Am Israel failed to fulfill their mission by Yehoshua and left a lot of the land unconquered. Then the Malach came to them in the beginning of Perek Bet to yell at them for not fulfilling their job, and not taking initiative to conquer the rest of the land.Now we move onto a 2nd problem which is a direct consequence of Bnei Israel not taking initiative to conquer the land. There are now many, many avodah zara worshipping members of the 7 nations hanging out around Jewish towns in Eretz Israel.  They start influencing Bnei Israel to do Avodah Zara as well.(Feel free to get into a discussion here about peer pressure, when are we influenced by our environments and when not, how do you balance being in an environment where people around you have different values {public school, secular college, a rougher chevra}  and maintaining your values and individuality…etc).

Goals: The chanichim will discuss that despite Shimshon’s true reason for living amongst the Pelishtim and starting up with him, he will become influenced by the end, and start giving into his ta’avot and his need for revenge. This will ultimately lead to his downfall.  The question in all of these stories is what are Shimshon’s intentions? Is he really 100% doing this as an undercover mission, or is he taking a lot of fringe benefits (women, power, strength, revenge)? Also the chanichim will discuss the difference between koach – physical strength – that Shimshon definitely has, and gevurah – spiritual strength, which it seems he lacks, and what we can learn from this about what the spiritual personality should be of a leader.

Goals: 1. The chanichim will see that in conquering the land of Israel, Hashem will provide us with miracles and help, but only if we take initiative first. All the battles fought at the beginning of Yehoshua (at the beginning of conquering the land) were a combination of miracles and teva - natural battles. Hashem, through Yehoshua, is teaching Am Israel how to fight in a natural way.2. The chanichim will see Yehoshua’s role as a ruchani and religious leader, not just as a general in battle. In all the battles that he leads and in his speeches, Yehoshua always has the same message: G-d will only help us in battle if we keep His mitzvot and the Torah.
