In the final episode (way #48) of the 48 Ways series during the Omer, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe teaches Valomer Davar B'Shem Omro — “say things in the name of its source” (proper attribution). Giving credit where it is due is a fundamental Torah principle that honors truth, prevents plagiarism, and elevates the value of the wisdom being shared. Rabbi Wolbe stresses that Torah and life wisdom belong to everyone, but we must acknowledge the source rather than claiming it as our own.

He attributes the entire series to Rabbi Noah Weinberg, who popularized the 48 Ways and made them practical and accessible. Rabbi Wolbe encourages listeners to review, internalize, and continue growing with these tools, closing with “Chazak, chazak, v’nitchazek” and the traditional Talmudic farewell: we will return to the material, and it will return to us. The 48 Ways are practical tools for a magnificent, pleasure-filled life connected to Hashem.
