A fierce critique of the Jewish establishment, a personal reckoning with American Jewish identity, and a progressive take on Israel that refuses easy answers – the book was bound to provoke strong reactions. But no one expected his Brooklyn launch event to be canceled at the last minute because his guest, a Reform rabbi, was a Zionist. In this episode, Leifer joins Tamarto unpack that surreal moment and the deeper tensions it exposed.

Kol Ramahparsha talk Vayeshev 5785 2024Parashat Va-yeshev [Genesis 37:1-40:23] begins the longest extended narrative in the Book of Genesis, the Joseph story. The parashah begins with a 17-year-old Joseph relating to his family two dreams he has had, which infuriate his brothers. When his father asks Joseph to go see how his brothers are doing pasturing the sheep, Joseph ends up being sold into slavrey. Chapter 38 is an interlude of sorts, the story of Judah and Tamar. It is perhaps intended to provide a comeuppance for Judah’s role in the sale of Joseph. Chapter 39 resumes the Joseph story. Joseph is now in Egypt. Everything he...2025-01-0236 min

Shalom World - Voyage (Book of Revelation & Genesis)Ep 36 - Joseph’s Early Days in EgyptIrish Scripture Scholar Frances Hogan explores the continuation of Joseph's story in Chapter 37 of the Book of Genesis, where he is sold into Egypt by his brothers. This emphasizes that even the chosen people are subject to the consequences of their actions, revealing their imperfections and the universal need for salvation. While Reuben expresses genuine love and concern upon discovering Joseph's disappearance, the other brothers deceive their father Jacob by fabricating a story about Joseph's demise, highlighting the irony of their deceitful actions mirroring Jacob's past deception.
In Chapter 38, the focus shifts to the story of Judah...2023-06-2642 min

Parashat Va-yeshev [Genesis 37-40] is the beginning of the Joseph story, the longest extended narrative in the Book of Genesis. So even though, properly speaking, Joseph is not a patriarch, he is not a recipient of the covenant with its twofold promise of land and numerous descendants conveyed directly by God, he is the subject of the longest story in the Book.

The CJN Daily with Ellin BessnerThis Remembrance Day, one Canadian soldier reflects on her mission to AfghanistanAfter 9/11, Canada sent 40,000 troops to Afghanistan. One of those was Tamar Freeman. She spent 25 years in the military, including a deployment in 2006 to the Central Asian country, where she treated Canadian troops and Afghan women and children who suffered burns and abuse.
When she arrived, insurgents were setting off roadside bombs; while Taliban rockets were routinely killing Western soliders. She lost friends and colleagues in the half-year she spent there, and endured strange looks from Afghan nationals who were surprised to see a short, blonde-haired female soldier—and they didn't even know she was Jewish.

Beit Halimoud GrenobleChabbat VayechevChers amis,
Le Speed Thora de ce Chabbat Vayechev est du Rav Tsvi Yehouda Edelstein, fils de Rav Guerchon Edelstein ( Roch Yechiva Poniovitch. Bné Brak) contemporain et Roch Yechiva de Orh’ot Thora.
Il s’interroge sur l’ambiguïté des rapports entre Yehouda et Tamar et le refus de cette dernière de faire valoir ses droits malgré l’erreur de Yehouda.
Il analyse finement les rapports de responsabilité entre “l’agresseur” et la” victime” au travers de la notion de Rodef.
Shabbat shalom et H'anouka Sameah'

Spiritual Life and Leadership17. Not Ashamed of Sinners, Matthew 1:1-17Send me a text! I’d love to know what you're thinking!The genealogy of Jesus in Matthew 1:1-17 is so much more than a list of Jesus’ ancestors. It is the beginning of the good news about Jesus. Matthew does something quite extraordinary with the inclusion of the four women in the genealogy of Jesus–not because he included women, but because of who the women are. Right from the beginning, Matthew makes it clear who is included in the story of Jesus and that Jesus is not ashamed of people the world tends to sideline.2018-12-1727 min
