Molly Livingstone joins Eve Harow for a serious conversation about comedy. Israel's surreality is fertile ground for utilizing humor as a major coping method but is also an effective way to build bridges and foster mutual understanding. Molly's dream is to one day open a Jewish Comedy Center in Jerusalem; for now this mother of 4 with a husband in reserve duty is literally getting her jollies wherever she can. Be in touch with her. Your life will be brighter for it.

Reserve your spot for the premiere of War of Redemption: https://thelandofisrael.com/war-of-redemption/ This week on the Land of Israel Guys podcast, Ari and Jeremy along with The Israel Guys, take a deeper look at why Judea and Samaria remain at the center of Israel's modern story, much as they were in the days of King David. As farms continue to spread across the biblical heartland at a historic pace, they discuss how agriculture has become one of the most important frontiers in securing and developing the land of Israel. Against the backdrop of a rapidly growing Jerusalem, the conversation explores some of the most significant issues facing the nation today: the imprisonment of an IDF soldier, the expansion of Israel's farm movement, cultural and spiritual challenges within Israeli society, and the prophetic vision of redemption that continues to inspire millions around the world. The episode also features the announcement of a new documentary, War of Redemption, which tells the story of the men and women living on the front lines of Israel's biblical heartland. As Israel's defense industry reaches record-breaking levels, Ari and Jeremy reflect on the prophetic promise of a future in which swords are turned into plowshares and the Torah goes forth from Zion. Subscribe for weekly conversations from Jerusalem, Judea, and Samaria, featuring current events, biblical insights, and on-the-ground perspectives from the Land of Israel.

Author and journalist Eric Rozenman joins Eve Harow to discuss his newest book, the David Discovery. It's a factionalized account of where a future messiah might be hiding in plain sight and the historical events that got him this far. They share thoughts on current events as well, the lack of truth seeking and the speed at which it's all occurring. A Novel of the Near Future is the subtitle. How near is the big question.

Join the Land of Israel Fellowship and study Tanach with us live from the hills of Judea: https://thelandofisrael.com/membership-tiers In 1 Samuel 10, Saul is secretly anointed as Israel's first king. Ari Abramowitz and Jeremy Gimpel explore Saul's transformation, his unexpected rise to leadership, and the inner struggles that foreshadow his downfall. Why was Saul chosen? What does it mean to be "transformed into another man"? And why does he hide when the moment comes to accept his destiny? This chapter reveals the tension between divine calling and human hesitation—a struggle familiar to all of us.

Can two people look at the same reality and see completely different worlds? In this week's Land of Israel Fellowship, Ari Abramowitz and Jeremy Gimpel explore the Torah portions of Beha'alotcha and Shelach, uncovering the profound connection between the Menorah's light and the spies' report from the Promised Land. Why did ten spies see giants and defeat while Caleb and Joshua saw opportunity and redemption? What does it mean to see the world with Mashiach Eyes? Discover how faith, gratitude, and God's perspective can transform fear into purpose and darkness into light. Join us for prayer, Torah study, encouragement, and a powerful message about Israel, truth, and spiritual vision in these historic times.

Dr. Aharon Tabgher is co-directing the current archaeological dig at Tel Shilo with Dr. Scott Stripling. It's the fourth official expedition and is revealing so much. He speaks with Eve Harow on the challenges and professional price of excavating in Samaria and also some the competing visions in how to establish new neighborhoods and communities in our ancient/modern land. Are our villages just suburbs or do we integrate agriculture, animal husbandry and ancient sites within the planning? Dr. Tabgher has organized the second international conference on Judea and Samaria scheduled for June 17-18 in Jerusalem. Sign up and be amazed at how much research is focused on the Biblical heartland. (https://arch-js.co.il/)

Eve Harow so enjoyed her trip to the national parks of the American southwest and Alaska. She shares thoughts on the beauty of Hashem's world; grief on the ongoing toll of this war and anticipation of the upcoming joyous holiday of Shavuot. The usual eclectic mix of Rejuvenation.

In this powerful episode of the Land of Israel Fellowship, Ari Abramowitz, Jeremy Gimpel, and Tehila Gimpel come together for a deeply timely Torah conversation as we approach Shavuot — the Festival of Receiving the Torah. This week's live Fellowship explores the spiritual meaning of Shavuot, the prophetic connection between King David and Mount Sinai, and the unfolding story of redemption in the Land of Israel today. From Jerusalem Day to Shavuot, from ancient prophecy to modern headlines, this teaching reveals how Biblical patterns continue to shape our generation. Jeremy Gimpel shares a profound Torah insight on King Saul and King David, and how the transition between these two forms of leadership reflects deeper spiritual movements happening in Israel today. He connects these themes to the Book of Samuel, Mashiach ben Yosef and Mashiach ben David, and the idea that the Prophets are not just history — they are unfolding prophecy. Ari Abramowitz offers a moving dvar Torah connecting the wilderness of Sinai, the Book of Ruth, and the wheat fields of Judea. His teaching reveals how the journey from Midbar to Mount Sinai to Beit Lechem is one continuous story of return, covenant, and redemption still unfolding in our generation. Tehila Gimpel brings a powerful reflection on Shavuot and the counting of the Omer, explaining that the preparation for receiving Torah is not passive but transformational. Shavuot, she teaches, is not only about receiving Torah — but becoming the kind of vessel that can receive it, living with the spirit of “Naaseh V'Nishma.” Together, this episode weaves Scripture, prophecy, prayer, and modern Israel into one living message: the story of redemption is still being written.

Full recording of the Land of Israel Fellowship, captured live on Sunday, May 3rd, 2026, on the Torah portion of Emor. A serene Shabbat in the Judean Desert is suddenly interrupted by a moment that reflects the reality of life in Israel today where even a distant paraglider can trigger memories of October 7th and the ongoing war. Beneath the tension and uncertainty, a deeper spiritual story is unfolding. This episode explores the inner dimension of the times we're living through, and how the mitzvah of the Counting of the Omer offers a path to transformation, clarity, and connection with Hashem. In this teaching: A personal story that captures the emotional reality of Israel right now The lasting impact of October 7th and the ongoing multi-front war Why counting the Omer is described as “for yourselves” The connection between the Manna in the wilderness and the Omer offering Gratitude as the foundation for spiritual growth and receiving the Torah The journey from Passover (freedom) to Shavuot (purpose) The 7 Divine attributes and a practical framework for inner refinement This is more than a weekly teaching—it's a guide for navigating uncertainty with faith, and for using this sacred time of the Omer to grow into who you're meant to be. As Israel faces challenges from every direction, this episode offers a deeper lens into the spiritual process shaping the nation and each of us.

In this episode of the Land of Israel Fellowship, Ari Abramowitz and Jeremy Gimpel explore the powerful spiritual journey between Achrei Mot and Kedoshim, two Torah portions that challenge us to confront who we are and who we're meant to become. Recorded during the days of the Counting of the Omer, this conversation weaves together personal stories, ancient wisdom, and present-day life in Israel. Ari shares a simple yet profound parenting moment that opens the door to a much deeper discussion: how boundaries, reverence, and trust shape not only our families but our relationship with God. Together, we explore: The deeper meaning of the scapegoat (Azazel) and spiritual release Why true growth requires both honesty and letting go What it means to “be holy” in everyday life (Kedoshim Tihyu) How to move from spiritual freedom to spiritual responsibility Letting go of resentment and learning to love others fullyTrusting God's plan even when life doesn't make sense Set against the backdrop of modern-day Israel, this episode also reflects on faith during uncertain times, the nearness of redemption, and how to prepare ourselves spiritually for Shavuot, the re-receiving of the Torah. Whether you're on a spiritual journey, exploring the Bible more deeply, or seeking meaning in today's complex world, this conversation offers clarity, strength, and inspiration.
