A recent Humans of New York article brought the fringe sect of ultra-Orthodox, anti-Zionist Jews into the spotlight. Now Noam Weissman explains the history of this tiny movement, which rejects the State of Israel and ally with its worst enemies. Noam explores why he and so many Jews are enraged by the Neturei Karta, who engage in anti-Jewish hatemongering. The Neturei Karta continue to grab outsized attention. But their story is one that touches on questions of Jewish unity, identity, and betrayal. Here are the sources used in this episode.

Alex Traiman, CEO of Jewish News Syndicate, calls in live from Israel to discuss Israel's ongoing war with Hamas and the challenges facing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Traiman discusses how Hamas's hostage-taking strategy has given the group leverage, eroded global support for Israel, and fueled propaganda that even sways Jewish communities. He argues that criticism of Netanyahu is often a proxy for anti-Israel or anti-Semitic sentiment, while Rosenberg defended Netanyahu's difficult position. Traiman highlights how U.S. Democrats, including Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton, have pressured Netanyahu to step down, contrasting that with Donald Trump's steadfast support. He rejects claims that Israel is committing genocide, pointing to efforts to limit civilian casualties despite the war's toll, and stressed that if Israel intended genocide, the death toll would be far higher. They also examined Israeli politics, noting opposition figures like Yair Lapid but suggesting Netanyahu still has strong chances in the next election despite coalition challenges. Finally, Traiman discusses U.S. Senator Marco Rubio's move to block visas for Palestinian Authority officials, framing the PA as a terrorist-supporting entity unworthy of statehood recognition.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Political correspondent Sam Sokol and tech reporter Sharon Wrobel join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As deputy foreign minister Sharren Haskel said she won't follow foreign minister and New Hope party head Gideon Sa'ar into a merger with the Likud party, Sokol discusses Haskel's position on the front lines of Israel's information battle and her concerns about Likud's representation of moderate voters. Opposition leader Yair Lapid warned of the end of Zionism if Netanyahu's coalition wins the next election, which Sokol calls Lapid's election rhetoric, consistent with how Lapid has been speaking for the last few years. Sokol analyzes rising tensions between Ashkenazi and Sephardic Haredi parties and Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee chairman Boaz Bismuth's new approach to Haredi conscription law. Hungarian low-cost airline Wizz Air plans to establish a base in Israel, notes Wrobel, offering it advantages in the Israeli air transportation market. Wrobel also discusses milk shortages in Israel due to production issues and consumer panic.

Thank you so much for checking out this week's sermon from The Four56 Church! For service times, community opportunities, sermon video, and more please visit theFour56.org.This week's discussion questions:1. Why does the translation of ekklesia in Matthew 18 make such a difference on our understanding of the text?2. What are the clues that the text is a Jewish text rather than a Christian one?3. Why is it necessary that we ask ourselves hard questions about the text?4. How does an understanding of Genesis 4 help us to better understand Matthew 18?

John 5:1-9 NIV  1 Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. 3 Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. 5 One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?”7 “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.”8 Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” 9 At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.The day on which this took place was a Sabbath,Ezekiel 47:1-9 NIV  1 The man brought me back to the entrance to the temple, and I saw water coming out from under the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was coming down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar. 2 He then brought me out through the north gate and led me around the outside to the outer gate facing east, and the water was trickling from the south side. 3 As the man went eastward with a measuring line in his hand, he measured off a thousand cubits and then led me through water that was ankle-deep. 4 He measured off another thousand cubits and led me through water that was knee-deep. He measured off another thousand and led me through water that was up to the waist. 5 He measured off another thousand, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough to swim in—a river that no one could cross. 6 He asked me, “Son of man, do you see this?” Then he led me back to the bank of the river. 7 When I arrived there, I saw a great number of trees on each side of the river. 8 He said to me, “This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah, where it enters the Dead Sea. When it empties into the sea, the salty water there becomes fresh. 9 Swarms of living creatures will live wherever the river flows. There will be large numbers of fish, because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh; so where the river flows everything will live.

Thoughts on the Bible Readings September 2nd (2 Kings 7; Lamentations 3; 1 Corinthians 16)2 Kings 7 shows us, yet again, that when the Almighty says a thing will happen - it will, no matter how seemingly impossible. The incredulous and faithless lord on whose arm the king of Israel leans states that the famine could not be ended even if Yahweh was to open windows in heaven. The language echoes Elijah's era when the windows of heaven were both shut and opened - compare Revelation 11 verses 1-6; and Malachi 3 verses 10-12. Four lepers found food in the abandoned Syrian camp. This led to the fulfilment of the prophet Elisha's word, both to the abundance and price of the food and judgment on the unbelieving lord. Once more think of how the concept is taken up in Revelation 6 verses 5-6. Just as the Corinthian letters told us of Paul's life; so, does Jeremiah's lament of his feelings in this third chapter. The main lesson of the book is introduced in verse 1 verses "I am the man that has seen sorrow". He is indeed "a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief" as our Lord Jesus Christ is so described in Isaiah 53 verses 3. However it is what this suffering servant learns through his trust in God as he in patience endures his horrendous experiences verses Hebrews 5 verses 7-9. The prophet Jeremiah likewise similarly learns verses 18-39 - carefully read these and ponder what is the message that the Almighty wants each of His suffering servants to learn and grow thereby. We are told of the benefits and purpose in suffering. We must believe though we may not understand. Our trust and faith in our Sovereign must remain unshakable as He is the One who is leading us to a place in His kingdom verses Hebrews 12 verses 5-17 meditate the marvellous grace of our God. How great is Yahweh's steadfast love (Chesed - His faithfulness)! Each sunrise reminds us. In affliction we suffer in silence - trusting that He will deliver us at the proper time. Experience through testing takes time to yield results. 1 Corinthians 16 tells us to be prepared for contributing money when we come to the Lord's Supper. The background to the starting of the collections among the Gentiles was to support their Jewish brethren who were suffering hardship due to their persecution for becoming believers in Christ Jesus and to alleviate the troubles brought by the great famine. The first day of the week was traditionally the day when the believers met to remember our Lord Jesus Christ in bread and wine. By the Jewish calendar it was after 6pm Saturday evening. Those believers who were blessed to have some money gave some of it at that time. It was done discretely that is why Paul requested preparation before they arrived at the gathering. In his final instructions the Apostle sends greetings and commends the house of Stephanos for their addiction to service of fellow believers. The letter ends with both a warning and an implied appeal, verses 22-24, "If anyone has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord come! The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen." (ESV) Contemplate our privileges in Christ - the blessings that we receive - and how we can love our Lord and live to please him now that we might graciously find a place in his kingdom.Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow at https://christadelphianvideo.org/christadelphian-daily-readings/

In this emergency episode of Ami's House, we break down the viral clip of Congressman Richie Torres on The Adam Friedland Show. Was Torres unfairly painted as cold and unfeeling, or was Adam manipulating the moment? We explore how comedy, editing, and dishonest framing may have shaped the reaction to this spectacle— and what it reveals about Jewish life in America today.This conversation is about more than a viral clip — it's about how diaspora Jews are being forced to respond in a culture increasingly hostile to Israel and Jewish identity.If you care about right-wing media, the Israel–Gaza war, antisemitism in America, and the role of Jewish pride vs. Jewish shame, this discussion will keep you thinking from start to finish.Listen to the interview here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6q6s1FYvdvGHWuhDml03Jt?si=21c35b1e636d4f7700:00–03:47 Who's Adam Friedland?03:48 — 05:19 The viral clip05:20–07:20 Gut reactions + Was Adam Friedland trolling??08:38 - 10:49 Grading Ritchie Torres' performance10:50 - 19:55 Reactions to Adam Friedland19:56 –22:11 Does Friedland REALLY not get it?22:12- 21:26 Our REAL problem with Left/Anti-Israel attitude28:25 - 29:55 Why didn't Torres SHRED Adam Friedland here?29:56– 32:14 What does this say about the Dems + Mamdani?32:14–35:32 Groupthink and pro-Israel isolation36:46–38:32 Final take: who really came out looking bad?

Former Labor MP Michael Danby has welcomed the Australian Government's decision to expel Iran's ambassador, following alleged links between Tehran's Revolutionary Guard Corps and recent attacks on Jewish institutions in Sydney and Melbourne. Danby praised ASIO and the AFP for their investigation, noting the use of local criminals to carry out anti-Semitic violence. He warned that Australia's relations with Iran are unlikely to normalise until major political change occurs within the country.

In Intergroup Conflict, Recategorization, and Identity Construction in Acts: Breaking the Cycle of Slander, Labeling and Violence (Bloomsbury, 2023) Hyun Ho Park employs social identity to create the first thorough analysis via such methodology of Acts 21:17-23:35, which contains one of the fiercest intergroup conflicts in Acts. Park's assessment allows his readers to rethink, reevaluate, and reimagine Jewish-Christian relations; teaches them how to respond to the vicious cycle of slander, labeling, and violence permeating contemporary public and private spheres; and presents a new hermeneutical cycle and describes how readers may apply it to their own sociopolitical contexts.After surveying previous studies of the text, Park first analyses Paul's welcome, questioning, and arrest, and how slandering and labeling make Paul an outsider. Park then describes how, through defending his Jewish identity and the Way, Paul nuances his public image and re-categorizes himself and the Way as part of the people of God. When Paul identifies himself as a Roman and later a Pharisee, Park examines Luke's ambivalent attitude toward Rome and the Pharisees, and assesses how Paul escapes dangerous situations by claiming different social identities at different times.Finally, he discloses the vicious cycle of slander, labeling, and violence not only against the Way but also against the Jews and challenges the discursive process of identity construction through intergroup conflict with an out-group, especially the proximate “Other.” Furthermore, he demonstrates how the relevance of such scholarship is not limited to Lukan studies or even biblical studies in general; the frequent use of slander, labeling, and violence in the politics of the United States and other polarized countries around the globe demands new ways of looking at intergroup relations, and Park's argument meets the needs of those seeking a new perspective on contemporary political discord. Hyun Ho Park is Associate Pastor of the First United Methodist Church of Yuba City, California and Editor-in-Chief of the Asian American Theological Forum. Jonathon Lookadoo is Associate Professor at the Presbyterian University and Theological Seminary in Seoul, South Korea. While his interests range widely over the world of early Christianity, he is the author of books on the Epistle of Barnabas, Ignatius of Antioch, and the Shepherd of Hermas, including The Christology of Ignatius of Antioch (Cascade, 2023).

"From the Frontlines" is an ADL podcast which brings listeners to the frontline in the battle against antisemitism and hate through conversations with ADL staff who are living that battle every day. If you're a Jewish parent, student, or community member, you've probably wondered whether you are protected where you live or where your kids go to school. With antisemitic incidents at historic highs, we can't afford to fight blind. We need to know exactly where the policy protections are strong and where they're worryingly weak. For the first time, we now have those answers. ADL has just launched the Jewish Policy Index - a groundbreaking tool that systematically maps and assesses policies affecting Jewish communities across the United States. Which states have robust hate crime laws? Which states have adopted the so-called IHRA working definition of antisemitism? Which jurisdictions are leaving Jewish communities vulnerable through weak or non-existent protections? This isn't just about data collection; it's about identifying where we need to fight for stronger protections and where we can build on existing successes. To tell us how this game-changing resource works and what it reveals about the state of policy protections for Jewish Americans, this edition of "From the Frontlines" featured Danny Barefoot. He is ADL's Senior Director for its new Ratings and Assessments Institute. Danny leads the team responsible for creating this unprecedented nationwide policy tracking system. To see the results of ADL's Jewish Policy Index and to use its interactive tools, visit https://www.adl.org/jpi. This conversation was recorded in August 2025.

In Intergroup Conflict, Recategorization, and Identity Construction in Acts: Breaking the Cycle of Slander, Labeling and Violence (Bloomsbury, 2023) Hyun Ho Park employs social identity to create the first thorough analysis via such methodology of Acts 21:17-23:35, which contains one of the fiercest intergroup conflicts in Acts. Park's assessment allows his readers to rethink, reevaluate, and reimagine Jewish-Christian relations; teaches them how to respond to the vicious cycle of slander, labeling, and violence permeating contemporary public and private spheres; and presents a new hermeneutical cycle and describes how readers may apply it to their own sociopolitical contexts.After surveying previous studies of the text, Park first analyses Paul's welcome, questioning, and arrest, and how slandering and labeling make Paul an outsider. Park then describes how, through defending his Jewish identity and the Way, Paul nuances his public image and re-categorizes himself and the Way as part of the people of God. When Paul identifies himself as a Roman and later a Pharisee, Park examines Luke's ambivalent attitude toward Rome and the Pharisees, and assesses how Paul escapes dangerous situations by claiming different social identities at different times.Finally, he discloses the vicious cycle of slander, labeling, and violence not only against the Way but also against the Jews and challenges the discursive process of identity construction through intergroup conflict with an out-group, especially the proximate “Other.” Furthermore, he demonstrates how the relevance of such scholarship is not limited to Lukan studies or even biblical studies in general; the frequent use of slander, labeling, and violence in the politics of the United States and other polarized countries around the globe demands new ways of looking at intergroup relations, and Park's argument meets the needs of those seeking a new perspective on contemporary political discord. Hyun Ho Park is Associate Pastor of the First United Methodist Church of Yuba City, California and Editor-in-Chief of the Asian American Theological Forum. Jonathon Lookadoo is Associate Professor at the Presbyterian University and Theological Seminary in Seoul, South Korea. While his interests range widely over the world of early Christianity, he is the author of books on the Epistle of Barnabas, Ignatius of Antioch, and the Shepherd of Hermas, including The Christology of Ignatius of Antioch (Cascade, 2023).

The recent passing of Rabbi Berel Wein (1934-2025) is an opportunity to reflect on the Jewish world in which he grew up and later had such a wide impact. A child of Lithuanian immigrants, he grew up at a crossroads of American Jewish history. The children of the immigrant generation were overwhelmingly secularizing, and yet he emerged from the yeshiva in Chicago with a deep connection to his parents and teachers world of prewar Lithuania. In serving as a bridge between generations, he greatly amplified the role of Jewish history and continuity in transmitting the values of the past to future generations.

Daily Study: Many people online are predicting the rapture will happen on September 23rd or 24th, often linking it to the Jewish holiday Rosh Hashanah, also called the Feast of Trumpets, but the Bible makes it clear that no one knows the day or the hour of Christ's return—not even the angels or Jesus Himself. Scripture teaches that His coming will be sudden, like a thief in the night, catching unbelievers off guard but not surprising believers, since we know He promised to return. God does not reveal the exact time because He wants His people to live ready every day, faithfully and expectantly, rather than waiting until the last moment. For Christians, the rapture is not something to fear but something to look forward to with joy, as it fulfills God's promise to His people.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. The government's weekly cabinet meeting is held in a secure location on Sunday after the IDF acknowledged it struck and killed the prime minister of Yemen’s Houthi government and several other ministers, and the Houthis have pledged to retaliate, says Berman. Following a Channel 12 report that three of Israel's top security officials are expected to argue that Israel should accept the current hostage deal that releases only some of the hostages, Berman believes Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will continue to demand a comprehensive deal that releases all hostages, as he has been consistently calling for that and is backed by US President Donald Trump. Berman discusses his interview in Gaza with the IDF's 7th Armored Brigade, a combat team that lost six hostages, two of whom are still alive and four whose bodies are held by Hamas. The brigade is working to take down buildings controlled by Hamas to reach the underground tunnels. The current diplomatic situation revolving around the prime minister's recent statement recognizing the Armenian genocide committed by the Ottoman Empire in the early 20th century was presumably coordinated by Netanyahu with the Foreign Ministry, says Berman, possibly as a way of getting back at Turkey for its aggressive measures taken against Israel throughout the war.

Do our moral obligations change when we go to war? In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Rabbi Dr. Meesh Hammer-Kossoy explore Parshat Ki Teitzei and its surprising focus on the ethics of war. From the command to remember Amalek to laws about captives, newlyweds, and the holiness of the military camp, they show how the Torah insists that moral and spiritual responsibilities do not disappear in times of conflict. Even in war, Jewish law demands restraint, humanity, and awareness of God's presence. This week's episode is generously sponsored by Emily Simon, in honor of all Israelis who have endured so much since October 7, 2023. May the coming year bring peace and harmony to their lives.

Join us as we explore the significance of charity within Judaism, guided by Chapter 34 of the concise code of Jewish law. We examine the scriptural foundations of the mitzvah of giving, focusing on the dual commandment to care for the Jewish community and the broader world. Listen in as we discuss the ethical considerations of giving, especially when authenticity is uncertain, and share practical tips like offering food instead of money to those in need. We also reflect on the historical and spiritual ties to Abraham's legacy, emphasizing the role of compassion in Jewish charitable practice.In our discussion, we uncover the unique and inspiring world of gemachs—community-based lending services that exemplify the Jewish ethos of support and sharing. From baby bris outfits to wedding gowns, these creative initiatives demonstrate the strength and empathy within Jewish communities. A heartfelt personal story highlights the profound impact of such organizations in times of need, while we ponder the potential for expanding these models beyond the Jewish community. The idea of a national website connecting people to these invaluable resources is contemplated, aiming to broaden access to community care.We further explore the concepts of tithing and charity, distinguishing their roots and significance within Jewish tradition. The principle of giving a tithe, or 10% of one's earnings, is discussed alongside the importance of aligning generosity with divine intentions. Stories of immense fundraising efforts and the logistics of supporting large communities highlight the power of collective giving. As we share insights and anecdotes, we emphasize the moral duty to support those in need and reflect on how our resources can fulfill a higher purpose.To have your questions featured on the Ask Away series, please submit your questions at askaway@torchweb.org_____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #56) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!
