“My heart is broken for the Jewish people, and I want to help in any way that I can.”These words, from an elderly farmer in America, longing to help the people of Israel—God's people—in their time of need inspired Rabbi Daniel Korobkin when he heard them recently. As the rabbi tells Yael Eckstein in this podcast conversation, “it shook so many of us so deeply… it was moving to see this kind of care.”This friendship and shared faith—this fellowship—between Christians and Jews is what drew Rabbi Korobkin to The Fellowship—the decades of bridges built by Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, of blessed memory, and continued today. Since 2021, Rabbi Korobkin has served on the board of IFCJ Canada, where he also serves as Senior Rabbi for Beth Avraham Yoseph of Toronto.Being born and raised in the U.S.—where he also taught and served congregations before moving north—as well as learning from his mother's experiences surviving the Holocaust as a young girl on one of the kindertransports has positioned Rabbi Korobkin to understand and appreciate not only The Fellowship's supporters, but so many of the Jewish people in need we help.And it is this life of experiences—from the U.S. to Canada, from synagogue to soup kitchen, from America to Israel—that Rabbi Korobkin shares with Yael in this inspiring conversation on shared faith, on what friendship and support Israel today, and how The Fellowship and our friends around the world are showing the Jewish people that they might be, as Balaam says in the Book of Numbers, “a solitary nation”—but while they are “alone, they're not lonely.”For more information on today's episode visit mybiblicalroots.org.

This week, in honor of International Woman’s Day, The Times of Israel's Amanda Borschel-Dan spoke with Yael Eckstein, the 36-year-old head of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. The organization was founded in 1983 by her father, Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, but since his sudden death a year ago, Yael has picked up the reins. Yechiel was a charismatic visionary — an Orthodox Jewish rabbi who faced down suspicion in his own community to bring Jews and Christian closer. And while the foundation brings in over $125 million a year, for Yael it’s not the sum that counts, rather the support for Israel that she believes is growing in the Christian community. This support has, she says, led to the recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital by the US.
