SUBTITLES IN ENGLISH AND IN HEBREW

Baruch HaShem, what a way to kick off a new series.

My two favorite rabbis—Rabbi Manis Friedman and Rabbi Oury Cherki—sit together and discuss a wide range of topics they both have dealt extensively in, whether it's Jewish universalism, the war in Israel, teshuva, Judeo-Islamic relations and more.

Stay tuned, part two comes out next week! BeH
