Then, Malkah Fleisher on If Not Now in the NYTimes on the AJC’s study on whether American Jews and Israeli Jews are brothers or cousins.

The Book of Numbers starts with the Tribes of Israel arranged precisely around the Tabernacle – this mirrored how the sons of Jacob carried his coffin to the Land of Israel.

Then, Malkah Fleisher on El Al’s new flights to Tokyo and Germany standing against BDS.

Eurovision – on the one hand, great PR for a normal Israel, but on the other hand, a festival of Hedonism in the Holy Land. So which one is it? Rav Mike Feuer joins Rabbi Yishai to discuss if Israel is to influence or be influenced – or both. Then, Malkah Fleisher on Lag BaOmer and on the heat!

Why did one misfit curse the name of God? Why did one stickler give him a hard time for not fitting in? Rav Mike Feuer joins Rabbi Yishai to tackle the challenging story of the blasphemer. Then Malkah Fleisher on the Eurovision, Madonna’s arrival in Israel, and the advantage of Shoresh sandals!

If you want to be a mentch you can’t consume it all and do just want your inclination pleases! Rav Mike Feuer rejoins Rabbi Yishai for a discussion of the Torah portions of Acharie Mot and Kedoshim and together get ready for the big holiday of Israeli independence.

Yishai and family are at Neve Ilan celebrating the Holiday of Liberation with a visit to Hebron and the Priestly Blessing in Jerusalem. Join Yishai as he talks with a group of Christadelphians – non-Jewish lovers of Israel. Happy Pesach!

Yishai is baking matzo in Beit El! He intro’s a lesson of a model Passover Seder by the preeminent Rabbi Eli Mansour.
