11 Aug 2017 | 7. The Beginning of All Things | 00:16:29 | |
We begin at the beginning! With nothing, and go from there. The Book of Genesis gives us two stories of creation, but they're different. So which is the "real" story?
| |||
11 Aug 2017 | 8. Nudity! Snakes! Murder! | 00:16:09 | |
The human adventure begins. And almost comes to a crashing halt. From eating from the forbidden tree, to getting kicked out of the Garden of Eden, to lying to God, to murdering brothers, what are these first humans trying to tell us about the nature of humanity, freedom, and moral choice?
| |||
11 Aug 2017 | 9. Friends In (Actually High) Places | 00:17:38 | |
So there was a major flood, Noah built an ark, and successfully landed it back on dry land. What happened next connects today's Jews with the Armenian people across a familiar historical narrative. Plus we get the first set of seven laws to govern humanity. Nice!

We begin the story of a great adventurer: Abram, and his wife Sarai. Starting at the age of 70, Abram will travel across the known world, sell his wife as a mistress to Pharaoh, kill some kings, circumcise himself, exhibit great generosity, try to murder his own son, and buy a crucial piece of real estate. He's also the first Jew. | |||
11 Aug 2017 | 11. Sodom and Gomorrah | 00:15:08 | |

Judaism's second holiest site is the cave where Sarah and Abraham are buried. But for someone so connected to the Promised Land, Abraham still felt like a stranger.
| |||
12 Aug 2017 | 15. Isaac, the John Adams of Jewish History | 00:11:27 | |

Jacob crosses the threshold on the hero's journey, dreaming of a ladder with angels going up and down. He marries both Rachel and Leah, who then compete with each other to produce male heirs. This is what we call in Hebrew a balagan.
| |||
12 Aug 2017 | 18. Run, Jacob, Run! | 00:16:16 | |
On the run from both Laban and Esau, Jacob wrestles with a strange being, earning him the name "Israel". He arrives back in the Promised Land to build an altar to God, but tragedy strikes his beloved wife, Rachel.
| |||
12 Aug 2017 | 19. Fashion Forward…to Egypt! | 00:13:58 | |
We know from the story of Moses and the Exodus (and our recent Passover Seders) that the Israelites were slaves in Egypt. But how did they get there in the first place? It has to do with Jacob's favorite son, Joseph, his coat of many colors, his 11 jealous brothers, Pharaoh, and dreams.
| |||
12 Aug 2017 | 20. The End of an Era | 00:18:11 | |

In contrast to Herzl, Ahad Ha'Am wants "a Jewish state, and not merely a state for Jews." As the Zionist movement takes off at the turn of the century, a new branch, the Cultural Zionists, form to bring the Jewish. But events conspire to make the Zionist project more urgent.
| |||
02 Oct 2017 | 26. The New Jew | 00:20:35 | |
It's not enough just to create a new Jewish homeland. We need a New Jew. Physically strong, spiritually renewed, and connected to the land through hard physical labor. The big picture of Zionism that is emerging is that it's a movement to create an entirely new kind of Judaism for a new phase of our history. | |||
03 Dec 2017 | 27. Who Came First? | 00:24:36 | |

Today I interview Kathy Kacer and Jordana Lebowitz, who have written a book, To Look a Nazi In the Eye. It's an account of Jordana's experience attending the 2015 trial of Oskar Groening, a Nazi SS officer stationed at Auschwitz. Was he complicit in the murder of 300,000 Hungarian Jews? Is it too late for justice? And how did this experience inspire Jordana to devote herself to human rights and Holocaust education? | |||
26 Feb 2018 | 31. In the Land of Poetry | 00:20:32 | |

12 Aug 2018 | 43. You Two Need to Separate | 00:24:49 | |
