    LIVE! Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis KBE

    LIVE! Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis KBE

     This episode of the Koren Podcast was recorded in front of a live audience! Alex and Aryeh were back on the road, this time in London as part of the Mizrachi UK Weekend of Inspiration, one of the biggest events in the Religious Zionist calendar in Europe.
    We were honored, or rather "honoured", to be joined by the Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth, Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis KBE.
    Rabbi Mirvis has served as Chief Rabbi since 2013 before which he was Mara DeAtra of Finchley United Synagogue (Kinloss). 
    Listen now as we ask Rabbi Mirvis to teach us the whole Torah al regel ahat - standing on one leg LIVE at the Mizrachi UK Day of Inspiration. 
    Special thanks to Rabbi Andrew Shaw and David Reuben of Mizrachi UK, and Mark Frazer, and Michelle Bauernfreund from the Office of the Chief Rabbi.

    Rena Quint

    Rena Quint

    It was a profound privilege to be invited into the home of Holocaust survivor Rena Quint to hear her story.
    We are truly grateful that Rena allowed us to record her story for a special episode of the Kore Podcast Al Regal Ahat for Yom HaShoah 2023.
    Rena was born in Freida Lichtenstein in Pietrokow, Poland in 1936. By age 3 she was imprisoned in the Pietrokow Ghetto and by age 6 was a prisoner in Bergen-Belsen. It was thanks to the women she has come to call her many mothers that she was able to survive, was brought to New York, and eventually adopted by Jacob and Leah Globe.
    Now the mother of 4 children, grandmother to 22, and great-grandmother to (as of two weeks ago) 44. Rena lives in Jerusalem and tells her story to thousands every year. 
    Rena's book A Daughter of Many Mothers: Her Horrific Childhood and Wonderful Life tells her story and how she came to find evidence of the life she only suspected she had.

    Yaakov Katz

    Yaakov Katz

    We're back again standing on one leg!This week, Aryeh and Alex are joined by Yaakov Katz.
    Yaakov has served as the editor-in-chief of the JPost for seven years and recently announced his intention to step down as editor. He has worked as a journalist, focusing on security and defense for several years, and was previously an advisor to Naftali Bennett.
    This episode was recorded at the end of January 2023 but Yaakov's message that we should not shy away from ideas that challenge us is one that can only serve to help us grow as individuals, as zionists, as a country, and as a people.

Koren at its best

Mazel Tov- Kol HaKavod ( well done) to the guys at Koreen for this podcast where the foremost Jewish thinkers of today grapple with the questions of today.
This podcast gives us a different outlook on the world.
Each episode is a fascinating listen. It is important to give these Modern Jewish Thinkers a space to develop their ideas and express them to us all
Please continue
