    Yom HaZikaron - Yosef Guedalia hy"d

    Yom HaZikaron - Yosef Guedalia hy"d

    In this deeply moving episode of the Koren Podcast, Al Regel Ahat, we have the honor of sitting down with David, Asher, and Charlie Guedalia, as they share the remarkable story of their beloved son and brother, Yosef.
    Yosef's name has become synonymous with courage, sacrifice, and heroism. On that fateful day in Kfar Aza, Yosef fearlessly put himself in harm's way to save the lives of countless others. His selfless act of bravery serves as a shining example of the unwavering spirit of the Jewish people.
    As we approach Yom HaZikaron, a time of solemn reflection and remembrance, Yosef's memory burns brightly in our hearts. His legacy reminds us of the profound depths of love and sacrifice that define our nation.
    Throughout the episode, David, Asher, and Charlie share intimate stories of Yosef's life, his unwavering commitment to his family, to Judaism and learning Torah, and to his beloved wife Sinai. Their heartfelt words paint a poignant picture of a true hero, whose spirit continues to inspire and uplift us all.
    Join us as we honor the memory of Yosef Geudalia, a beacon of light in the darkness, and celebrate the remarkable legacy he leaves behind.

    Rabbi Daniel Feldman

    Rabbi Daniel Feldman

    Have you ever wondered why sometimes halakha seems immovable but other times it seems flexible and full of workarounds? 
    We can't own hametz on Pesah so we just sell it to a non-Jew. First borns must fast on erev-Pesah, just make a siyum!
    Rabbi Daniel Feldman explores these topics and more in his new book Letter and Spirit: Evasions, Avoidance, and Workarounds in the Halakhic System. But these aren't just distinct mechanisms to make a halakhic lifestyle easier, they are part of a broader and beautiful framework for a Jew to connect with Hashem.
    Listen now as Rabbi Feldman share his Torah al regel ahat!
