121 - Professor Benjamin Ish-Shalom

April 24, 2019

Passover celebrates the Jews becoming a nation. What does that nation stand for? Join us for a discussion with Professor Benjamin Ish-Shalom. First, he makes his case that our values must define our national identity. Then he goes through actual case studies of military ethical dilemmas that he and his staff have dealt with at Beit Morasha. Patient and curious listeners will be rewarded ad inspired. If Passover is the festival of freedom, Professor Ish-Shalom reminds us that we are free to become out best selves. Enjoy!
