Famed Egyptologist, film maker, author of “Riddle of the Exodus,” noted Noahide Jim Long joins Rabbi Richman and Yitzchak Reuven in the studio this week for a lively discussion on the universal dimensions of Elul and the ramifications of the “King in the Field” for the whole world.
As the rumblings of war dominate the news in Israel and the shofar-blasts of Elul herald the war against the Evil Inclination, this week’s Torah portion of Ki Tetzei begins and ends with the concept of war: From the scenario of the “captive woman” to the attack of Amalek. What’s the connection between the beginning and the end? What is Amalek’s secret weapon, and how can Elul neutralize it? Tune in to this week’s Temple Talk for answers!
