Yosef Lindell Lehrhaus, Apr. 3, 2025 “… we focus on the story on Seder night precisely because we are now in exile and telling about the miracles of the Exodus gives us hope for the future.” On Seder night, we tell our national story. The Haggadah voices the Jewish tale of deliverance—from slavery to freedom, from […]

Shiela Tulier Keiter Jewish Review of Books, Apr. 2, 2025 “Whose idea was it to read the book in shul? And why don’t Sephardim, who also inherited the allegorical reading, read Song of Songs on Passover?” Whose idea was it to read the Song of Songs on Shabbat Chol Hamoed, the Sabbath that falls during […]
Robert Warren 18Forty, Apr. 3, 2025 “If in my youth Judaism seemed ancient and powerful, in my young adulthood Judaism was almost anachronistic.” I’m eight years old, and I push open the heavy front door of my grandparent’s house and squint into the darkness of the yard. I wonder if Elijah the Prophet will show […]
Rabbi Dr. Stuart Halpern Jewish Journal, Mar. 26, 2025 “In the midrashim, the Egyptian sequence of negative items led to their doom, but ‘Dayenu’ leads their Israelite adversaries in the opposite direction, to salvation and fulfillment. “ If we could figure out the origin of everyone’s favorite Passover song, it would be enough. The development of […]

Shachar Kleiman Israel Hayom, Mar. 13, 2025 “This imaginary entity is weaker than people think. With Allah’s help, your support, and the backing of our nation, we are capable of uprooting it and removing it as soon as possible.

Melanie Phillips JNS, Apr. 3, 2025 “The people protesting on the streets are the same people who, on Oct. 7, poured into Israel across the shattered border fence behind the Hamas stormtroopers and themselves took part in that barbaric orgy of rape, slaughter and kidnapping.” It is striking, if unsurprising, that the demonstrations against Hamas […]
Brendon O’Neill Spiked, Apr. 8, 2025 “Hamas are basically just Jew exterminators, that’s their only real purpose, they don’t correct the environment for [their] citizens’, he says. So, yeah, maybe we need something new, ‘to end the troubles’.” Johnny Rotten is revolting again. This time it’s not the monarchy or the music industry the sexagenarian […]
Pamela Paresky and Dan Schueftan Quillette, Apr. 2, 2025 “Hamas believed it could win—not because it was stronger, but because Gaza had become the most fortified place in history. Fortified not just with missiles and tunnels, but with CNN, The New York Times, the BBC, the courts in The Hague, Amnesty International—every institution dominated by the autocratic, dictatorial, […]

Dario Sabagh The New Arab, Apr. 7, 2025 “Despite tough rhetoric, both sides will want to engage and reach an agreement. But their positions on key issues remain far apart, making it difficult.” US President Donald Trump is looking to revive talks with Iran to secure a nuclear deal that would dissuade Tehran from potentially developing nuclear […]
Amira El-Fekki Newsweek, Apr. 8, 2025 “Tehran has been escalating its nuclear activities, with the International Atomic Energy Agency warning that Iran’s recent enrichment levels are nearing bomb-grade — much higher than is needed for most power generating reactors.” The United States and Iran are preparing for talks on Tehran’s nuclear program in Oman to avert a […]
Seth J. Frantzman Jerusalem Post, Apr. 7, 2025 “This is a state within a state of more than 100,000 men who are veterans of the war on ISIS.” A report from Reuters on April 7 indicates that the Iranian-backed militias in Iraq could disarm due to their fear of the Trump administration. This is a significant development. […]
Danny Zaken Israel Hayom, Apr. 9, 2025 “… the gaps appear smaller on the issue of Iran’s nuclear program and uranium enrichment – the central issue of the talks.” Three days before the scheduled start of talks between the Iranian regime and representatives of US President Donald Trump in Oman, the gaps between the two sides regarding […]
