Shrine of Genesis

“The Yishai Fleisher Show” with host Yishai Fleisher, and guests Tomer Ohayon, Ben Bresky and Brian Schrauger

Yishai is on IDF guard duty again, and discusses the 10-front war and the three ways to understand the phrase, “from the river to the sea.” Tomer Ohayon arrived in Israel for reserve duty but left his family back on shlichut in New Jersey. Ben Bresky talks about the legendary Uzi submachine gun and its inventor. Then, Brian Schrauger discusses the dangerous narrative of “Christ at the Checkpoint.” And finally, the end of the book of Genesis and why Jacob was adamant about being buried in the Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron.

Produced by Yishai Fleisher and the Land of Israel network, and part of JNS’s library, “The Yishai Fleisher Show” is a popular English-language podcast exploring Israeli life, politics and Jewish thought.

Drawing on his experience as a journalist, legal and biblical scholar, Israel Defense Forces soldier and spokesman for the Jewish Community of Hebron, Fleisher sheds light on everything from global and Middle East news to weekly Bible/Torah study, health, family, and, of course, the amazing rebirth of Israel.
