The red heifer and the ‘Biblical Highway’

“The Yishai Fleisher Show” with host Yishai Fleisher and guests Ambassador David Friedman, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, Byron Stinson, Rabbi Shimshon Nadel and Ben Bresky

On this week’s episode of “The Yishai Fleisher Show,” Yishai is in Washington for a showing of Ambassador David Friedman and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo‘s new film “Route 60: The Biblical Highway.” Rabbi Shmuley Boteach and Friedman join Yishai at the Museum of the Bible for the premiere.

But first: Byron Stinson has a passion for bringing red heifers to Israel! Plus: Ben Bresky and Rabbi Shimshon Nadel discuss the Rosh Hashanah experience.

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, IDF soldier and spokesman for the Jewish Community of Hebron, Yishai 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.

Yishai Fleisher is the international spokesman for the Jewish community of Hebron and an advisor to Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.
