Visiting Hebron, one of the first impressions that hits like a sucker-punch to the stomach is of a ghost town.

Palestinian doors are welded shut and porches are caged in, ostensibly to protect...

Excerpt from Here All Along: Finding Meaning, Spirituality, and a Deeper Connection to Life – in Judaism (After Finally Choosing to Look There)

CIW’s Fair Food Program beautifully illustrates Deuteronomy’s call of zachor, to remember to push back against those who oppress the rights of others.

It’s not clear if the affliction is truly physical, as Leviticus seems to indicate, or if it’s a physical manifestation of...
