Heroism & Brotherhood in the Lost World of Jewish Life in Egypt (Part 1)

tell a friend

(((CLICK BELOW TO HEAR AUDIO)))

Yishai is joined by Rachamim Clement Soffer, who describes his personal experience of the destruction of the ancient Jewish community in Egypt.  Rachamim lived an idyllic life as a young teenager in Egypt until dark and difficult times descended on his world. He was evicted from Egypt at the age of 15 because he was helping the effort to rescue Jews from ghettos slated for annihilation. Years later, Rachamim (Clement) was able to use his political connections in the American government to save the Jewish cemetery in Egypt. Be sure to listen to this touching and inspiring segment (and the continuation in segment #4)

Every morning I look for a good, clean “Old Jews Telling Jokes” joke to share with you, and most mornings I give up after a few minutes, because most of the jokes being told by these old Jews just don’t belong in a fine, Orthodox website. This one, thank God, is clean. Incidentally, I don’t [...]

Who’s on First? Rabbi Steven Schwartz as “Father Mulcahy” and The Most Interesting Jewish Man in the World (Cantor Thom King) give a Purim version of a Hebrew Lesson- adapted from Rabbi Jack Moline. The acting could get better, but the jokes are well thought out. Worth the 5 minutes!

Never mind his political agenda — while I can’t speak for anyone else, I personally could not endorse the transfer of Arabs any more than I would the transfer of Jews (although it’s interesting how those [...]

Or, at least, it’s showing a hairy creature knocking over a lawn chair and taking a few sips from the pool water. Now, you may ask, what’s Jewish about Bigfoot? The answer is that there’s also a security sound recording of the same creature saying She’hakol.

A European reporter asked South African MP Kenneth Meshoe to confirm that Israel is just aqs racist as his South Africa used to be under the Apartheid Laws. And the learned MP let him have it. Priceless. Thank you, 12Tribe Films for the link.
