The current pandemic and unrest, rattling and demoralizing the world’s population, have created a once-in-history wake-up call. People everywhere are looking to make sense of the upheavals around us, seeking clarity and direction.
In response to this crisis, we have launched a new series: Rabbi Simon Jacobson In Conversation with World Leaders, to discuss the issues of our times and the personal challenges we face today.
Join renowned author, speaker and publisher, Rabbi Jacobson in part 2 of this series, featuring Rabbi Warren Goldstein, Chief Rabbi of South Africa.
“‘The more they were oppressed, the more they thrived,’ (Exodus 1:12) is a Torah verse that best encapsulates the current crisis. On one hand we’ve been brought to our knees by the pandemic and on the other, we’ve seen the human spirit prevail,” explains Rabbi Warren Goldstein, Chief Rabbi of South Africa.
