The Jewish Story Season 5
Episode Interlude: Empires Come and Empires Go
Many people look at the world today and feel the foundations of American power shaking – and most are afraid. Here is an episode about empires, made in the spirit of Hanukkah. Rav Mike takes a look backward to seek wisdom for survival in imperial transitions Am Yisrael has weathered in the past, touches on the problems of the present, and even takes a glance forward to offer a taste of what might lie ahead.
