  • Rabbi Moshe Bloom- A War and a Prayer

    Rabbi Moshe Bloom- A War and a Prayer
    Mar 26 2026
    In normal times, Rabbi Moshe Bloom is the rabbi of Netzach Shlomo in Petach Tikvah, and head of the English department at Machon HaTorah VeHa’aretz — the institute dedicated to the agricultural laws of the land of Israel. But these are not normal times. Rav Bloom is also an IDF officer and a Rav Gdud — a battalion rabbi responsible for 450 soldiers. For over 500 days, he has been fighting alongside his battalion. The moment Operation Roaring Lion began, they were sent straight to the Lebanese border. I spoke with Rav Moshe from that border — about what it means to be a rabbi for 450 soldiers, what his responsibilities look like in the field, and how he tries to be there for his men, night and day, so they can be the best soldiers they can be.

  • Can the American Shul Model work in Israel?

    Can the American Shul Model work in Israel?
    Feb 11 2026

    Rabbi Larry Rothwach is one of the most respected pulpit rabbis in America. He’s been the rabbi of Congregation Beth Aaron in Teaneck for over twenty-two years. During that time, he watched twenty percent of his community make aliyah. They’d call him from Israel and tell him the same thing: we love it here, but we miss having a shul that’s really a community, a rabbi who knows our names, a kehilla that’s there for us in moments of joy and crisis. Now he’s making aliyah himself to build exactly that - a new community called Meromei Shemesh in Ramat Beit Shemesh. He’s also the Director of Professional Rabbinics at RIETS, which means he’s been training the next generation of American rabbis in pastoral care and community leadership - work that overlaps deeply with what we do at Barkai for Israeli rabbis. Today we talk about what American communities have that Israeli ones often lack, whether that model can actually take root in Israeli soil, and what it means to start over and build something from nothing at a stage in life when most people are slowing down.

  • Amit and Arik Baron - Two Languages, One Home | Ep 15

    Amit and Arik Baron - Two Languages, One Home | Ep 15
    Jan 5 2026

    Amit and Arik Baron are a “mixed” couple—one became religious, one didn’t. More common than you’d think. Ami Baram, founder of Hitkashrut Zugit—an organization that supports these couples—shared just before October 7th that about 20% of Israelis are moving closer to religious observance while 13% are moving further away. A full third of our people are in flux.

    In this clip from the upcoming Defining Moments podcast, Arik and Amit offer a surprising insight: their kids are the answer. Children from these marriages grow up bilingual—fluent in both religious and secular worlds.

    What if we learned from them? What if we trained ourselves to speak both languages? We’d all be better off. הפקה: DABRU לפרסום ושיתופי פעולה צרו קשר במייל- info@dabru.biz הפקה: DABRU
