When Hate Attacks, Jewish Life Answers

A Mississippi synagogue is set on fire—and in the ashes, a prayer book lies open to the Shema. In this episode of Seeking Sinai, Rabbi Natan Trief is joined by Rabbi Brad Levenberg to confront the evolving face of Jew-hatred and why synagogues remain such powerful symbols of hatred as well as resilience. Together, they wrestle with fear, history, and the pressure to respond without losing our moral center. This is a conversation about clarity over panic, presence over silence, and the stubborn courage to remain visibly, proudly Jewish.
