The Jewish Origin Story: Abraham, Idols, Angels, and Sacrifice

The Jewish Story Explained is a “you never got info like this at Hebrew school” trip through the past 3,000 years of the Jewish experience. There are miracles, destruction, sibling rivalry, child sacrifice — and that’s all just in the first episode…

The Jewish Story Explained is based on the book Letters to Auntie Fori: 5,000 Years of Jewish History and their Faith by Martin Gilbert
