Pursuing Peace
Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza has been going on for over nine months, with no end in sight. Many of us have been asking: “Must the sword devour forever?” (Samuel II 2:26). Where are the voices of peace? Together with Rabbi Aaron, explore a variety of texts on the core value of pursuing peace in Jewish tradition and what that might mean in practice as it relates to a shared future for Israelis and Palestinians.
