The latest episode of RZ (Religious Zionist) Weekly hosted by R’ Reuven Spolter, R’ Johnny Solomon and Mali Adler Brofsky is now available to listen and download from itunes, Podbean and Podcast Addict. This episode begins with some personal and profound reflections by Mali following the murder of Ori Ansbacher hy’d who was a friend and classmate of Mali’s daughter, and this was accompanied by remarks by Reuven and Johnny about the impact of Ori’s murder and legacy on Israeli society (0-14.30mins). Following this, we each offered a variety of perspectives about Shabbat observance in the modern state of Israel while making reference to Gesher Yehudit, Eurovision and the Shalva band’s decision not to perform on Shabbat, and public transport on Shabbat in Israel (18:20-26:00). We concluded with a heated debate concerning religious coercion and religious freedom of Shabbat observance in the Modern State of Israel (26:00-55:50).
