A Rabbi’s Plea for Peace | 2025 in Review

A Rabbi’s Plea for Peace | 2025 in Review

All this week, What Next and What Next: TBD are re-airing some of our favorite conversations from throughout the year and checking back with the people in those conversations to see how things have – or haven’t – changed. This episode is from August.

More than a thousand rabbis and Jewish leaders have signed a letter calling for Israel to end “the use and threat of starvation as a weapon of war.” This New York rabbi, who has felt a connection to Israel her whole life, explains why she signed.

Guest: Sarah Reines, rabbi at Temple Emanu-El in Manhattan.
