An Orthodox Rabbi Interviews a Reform Rabbi [Denominations 1/4]

An Orthodox Rabbi Interviews a Reform Rabbi [Denominations 1/4]

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we speak with Diana Fersko, senior rabbi of the Village Temple Reform synagogue, about denominations and Jewish Peoplehood.

In this episode we discuss:
  • How do we re-determine how to be Jews in America?
  • Is there really an “education gap” between Orthodox and non-Orthodox Jews?
  • How should we handle the question of “who is a Jew” across denominations?
Tune in to hear a conversation about how we might see beyond our proverbial “three blocks."

Interview begins at 22:11.

Diana Fersko is the Senior Rabbi of The Village Temple, a Reform synagogue at the heart of downtown Jewish life in New York City. An internationally recognized author, speaker, and thought leader, she is a defining voice in the contemporary Jewish world, known for her clarity, compassion, and ability to bring Jewish tradition into meaningful dialogue with modern life.
