Hebrew Voices #155 – Meet the Samaritans!

In this episode of Hebrew Voices #155, Meet the Samaritans!, Nehemia sits down with a real-life Samaritan scholar to discuss the origins of this ancient community, the religious significance of Mount Gerizim, and how an emergency Samaritan Torah crisis required the intervention of the Kingdom of Jordan and the President of Israel.

I look forward to reading your comments!
