Noah Feldman: What it means to be a Jew today


Listen Later

The October 7th Hamas terrorist attack and Israel's ensuing war in Gaza have made Jews around the world look closer at the core of their faith and the role of Israel. Legal and religious scholar Noah Feldman has been digging into his own Jewish faith as he watches political and intergenerational conflict play out around him, on college campuses and beyond. He explores all this in a new book, and speaks with Niala for the first of several conversations on 1 big thing about faith in America today--and how changing religious identities affect us all.

Guests: Noah Feldman, professor of law at Harvard University and author of "To Be a Jew Today: A New Guide to God, Israel and the Jewish People."

Credits: 1 big thing is produced by Niala Boodhoo, Alexandra Botti, and Jay Cowit. Music is composed by Alex Sugiura and Jay Cowit. You can reach us at [email protected]. You can send questions, comments and story ideas as a text or voice memo to Niala at 202-918-4893.
