  • The Rabbi's Daugher Ep. 11: Derech Eretz: Optional or Essential?

    This episode takes a hard look at Derech Eretz: its classical meaning, its uneasy place within the Haredi system, and the tension between insularity and basic civic responsibility.

    In this episode of The Rabbi’s Daughter, we ask a difficult question: where is the line between a supportive community and a system that limits personal freedom?

    talk about Haredi identity, nationalism, and military service — and what

    volatile debates.
