The Pingry Politics Podcast is back and better than ever! We've re-uploaded all of our content, with a new Interview with Rabbi Sagal of the B'nai Israel congregation in Rumson. We asked Rabbi Sagal about the Holiday of Yom Kippur and it's the lessons for modern America. Rabbi Sagal was the head rabbi at the Temple Emanu-El in Westfield for nearly my entire life, and isforemost authority I know on the subject of Jewish Theology.

Key Questions for the episode:

What is the historical importance of Yom-Kippur to the Jewish people?

Were Jews subject to reprisals over Yom-Kippur?

Are there any lessons from the Yom-Kippur war or holiday which you feel are especially poignant to the modern day?
