Israel’s strikes on Iran have exposed more than military vulnerabilities—they’ve revealed the deadly consequences of Iran’s religious zealotry. Drawing parallels with the biblical spies in Parshat Shlach and the doomed sectarians of Qumran, Rabbi Dunner explores how absolutist ideology—whether ancient or modern—is not the path to purity or righteousness, but rather to chaos and ruin.

ZEALOTRY ALWAYS ENDS IN RUIN

In the late 1990s Rabbi Dunner presented his own daily 2-hour radio show on London’s multiethnic station, Spectrum Radio. Tens of thousands of listeners – Jews and non-Jews alike – tuned in every day to hear Rabbi Dunner’s take on current events. In 2011 Rabbi Dunner relocated to the US and became the senior Rabbi at Beverly Hills Synagogue. 

Weekly the Rabbi holds a parsha shiur that delves deeper into the Parsha of the week.
