From Manchester to Jerusalem
from Transported Hosted by Michael
If there’s one thing for British Jews and non-Jews to take away from this episode, it’s this call to action. Home is where you make it, and for 370 years we have made our home in Britain. Next week is Succot (Tabernacles) - we call on British people of all faiths and none to visit their Jewish friends in their succah, and to spend time together reflecting on its symbolism as a fragile and temporary home for the Jews as they wander in their own proverbial desert. If you don’t know Jews and there is no succah, build one for yourselves. In many ways Succot is about not taking your home or way of life for granted - this is a lesson Western society must learn before it’s too late. This is a public episode.
