Living in the Land by Yoel Berman and the Experiences of Diaspora Jews who Come Home to Israel

Heather Dean’s featured guest in this episode of “613 Books” Podcast is Yoel Berman, who compiled a book called, “Living in the Land: First-hand Accounts of Bnei Torah and their Families.” Yoel is involved in a variety of initiatives to educate his fellow Jews about the centrality of Eretz Yisrael for all of the Jewish people, as well as about the growing opportunities for those from English-speaking countries who wish to make a home for themselves in the Land of Israel. “Living in the Land” comprises the first-hand stories of a wide variety of over fifty (!) Diaspora-born Jews who now reside in Eretz Yisrael in easy-to-read essays that will inspire you to rethink your relationship to the Land of Our Soul. PLUS author and social worker Jonah Simcha Chaim Muskat-Brown is back on the podcast to tell us about the deep, meaningful book that’s on his reading table.
