Rabbi Dr. Mitchell Serels, Head of Sephardic Studies at Yeshiva University, introduces the world of Sephardim --their customs, and their costumes.
102-CJ Yemenite Jewry (1) Sampson Giat, president of Yemenite Jewish Federation of America, reveals the story of the Yemenite children who disappeared in the early 1950s, and how some of them are reemerging in Israel today.
103-CJ Yemenite Jewry (2) Sampson Giat and scholar Hadar Zabari talk about Yemen, the oldest known Jewish community in the world, which traces its roots to the first Holy Temple. Now these Yemenite Jews are living today in Israel, with their ancient customs and traditions.
113-CJ Kosher Historical Spain About Sephardic Jews' endless love affair with Spain, and why many Jews are rediscovering so much of their own Jewish way of life in the towns and cities where their ancestors once lived and bloomed before 1492. Noted lecturer Chana Scharfstein takes you on a kosher and educational tour of Spain. Hear about those famous Jewish names--Maimonides, Yehuda Halevi, Abarbanel, et al.-- who were once Spaniards. See loads of footage, including the first synagogue ever built in Madrid, the famous Jewish Quarter in Seville, and Gibraltar, the Crown Colony that rests on the Sabbath. 156-CJ "This Land Is Ours!" (1) What it is like for Jews living in Hevron, surrounded by millions of Arabs who have been taught to hate Jews--even to kill them--and go to heaven for their murderous actions--if they get the chance, heaven forbid! What sense of fairness can a Jew expect from the heads of the Hevron Palestinian forces who are named Abu Hitler or nicknamed Eichmann? Hevron citizen Baruch Marzel discusses life in Hevron, what's really going on between Jews and Arabs, and tells why Jews feel safer in Hevron than most Americans do in their own cities. 157-CJ "This Land Is Ours!" (2) Baruch Marzel, the official keeper of Jewish monuments in the "territories" otherwise known as Judea and Samaria, takes us on the journey our forefather Abraham took from his hometown to "Israel." This same path was taken by the Israelites and Joshua as they went forth to inherit the Promised Land, and still later, as King David did, journeying from Hevron to Jerusalem to establish the house of David.
