In 1948, just three years after the Holocaust had ended, a seeming miracle happened: a Jewish state was proclaimed in Palestine and given the name of “Israel.” Over the next 66 years, that state has weathered wars and uprisings, has grown from a tiny nation to a military and technological giant, and has tried to determine what sort of country it wants to be. Come learn about The Land and The Modern State of Israel with Rabbi Tom Alpert and the Etz Chaim community.
