Torah Toons, Week Three
In Lekh-Lekha (Genesis 12-17), Abram, soon to be Abraham, is commanded to “Go forth” from his father’s house and ancestral home. So are our babies commanded from birth. A one-minute Torah Toon by Lawrence Bush, editor of Jewish Currents.
I’m Peter Beinart, editor-at-large of Jewish Currents. Before you go, I need to ask something of you.
In recent years, I’ve watched as mainstream Jewish institutions and media have chosen ethnonationalism over liberal democracy and mass slaughter over the pursuit of a just peace. Jewish Currents offers something different. It’s a magazine built on intellectual curiosity and respect for the dignity of all people.
But a project like this doesn’t sustain itself, and we can’t do it without your help. If you share my belief in the importance of this mission, please consider making a donation—or even better, a recurring one. We need you with us.
