Ukraine and the Jewish world - with Rabbi Jacobson

June 3, 2023

Why is Ukraine important to the Jewish world? Which figures and elements of Jewish religious history and culture are linked to Ukraine? How can we look at Ukrainian and Jewish history in a way that treats tragedies with justice but also discovers parallels and interconnections?

  • Volodymyr Yermolenko, Ukrainian philosopher and chief editor of UkraineWorld, speaks to Rabbi Jacobson, a Jewish scholar, best-selling author, and Founding Dean of The Meaningful Life Center in New York.

Thinking in Dark Times is a podcast series by UkraineWorld. This series seeks to make Ukraine and the current war a focal point of our joint reflection on the world's present, past, and future. We try to see the light through and despite the current darkness.
