Glad to see you on the JLI, 👏🏽 that’s my Rabbi ….

[@DavidJones-ji9ce]

An open and frank explanation of Judaism. I am inclined to agree with the Rabbi that a moderate approach to Faith is more favourable and better reflects the Creators Love for us and our neighbours, than a Harsh Stricter approach that is more burdensome and alienating. הללויה.

Thank You So Very Much JLI and Rabbi Hanoka for this video. Rabbi made me chuckle a few times. I love the choice of the questions...some I felt not so controversial, just Jewish. Keep up the amazing work.
