5. History in the Bible

A layman's guide to 150 years of research into the history presented in the Bible. I, Garry Stevens explore the religion of ancient Israel, and the development of Christianity through to the death of Paul. I discuss every single book in every Bible (there are more than you think!). Lightly garnished with a dash of drollery, a soupcon of scrutiny, and not one ounce of objectivity. Not one ounce!

10. The Frum View on Israeli Politics and Culture

Israel is a lovely country. Since it is in the Middle East, it has not been exempt from a turbulent political climate. Although many Israelis have great respect for Jewish values and culture, it is quite common to get caught up in the maelstrom of politics and lose sight of the bigger picture. This show attempts to take a step back and look at things from a calm point of view - in Hebrew, a 'Mabat Ragu'a.'
