His speeches are breathtaking performances, by any standard. But heard through Jewish ears, they strike particular chords of resonance. For King was able to effortlessly weave in references to the Hebrew Bible that evoke classic moments from the Jewish narrative. By turning back to reflect on those passages, we can gain a deeper understanding of King’s message, and the ways in which he was offering his own novel interpretations of these texts that are so beloved to our tradition.\n\nDONATE: bit.ly/1NmpbsP\nLEARNING MATERIALS: https://bit.ly/2IVP7Py\n\nFor more info, please visit: \nwww.facebook.com/valleybeitmidrash/\nwww.facebook.com/OrTzionAZ/\ntwitter.com/VBMTorah\nwww.facebook.com/RabbiShmulyYanklowitz/\n\nMusic: \"They Say\" by WowaMusik, a public domain track from the YouTube Audio Library.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/rgXhZfTlnTjybGe2Y8VJvw1nIGugVMdj7wEKsMGYlrk/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzI5ODEyLzE2NTEw/Nzg1NjAtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
