Rabbi Jeffrey K. Salkin, the Senior Rabbi at Temple Solel in Hollywood, FL (templesolel.com/), presents his lecture "The Gods Are Broken!" before an audience at Temple Chai (www.templechai.com/) in Phoenix, AZ.
ABOUT THIS LECTURE: Everyone knows the story of Abraham shattering his father’s idols. It might even be Judaism’s most famous (non-biblical) story. But it is not really a children’s story. It is the most important Jewish story, and it has deep implications for us today.
