“Becoming Israel provided my congregation with a
wonderful opportunity to witness Jacob’s ancient
struggle as an inner conflict that is part of us today.
Storahtelling makes the past come alive.”
–Rabbi Gregory S. Marx
“Israel is a complicated place because it contains the
entirety of the Jewish experience. The three characters
in 'Becoming Israel' present distinct experiences from
three historical eras, but each story is connected to a
larger
context. This reflects both a historical truth and
an emotional response shared by many who have
experienced Israel : that the stories of Israel are both
many and one.”
–Esther Kustanowitz
