Judaism Unbound Episode 531: Jewish Ancestors, Young and Old - Eli Ramer

Written By Lex Rofes

Eli Ramer is a maggid (storyteller), an author, and a mystic. He joins Lex and Rena Yehuda for a conversation about Jewish connections across generations. They explore what it means to do eldering work, discuss Jewish notions of reincarnation (gilgul), and exchange stories that have the potential to help build a brighter world.
