Dr. Dalia Marx—one of the most respected voices in contemporary Jewish thought and liturgy. We talk about how October 7 and the war since have brought profound and rapid changes to the world of Jewish prayer: the language, the focus, even the urgency. Rabbi Marx also shares her reflections on the Jewish responsibility to bring our hostages home, and the prayers—old and new—that have sustained her through these past eighteen months.

It’s a moving, grounded, and deeply thoughtful conversation with someone who has dedicated her life to holding the sacred and the human, side by side.
