Streets of Jerusalem
5 Lectures

Walk Jerusalem with Rabbi Berel Wein and watch history unfold through the naming of her streets. Through the Turkish, British and finally Israeli rule of the city, politics played as much a role in Jerusalem's street names as the urge to create a fluid and complex monument to the great figures of Jewish history. Visit the great Spanish Rishonim on a trek through Rechavia, or leaders of the Haskalah by sashaying over to Talbiya. You'll never think the same way again about navigating Jerusalem.
