From Bokar-Atone, Florida, this is Behind the Bima.

On this episode, the rabbis are joined by M.K. Naftali Bennett, former Israeli Minister of Defense and head of the Aminha Khadash party.

Minister Bennett talks about lessons he learned while living in America, discusses how his commitment to religion informs his professional and political life, and shares his vision for Israel and Jews in the

diaspora. Plus, a global campaign to support BRS, a discussion about Yamakas in the public space

and workplace, and Rabbi Moskowitz has a change of heart during the Super Bowl. All this and more,

Behind the Bima. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Behind the Bima. It is Wednesday 9 p.m. I'm your host, Rabbi F.M. Gubber, joined by my colleagues and dearest friends, Rabbi Philip Moskowitz, and Rabbi Joshua Brody. Gentlemen, what a big night. Wednesday night, 9 o'clock, it is Behind the Bima. We have one of our highest profile guests yet, perhaps a future, if not the next prime minister of the state of Israel.

A former minister today, member of Knesset and Aftali Bennett, what a conversation that is going to be.

And we're excited to bring it to you.

But there's also, what else is going on, gentlemen, this week?

What is happening across the globe this week?

Well, the globe is Bocertone Synagogue this week as BRS has launched our first ever BRS Plus global campaign,

which is seeking to raise dollars, money, and gratitude and appreciation for all the articles, classes. If you're enjoying behind the BEMA, people could take advantage of this. Ravai Goulberg, do you want to speak about that a little bit? I do, but first I want to thank our sponsor for this evening's episode. Very much aligned. We want people to give. Give to BRS. Give elsewhere. The key is to get into the habit of giving because the greatest beneficiary of your giving is yourself. Tonight's episode is sponsored by our friends at dailygiving.org, an incredible organization, making it easy to perform the midst of Stucca every single day. They're giving out $1.7 million a year. So far, none of it to Boko or Tone Synagogue, but hopefully that's going to change after tonight. Every single thing... They're sponsoring tonight. I take it back. They have now given the sponsorship of tonight to Boker atone synagogue. A dollar a day, you can have a huge impact, take 30 seconds. You can use dailygiving.org, not dot com, dailygiving.org, and through dailygiving.org, you can make a difference each and every day. give to daily giving.org and through daily giving.org you can make a difference each

and every day. Give to daily giving.org and give to the BRS global campaign. Why did the BRS global

campaign? What is that all about? Rabbi Moskowitz, who do we think we are talking about the globe?

Who do we think we are? We are a bunch of rabbis who are trying to do good for the Jewish people.

And we're putting a lot of stuff online, certainly since the start of COVID and the move to a virtual platform.

You, Rabbi Gober, get astounding numbers to many of your classes.

And we wanted to give people a chance and opportunity to express that appreciation, that gratitude for all the

Torah coming to Boker and synagogue to support and to enable it to continue. And so, you know,

we got a little cute Disney Plus, BRS Plus, modeled our, actually they modeled themselves after us.

That's the real truth. But, but it's been a lot of fun this week.

I hope people are finding us tonight. We are not streaming on Facebook. We are directing everybody to the platform in which they can participate in our campaign. So hopefully people are finding us. If you have friends who normally watch behind the BMA and they are texting you, where are those guys? Tell them how they can find us at BRSOnline.org.org slash global. BRSOnOnline.orgie slash global. And again, not to belabor the point, but yes, the idea is that, you know, our stats, our data show that there are over 10,000 people a week who tune into our Shurum classes, programs, read our writing, follow our post, join our WhatsApp groups. It's probably closer to 20,000 a week who benefit. and our BRS members, pay our salary, keep our lights on, enable us to be able to spread the Torah, share the inspiration. And we are inviting others to join our mission, our community, our global community. Our local community, first and foremost, our local community, of course, is the heart of what we do. But we have a global community who learn, including people who love Behind the BEMA.
