Fox News
The chief rabbi of South Africa shared thoughts about Passover, faith, the Jewish people and today's rampant antisemitism just ahead of the holiday's start on Monday at sundown.
He is also a judge with a PhD in human rights and constitutional law. "There is something much bigger at play. It is … a great civilizational battle that touches on the essence of who we are." "It all seems so surreal, what we’ve been through over these more than six months." "Antisemitism is marked by its "unrelenting persistence for centuries, and its unique viciousness," said one rabbi. The Seder is a ceremonial meal symbolically reenacting the trials and tribulations the Israelites faced as they were leaving Egypt. "Understanding that the story of our people is taking place on another plane [is] living proof of the presence of God." Eve Glover is a contributing writer for Fox News Digital.
He told Fox News Digital he's always been moved by the scriptural quote, "It’s not in the sky … It’s in your heart" (Deuteronomy 30) because he applies the spiritual principals of heaven to the physical realm.
