Description

Almost every democratic country, including the United States and Israel, has leaders and even presidents who broke the law and sinned, and some even went to jail. After this punishment, how does Judaism instruct people to view these leaders? Should they be honored because of their past service, or ignored completely because of their sin? This podcast will show how traditional Jewish sources have much to teach us about this sensitive and current issue.
