This morning I share part of an interview Daniel Gordis did recently with Dr. Dan Turner. Born in Jerusalem, educated in Israel and Toronto, Dr. Turner is a pediatric gastroenterologist at Shaare Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem. He works with a program there that brings Arab doctors from the West Bank, trains them in a needed specialty, then they return to serve their communities, supported by Shaarei Zedek. Since October 7, 2023, when many Israeli doctors were called up for reserve duty in the IDF, many of these doctors worked the missing shifts at Shaare Zedek Hospital. Dr. Turner shares his perspective on relations between Israelis and Palestinians, and what it would take to improve them.

Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation. We take great pleasure in welcoming everyone with a warm smile, while sharing inspiration through prayer, study, and friendship.

Rabbi Whitman shares his thoughts and inspirations through online lectures and shiurim, which are available on:
