Listen "In the Spotlight: Anthony Julius - Abraham: The First Jew"
Episode Synopsis
Why Abraham? Why now?
In this compelling conversation on In The Spotlight with Abigail Pogrebin, acclaimed author and legal scholar Anthony Julius dives into his new book, Abraham: The First Jew.
Together, they explore Abraham not just as a biblical figure, but as a prototype of Jewish identity itself — a man who walked away from comfort, challenged power, and pioneered a life of faith, doubt, and moral courage.
Julius brings both philosophical insight and historical sharpness to the enduring question: what does it mean to be a Jew — and why does Abraham still matter?
