A former activist in the West Bank, he was committed to reconstituting the Jewish state within its biblical borders. Now an Orthodox rabbi, he is devoted to teaching inclusiveness, celebrating diversity, and promoting acceptance.

- How can we balance commitment and openness?
- How can we create a world with less violence and division?
