In This Episode
You sit in shul. The shofar blows. What do you feel? You may not want to admit it, but for many of us the answer is: nothing. For a long time, that’s how Imu felt also.

In this first episode of the new season, we begin that journey of discovery with a first look at the origins of the shofar in the Torah text.
