We're back for our fifth season of The Koren Podcast asking our guests to teach us their Torah al regel ahat - standing on one leg.
We were joined this week by Rachel Goldberg and Jon Polin, the parents of Hersh Goldberg-Polin who, at the time of recording, has been held hostage by Hamas terrorists for 136 days.
Hersh is one of 134 people who have been held in captivity since October 7th and, as Rachel and Jon say, they have been living every parent's worst nightmare. Rachel and Jon have been working, and worrying, around the clock for nearly 5 months to get any information they can about their son and secure his release.
Despite the unfathomable situation in which they find themselves, Rachel and Jon have displayed unbelievable poise and courage while meeting with presidents, celebrities, and even the pope to ensure that the world does not forget about this humanitarian crisis.
One thing that Jon and Rachel have been vocal about is how their faith has been a source of inspiration and guidance during such a difficult time and allowed them to continue the fight to bring their son home.
Listen now as they share their Torah al regel ahat.
