Author: Tablet Magazine July 3, 2020 Duration: 15:15
On this week’s episode of Hebrew School, we’re joined by 9-year-old Elizabeth, whose favorite character in Jewish history is Miriam. We learn about Yael, the Biblical heroine who slays Sisra, and wonder whether there were actually any elephants in the Bible.  Hebrew School is hosted by Stephanie Butnick and Liel Leibovitz. Each week we bring you songs, games, quizzes, and real kids answering questions about all things Jewish!  Have a question about the show, or know a kid aged 7-12 who should be a contestant?
