S3 EP8 Why Loving Every Jew Is So Hard - and What Helps

In this episode of Israel Gap Year B’IYUN, Avi Proctor sits down with Rabbi Yamin Goldsmith from Sha’alavim for Women to talk honestly about the challenge of Ahavat Yisrael.



Rabbi Goldsmith shares why loving every Jew doesn’t come easily, what that mitzvah actually demands, and how the events of October 7th reframed the way he thinks about Jewish unity. Through personal stories and real examples, the conversation explores practical ways to work on loving others — especially those who think or live differently — and what helps turn this value from an idea into lived action.
