Bereshit 5787: Creation is a heroic act

Why did Daniel open his window and pray toward Jerusalem three times a day — in a city that wasn’t his, toward a Temple that no longer stood? In this first new episode from The Jewish Story, we follow Daniel from the ashes of Jerusalem to the courts of Babylon and Persia: the king’s table, Nebuchadnezzar’s dream, the writing on the wall, and the lions’ den. Along the way we explore Malchut — kingship, the power to create context — on three scales: the self, the community, and Malchut Shamayim, the kingdom of heaven. Daniel’s story asks the questions every Jewish hero must answer: What is good? Whom do you serve? Where do you take your stand?
