Questions/Issues Discussed:

Does Jewish tradition place a high value on modesty?

On the Jewish holiest day, Yom Kippur, why is Leviticus Chapter 18 read? Jonathan admits that this has puzzled him for years! When he wrote this article, though, he finally understood, saying: “If you take it to the extreme, that means everything up until that point is also really critical.”

Do Protestant and Evangelical pastors often inquire why the Jewish tradition places such a high value on modesty?

During President Biden’s recent visit to Israel, why did a famous female Israeli singer refuse to shake his hand? HINT: It’s not because she doesn’t like Biden. It’s for a whole different reason.

Do more people, especially Christians, need to respectfully choose not to compromise their values?

Is the foundation of morality self-control over uncontrolled sexuality? Jonathan counters that, saying: “The foundation of morality is the Bible… As people who worship the Creator, we have moral guidelines and a moral obligation to subscribe to that.”
