Unsolved Jewish mysteries
Zoom programs
By Jason Harris
Everyone is invited to attend these Jewish Federation of Greater Naples programs that address two unsolved Jewish mysteries:
“Where is King David’s Tomb?”
Thursday, June 26 at 4 p.m.
King David’s tomb is the only place in Jerusalem holy to Jews, Christians and Muslims. But King David isn’t actually buried there! So where is he? And why do we believe he’s there? Take a fascinating dive into ancient archeology, religious history and current conflict that will illuminate questions about how sacred space is shared in modern Israel.
“Who Killed Chaim Arlosoroff?”
Thursday, July 10 at 4 p.m.
Zionist political leader Chaim Arlosoroff was shot dead on a Tel Aviv beach on June 16, 1993. Who killed him? The answer (or lack thereof) includes a rich cast of characters, from Nazis to Yitzhak Rabin and Benjamin Netanyahu. This Jewish “true crime” mystery reveals the origins of Israel’s left-right divide and is essential for understanding political tensions in Israel today.
The cost per program is $10 per household. Register at https://JFGN.regfox.com/unsolved, and the Zoom link will be emailed to you the day prior to the program.
