  • Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis

    I listen to thought for the day last thing before I go to sleep- and my favorite is Sir Mirvis. Every sentence has a deeper meaning. The warm, kind voice is like a comforting blanket, the message clear with hope for the world.

    Some sentences I write down. Pls come on air more often

    My mum died 21/12/2020 she went to hospital for one thing and ten days later she was tested positive for covid and died two days later I cannot forgive and it will take time to process this all. I am crushed by things related to this namely Conservative who take for granted the privileges they have been given I don’t believe the conservative will change until the day of voting which I pray will remove them

  • More from Rabbi Mervis please

    I am a Christian but I find the contributions from a Jewish perspective very wise, kind, thoughtful and comforting- five stars for this when he and his colleagues contribute. I find some of the Christian commentators not in the same league!
