Episodes | Alef Bet

Alef Bet explores the big ideas, core concepts, tough questions, essential values, and evolving practices of Jewish life through the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Hosted by Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie, Alef Bet reimagines ancestral Jewish wisdom for right now.

Drawing on the Torah, Talmud, mysticism, poetry, philosophy, and modern voices, the series offers both timeless teachings and contemporary reinterpretation—no prior knowledge or Hebrew needed.
Whether you’re Jewish, Jew-ish, Jew-jacent or Jew-curious—all are welcome.

Grounded in the God-optional, everybody-friendly, artist-driven approach of Lab/Shul, Alef Bet is for anyone seeking a deeper, more personal connection to Jewish life.
