Welcome to "Inside the Epicenter," with Joel Rosenberg and Lynn Rosenberg—your go-to podcast for understanding Israel, the Middle East, and the pulse of biblical prophecy in our times. In this episode of Inside the Epicenter, Lynn Rosenberg welcomes Victor Kalisher, head of Israel’s Bible Society, to discuss a surprising challenge: most Israelis—even Hebrew speakers—struggle to fully understand their own Bible due to ancient language and tradition. Victor Kalisher shares the story behind a historic breakthrough: the first-ever modern Hebrew translation of the entire Old Testament, making Scripture accessible to today’s Israelis for the first time. Join Lynn Rosenberg and Victor Kalisher as they explore why this translation is so needed, how it was developed, and the powerful impact it’s already having—from opening young people’s eyes to helping schools and soldiers connect with God’s Word. It’s a fascinating look at bridging the gap between heritage and modern life, all at the heart of Israel.

Verse of the Day: Psalm 119:14-18. It says, I rejoice in following your statutes as one rejoices in great riches. I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways. I delight in your decrees. I will not neglect your word. Be good to your servant while I live, that I may obey your word. Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law.
Praying for the people of Israel that more and more people here in this land where this Word was written, that they will read God's Word, that they will understand God's Word, that he'll open their eyes so that they can see the wonderful things, especially their Messiah, Yeshua, Jesus.

Verse of the Day: Jeremiah 31:3 - I have loved you with an everlasting love. Therefore, I have remained faithful to you.
We pray that you help us to stand in your word, to walk in truth and reality, not to be slow swayed by the world around us, by the enemy that wants to deceive us. Lord, I pray that we would become good teachers of those around us, that we would speak with love, that you would give us the right tone, and that you would provide us with your truth to be standing in.
Help us, Lord, as we combat the lies of the enemy in Jesus' name, that we would speak with love, that you would give us the right tone, and that you would provide us with your truth to be standing in. Help us, Lord, as we combat the lies of the enemy in Jesus' name.
