- In this episode of From The Inside Out With Rivkah & Eda podcast, meet international religious leader, philosopher, award-winning author and respected moral voice Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, who has been described by H.R.H. The Prince of Wales as "a light unto this nation" and by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair as "an intellectual giant”.
We had the privilege and honor of interviewing Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, unaware that it would be his final interview before his passing. While we've grown in our interviewing experience since then, we believe this timing was part of a greater plan. His passing held a poignant significance as we later learned from his secretary, Joanne, that he cherished our conversation. This gift is something we deeply appreciate, and we are grateful to share it with you.
Lord Jonathan Sacks, a towering figure in the realm of philosophy, spirituality, and interfaith dialogue. Rabbi Sacks dedicated his life to exploring the profound intersections of faith, ethics, and modern society, leaving an indelible mark on all those who encountered his teachings. This interview stands as a testament to his enduring wisdom and a final glimpse into his remarkable insights. The privilege of having the opportunity to engage in this conversation with Rabbi Sacks and how his words continue to resonate long after his passing.
We would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below.
Rabbi Sacks' last published book, "Morality" is available below:

Rabbi, we need you! Miss you.
A great admirer of Rabbi Sacks. He was a gem of a man and a gift to us all. I read and loved his book "The great partnership". I learnt so much from him about Judaism and just plain humanity. I gave up on religion about 20 years ago and now I am a committed a non-theist who grew up in a Muslim family and I kid with my Jewish friends that If I were looking for a religion Judaism would be my first choice. But thankfully I am not and will never I am a pure non-theist, science guy. I admired Rabbi Sacks for his humanity and what he called "greatness of individuality".
Every syllable means more to me than any word can ever explain. What a wonderful and deeply missed human being x
Thanx for sharing this touching and precious limud, probably the last on this medium. Rabbi Sacks was such a brilliant scholar , embedding Torah teaching deeply with emotional intelligence. What a loss to our people and humanity. 😢
Ladies, thank you for sharing this precious interview! I am so grateful to Hashem for the few years that I was privileged to listen to this amazing Rabbi's priceless wisdom while he was still with us. He enriched my life beautifully and I still miss him. His very last answer to the very last question of the interview on the question of why bad things happen to good people was genius and very thought provoking! His quiet serenity during the interview makes me wonder if he already suspected or knew that his days of physical presence with us in this world were short? May this world continue to be greatly impacted for tikun through his well lived life! Shalom shalom and Chag Sameach
Said beautifully. Thank you for sharing!
Brilliant post. Agree.
@@FromTheInsideOutPodcast Shalom, I just saw the short clip you recently uploaded of this interview and remembered his genius words and my comment which was made before Shemini Atzeret. I am not Jewish, but I love the G-d of Israel and the Jewish people and I have mourned the 7 October massacre even more than I mourned 9-11. I ask myself if it will take a 7 October or 9-11 type of attack in the USA to help wake this nation up. I speak out against Jew hatred, I stand with Israel and I pray Tehillim for the hostages and IDF but I am also now praying for the protection of American Jews. I don't want to live in a USA where Jews don't feel protected or safe, or if for those reasons most of the USA's Jews do aliyah to eretz Yisrael. I know that this nation has been blessed for welcoming Jews, but I realize it will be cursed if we are inhospitable to G-d's treasured Am Segulah. G-d protect American Jewry and have mercy on this USA!
Thank you all
The 6 Day War.... boy that brings back memories...
Sharing stories and sharing songs as a bridge builder❤❤
The Rabbi gave credit where it is due. May his teachings continue to reach us and enrich us. Regards Dineo Jeanette Chaka Kutumela with Thato Mpho Jamilla Kutumela and Tebogo Mpholo Kutumela from ZA JHB
Watching this under the context of it being his last public interview and you thanking him on not just behalf of the Jewish people but of humanity was comforting and eerie at the same time. Searching for his wisdom more than ever after October 7
Wow. Thank you for your kind words!! We relate to wanting to know what he would have been saying now, and pulling on all the wisdom he has shared. Wondering what stuck with you from the conversation?
We miss Rabbi Sacks more than ever.
The answer at 55:00 on why bad things happen to good people is the most profound explanation ever. Maybe the final and most important teaching from this wise man.
He’s told the story of meeting the Rebbe hundreds of times. Still, in this video, he presents the experience with such vigor and freshness, it sounds like he’s telling it for the first time.
What a wonderful conversation. He’s so refreshing. A huge man but humble. I love his book recommendation. I’m currently reading The Doctor and the Soul, it’s amazing.
I pray 🙏 for world peace ❤
People that are not like us are just like us
his last words of infinitive wisdom
55:33
Thank you, such an amazing interview...
We're glad you enjoyed it, Miriam!
What shall I say? I'm not a Jew, and I'm an atheist. But I respect this man and appreciate his fatherly messages.
He has a lot of wisdom. Thank you for sharing your perspective with us 🙏
