Identity · 4 min
A Jew who cannot say what Shabbat is will not win a public argument about Israel. The first work is literacy: people, calendar, obligation. Pride that skips the table does not last.
לייענעןShabbat · 3 min
Most people do not begin with a ruling. They begin with candles, a meal, and a phone put away. ReJEWenate treats that Friday as the front door, not as a performance.
לייענעןHasbara · 4 min
The Hasbara Academy is not a shouting course. Twelve weeks of history, verification, and the discipline to stop when the source stops. A claim without a document is not advocacy.
לייענעןIsrael · Dignity · Rabbi Nissim Mordechai Makor
Two truths, and Jews have no right to separate them. The Jewish people must never again be defenseless. Power is not our purpose. Israel must be strong enough to defend life, and good enough to deserve the strength in its hands.
לייענעןBook · Ketoret · Rabbi Nissim Mordechai Makor
A careful Torah study of fragrance, the eleven ingredients of the sacred incense, the human soul, memory, healing, and communal responsibility. Expanded edition, 2026.
לייענעןBook · Morning blessing · Rabbi Nissim Mordechai Makor
Why we bless God every morning for entrusting us with the Jewish mission. The blessing is not a claim of superiority. It is gratitude for being commanded, summoned, obligated, and entrusted.
לייענעןBook · 54 parshiot · Rabbi Nissim Mordechai Makor
Fifty-four portals of chesed and tzedakah, one for each parashah. The Torah begins with Hashem clothing Adam and Chavah and ends with Hashem burying Moshe. Between those two acts lies the path.
לייענעןTestimony · Rabbi Nissim Mordechai Makor
The first stroke came without warning. Over the years, eleven strokes, two years in a wheelchair, then a walker, then a cane. Recovery was not one dramatic miracle. This is the testimony, and what it has to do with standing against antisemitism.
לייענעןManual · Rabbi Nissim Mordechai Makor
A practical manual for combating antisemitism. A Jew must not live bent over in fear, and must not answer hatred with hatred. The answer is truth, dignity, discipline, and courage.
לייענעןSpeech · Rabbi Nissim Mordechai Makor
Zionism is not a prime minister, a coalition, or the Knesset. Governments are temporary. Eretz Yisrael is not. You can criticize an Israeli government and still love Israel.

52-Week Orthodox Conversion Course
A structured educational cycle, not a self-conversion program. Completing these lessons does not make a person Jewish, guarantee acceptance, or set a conversion date. The aim is a Jewish life: faithfulness to Torah, competent daily practice, one full cycle of the year, growing Hebrew, and belonging in an Orthodox congregation.
Only a qualified Beit Din judges readiness and procedure.

12-Week Course to Confront Antisemitism
Antisemitism begins with a conclusion—the Jew is guilty—and then searches for a story. This course teaches that pattern before it is normalized, from mockery to exclusion, blame, intimidation, and violence, and how to answer without becoming a mirror of the hatred.
Prepare to live Jewishly, not to live frightened.

12-Week Public Diplomacy Course
An ambassador is not trained to win every argument. The ambassador is trained to explain clearly, verify carefully, speak humanely, correct errors, and know when not to answer. Independent civil-society education—not an agency of the Government of Israel.
Truth before speed. Credibility before a slogan.
