Sivan Rehav Meir Visits JFS

Year 10 and Year 11 students were recently treated to international personality Sivan Rehav Meir, a well-known Israeli journalist, primetime news reporter, publicist, TV and radio anchor and a highly sought after speaker.

Identified as a highly gifted child at just 8 years of age, Sivan Rehav Meir wrote her first book at the age of 17 and went on to be chosen by Globes magazine as the most popular female media personality in Israel, also by the Liberal magazine as one of the 50 most influential people in Israel. The Jerusalem Post newspaper cited Rahav-Meir as one of the 50 most influential Jews in the world.

Our guest spoke to the students about her journey to becoming religious having come from a secular family. Rehav Meir gives a regular Parashat haShavua shiur (talk on the weekly Torah portion) and students were given a taste of her insights into the Torah.
