![]() | About LandMindsThe Land of Israel. It's a focus of our daily prayers, and has been at the center of Jewish consciousness since the nascent days of our nation. Join Barnea & Dovid as they explore the land - through archaeology, geography, history, the Torah, and more. You'll enjoy revealing interviews with archaeologists, scientists, scholars, and other lovers of the Land - and you'll learn about the latest archaeological finds, from the people who are willing to get their hands dirty so that history can tell its story. If you don't mind some off-kilter jokes and light banter, this show will entertain and enlighten. Join us each week on Foundation Stone's LandMinds. |
