Have you ever heard of a Jewish community that has lived in China for almost 1000 years?

Join me in today’s episode, where I speak with Anson Laytner - the president of the Sino-Judaic Institute and a retired programs manager at Seattle University -  about the history of Kaifeng Jews, a Jewish community that has resided in the city of Kaifeng since the 12th century.

Anson is also a rabbi and an author, writing books such as: ““The Chinese Jews of Kaifeng” and “Arguing with God: a Jewish Tradition”.

What are you waiting for? Tune in for our chat about the ancient Chinese Jews!

Many thanks to Anson for coming onto the show. You can learn more about Anson and his work on his website here: https://ansonlaytner.com/
