Professor Zvi Zohar, Chauncey Stillman Professor of Sephardic Law and Ethics - Bar-Ilan University, presents his Valley Beit Midrash lecture "We Were Strangers in Egypt: Our Attitude as Jews to non-Jewish Strangers" before an audience at Congregation Or Tzion (www.congregationortzion.org) in Scottsdale, AZ.
