Rabbi Zalman Phillips, director of Jewish Bedtime Stories, has released an exciting new two-part Purim audio series, titled “Purim: Did You Know?” In addition, a Yiddish version has also been made available, ensuring even more children can enjoy this new series.
This special Purim series brings the story of Purim to life with fascinating insights, professional storytelling, and valuable lessons that children can relate to and absorb. An expert storyteller, Rabbi Phillips explores little-known details and hidden miracles of the Purim story, making it both educational and entertaining for young listeners.
Rabbi Zalman Phillips began telling stories in his classroom in 5774, where he witnessed something extraordinary: children sitting in rapt attention, absorbing Torah values through the power of storytelling. Realizing the impact, he knew these stories had to reach beyond his classroom—leading to the creation of Jewish Bedtime Stories.
More than just entertainment, these stories instill Torah values, trust in Hashem, and a wealth of Jewish knowledge in a way that captivates even the most sensitive listeners. Today, over 15,000 people tune in each month to experience this unique storytelling.
“I’ve learned that both children and adults connect more deeply with stories than with anything else”, says Rabbi Philips. “When hearing about noble deeds, they’re inspired to emulate them. When learning about Hashem’s miracles, their trust in Him grows stronger.”
