The Jerusalem Dateline episode marks America's 250th anniversary by focusing on Jewish patriots and the Judeo-Christian values tied to the nation's founding. Guests Gil Troy and Jim Garlow highlight Gershom Mendes Seixas, the first native-born American rabbi, and financier Haym Salomon.
The program presents historical contributions of these figures to American independence and liberty within a framework of shared religious heritage between the United States and Israel.
