 nElon Gilad is a historian\, journalist\, Hebrew language expert and autho
 r. He explores the deep connections between language\, history\, and cultu
 re. As a journalist\, he writes a weekly etymology column for Haaretz wher
 e he uncovers the fascinating stories behind Hebrew words\, bridging ancie
 nt texts with modern usage. Some recent articles include “Who Wrote the 
 Passover Haggadah?” and “From Scripture to Sea: The Revival of Hebrew 
 Fish Names.”He is the author of the book The Secret History of Judaism\,
  a book that challenges common narratives and brings a fresh perspective o
 n Jewish history.\n\nIn an effort to make Jewish history and Hebrew access
 ible to a wide audience\, Elon Gilad creates engaging social media content
  on Hebrew and Jewish history. His work spans scholarship\, storytelling a
 nd media\, making complex issues both insightful and engaging.\n\nRabbi Sc
 hweber was first made aware of Elon Gilad on TikTok. Many of Elon’s shor
 t videos describe how modern Hebrew words are inspired by often obscure Ta
 lmudic or Biblical words and idioms\, which is something of interest to Ra
 bbi Schweber.
