From Libels to Kabbalah, Physics to Halacha, and the Secrets of Your Soul
On 22 Av, August 5, 2026, as over 1,200 Jews glide up the palm-lined roads leading to Miami’s Trump National Doral Resort, the most dynamic program in the Jewish world will be waiting for them inside.
The National Jewish Retreat is returning to Miami this year with its boldest program yet—featuring a live historical drama, “Libel!” that pulls the audience into dynamic story-driven Torah study, concert and comedy by world renowned comedian Elon Gold
In five days and 150 workshops, many of the Jewish world’s most fascinating and respected speakers will lead workshops that pull back the curtain on the secrets of Judaism—and the universe itself.
Historian Dr. Henry Abramson will tell the story of the ancient Khazar Kingdom in “The Khazars and the Jews,” while Rabbi Yechiel Krisch explores the secrets of who your soul was before you were born in “Before I Was Me;” and Mrs. Rivkah Slonim, Rabbis Simon Jacobson, Yitzchak Schochet, Moshe Bryski, Yisroel Bernath, Dr. Edward Reichman, and Manis Friedman share Judaism’s most breathtaking insights on everything from the nature of the soul to beating antisemitism, AI, and what happens when a machine can carry a pregnancy to term.
“This is the only Jewish event today where a surgeon from Manhattan and a college student from Kansas can study Torah together at a live drama, with leading Rabbonim, and hear the kabbalistic secrets of their soul together, and sing together like old friends—all in one day,” says Rabbi Hesh Epstein, the National Jewish Retreat’s chairman. “You don’t go home the same after this.”
Held at one of America’s most iconic golf resorts, with a program that will effortlessly fill the Trump National Doral’s 24,079 sq. ft. Grand Ballroom, with gourmet food, live winetasting, art, and more—this year’s National Jewish Retreat is turning out to be a landmark cultural and spiritual event.
