That’s like a legit seforim shrank.
Artscroll Tanach, Zohar, Rambam.

The seforim, which were on bookshelves in what appeared to be a study, included an Artscroll Tanach, Zohar hakadosh, and a set of Rambam. That prompted social media users including David Bashevkin to wonder why Rodgers, who is not Jewish, would be in a home with the Torah books.
In one clip, Rodgers even mentions the “books to read” behind him, however he did not specify their Jewish nature.
“There’s good book to actually read behind me,” says @AaronRodgers12, pointing to the shelves of Hebrew and English Jewish religious books behind him. What is happening. https://t.co/EYungYNi6g

I’m pretty sure, he’s talking in front of a green-screen, the background is fake, he just didn’t realize the background he used was jewish…
Because his Jewish accountant gave it to him
Well, his last name is rodGERs. 😉
Fake background
Twitter sleuths have figured out that he’s in the house of serial predator/disgraced ex-rabbi Marc Gafni (the library background is exactly the same). Gafni is the guru for Aubrey Marcus, who is Aaron Rodgers’ best friend. Not a good look for Rodgers!
The Jets are a hapless pathetic team. They are wandering around cluelessly. The organization hasn’t had a good quarterback since I last played there.
Well if you know Rodgers it’s all part of the plot , would be no surprise if he converts after winning a ring in ny he’s definitely been searching for while.
He’s into rightist conspiracy theories. And other junk.
