Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.

ToI founding editor David Horovitz and Startup Israel editor Ricky Ben David join today's podcast, hosted by Jessica Steinberg.

Horovitz looks at the political ramifications of the budget passed more than a week prior to the November 14 deadline, what that means for the Bennett-Lapid coalition and for former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his plans for the opposition.

Ben-David discusses the different aspects of the budget, the reforms included and what it will take to actually enact the ambitious plans being called for in health, housing, education, finance, agriculture, kosher supervision and other areas.

Horovitz takes a look at the Friday scuffles at the Western Wall and the changes that could take place in the ongoing battles over religion in Israel, with Reform rabbi Gilad Kariv in the Knesset and the presence of the modern Orthodox, not ultra-Orthodox Minister of Religious Affairs Matan Kahane as well as the ultra-Orthodox parties currently in the opposition in the Knesset.

Finally, Ben-David updates us about the Herzliya company that won an Emmy for its television technology.

Discussed articles include:

Even with budget test passed, challenges threaten unity of diverse coalition

Feting new budget, PM says government will last out term, vows to honor rotation

Budget in hand, Bennett’s once-brittle coalition proves it can take on Netanyahu

How much of a revolution? 13 key reforms in Israel’s new state budget
