If you find yourself on the Upper West Side, stop by @OhabZedek. There you will witness the Pesach miracle of R’ Allan Schwartz making 4 Siyumim at 4 minyanim. But the real miracle is him reciting the Hadran off by heart.
Marbim Shalom Baaretz!
At a @BRSynagogue tonight @SimchaLeiner & Rivie Schwebel sung this @AbieRotenberg18 song.
Years later the harmony and words remain so piercing.

Gd. Tonight look down on all the families in mourning in Bet Shemesh and bring them comfort.

Loved every page and story and now thinking a lot abt hospitality in education.
I’m curious if anyone out there is incorporating some of the important ideas shared here…
This Chanukah we send love, strength and light to our Jewish communities around the world.
Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the tragic events in Sydney.
The best of Miami helping over 1300 organizations raise funds, reminding us what kindness and leadership looks like.
I love #GiveMiami Day.
Thank you @MiamiFoundation for the amazing day @loanDepotpark@Marlins

We will sing these words at our school this morning not as a prayer but as a statement. God has done more than we could have ever imagined.
And still, we also need to pray for those families awaiting to bring their loved ones to Kevurat Yisrael.
אנא ה׳ הצליחה נא
Best wishes for the Jewish New Year from Israel 🍎🍯
We carry in our hearts 48 hostages still held in torture by Palestinian Hamas in Gaza.
We pray for their swift return & a year filled with peace, freedom, and sweetness for all.
As we dip apples in honey, may the outgoing year and its hardships end; may a new year with blessings begin. Shana Tova!
There is a Medrash that says that Gan Eden smelled like an Apple Orchard. So when we place cut up apples on our Rosh Hashanah table, every Jewish home has the same smell as Gan Eden on the anniversary of the few moments humanity got to live in the Garden…
That’s my hot take…
Why do we have a custom to eat apples of Rosh Hashana?
It’s a question that has long fascinating me. I included my own explanation in my Hebrew work, B’Rogez Rachem Tizkor.
Never heard this idea before.
God’s name hidden in the apple. 🍎
