Hirsch was not an Extremist

Admin April 26, 2018

0 0 0

In all the things that might be pinned upon Rabbiner Hirsch, perhaps the most irresponsible is to align him with the views of the Netrurei Karta. Now, there is reason to call him adverse to Zionism.

Please watch until the very end…surprise ending asks all the tough questions. Don’t worry, my heart is in the right places. Please don’t vent in the comment section. The internet is large enough to vent elsewhere…

In the much celebrated painting of Moritz Oppenheim of the Jewish wedding a jester appears on the steps of the synagogue. The chuppah is performed in the courtyard of the synagogue. Affixed to a wall of that courtyard is a tablet with a Magen David (six-cornered star) and some Hebrew writing. I was once told […]

A personal tribute to an influential teacher in our school, expressing in my own way some of what needed to be said upon his recent passing. The music is “Velvet” by “The 8th Day”, a song they wrote in tribute to their teacher.

When I was a young Yeshiva student and beginning to learn Torah earnestly, a friend of mine approached me and showed me something devastating in a sefer. The book was quoting the words of the Sifsei Kohen (or “The Shach”, 1621-1662) in Yoreh Deah (91) that states “one must wait 6 hours after eating meat […]

Rev. Walter Hes passed away this last year at the age of 101. He and our beloved Mr. Hellmann o.b.m might have been the last two remaining alumni of the famed Wurzburg Seminary. This video tells the story of the students who dreamed of becoming “lehrer” and the lives they built on these shores.
