Rabbi Zuckerman: After the Fall: How We Rise (November 1, 2025)
From this week's parashah about Abraham, the anniversary of the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin, and the upcoming Mayoral election in NYC, Rabbi Zuckerman finds a common lesson: sometimes we have to go down to climb even higher and what seems like misfortune and betrayal can actually be providence in disguise.
This season brings a wealth of opportunities to worship, learn, and socialize. Take a look at our offerings and find what interests you.

O Captain! My Captain! (Ho Rav Hovel)
Following the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin – whose 30th yahrzeit we observe this week – Naomi Shemer translated Walt Whitman's poem “O Captain! My Captain!” into Hebrew and set it to music. Whitman wrote the poem after the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. May the memory of our fallen leaders continue to guide us toward peace.
