Rabbi Jonathan Rosenblatt at SFW


On Thursday night, we had the zechut of hearing a sicha from Rabbi Jonathan Rosenblatt. In addition to being the father of Rivka Rosenblatt, SFW ’12, ‘13, Rabbi Rosenblatt has been the Senior Rabbi of the Riverdale Jewish Center in Riverdale, NY since 1985. He lectures widely in the United States, the United Kingdom, South Africa, and Israel and is an instructor in the RIETS Rabbinic training program as well as in programs in Israel that train Rabbis for the Diaspora. 

Rabbi Rosenblatt delivered an inspiring sicha about the Haskafic differences between the disagreement between Beit Shammai and Beit Hillel about order of candle lighting on Chanukah. 

We thank Rabbi Rosenblatt for taking time out of his busy schedule to share words of Torah and inspiration! 

We look forward to seeing him at SFW soon!
