Catalogue Three Synagogue The Synagogue & Community Life, March 2003 Royalty and the Jews The Jewish community in the United Kingdom has always taken Rabbi Chanina’s dictum to pray for the welfare of the ruling powers (Ethics of the Fathers 3:2) very seriously. Siddurim (daily prayer books) and Machzorim (festival prayer books) published in England have printed the prayer for the salvation of the Monarch from at least the time of King George III who reigned from 1760 to 1820. Of particular interest are two items produced during the ten month reign of Edward VIII who abdicated to marry Wallis Simpson. Jewish items relating to him are extremely scarce. Items are listed in chronological order. 1.

Perhaps you will never have leisure Avot 2:4) 1 Welcome to The Learning Circle At the centre of the life of our synagogue here at the LJS lies its educational programme: the LJS Nursery for children aged 2½ - 5 years old, Rimon Religion School from 3½ to 15, and a full programme of learning and engagement for adults. There is nothing more fulfilling and stimulating than reading a text, listening to a piece of music, looking at a painting, engaging in discussion or learning something new. This prospectus provides a gateway to lifelong learning about Judaism and Jewish cultural identity. For the beginner, Exploring Judaism provides a weekly exploration of Jewish life, history, belief and observance with time to reflect on living a Jewish life. Festivals offer times to delve more deeply into their significance and practice. Lunchtime gatherings on Shabbat have proved a popular way for the congregation to come together to listen to first-class speakers. Art, poetry and music feature in our programme as well as discussions about Israel and Jewish identity. We are delighted to be collaborating once again with Spiro Ark with a full programme of Hebrew and Yiddish classes. In addition, on offer for the first time is a programme of classes at Leo Baeck College. We hope that there will be something that will draw you over the threshold and help to deepen Jewish knowledge and wisdom and enhance our spirituality and Jewish identity.

  • Chief Rabbi Joseph Herman Hertz
    A Bridge across the Tigris: Chief Rabbi Joseph Herman Hertz Our Rabbis tell us that on the death of Abaye the bridge across the Tigris collapsed. A bridge serves to unite opposite shores; and so Abaye had united the opposing groups and conflicting parties of his time. Likewise Dr. Hertz’s personality was the bridge which served to unite different communities and bodies in this country and the Dominions into one common Jewish loyalty. —Dayan Yechezkel Abramsky: Eulogy for Chief Rabbi Hertz.[1] I At his death in 1946, Joseph Herman Hertz was the most celebrated rabbi in the world. He had been Chief Rabbi of the British Empire for 33 years, author or editor of several successful books, and champion of Jewish causes national and international. Even today, his edition of the Pentateuch, known as the Hertz Chumash, can be found in most centrist Orthodox synagogues, though it is often now outnumbered by other editions. His remarkable career grew out of three factors: a unique personality and capabilities; a particular background and education; and extraordinary times. Hertz was no superman; he had plenty of flaws and failings, but he made a massive contribution to Judaism and the Jewish People. Above all, Dayan Abramsky was right. Hertz was a bridge, who showed that a combination of old and new, tradition and modernity, Torah and worldly wisdom could generate a vibrant, authentic and enduring Judaism. Hertz was born in Rubrin, in what is now Slovakia on September 25, 1872.[2] His father, Simon, had studied with Rabbi Esriel Hisldesheimer at his seminary at Eisenstadt and was a teacher and grammarian as well as a plum farmer.

  • Jerusalem and East Mission Fund Was Set up by Bishop Blyth for the Maintenance and Development of the Work of the Diocese
    JERUSALEM AND THE EAST MISSION GB165-0161 Reference code: GB165-0161 Title: Jerusalem and the East Mission Collection Name of creator: Jerusalem and the East Mission Dates of creation of material: 1827-2019 Level of description: Fonds Extent: 301 boxes Administrative History: JERUSALEM & THE EAST MISSION The Diocese of Jerusalem was founded in 1841 under the joint auspices of Queen Victoria and King Frederick William IV of Prussia. The bishops were to be nominated alternately by the English and Prussian sovereigns, to be consecrated by Anglican bishops and to have spiritual jurisdiction over Anglican and Lutheran Christians in Palestine. In 1881, however, a failure to obtain episcopal orders for the Lutherans prepared the way for the withdrawal of Prussia, and the bishopric fell into abeyance for almost six years. It was finally reconstituted on a purely Anglican basis and on 25 March 1887 the Venerable Archdeacon Blyth was consecrated Bishop in Jerusalem with jurisdiction over Syria, Egypt, Asia Minor, Cyprus, the region around the Red Sea, and, later, the Sudan and Iran. The Jerusalem Bishopric Fund, later the Jerusalem and East Mission Fund was set up by Bishop Blyth for the maintenance and development of the work of the diocese. In 1920 Egypt and the Sudan were separated from Jerusalem to form a new diocese with Llewellyn Gwynne as bishop. In 1939 the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Assyrian Mission came fully under the control of J&EM. The diocese of Jerusalem became the seat of a province in July 1957 and at the same time a new diocese of Jordan, Lebanon and Syria was created.

  • Synagogue Consolidation in Post-War New Jersey
    © 2013 Jason Ross Gosnell ALL RIGHTS RESERVED SYNAGOGUE CONSOLIDATION IN POST-WAR NEW JERSEY The Case Study of Woodbridge Township JASON ROSS GOSNELL A thesis submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in Jewish Studies written under the direction of Dr. Nancy Sinkoff and Dr. Jeffrey Shandler and approved by ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS SYNAGOGUE CONSOLIDATION IN POST-WAR NEW JERSEY The Case Study of Woodbridge Township By JASON ROSS GOSNELL Thesis Directors: Doctors Nancy Sinkoff and Jeffrey Shandler The consolidation of synagogues in post-war New Jersey is neither new nor unique. City synagogues country wide with the onset of suburbanization in the 1950s relocated to and/or reorganized in the suburbs. Yet, regardless of the relocations and/or reorganizations of city synagogues, the suburbs witnessed almost two decades of synagogue growth. In the 1970s, however, as the initial reasons for synagogue consolidation changed, net gains in synagogue growth ceased. Surprisingly, although the number of synagogues has decreased and the rate of synagogue consolidation has increased, there is a lack of academic sources dedicated exclusively to those issues surrounding synagogue consolidation. Indeed, the most notable literature concerning synagogue consolidation is that published by communal leadership. Providing congregations wishing to explore consolidation with insight into the issues that arise during the merger process, these sources are practice guides more than academic works. They do not place these mergers within the historical contexts of American Jewry and Judaism in post-war America nor do they examine the ways in which the details of such mergers are informed by these contexts.

  • Reform Or Consensus? Choral Synagogues in the Russian Empire
    arts Article Reform or Consensus? Choral Synagogues in the Russian Empire Vladimir Levin The Center for Jewish Art, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem 9190501, Israel; [email protected] Received: 5 May 2020; Accepted: 15 June 2020; Published: 23 June 2020 Abstract: Many scholars view the choral synagogues in the Russian Empire as Reform synagogues, influenced by the German Reform movement. This article analyzes the features characteristic of Reform synagogues in central and Western Europe, and demonstrates that only a small number of these features were implemented in the choral synagogues of Russia. The article describes the history, architecture, and reception of choral synagogues in different geographical areas of the Russian Empire, from the first maskilic synagogues of the 1820s–1840s to the revolution of 1917. The majority of changes, this article argues, introduced in choral synagogues were of an aesthetic nature. The changes concerned decorum, not the religious meaning or essence of the prayer service. The initial wave of choral synagogues were established by maskilim, and modernized Jews became a catalyst for the adoption of the choral rite by other groups. Eventually, the choral synagogue became the “sectorial” synagogue of the modernized elite. It did not have special religious significance, but it did offer social prestige and architectural prominence. Keywords: synagogue; Jewish history in Russia; reform movement; Haskalah; synagogue architecture; Jewish cultural studies; Jewish architecture 1. Introduction The synagogue was the most important Jewish public space until the emergence of secular institutions in the late nineteenth century. As such, it was a powerful means of representation of the Jewish community in its own eyes and in the eyes of the non-Jewish population.
