A year after Jews were slaughtered in synagogues in America, and anti-semticism is rising, rabbis have something to say on #RoshHashanah - it’s a new year. Shana Tovah. May it be a good and sweet one. forward.com/news/432346/we…
“I will be speaking on “Now what? What have we learned and where do we go from here?” said Rabbi Jeffrey Myers of Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue, where the first of the two deadly shootings happened.” The names of the 11 murdered will be remembererd as martyrs, he added.
