Rabbi on the Portion

The Abandonment of Memory

Over the past two months, we, in the Jewish community, have mourned the loss of so many to the terrorists of Hamas.

Aside from the obvious loses and challenges, we feel betrayed and abandoned by those with whom we have stood in solidarity in the ongoing struggle for equal rights and dignity for all.

In this week's video on the portion Mikketz, I share thoughts about how such abandonment connects us with the biblical Joseph.

Tune in for the details.

With hopes for peace in Israel and destruction of Hamas,

Shabbat Shalom,

Rabbi Klayman
