10@9 Should We Celebrate Yom HaAtzma'ut - May 12, 2024

This morning we discuss different approaches to whether and how to celebrate Yom HaAtzma'ut (Israel Independence day, this Monday night and Tuesday. We offer two distinct views (and there are many others), Rabbi Mishael Zion, and Miriam Haber, both presented by Daniel Gordis, to give us a sense of the mood in Israel today as we approach this important, inspiring, and heavy week. "May we be worthy of the sacrifices they made for us."
Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation. We take great pleasure in welcoming everyone with a warm smile, while sharing inspiration through prayer, study, and friendship.
Rabbi Whitman shares his thoughts and inspirations through online lectures and shiurim, which are available on:
