EULOGY FOR RABBI LORD JONATHAN SACKS - BY RABBI PINI DUNNER

[@jackwaserman9235]

Beautiful and touching eulogy for a remarkable man.

[@philliphamilton3591]

Thank you for this wonderful eulogy. I am not Jewish, but was a great admirer of Rabbi Sacks, because he was such a warm, inspirational teacher, a beacon of light for all mankind. We have much to be grateful for.

[@mosesCordovero-uw5vw]

most of you reading this already know this, but for the few who may not, the closing melody played on this video is Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach's song, "Am Yisrael Chai" alluded to in the above eulogy by Rabbi Dunner who, btw, is quite a fantastic writer, speaker, and of course Rabbi in his own right. how i wish I would have known about these two Rabbis when the dedication to Rabbi Dunner's shul in Beverly Hills took place twelve years ago. it would have been one of the highlights of my life to have been there

[@erpollock]

What an excellent additional eulogy that I had not heard before. I was doubtful at first, but Rabbi Dunner won me over with his sincerity and his stories. He knew Rabbi Sacks and presented a human being, a mensch. I see Rav Dunner must be a highly effective rabbi for his kehilah.

[@davidmescheloff409]

Thanks, Rav Dunner, for your moving, well chosen words. יהי זכרו ברוך.

[@rogerlephoque3704]

One of the most uplifting tributes I've heard and delivered with the kind of spirited oratory that Rabbi Sacks would have recognized as much like his own!! Thank you, Rabbi Dunner.

[@joycealdrich]

How beautiful! Thank you for this inspiring eulogy. I love the teachings by Rabbi Sacks. Yes, an easy thing to do, continue in all Rabbi Sacks gave us. May his family, and all those who loved him , be comforted among the mourners of Zion. Mashiach, soon!!!

[@hillelhurwitz7592]

Kol Hakavod. Your Eulogy for Rabbi Sacks is outstanding. A great loss to the world. Regards from Johannesburg South Africa

[@thelawcommunicator]

This is who we are. One. This unique Rabbi was a legend in his own time taken from us far too soon. A tragic loss.

[@violetarios2475]

Indeed 😔

Thank you so much for your wonderful story and words. Beautiful.

[@carolynm1625]

So sad to hear his passing, I am a Christian and admired his compassion, wisdom and respect for all others.

[@jordisod]

Rabbi Sacks was a complete mensch, and you, Rabbi Dunner, are one for sharing your experiences of him with us.

How beautiful was that.. Thank you for sharing such beautiful sentiments with us all.. Rochel Stefansky (Sipper)

[@RabbiPiniDunner]

Thank you. I sent your message to Hadassa, to give her some nachas!

[@TheRavenscroft]

Pinny ,great message,was as you said, he was such a mench, besides all what he was, once I took a 13 bus soon after shabbos from GG Station, for hashgocho work ,it was soon after he finished being Chief Rabbi, he and his wife got on 2 stops later at the Dunstan Road stop ,I felt a little embarrassed, and blushed, what did he do, they sat specially adjacent to me ,and had a such a beautiful down to earth chat with me ,I got off at St johns wood ,and the Sacks's must have gone on to the west end ,his humbleness and menshlekite shone,such a tragic loss to the world, זכר צדיק לברכה

[@TheMaccabbee]

Beautiful words. Thank you 🙏

[@RabbiHajioff]

Great job Rabbi Dunner! 😀 Enjoyed watching this very much.

[@brendacrayk1569]

Very inspiring tribute! Thank you as I am wiping tears away!

[@MattiaLajuanHarris]

Thank you

[@Mindhumble]

Thanks for this, i was a bochur in gateshead when the book controversy came out, but i didnt follow up on how rabbi sacks reacted, i am very happy to hear his reaction, humility is hard in a position of authority.

[@luruth48]

Rabbi Sacks , a great man , who will be missed

[@dodobird50]

Thank you so much for sharing your special memories. Enjoyed them despite the sad occasion associated with this. All very moving and personal reflections. Joe van den Bergh from Netherlands

[@soed2374]

Tremendous, comical, instructive and poignant....as always. Oh and THANKS

[@andyzneimer930]

Brilliant - thank you

[@144Donn]

Indeed, how lucky we are ! What an amazing blessing he was and continues to be for Klal Yisroel.

[@shulismus7345]

Reb Shlomo, Sue Lawley, Gateshead...it's like we never left Richmond Terrace. Thank you for a beautiful tribute. Chaval al de'avdin was never a more appropriate epithet. He was a giant of emmes and meaningful and impactful humility whose like these days is rare. Good Shabbos

[@RabbiPiniDunner]

All roads lead back to Richmond Terrace! A great man indeed. The world is a poorer place without him.

[@shulismus7345]

[@goldashulkes1897]

May I wish his family long life one have lost a great man. A light in the Jewish community he will never be forgotten rabbi sacks. Was an example of greatness and although he has died he is alive in us through his writings and lectures. Long life to his family. You rabbi sacks will never be forgotten as you live on in history and in us forever thank you

[@Chanie787878]

17:48 It's a good thing Rabbi Sacks & R' Carlebach met when they did, at least that once.

[@briandavies4099]

SHUKUACH..... HE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED

[@aronmu]

Thanks for this well deserved eloquent eulogy for this godol beyisroel. Please note that he held to his view about the monopoly on truth as it can be heard at the end of the clip with Gordon Brown at NYU and probably more. Thus, he did not change into thinking that the haredis have this monopoly, which is part of his greatness. For the sake of peace he edited the next edition but left the first one as was.

[@RabbiPiniDunner]

Absolutely true.

[@parshainsights8107]

thankyou for a most dignified original and eloquent tribute in both content and delivery, one of which Rabbi Sacks himself would have been proud - i can see him saying up on high - "thanks Pini for that amazing Hesped...it really meant a lot to me - and to the "oylam" up here !" can one nevertheless in the interest of honest and open debate which the late Rabbi Sachs himself would no doubt encourage, point out that the idea of relativistic truth of the Torah which he did appear to entertain as opposed to an absolute monolithic truth was something of a revolutionary idea not to the best of my sorely limited knowledge found in the Torah or the Talmud and with a potential spiritual danger not for individuals like Rabbi Sacks himself but for others who might be tottering on the edge - this is not to attempt to diminish the legacy or life of the late great Rabbi Sacks but rather to bravely embrace rather than avoid the substantive and to my mind possibly problematic thesis of that said book - perhaps one might venture to say that it was ultimately the intense Menchlechkait itself of Rabbi Sacks which Pini so sensitively describes, and his deep respect and feeling for all that may have unwittingly motivated Rabbi Sacks to attempt to bridge this hitherto unpassable theological divide. (my apologies, for brevity and brevity only by Pini i mean Rabbi Reb Pini Duner)

[@goldashulkes1897]

It was a shock to hear of the death of a great rabbi rabbi sacks perhaps in his memory put a plague in his name in a shul or library. As he was a man of learning and inspired Jews and non Jews alike. Goldashulkes
