Rosh HaShanah 1 5785: Expanding Compassion
Rabbi Ita Paskind
Congregation Beth El, Norwalk
A few months ago, I attended a meeting of interfaith clergy. We met at a restaurant overlooking the water, and we did the standard go-around to introduce ourselves. We ordered, and then the smaller conversations began. How long have you been at your church? Where did you work before coming to this area? How are things at the synagogue? And then came THE question, and I wasn’t prepared: Rabbi, how do you feel about the war?
