Post 710 Israel Trip Lessons
<p>When I first heard about the Shalom Hartman Institute Rabbinic Solidarity mission, my urge to sign up was overpowering. I love Hartman. For those of you who do not know them, The Shalom Hartman Institute provides high level Jewish learning and thinking for community leaders from their beautiful campus in Jerusalem and through programs in North America. I was a research fellow with the Kogod Research Center in 2020–2021, and I am on the Hartman faculty. They run a program called <em>Rabbanut Yisraelit </em>which ordains rabbis from across the denominational spectrum throughout Israeli society. Our itinerary relied upon that network of students and alumni to share their experiences and the volunteer work they’ve been doing since 10/7. And I must also mention that I really wanted to go visit our friends from Kehillat Achvat B’kerem, Tamir and Adit Nir and whichever of their adult children were around, to stay in their home, enjoy meals together, and just see each other.</p>
