  9. פריחה ושגשוג בחיים דתיים Prof Arnold Eisen, JTS This mission, to my mind, goes hand in hand with service to the Jewish people. We have a wealth of knowledge and insight in this building that can be brought to bear on the issues now confronting Jews. We have scholars in Hebrew language and literature, for example, including the reception of Hebrew culture in America, who can be instrumental in narrowing the growing divide between American and Israeli Jews. In doing so we can prove ourselves real heirs to Schechter, who exactly a century ago this year defied expectations and his board of trustees by issuing a historic and deeply learned endorsement of Zionism.

  10. Prof. Eisen… פריחה בחיים דתיים . We have experts in the history of Jewish community who can help train communal leaders in this country, elsewhere in the Diaspora, and in Israel.

And we have seminaries associated with ours in Moscow, Buenos Aires, and Jerusalem. These connections offer immense possibilities for bringing the Jewish people closer together.
