Meet My Hartman RLI Cohort

We've now reached the midpoint of our RLI summer session.  Today 120 Rabbis who were participating in the Hartman Institute's annual Rabbinic Torah Seminar (RTS) departed for home. With the Machon all to our selves for the very first time my RLI colleagues and I decided to take a group photo. Many of you hear me talk about my teachers at The Shalom Hartman Institute and the unique Torah that I learn here. But aside from my friend and colleague, Rabbi David Cohen, you've never had an opportunity to see the other colleagues with whom and from whom I learn Torah.  The other Rabbis in my RlL cohort represent the best and brightest from the Conservative, Reconstructionist, Reform and Modern Orthodox streams of Judaism. Here they are . . .
