Rabbi Chaim Steinmetz
This week, the Canadian Jewish News has an article by Dave Gordon featuring two blogging rabbis, Rabbi Chaim Steinmetz of the Congregation Tifereth Beth David Jerusalem in Cote St. Luc, Quebec, and Rabbi Debra Landsberg, spiritual leader of Temple Emanu-El in Toronto.
Steinmetz says his blog is “really just to connect with people and to share Shabbat morning sermons and basic Jewish wisdom for a good life.”Â
Similarly, Landsberg says: “I wanted to engage in conversation, albeit virtually, with my congregation about the Jewish universe – its vitality and diversity and challenges. I have been humbled by how this tool has served to build relationships with congregants I do not see face-to-face as often as I may like.â€
