Let My People Know

Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz: “I do not tell Mr. so-and-so to put on another pair of tefillin.”

The real point in building a community is not to make a new building for the synagogue.

The point is to fill the synagogue with people, making it come alive.

It is not in doing one-time things, but in getting constantly involved, having a part of our hearts tied to it.

There are no precise measures for this.

I do not tell Mr. so-and-so to put on another pair of tefillin.

The one measure that there is, is this:

Whatever you do, you can do better, and you can do more of it.

–Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz
