Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-12

[00:00:00]Shabbat parhat and it's actually a entire Shabbat 250 movement actually come out a presidential proclamation answer the call for the first time in history a sitting United States president has proclaimed a national Sabbath from sundown May 15th to nightfall May 16th join thousands in a historic moment of rest reflection and national gratitude now there's a proclamation he's made now I want point out here from the outset in the Torah commands the Jewish nation keep the Shabbat every single week. So this is not just a one-off in of its own right.

[00:00:37]It's every week we should be keeping the Shabbat. But he has actually come in and actually came with a statement let's say because unfortunately not everyone keeps uh the Sabbath in of its own right. So just to give strength and it happens to be 250 years and we're going to explore a bit of with regards to American Jewish history in its own right over there. But he states over Donald Trump 45th and 47th president of the United States of America reading from Shabbat250.org or in a special honor of 250 glorious years of American independence. And on the weekend of re rededicate 250, a national jubilee of prayer, praise and thanksgiving, Jewish Americans are encouraged to observe a national Sabbath. From sundown on May 15th to nightfall on May 16th, friends, families, and communities of all backgrounds may come together in gratitude for our great nation. This day will recognize the sacred Jewish tradition of setting aside time for rest, reflection, and gratitude to the Almighty. I further call on all Americans to celebrate their faith and freedom throughout this year during this month and especially on Shabbat to celebrate our 20 2 on our 250th year.

[00:01:56]Now there's full of different pledges that actually come on and it shows different uh let's just state uh in of its own right different places in of its own right but let's explore a bit about 250 years you know of America you know the Americas can uh let's just say include various different places in of its own right but really the main synagogue which he actually spoke about himself in his TV presentation was a Newport synagogue also known as Torah which I think is very much connected to the mikvah Israel congregation. So let's explore a bit of the history within regards to the Americas in its own right and uh we know that I think the first people that will pretty much very much come uh to the United States of America were from Portuguese Brazilian Jewish immigrants from Holland and there'll be a first synagogue we're going to talk about today. We're going to concentrate on a few uh synagogues in it turn right famous ones uh something that we have to point out. There's uh we we're going to take a few uh let's say lines in of it right of uh different places over here friends. The first one I wanted to speak about is congregation Israel. We're going to speak about the Torah or synagogue also for a minute, but Congregation Sherit Israel is a very very large one if I'm not mistaken and uh probably one of the oldest ones also in the United States of America. It's a Spanish and Portuguese synagogue I think based on 70th West Street if I'm not mistaken at Central Park West. Now it's famous synagogue. It was established in 1654 in New Amsterdam by Jews who arrived from Dutch Brazil and it's one of the oldest congregations I think the United States of America we have to point out and uh first group of Spanish Portuguese Jewish people were 23 refugees from Dutch Brazil if I'm not mistaken. So uh it was not until the year 1730 that the congregation was able to build a synagogue of its own and it was built on a mill street and the mill street synagogue was said to have access to nearby spring which was used as mikvah for ritual baths if I'm not mistaken and since 1730s the congregation was placed in five different places in return there was founding of major Jewish uh institutions you could say in return right would share it will be responsible for and uh many of famous rabbis that were in part of Sherit. One of the famous rabbis in American jewelry without a doubt who we should speak about is Rabbi Henry Pereira Mendes. He lived between 1852 to 1937. He was an American rabbi born in Birmingham in England and he died in New York City also known as Haim Pereira Mendes. Let's speak about him because he's a key figure let's just say in of its own right. He was born into an old Spanish Portuguese rabbitic family. His father was a famous uh Rabbi Abraham Pereira Mendes who was rabbi of Kingston and Montgo Bay if I'm not mistaken. Now his grandfather was another famous Rabbi David de Arun Solah who was a famous rabbi and an author that was born in Amsterdam. The Dolat family is a very famous family we have to point out in of its own right. the distinguished family that actually uh came from Safhardim who immigrated from Spain in 1492 uh on expulsion of the Jews from the country by Ferdinand and Isabella. He was David Aaron Dol is a key person. He entered a bait mash very very young in Amsterdam received a rabbitic diploma uh from de a who was a famous rabbi at time he had a very decorated rabbitic career we could say in of its own right he would become one of the ministers of beismar synagogue under the famous rabbi Rafael Meldullah and uh would give over various different famous sermons and he was a rabbi that would publish many different books significant publications was a prayer book in 1836 and 185 52 and uh various other books he would actually be very much part of uh publication of English translation of scriptures for example and would translate into various different languages and was known as a famous rabbi. He'll have connections with many of the great rabbis in America if I'm not mistaken. He actually got married to someone of named Ra or Rebecca Deesia Meldullah uh interesting enough who was the eldest daughter of Rabbi Rafael Malddullah who was a chief rabbi of the United Kingdom and they had sons including Rabbi Abraham Dullah who was would go on to become prominent rabbi in Canada become an author an academic let's just say and one of the foremost leaders of orthodox Judaism in America uh Samuel Dola who in 1863 was elected to succeed did his father as a robot of smarks and various other descendants and was as reverend Ibraham prayer uh Menddees would have key role in America in the early years there was Roy Dr. Frederick Dol Mendes who was a rabbi and author and an editor and also Rabbi Dr. Henry Perez who we're trying to concentrate on for a minute. So uh let's say a bit more with in regards to about Henry. He was educated in Northwick College at University College of London. Uh he studied and graduated from medical school. Uh and eventually uh he would actually be one of the people that would start the Jewish Theological Seminary of America. We have to point out in the early years when he formed it, it was an Orthodox uh college at that point in time. They followed the orthodox let's say stream in of its own right. So we're talking here who in 1877 he would take the premiership role at congregation elit Israel serving till 1920 a very large amount of time and his successor was rabbi David the solapool who we'll speak about in a minute but he's a key rabbi let's just say in American uh jewelry in overturn right he was a professor of homalytics at the Shiva Isaac Elan for several years also and gave over vast music contributions We have to point out composing settings for Kazan and the choir of the famous Sherit Israel synagogue and did vast amounts of uh organizational activities. Robert Henry did. He was one of the founders of the New York board of ministers uh Jewish theological seminary. Uh he joined Rabbi Sabatio Moras in establishing the Jewish theological seminary uh the months fury home in 1884. There was Orthodox Union.

[00:08:26]He promoted the formation of union of Orthodox Congregations of the United States and Canada and various other groups and he was voice let's just say for Jewish returning from the homeland and uh he for the homeland and he was asked by Theodore Herzel to spread the Zionist cause in America and become one of the founders of the federation of American Zionists if I'm not mistaken he would take on and would write various writings on that specific topic and on various other let's say topics in of its own right He's one person I wanted to speak about was a key uh figure. But let's go back now. Yeah. So you can see he was uh very famous of the time Rabbi Henry Pereira Mendes. But let's speak a bit more about the congregation Sherit Israel. It was a very famous congregation and uh we do we have a revenant of uh let's very very famous rabbis in of its own right. So uh let's explore some of they there's a historical burial ground to the synagogue in its own right which is very much chronicled over you can find out but they had famous rabbis including Robert Benjamin Wolf Robert Gers Mendes Caxis who would be uh in the very much the early years someone we've spoken about in great detail Robert Moses Pxto Robert Isaac Cax would be between 1828 to 1839 Robert Jackers Judah Lions who was a co-founder of the Mount Sinai hospital was between 1839 to 1877, Robert Henry S. Jacobs will take a few year uh position. Uh next up between 74 to 1876.

[00:09:59]Rabbi Henry Pere Mendes for 43 years nearly. Now Rabbi David Solapool will have two stints. uh he was originally hired as an assistant rabbi in 1907 would leave in 1919 and a year later after Ry Mendes retired the synagogue went through a succession of candidates and he would return in 1921 all the way till 1955 we'll be we'll speak about him in due course Robert Louis Gerstein will be for between 1956 to 1988 another key figure let's just say within regards to uh to American jewelry in of its own That's something we have to point out. Now, next up, we'll have Robert Mark Angel between 1969 to 2007. Then, Robert Heim Angel, uh, I don't know if they were both at the same time uh, main rabbi or in what capacity was it? The full premiership between 1995 to 2013 mayor of the Sherit Israel currently is Rabbi. They've had notable khazanim including also not just Isaac Toro, Reverend Isaac Toro, also Albert Gabi who's rabbi emiritus of the spadic congregation mikvah Israel which we'll speak about in due course and Rabbi Dan Ibraham Lopez Cordo who is historic who was cousin of historic Spanish Portuguese synagogue in they have many different let's say famous members that's something that we have to point out. So that's one of the synagogues we should speak about. There was the Toro O synagogue. We did actually a special feature within regards to that. So I recommend everyone to look into that.

[00:11:35]And other synagogues will include the famous Mikvah Israel synagogue in the United States of America. Another let's just say one that uh very much would stick into mind with uh with many many people as another magnificent synov. We personally know the rabbi of the community also. So uh very very interesting. So congregation Mikv Israel I think was traces his history all the way back to 1740. Uh a Spanish Portuguese congregation of the right of Amsterdam esnoga. Uh we have to point out and uh I think it's on the 44 north fourth street if I'm not mistaken. It's located in Philadelphia's old his city historic district and uh much history can be said within regards to it uh and the founding of it which I recommend everyone to look into detail within regards so it's very very interesting we can explore some of the famous rabbi of this synagogue also that was early years in its own right we have to point out we did mention about Gersham Robert Reverend Gersham Mendes Yakis I think would have a connection with the synagogue and uh another prominent member in the early years was someone named Ephrime Hart who was an American merchant who helped organize a board of stock brokers known as the New York Stock Exchange. You would have connection to the synagogue. Manuel Josephson for example uh would come to Mikva Israel from New York in 1776. He actually petitioned the school the synagogue board to build a mikvah in 1784 most notably and uh very very interesting. So other key figures of the synagogue in general was someone named Jacob Rafael Cohen, Rabbi Jacob Rafael Cohen who was a rabbi in England, Canada and the United States of America.

[00:13:24]Another, let's say key rabbi he would become of congregation mikvah Israel.

[00:13:28]Something that we very much have to point out. uh he was replaced by another famous Robert Emanuel Nunes Carvalo who between 1771 to 1817.

[00:13:40]He was a famous uh he was actually from England from London born in 1771 and uh eventually become a kazan for the Jewish community. He would immigrate from Portugal, I believe, to Amsterdam and to Britain if I'm not mistaken. And he'd become the cousin of Charleston's Jewish community and uh was selected the famous cousin of congregation Mikva Israel I believe in 1814. So that would be very very uh exciting position. He actually had a famous nephew who would go on to become famous artist, photographer, explorer, inventor Solman Nunes Carvello if I'm not mistaken. So he passed away in Philadelphia in 1817. Let's look at some more key people. We've spoken about Reverend Gersham on various occasions before in the era when they were between 1825 to 1860. There'll be various different famous rabbis. Uh the synagogue leader between uh in 1882 will be someone named Isaac Leser if I'm not mistaken. Someone we've spoken about before who was an American Orthodox Jewish religious leader, a teacher, a scholar and a publisher and helped found the Jewish press of America if I'm not mistaken. And uh then most famously Rabbi Sabato Moray uh who lived between 1823 to 1897. He will become the minister of mikvah Israel in the year 1851. So he was famous rabbi. He was the founder of Jewish theological seminary which we have to point out was a center of education for Orthodox rabbis in the earlier years. He was actually Italian.

[00:15:10]He was born in Levorno and the family itself of rigid came from Portugal if I'm not mistaken and he was a lengthened kazan in Philadelphia owing to the withdraw withdrawal of Isaac Lisa. Uh and uh this was in the year 1850 and uh yeah I think he would have uh a role in the formation of Jewish theological seminary.

[00:15:33]He was also a write many many different works and translations essays in of its own right and let's say he was one of the founders you could say father of Italian Jewish studies in America so he's another key person that we must speak about today the era of 1860 to 1909 we'll see that 117th 7th street within regards to it and uh everyone we're exploring a bit about the American Jewish history really about the Spanish Portuguese the older communities in its own right. Uh we're going back to the root because it happens to be 250 year commemoration and the president of America is asking for people to uh observe it and that was a period in turn right synagogue time period. Uh there was a religious leader I think someone named Leonim El Mal who would live between 1873 to 19 72. He was founder of the Philadelphia board of rabbis and 11 time Jewish society in Philadelphia. He actually came from Gibralta to Mikva, Israel, interesting enough. So he's someone that we maybe will record a video about at a later stage of time. uh I I would definitely very much uh and there are articles within regards to him and uh let's just say you can find much more information within regards and uh hopefully we will record a presentation on him also. So that's something that we very much have to point out. Okay.

[00:17:08]There was other people that can Abraham Dubau was famous also in his time. There was a period of 1909 to 1976 where Robert Pereira Mendes of Congress is Henry Pereira Mendes would be doing huge things right there was also a Philadelphia rabbis Bernard Levventhal if I'm not mistaken he was known as a dean of US rabbis if I'm not mistaken and uh another rabbi that will be between 1927 to 1943 was Rabbi a Abraham A Newman who was an American great rabbi I historian. He happened to have also been a college president if I'm not mistaken. He was ordained a rabbi by the JTS Jewish Theological Seminary in America.

[00:17:53]We have to point out and uh would take on various different important positions and someone that maybe we did speak about on various occasions before. Uh there was Rabbi David Jasseron Cardazo who lived between 1896 and 1972. Another famous Dutchborn American spadic rabbi uh be the assistant minister of the Spanish Portuguese in New York City, the oldest synagogue in the United States of America. we have to point out. So uh he's another key rabbi of the synagogue Mikva Israel and uh he was a spiritual leader also the Montafury synagogue in Ram's gate for several years and he actually came origin to assist probabil from 1936 to 1943 if I'm not mistaken and uh yeah very very interesting so he would have a very well decorated uh career in of its own right now Another synagogue we should uh speak about over here today friends and uh you could say that sphadic temple to ferret Israel which I think is based in Los Angeles in California. Now the famous synagogue in turn right it was established in 1920 safic community of Los Angeles if I'm not mistaken uh 600 member families if I'm not mistaken and uh a synagogue calling the sphardic tradition which we must speak about reflecting the history of the spadic community in Los Angeles. I think the first spadic Jews that arrived in Los Angeles was all the way back in 1853. Uh but many spardin will come from Egypt, roads, salonica, Turkey and other regions of the Ottoman Empire. Very very interesting enough. and uh many different leaders will actually come and uh really I think in 1959 spadic community of Los Angeles emerged with vahed society a sphadic brotherhood forming the spadic community and brotherhood of Los Angeles and uh various different nobles and kings would visit the temple including king Juan Carlo the first and queen Sophia of Spain if I'm not mistaken and uh yeah that this would have There was Rabbi J. Shasho Levy for example who would take a uh prominent position at the synagogue and uh there are other famous rabbis. Rabbi Daniel Boskila another famous rabbi of his time. So I think he happens to be a rabbi famously that we have spoken about on various occasions before. So uh he is Rabbi Daniel Boskila I think if I'm not mistaken would head another synagogue over here and he is a spardic. He does give uh various different classes and uh yeah very very interesting over here. So uh anyone tuning in live welcome to our community and uh we really are and celebrate exploring about the history of great spikim and happens to be Shabbat 250 week. So it's an appropriate time to maybe explore just a few highlights of American let's say traditional uh golden uh history in its own right. So Mikva Israel was obviously famous synagogue spardic temple to verit Israel. that we uh have been speaking about that just right now. We talked about other rabbis that would uh take this specific role on to become a head rabbi. There was Rabbi Freriedman of Florence, if I'm not mistaken, Italy, uh who would have a position in time. Rabbi Toby, if I'm not mistaken, another key rabbi of this congregation and uh Rabbi Ibraham Karako, who is another rabbi I believe we've spoken about beforehand.

[00:21:36]He was the first rabbi of this congregation reported over another famous rabbi friends this happened to have been so uh and spadic temple Israel I I recommend everyone to uh learn more about this famous synagogue in of its own right based in America so that's uh very very interesting so friends anyone tuning in live please don't forget to subscribe to the channel and uh join our ever growing community over here as we are in the territory of United States of America celebrating the Shabbat 250 uh Shabbat on there's going to be this week where people are being urged to keep the Sabbath and turn right.

So uh other rabbis we can talk about famous American rabbis that will make the mark in America is someone named Rabbi Albert Gabby who would become a rabbi in Mikva Israel we should speak about for a minute and I think he's Rabbi Emiritus if I'm not mistaken most recently he was actually born in Egypt in 1949 I think his father was born in Baghdad came from a line of rabbis and uh I think his maternal grandmother was born in Greece and would speak Latino and he was a famous rabbi he would unfortunately imprisoned in Egypt. But we can just see the greatness about him, how he was after being released, he would immigrate to United States of America and would end up becoming a very very famous rabbi, especially coming to New York City in 1971, receiving a phenomenal education and then afterwards, not just after attending Yeshiva University, he would become a kazan of the famous congregation charity Israel. uh he would then go on to uh travel to Erit Israel to Jerusalem and study at the Shvar Spartic Center under Rabbi Sam Kasim and will graduate and will become a spiritual and music student of another famous person Rabbi Abraham Lopez Kardo uh who we're going to speak about in a minute and then since 1988 he was a rabbi of Spanish Portuguese congregation Mikva Israel and uh I think he would in the year 2023 would eventually be named that Rabbi Emiritus and Rabbi Ysef Zarigian would actually take the premiership role inside the synagogue and he's fluent in more than six languages let's just say in of its own right who is uh another key figure you could say in American uh history within regards to the synagogue history is a famous khazan a caner some named Abraham Lopez Lopez Cardardoo a Spanish Portuguese synagogue in New York City of Sherit Israel born in Amsterdam. He was a greatgrandson of the chief rabbi of the spar community of Amsterdam and son of Joseph Lopez Cardoo was a famous musician and leader apparently of the boy choir of the Spanish Portuguese synagogue and uh he was appointed actually by Queen Wilmina to become the rabbi of the spider community in Surinam. uh this was in 1939 and very very interesting and he would meet his wife over there and he became assistant husband in sherit Israel in 1946 if I'm not mistaken so he passed away eventually in the year 2006 he's another key let's say uh rabbi that we we must speak about here inside this history presentation now there's many synagogues other synagogues we can uh speak about here from the United States of America We spoke about the Toro synagogue in a separate video. We have to point out and uh spadi communities definitely did uh come and uh grow it rapidly in various different uh places in the United States of America. That's something I will definitely uh point out over here. So that's very very interesting. So anyone tuning in, welcome to our community as we explore and celebrate the Jewish community especially of olden days because now it's a 250 commemoration we have to point out. So that's uh very very interesting. So many many different people rub on him that we could point out to speak about here for a minute and uh the collection is so let's just say vast that many would make say their names in it right in proposition. So that's very there were famous philanthropists all throughout the years we have to point out and uh various other important people that uh would take on various different a premium positions all over let's just say the different places now one other American key personality businessman is someone named Isaac Shalom which make his mark across the world he was born in 1887 he passed away in 1968 he was an American businessman, philanthropist and one of the leaders of the spadic and Syrian Jewish communities in New York. He was a pioneer of revitalizing Jewish education in a global manner during the 20th century. He was actually born in Aleppo in Syria and immigrated to United States of America in 1907. He became beca became a textile peddler. Founded the I shalom and co if I'm not mistaken. He would take on real community leadership especially the Syrian Jewish community in Brooklyn through the 20th century immigration if I'm not mistaken and he founded famously the Men David Yeshiva uh at that point in time this was in 1946 1970s uh at that point in time there was there was announcement of an elementary school the Isaac Shalom Elementary School in his honor and I think Min David Bish yes serves approximately 2,000 stu students from preschool through high school today.

He would serve as assistant rabbi of Rabbi Henry Pereira Mendes and eventually 1921 he become the senior rabbi. He would write various different works in of his own rights in his congregation.

Apparently on D-Day during World War II he delivered a a broadcast remarks in support of the brave troops fighting overseas reported over and would serve as a rabbi till 1955 and was an involved rabbi emiritus for the rest of his life. So you can see he was very well decorated and uh extremely extremely uh phenomenal and very very busy rabbi in of its own right. He was very very much working in Zionism just like Robert Henry Pereira Mendes was. He advocated for Jewish nationhood and uh he and his wife Rabinit Tamar were leaders of Hadasa's young Judea movement and Rabanit Tamar would go on to become national president of Hadasa Hadasa really promoting the Zionistic cause let's just say in its own right and would take on various different uh important positions just within regards to that realm that's something that we have to very much point out now most famously Rabbi Dulapool will actually write and translate and edit a spadic prayer book for the Union of Spartic Congregations in 1954.

[00:39:33]And apparently he would also be the author of the Ashkenazic prayer book for the rebbitical council of America which are these books prayer books are still used today and he write various important works Jewish history in colonial America.

That's something that we very much have to point out but there'll be that connection with Rabbi Dpool over here.

So there's an entire list especially if you look on Wikipedia of famous rabbis that were of the earlier years and you can see there was a lot a lot of famous rabbis uh also in various connected sherit Israel most likely and uh other places also one more rabbi just to conclude about uh I think we should speak about him not necessarily rabbi another key figure let's say in the earlier part of uh Jewish history was someone named Isaac Pinto live between 1720 1791 who immigrated to the province of New York when he was only 20 and uh he became member of congregation sherit Israel in the early years and was a crucial figure in the colonial history of United States America. He prepared apparently the first sided or Jewish prayer book published in America which was also the first English translation of a sidor. So we can see Antu would take on various important roles at different points of time and was important and was very close to famous other important figures. That's something that we very much have to point out over here friends. So uh very very interesting and there's many more people we can bring out over here to celebrate let's just say the Jewish community of yester year. the famous physician and writer in the earlier time John Dueri obviously Isaac Toro Judo we have to speak about and uh there's so many more over here friends I think I thought it would be a special edition if you do do desend from any famous rabbis famous personalities please send me an email I'll really really appreciate it if you uh let us know more information so that will be really really appreciated And we're a community.
