R. Bryski is a great man!

I was sleepy and clicked on your lecture by accident. After 2 minutes I saw that this lecture was over 1 hour long!!! I'd listen to it a few more minutes, then go take a nap. Instead, you kept me listening for the entire time.

The Finest

This was the very finest lecture/story-telling I have ever heard in my life. I enjoy them all, but this one...there needs to be a hall of fame. I hope everyone that would be touched to their soul by this gets to see and/or hear it. Thank you so much Rabbi. It will stay in my memory.

History vs. Memory

Dear Rabbi Bryski
I migrated to Israel at age 75. Why did I wait so long? That I can't explain. I have finally come home after living in many parts of the USA where I always felt a little "odd.".

I am so grateful for your lecture about being connected to all the names in the Tenach. It is hard for me to relate to them. I think now it will be easier.
Thank you again for sharing your wisdom with me and giving me courage to be alive.

I gave the tzedakah

Inspired by your lecture, I gave tzedakah in memory of my mother - I hope it somehow lifts her up higher.

	History vs. Memory How We View Our Collective Past as Jews
A compelling argument for the case that Jewish education must portray our ancestors not as individuals who once lived, but as people who are alive today.
