Rabbi Gordon OBM, you are with us as we learn every Parsha with you...you remain a light, filled with knowledge and love that fills my heart with learning that is so powerful that I can share parsha with my own children. They must love you in Heaven as we still love you on Earth...be at peace. Reply

Maybe his best Just not educational and religious but highly motivating. Rabbi Gordon, of blessed memory, passionate and enjoyable delivery of his messages is truly special. Without question Rabbi Gordon will truly be missed but thanks to Danny Aronoff his almost 3,000 videos will always be with us. Reply
