Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating story of Har Sinai Congregation, a Jewish community in Baltimore, Maryland. Founded in 1842 as a protest against the rigid orthodoxy of the city's existing synagogue, Har Sinai became a pioneering force in the Reform movement within American Judaism. The author chronicles the congregation's early struggles for recognition and acceptance, including its separation from the larger Jewish community and its own cemetery. The book examines the critical role of Rabbi David Einhorn, who arrived in Baltimore in 1855. Einhorn, a renowned scholar and orator, became a leading figure in the Reform movement nationwide, articulating its philosophical foundation and its commitment to reconciling traditional Jewish values with the realities of modern life. His passionate sermons and his commitment to social justice, including his opposition to slavery, are vividly portrayed. The book also discusses the congregation's development under subsequent rabbis and its eventual adoption of a new charter and synagogue. Through its compelling narrative, the book offers a unique glimpse into the emergence of Reform Judaism in America and the challenges and triumphs faced by those who dared to embrace a more progressive approach to their faith.
