"Yedid Nefesh" is a collection of my recent poetry as well as posts on Judaism, Jewish life and spirituality in general. Please check in regularly and feel free to share your comments.
By way of introduction: I'm the rabbi at Jewish Reconstructionist Congregation in Evanston, IL. The opinions I share on my blogs, however, are mine alone. They don't reflect the positions of my congregation or any other organization with which I am affiliated.

who is wise?

the walls between yourselves and
the other nations learn from their
ways gain knowledge from their
experience grow compassion from their
travail when you worship
your god look deep
into their eyes and know
that you are worshiping
theirs as
well
(Deuteronomy 12:29-31)
