Our rabbi, Daniel Schweber, explained to the students what happened last month and why it is important for us to show our support for the women who are trying to pray the way they want to.
The atmosphere at the Kotel, the feeling that all those women praying around me were also turning to God and pouring out their hearts to Him, inspires me with the joy of Jewish fraternity. Here is one place in which, shoulder to shoulder, all the hearts are calling to God.
This Thanksgiving, let us heed the Torah of Margalit and follow in the footsteps of Rivka. Their lessons can be immediately turned into concrete acts of chesed.
