At this moment of great moral reckoning, we are speaking out with one voice to fulfill the most sacred obligation in Jewish tradition – pikuach nefesh, saving a life

Passover 5784/2024

Erez Crossing

On Friday, April 26th, a delegation from Rabbis for Ceasefire from the US joined Israeli Rabbis and Jews in a public attempt to deliver food aid to the people of Gaza through the Erez border crossing. As we marched towards the crossing with bags of rice and flour, we chanted the words of the Passover haggadah: כל דכפין ייתי וייכול — Kol dichfin yetei v’yeichol. Let all who are hungry come and eat.
