In mid-August, Rabbi Dovid Asher gave a yearly class in memory of his late sister of blessed memory, Rebbetzin* Elana Rosenblatt.<\/p>\n
*A distinguished title; literally, the wife of a Rabbi.<\/em><\/p>\n This year\u2019s lecture discussed the importance of interpersonal relationships within a Torah context.<\/p>\n Rabbi Asher also shared memories of his sister. To learn more about Elana, please see an article – https:\/\/aish.com\/48890727\/<\/em><\/a> – She wrote about her experiences, as well as Rabbi Asher\u2019s brother-in-law\u2019s published book – https:\/\/www.eichlers.com\/why-bad-things-don-t-happen-to-good-people-hardcover.html<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n The following Shabbat, KBI celebrated the Synagogue\u2019s many new members – those who joined within the past year – by sponsoring a large kiddush<\/em> in their honor.<\/p>\n KBI had even more to celebrate that Shabbat with the presence of distinguished scholar-in-residence, Rabbi Michael Broyde, for whom kiddush<\/em> was also sponsored.<\/p>\n Rabbi Broyde, a professor of law at Emory School of Law, among his other positions, spoke on a variety of topics throughout the weekend.<\/p>\n Fairly recently, KBI instituted a new feature to its weekly newsletter entitled KBI Klips, which are brief (usually 2-3 minutes) video segments from a variety of speakers. During one week, for example, Rabbi Asher and Mr. Drew Burrichter of St. Mary\u2019s Hospital joined together to discuss Rabbi Asher\u2019s role as a chaplain at St. Mary\u2019s.
