Coinciding with the start of The Three Weeks, Rabbi Yosef C. Golding, known more widely for his work with RCCS and Agudath Israel of America, has collaborated with ArtScroll to bring his father-in-law’s amazing life story to future generations.

Three people are being questioned after police say a group used water pistols to spray worshipers outside the  Young Israel of Teaneck, New Jersey, last week, hurling anti-Semitic slurs when they were asked to stop.
