This morning I share the message of our guest speaker at ADATH yesterday, Tovia Roness, a remarkable young man who served as a medic in the Givati Brigade in Gaza. He paid tribute to his commander, Major Eyal Shuminov, who fell in battle last April, 2024. The lessons he shared are relevant to every one of us, though they were dramatically relevant to Tovia and his fellow soldiers. We are reminded, again, of the outstanding moral principles of the IDF, and the greatness of its leaders like Major Shuminov.

Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation. We take great pleasure in welcoming everyone with a warm smile, while sharing inspiration through prayer, study, and friendship.

Rabbi Whitman shares his thoughts and inspirations through online lectures and shiurim, which are available on:
