The Reb Barry Blog

Rabbi Barry LeffI welcome my friend and colleague Rabbi Barry Leff, of B'nai Israel in Toledo Ohio, to the rabbinical blogosphere. Reb Barry has converted his wonderful personal website to a blog that can be accessed at www.neshamah.net.

I have enjoyed Reb Barry's thoughtful insights on all matters when we get together for lunch in Ann Arbor, where he takes a weekly yoga class.

One of the more interesting resources on his blog is his teshuvah (Jewish legal decision) on Eating Dairy Meals in Restaurants that do not have Kosher supervision.

I look forward to being rabbinic colleagues in Ohio with Reb Barry next month when I officially become rabbi of Congregation Agudas Achim in Columbus. However, we will only be Ohio colleagues for a year as Barry and his wife will soon be making aliyah to Israel.
