Times 1952: Rabbi Zev Zahavy Named Rabbi of Zichron Ephraim (Park East) Synagogue

About 57 years ago, the Times published this news about my father's appointment as rabbi at Zichron Ephraim, now called the Park East Synagogue.

Over the next few years The Times went went on to publish accounts of about 200 of my dad's sermons.

He spoke out frequently and eloquently on how he thought the world ought to confront contemporary issues of his day from a progressive Biblical and Jewish point of view.

I collected the Times' reports. You can read them online here.
