Kadosh most often is translated as holy, but what does that really mean? We use this word with almost all of our rituals, most of our mitzvot, and throughout the Sabbath. In this class, we will take some time to consider what Kadosh / holy meant in Biblical times, what it has meant throughout the ages, and what it might mean for our present moment.

Rabbi Michael Schorin earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan and was ordained by the Jewish Theological Seminary. His early passion for hospital chaplaincy led him to help establish a clinical program for rabbinical students at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and become one of the first rabbis in the country to complete a chaplaincy residency. Rabbi Schorin holds a Doctor of Ministry from Chicago Theological Seminary and a master’s degree in Pastoral Counseling from Loyola University Chicago. A Board Certified Chaplain and former Vice President of Neshama: Association of Jewish Chaplains, he served for 15 years at Northwestern Memorial Hospital and nine years with CJE SeniorLife. After relocating to Florida, Rabbi Schorin became Lee Health’s first full-time rabbi/chaplain, serving for more than five years at Gulf Coast Medical Center in Fort Myers. He now works as a psychotherapist. Rabbi Schorin and his wife, Jan, moved to Boca and love being a be part of the wonderful B’nai Torah Congregation.
