Yitz Greenberg

Benedict Glazer sought to
ameliorate the prejudice and
hatred dividing the city. He
invited members of Detroit's
Protestant clergy to hear an
authority on Judaism and to
spend the day sharing one
another's traditions. The in-
stitute grew slowly during
the war years; by the time of
Rabbi Glazer's death in 1952,
the institute had become a
tradition at Beth El.
In addition to Rabbi
Greenberg's appearance at
the institute, he will be with
the congregation as scholar-
in-residence during the Feb.
9-11 weekend. He will deliver
a sermon 8 p.m. Feb. 9 on
"What's Right and Wrong
About Reform Judaism." At
11 a.m. Feb. 10, he will speak
on "What's Right and Wrong
About Orthodoxy." The focus
of his 10 a.m. Feb. 11 lecture
will be "Struggles for Jewish
Unity." A full breakfast, for
which there is a charge, will
be served at 9:30 a.m.
As the founder of CLAL:
The National Jewish Center
for Learning and Leadership,
Rabbi Greenberg has devoted
much of his efforts to pro-
moting intra-Jewish dialogue.
A Harvard Ph.D. and scholar,
he has published numerous
books including a study of
Judaism based on an analysis

of the Sabbath and the
holidays.
The public is invited. For in-
formation, call the temple,
