On this Rosh Hashanah, Rabbi Zuckerman reflected on the extraordinary resilience of the Jewish people—from the displaced persons camps of 1945, where life and learning were rebuilt out of devastation, to the challenges we face today after October 7. Through stories of survival, renewal, and his own journey to Israel, Rabbi Zuckerman explored a timeless truth: “Those who have a why to live can bear almost any how.” As we enter the new year, he calls on us to root ourselves in purpose, to live by the teachings of our tradition, and to take the wheel of our own lives.
