Rabbi Buchdahl and Cantor Schwartz Sing Bob Dylan’s “Forever Young”
Song of the Week • 3m 39s
Rabbi Nahman of Breslov once said, “Never get old!” We all change as we age, but why can’t that be a blessing? Aging not only adds to our life experience and wisdom, but it gives us opportunities to find the child in ourselves and continue to light the sparks of curiosity and joy from our youth. In honor of Rabbi Cosgrove’s 50th birthday in April 2022, Cantor Schwartz and Central Synagogue’s Rabbi Buchdahl honored us with their rendition of “Forever Young” by Bob Dylan. May this song reignite the spark in you. Shabbat Shalom!
