Notes

  • "A rabbi leads services, gives sermons, educates children, and counsels the congregants in a synagogue. Not all rabbis lead congregations; they are trained for religious leadership and may work in other roles, including teacher, scholar, counselor, mohel, or mashgiach. The various movements of Judaism each have their own seminaries, which offer training and rabbinical ordination (semikhah). For example, the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College is the Reconstructionist movement’s seminary. The Conservative, Reform, and Reconstructionist movements all ordain women as rabbis." (JPS)
