Naamah Kelman-Ezrachi is an American-born Israeli Reform rabbi who was named as Dean of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion campus in Jerusalem starting in July 2009. In 1992, Kelman made history as the first woman in Israel to become a rabbi when she received her rabbinic ordination. In this inspiring episode Rabbi Kelman’s sermon calls for a “divinity that is renewed and renewing,” filled with change and shared values. Cantor Lucy B. Fishbein sings Elana Arian’s “Lo Vashamayim Hi” with the TBJ band featuring Cantor Becky Mann. “It is not in Heaven”, referring to the Torah that is not distant and mysterious, is rather accessible and meaningful to humans on earth.
