How should leaders hand off the reins to their successors? And how should parents pass on their legacy to their children? One of July’s more fascinating Torah portions is Pinchas (Numbers 25:10-30:1), which grapples with both how daughters can inherit in a patriarchal system and how Moses should enable Joshua to succeed him. Definitely relevant to today’s politics!

We asked the Solomons, who always have the very best costumes for our Purim celebration, why they chose us.
"We were welcomed to practice our Judaism our way, and were able to craft B'nai Mitzvot that were meaningful to our family. Kol Hadash has been a great place to teach our children about Judaism without baggage."
