Show OHI Isaac Rose 23 July 82 sl:6 minutes to a sermon, which either covered some current events, some current topics, or was strictly limited to the old history.

And he would try to point out why this happened , and what was behind [it]. Then [he'd] put in maybe some other perspecitves into it.

SF Really? IR Yeah. They fired questions at the rabbi. Asked him questions about rituals. Things they didn't understand or things they wanted to know. And the rabbi answered them the best he could.

They feel they are 24 hours on call. And even (when] they come to a Jewish house |
