What is kehuna? Often translated as “priesthood,” the role of the Jewish kohanim extends far beyond service in the Temple. A kohen represents God on earth, carrying moral and educational responsibilities alongside ritual duties. This book presents a holistic vision of the essence of kehuna and explores how both kohanim and non-kohanim can strive to embody its ideals.
To Stand and Serve is dedicated to the memory of Marc Weinberg z”l, who lived the ideals of kehuna and represented God in this world until his tragic and untimely passing. The volume features contributions from Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks; the rashei yeshiva of Yeshivat Har Etzion—Rav Yehuda Amital z”l, Rav Aharon Lichtenstein z”l, and Rav Mosheh Lichtenstein shlit”a—as well as from friends and students.
