INTRODUCTION TO RABBI BENJAMIN
 |
Rabbi Fred Benjamin received his ordination at
The Jewish Theological Seminary of America in 1987. Two years of Rabbincal School
were spent at Jerusalem's Hebrew University. His undergraduate studies were at
The Ohio State University where he earned a BS in psychology with an emphasis in early
child development.
A Rabbi for 20 years, Rabbi Benjamin has extensive experience in Jewish camping, formal
and informal education, has guided archeological digs in Israel and, due to his musical
background, has even served as a visiting Cantor. Rabbi Benjamin moved to Israel
in 1995 and worked as a guide and taught at Young Judea's Year Course. In 1999 he moved
to the Boston area and upon accepting the position as our Rabbi, moved to Milton.
His daughter, Yael, is in college and his son, Noah, is a High School senior.
He is an avid sportsman who plays league softball in the summer and ice-hockey year round.
He also enjoys tennis, Scrabble and taking bike trips....his favorite was from
Vienna to Prague.
