Day after Jerusalem synagogue attack, site is symbol of faith and determination
(The Christian Science Monitor) Dov Sorotzkin was awakened Tuesday by gunfire between Palestinian assailants and Israeli police at his synagogue.
On Wednesday, he and his wife returned to their place of worship to celebrate their newborn son’s brit mila, or circumcision.
He describes the ceremony as a symbol of the willingness to give oneself to God—just as the four rabbis were doing when they were killed Tuesday morning here in Har Nof, an Orthodox Jewish neighborhood of West Jerusalem.
