Year after year, this landmark synagogue on Jaffa Street opposite the Mahane Yehuda market has been open from dawn each day for the thousands of Jews of all ages and backgrounds who come to daven, study in the Beis Medrash, and enjoy a hot or cold drink. And for the past century, its extraordinary handcrafted sundial has prominently signaled the precise time for prayers and each minute of the day.
For over 100 years, 100% of the Zohorei Chamah Synagogue’s operating expenses have been covered by individual donations. To this day, descendants of its founder Rabbi Shmuel Levy have voluntarily overseen the upkeep of the building. Today, the decaying structure has begun to be renovated. Your help is needed in the crucial efforts to keep this rare treasure alive for generations to come!
SECURE THIS JEWEL FOR PRESENT & FUTURE GENERATIONS
