Rabbi Heschel Greenberg
Rabbi Heschel Greenberg is the founder and director of the Jewish Discovery Center in Buffalo, New York, and a senior lecturer at the Institute of Jewish Studies. He has taught in Buffalo for more than fifty years.
He teaches the whole range of Jewish learning — the weekly Torah portion, Talmud, the Rambam’s Mishneh Torah, Jewish law, Kabbalah and Chassidic philosophy — to beginners and advanced students alike. His long-running series include Rambam In-Depth, Torah Study: Beyond the Reading, an advanced Talmud class and Basics of Judaism 101.
Rabbi Greenberg is the author of books including Tefillin — Judaism’s Crown and of more than fifty scholarly papers in rabbinic journals, as well as hundreds of popular articles. He has lectured across the United States, Canada, Australia and South Africa, and for years reached a wide audience through his weekly television program.
His aim has always been to bring the highest ideas to the broadest audiences — elevating the way people live and feel by elevating the way they think. Today his classes reach students everywhere through video, The Rabbi Greenberg Show podcast and written essays.
Rabbi Heschel Greenberg should not be confused with Rabbi Irving “Yitz” Greenberg or other rabbis named Greenberg.
