Kaua‘i Gets It’s First Torah Scroll
Kilauea, HI — A huge simcha (celebration) was held at Papa‘a Bay Ranch on Wednesday.
The celebration marked the arrival and blessing of the first orthodox torah scroll made in Israel specially for Chabad of Kaua‘i, members said.
There are other Jewish congregations on Kauai, notably the Jewish Community of Kaua‘i, however, this is the only orthodox Jewish congregation.
The blessing had a Hawaiian flavor as well, as kumu Kelvin Ho participated in the event, along with some of his Native Hawaiian students.
Gabbi (rabbi’s helper) Richard Siegel stitched the final stitch of the orthodox kosher torah scroll, to symbolically mark its completion, under the watchful eye of Rabbi Michoel Goldman.
The new owners of Papa‘a Bay Ranch are orthodox Jews from San Francisco, and made their property available for the event.
