  • About Us

    The Hebrew Institute of Riverdale (the “Congregation”), an Orthodox Congregation, is

    founded on the basic tenet that being a Jew is both complementary and compatible to modern

    life. It is committed to the halacha as prescribed in the Shulchan Aruch and prevailing halachic

    standards (“Halacha”), and maintains that Jewish law is by far the best vehicle for a Jew to

    achieve a life of meaning, purpose, happiness and responsibility within the framework of a

    supportive community, and that Jewish law is a developing, flexible and tolerant system of law

    that has belief in G-d and the Torah as its core value and is unwavering in its commitment to

    social justice for all humankind.
