On the first day of Rosh Hashonah we read the Haftarah from the Book of Samuel about
Hannah, the mother of Samuel the Prophet. When Hannah was childless, she would go to Shiloh
to the Portable Temple to beseech God for a child. Rabbi Radinsky will discuss the lessons we
learn from Hannah who is a model of prayer even in our modern world.
