- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: C-30346 PAROCHIAL PUPILS VISIT SYNAGOGUE KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Rabbi William B. Silverman, spiritual leader of Congregation B’nai Jehudah, explains Jewish customs, ceremonies and beliefs to some 300 students from two Kansas City, Mo., parochial schools. The pupils, from Lillis High School and Visitation Elementary School, visited the synagogue in connection with their Scripture studies. On the table (from right) are the Torah, Judaism’s sacred symbol that includes the first five books of the Bible and an eight-branched candelabrum known as the menorah. Placed in front of the menorah is the shofar, the ram’s horn used to call believers to worship. Books of prayer and a scroll of the Book of Esther also are shown.
