  Rabbi Samuel Adelman, a distinguished American pulpit rabbi, poet and activist, who founded Torah Pilgrimage, forerunner of the NCSY, and led congregations in Dover, New Jersey, Morristown, New Jersey, and Newport News, Virginia, and finally, the Beth Medrash Hagadol Synagogue in Denver, Colorado.

  Activist for Judaism and social justice who worked vigorously on numerous commissions on the state level to advance civil rights, fair housing and care for mentally retarded children, and led the first delegation of Rabbis to Communist Russia in 1956.

  Proud father of four, Rabbi Adelman died suddenly in 1966, at the early age of 50. But this prolific writer lived a remarkably accomplished life, and his eloquence continues to inspire those who remember him, and those who chance upon his writings.
