Reflections on Balfour 100
(Jonathan Sacks) Jonathan Sacks - "Dear Lord Rothschild..." These three words helped to change the course of modern Jewish history and ultimately create the State of Israel. As we proudly approach the celebrations of the 100th anniversary of the Balfour Declaration on November 2, Rabbi Sacks has recorded a short video reflecting on what this declaration meant in 1917, and what it means for us today. Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks served as the Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth from 1991 to 2013.
