DAILY DOSE:
The Image
How you treat others is how G-d treats you. How you forgive them is how He forgives you.
How you see them is how He sees you.
When you show empathy for the plight of another human being,
G-d takes empathy in your plight.
When others slight you and you ignore the call to vengeance that burns inside,
G-d erases all memory of your failures toward Him.
When you see the image of G-d in another human being,
then the image of G-d becomes revealed within you.
Tzvi Freeman

17 Tevet
In 1728, Congregation Shearith Israel purchased a plot of land in lower Manhattan, site of the first synagogue in North America. At the time, New York had the only Jewish community in the country; . Shearith Israel was the only Jewish congregation in New York City from 1654 until 1825, having been founded by Brazilian Jews of Spanish and Portuguese origin. Governor Peter Stuyvesant, known for his anti-Semitic views, had initially denied Jews the right to worship in a public gathering;
Despite their permission to stay in New Amsterdam they continued to face legal troubles and were not given permission to worship in a public synagogue during for some time (throughout the Dutch period and even into the British). The Congregation did, however, make arrangements for a cemetery beginning in 1656. It was not until 1730 that the Congregation was able to build a synagogue of its own, which was built on Mill Street in lower Manhattan. Prior to 1730, as is evidenced from a map of New York from 1695, the congregation worshipped in rented quarters on Beaver Street and subsequently on Mill Street. Since 1730 the Congregation has worshipped in five synagogues:
Mill Street, 1730
Mill Street re-built and expanded, 1818
Crosby Street, 1834
19th Street, 1860
West 70th Street, 1897 (present building.)
Cemetery: 55 St. James Place, opposite Chatham Square, in use 1682-1828 (China Town).
