David Joel Wolpe
Though Rabbi David Joel Wolpe’s community comes together through social media, he inspires 55,125 Facebook followers six days a week with his insightful comments on Shabbos, Torah, life, and our relationship with God, His world, and each other. I have shared so many of Rabbi Wolpe’s thoughts with my own Facebook friends that many of them have “liked” his page in order to have access to his wisdom and encouragement directly.Rabbi Wolpe is definitely a man worthy of recognition for his contributions to so many.

A message from our Publisher & CEO Rachel Fishman Feddersen
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
Readers like you make it all possible. We’ve started our Passover Fundraising Drive, and we need 1,800 readers like you to step up to support the Forward by April 21. Members of the Forward board are even matching the first 1,000 gifts, up to $70,000.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism, because every dollar goes twice as far.
