Jokes and Anecdotes—Children, undated
Scope and Contents
This series includes many notecards containing both delivered sermons and notes for future ones. Over his 28-year tenure as rabbi, Rabbi Roth collected jokes, stories, and moral anecdotes to share with his congregation; some are sourced, some are in Hebrew. Some of these notes may be found in the wedding, funeral, Bar/Bat Mitzvah, or confirmation sermons, which are written in Rabbi Roth's personal shorthand of English and Hebrew words. The folder of special sermons contains unique sermons such as the “Learning Dialogues,” and sermons delivered in Israel and Martha's Vineyard.
