Jewish leaders defend Raphael Warnock after Loeffler attacks

[mucifer]

In the hours after a gunman in Pittsburgh opened fire at the Tree of Life Synagogue in 2018, the phone rang in Atlanta for Rabbi Peter Berg, the leader of The Temple, Atlanta’s oldest Jewish congregation.

It was the Rev. Raphael Warnock, the senior pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church.

“Raphael was the first to call,” Berg said. “(He said that) during this horrific moment of anti-Semitism in our country, he and the Ebenezer family are with us.”

On Tuesday, a group of nearly 200 rabbis from Georgia and across the country signed a letter in support of Warnock.
