Congregation Beth Elohim is a religious institution and synagogue based in Brooklyn, New York. Founded in 1861, it serves as a place of worship and a community hub that encompasses study, ritual, celebration, and acts of loving-kindness. The congregation welcomes people from diverse backgrounds who observe Jewish traditions and values. Newsweek named it one of America’s 25 most vibrant congregations, noting its ability to adapt to Brooklyn’s younger population. As a midsized organization within the religious institutions sector, it serves both members and the surrounding community as a center for learning and social engagement. In early 2024, Rabbi Sholomo Ben Levy retired, and Rabbi Yeshurun assumed leadership, signaling continuity with the past and a forward-looking vision.
