What’s in a name?
Yinon, taken from Psalm 72:17, means "to increase," "to endure," or "continue." Yinon is also an ancient reference to the Messiah.
We are inspired by a vision of Jewish life that is progressive, egalitarian, and engaging ... rooted in the enduring legacy of Mashiach. We seek to cultivate in our fellow Jews greater levels of faith, hope, and involvement with the world. We seek to inspire our sisters and brothers to prepare the world for the coming of Mashiach. We are far from having a patent on the process, and welcome you to join us on our journey.More stuff to read

Patti Stanger debates Shmuley Boteach
So I’m kind of a huge fan of Bravo’s “The Millionaire Matchmaker.” Patti Stanger, the show’s star, somehow represents for me the ideal LA Jewish woman. It’s probably because she’s NOT from LA that I love her so much. She’s … Continue reading

Jerusalem as Sacred Space
Abstract of Makom Kadosh: Jerusalem as Sacred Space by Rabbi Joshua Brumbach. For the full article, click here. How is it that Jerusalem became an axis of sacred space, a locus of the divine presence on earth? It lacks a … Continue reading
