Details
Congregation Beth Israel a Reform synagogue located at 615 Court Street in Honesdale, Pennsylvania. The congregation was founded by Jews of German background. In the spring of 1849 the first Jewish family settled in Honesdale, and by the fall the congregation had been organized. By 1854 the congregation also had a Hebrew school. Originally Orthodox, the congregation moved rapidly to "Classical Reform". In the 1930s and 40s an influx of more traditional Jews of Eastern European backgrounds prompted a slow change to more traditional practices (though still Reform). Rabbis (often student rabbis) would only officiate at High Holiday and some festival services. Other services were held on Friday nights, and were lay-led. The bulk of the costs associated with running the synagogue were underwritten by Honesdale's Katz Underwear Company, with additional funds raised by the Temple Sisterhood.
