Jewish community members missing, rabbis say
Some members from The Shul of Bal Harbour synagogue are among the 99 people unaccounted for, Rabbi Sholom Lipskar told CNN's Wolf Blitzer.
"This
is something that transcends our capacity for understanding," Lipskar
said about the collapse. "It's a reality, we accept it and we have to
learn as we do in our culture of resilience to move forward."
The outpouring of support has been unprecedented, Lipskar said.
"There
are way more volunteers than we can use. Our synagogue big hall, which
is a giant space, is filled with blankets, pillows, microwave ovens,
chargers, food. It is an extraordinary outpouring and it's real and it's
sincere," he said.
"The
only thing that helps in these times is kindness and empathy and
togetherness, because you can't take away the reality," Lipskar said,
and for each family member waiting for news from a loved one, there are
about five or six community members with them, giving support.
