Rabbi Daniel Swartz

Rabbi Daniel Swartz is the spiritual leader of Temple Hesed of Scranton and the executive director of the Coalition on the Environment and Jewish Life.  He and his spouse, Rabbi Marjorie Berman, were recently part of the launch of the Women Faith & Climate Network, where the delegates closed the conference chanting Esther 4:14 (“umi yode’a im la’et kazot higat lemalkut/who knows — perhaps it is for just such a time as this you have attained Malkhut.”) to a melody composed by Rabbi Swartz.
