Baruch Alter HaCohen Taub ((ヘブライ語:ברוך אלתר הכהן טאוב)) is the founding rabbi and Rabbi Emeritus of the Beth Avraham Yoseph of Toronto Congregation (BAYT), the largest Orthodox congregation in Canada. He also served as the de facto chief rabbi of Vaughan, Ontario, and is the former National Director of NCSY. He currently lives in Netanya, Israel. ==Biography== Rabbi Taub received his rabbinic ordination from Yeshivas Ner Yisroel of Baltimore, MD. He holds a Master's degree from Loyola College of Maryland and a Doctorate of Philosophy from the Maimonides College of Ontario. He became National Director of NCSY in 1976, following the departure of Rabbi Pinchas Stolper to become Executive Vice President of the Orthodox Union. He served in this post until 1980, when he left to become the spiritual leader of the BAYT Congregation. His selection as founding rabbi of the BAYT Congregation came about through his introduction to Canadian philanthropist Joseph Tannenbaum by Rabbi Nota Schiller of Yeshivat Ohr Somayach. Tannenbaum was interested in starting a synagogue in northern Toronto, and Schiller introduced him to the dynamic Ner Yisroel graduate then living in New York with his wife and five children. Rabbi Taub started the BAYT Congregation in his living room with 13 families in 1980,〔 and continued shepherding it as the sole rabbi.〔 By the time of his retirement in 2010, the congregation had grown to 600 to 700 families, making it the largest Orthodox congregation in Canada.〔 Rabbi Taub is a noted speaker on Orthodox Jewish outreach and the teshuva movement. He delivered the keynote speech to the 1996 AJOP Convention on the subject "The Teshuvah Movement: The next generation".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Keynote Address: The Teshuvah Movement: The next generation )〕 During his tenure as Rabbi of BAYT, he spoke at Israel solidarity rallies and led his congregation on annual solidarity missions to Israel.〔 He led the 11th Siyum HaShas at Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin in Lublin, Poland. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baruch Taub」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
