Rabbi Ezray inspires us in countless ways.
He is a gifted teacher and speaker, connecting the lessons of
Torah and Judaism to everyday life in meaningful ways.
He values connection and engages with each member of our CBJ
community and beyond with respect and dignity.
He has been there for our joys and in times of sorrow.
We are proud to be the first wedding he officiated in his tenure
at CBJ!
We are better people for knowing Rabbi Ezray and being impacted
by his words and deeds, his calls for empathy and for action.
Thank you Nat for all that you do to promote community, a sense
of duty and belonging that provides so much well being to our
members and extends beyond the cherished space of CBJ.

Nat, you are a friend, a haver of the highest magnitude and a
master teacher and Rabbi, a Rav to all, leading with empathy,
integrity, and understanding, while always reminding us of the
power of story and relationships.
Thank you for all you do for CBJ, the North Peninsula, the Jewish
