Congregation Beth Israel (Onset, Massachusetts)

Congregation Beth Israel (Hebrew: בית ישראל) is an Orthodox congregation located in Onset, Massachusetts, on Cape Cod.[3] It is famous as the summer synagogue of Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik and some of his students from the 1950s until the mid-1960s, when his wife died.[2][4] The clapboard building was originally a furniture store, before it was converted to a synagogue in 1948.[2]

Initially a destination for Jewish vacationers from Boston, Beth Israel now attracts Jews from Toronto, Montreal, and New York City from a "wide cross-section of Orthodoxy", including "Young Israel, Chabad, Chasidim from Montreal, Charedim, Carlebach Chasidim, very-left wing (Edah) and 'Conservadox'." The synagogue maintains three daily minyans throughout the summer and through the High Holidays.[2][5]
