Midrash Hazak: Torah Wisdom by 70 Over 70 (but who’s counting?), edited by Rabbi Susan Elkodsi, is a unique Torah commentary designed as a companion to the weekly Torah portions read in synagogues every Shabbat. Drawing on the wisdom of approximately 70 elders, the book explores how Torah teachings continue to inspire, guide, and enrich the lives of seasoned Jewish scholars today. Rabbi Elkodsi brings scholarship, humor, and a deep passion for helping Baby Boomers and older adults find meaning, purpose, and connection within Jewish tradition and community. Through layered insights, personal stories, and practical reflections, Midrash Hazak celebrates both the timelessness of Torah and the vitality of those who live it.
