Beth Jacob Synagogue. See notes.
Congregation Beth Jacob
2704 E. Linwood Blvd
(Linwood and Euclid)
AKA: "Rabbi Burstein's Shul"
AKA: "The Palisher Shul" ("Palisher" means the members were from the Pale of Settlement in Russia)
Became part of a five synagogue merger that became Kehilath Israel synagogue in 1945. The combined membership of the new Kehilath Israel numbered 425 families, resulting in an enrollment of 368 children in the religious school. During this time the congregation actually owned two buildings, but none were large enough to contain all the students or the more than 1,000 people expected to attend High Holy Day services.
"Zayda Kolman (Baellow's) favorite shul. He used to walk from our house on 42nd and Wabash."
-Louis Cohn
"Feter Kolman liked the rabbi at the shul on Linwood and Euclid" - Norman Baellow.
