Frequently Asked Questions
What is RemoteShul???
This isn’t a Shul! Isn’t Shul a place to daven (pray)?
Yes! But in today’s Jewish Community, the shul represents something more than a place to daven; Shul memberships is synonymous with membership in the community. RemoteShul is not a place to daven, but aims to provide direction and fill the communal void for those who may not members of a traditional shul.
What is an online community?
See for yourself! RemoteShul has many of the features of social media, but without trolls, hate speech, and politics. Our community provides members with a space for discussions dedicated to religious growth with Rabbinic oversight. All members are approved by Rabbi Hoberman and will be removed for acting in a way that is not consistent with RemoteShul’s values.
How much does membership cost?
Basic membership is free, providing you access to our discussions and weekly bulletin. Premium membership is $19.99/month and provides you with access to our Rabbi, Rabbi Scott Hoberman. Premium members will have the opportunity to set up private meetings with Rabbi Hoberman in our OfficeHours space, attend premium classes such as our monthly Live Q&A, and will have the opportunity to provide direction for the future of RemoteShul.
