Rabbi David Eshel
Rabbi Eshel first joined our Temple community in the Summer of 2001 when, returning from his first year of rabbinical school in Israel, he served our camps as a unit head. Rabbi Eshel has spent every subsequent summer working with our camps, serving as a Judaic educator and student rabbi. As part of his training, Rabbi Eshel served as the Temple’s rabbinic intern from 2004-2006. He joined the Temple clergy as a full-time rabbi in the summer of 2006. His responsibilities include serving as camp rabbi in the summer and as a faculty rabbi for both Brawerman Elementary school and the Temple’s religious schools, our Center for Learning and Engagement. David holds a B.A. in History from UCLA, an M.A. in Jewish Education as well as ordination from The Hebrew Union College. David’s wife, Stephanie, works as a Religious School principal for Temple Judea in Tarzana and West Hills.
