ISRAEL’S chief rabbi will visit Australia next month to deliver a lecture on the fourth yahrzeit of Jewish community doyen Rabbi Chaim Gutnick.
During his visit to Melbourne, Rabbi Metzger will deliver a communal address at Chabad House of Caulfield on October 11.
He will also meet informally with other Orthodox rabbis.
Rabbi Metzger will be a guest of Rabbi Gutnick’s son, Chabad of Caulfield founder Rabbi Joseph Gutnick.
“Besides the commemoration, he will be meeting with lay leaders, conferring with rabbis and visiting Jewish schools,” Rabbi Gutnick said.
“Bringing the chief rabbi of Israel here is a great honour for me and the community. We’re all very keen to hear from him on what he has to say about the present situation in the world and in Israel.”
Rabbi Metzger made his first visit to Australia in 2006, as guest of honour at the 50th anniversary of the Sydney Yeshiva. He did not visit Melbourne on that occasion.
Rabbi Chaim Gutnick founded the Rabbinical College of Australia and New Zealand in 1966 and was president of the Rabbinical Council of Victoria from 1967 until his death in 2003. Last year, Commonwealth Chief Rabbi Sir Jonathan Sacks delivered the oration.
