Ep. 71 - A Rabbi who lost his brother to suicide | David-Seth Kirshner

Understand Suicide

When Rabbi David-Seth Kirshner was told, twenty five years ago, that he needed to call home, he knew it was bad news, but what he didn't expect was that later that day, his parents would answer the phone together so that they could tell him that his older brother, Gabriel, who was 36 years old at the time, had died by suicide. What he also didn't know, because we never do, is that Gabriel's devastating death would change their lives forever. In this interview, Rabbi Kirshner talks about how each member of his family reacted to Gabriel's death, and how he, as a religious leader, engaged in advocacy so that he could, personally open a constructive conversation about mental health and self-inflicted death. When he became the Rabbi of the Temple Emanu-El of Closter, in New Jersey, his opening sermon was about his brother's suicide because he wanted his congregation to feel that they could come to him and talk about their struggles. He also opened up about the fact that, when Gabriel was a child, he had been sexually abused by a Rabbi, which impacted him immensely. Much to my surprise (and limited knowledge about Judaism), Rabbi Kirshner shared that Judaism has evolved from the all-or-nothing condemnation of suicide, to a place of understanding.“Today, all the major streams of Judaism - not the extremes -, there is a sense of compassion, empathy, and understanding not only for the victims of suicide, but for the survivors and family members,” he said. This has been quite an enlightening interview and it's part of my efforts to bring in religious and spiritual leaders to the podcast so that we can learn about these communities and the way they view suicide.

Rabbi of Temple Emanu-El in NJ and the former President of the New York Board of Rabbis, Rabbi David-Seth Kirshner is no stranger to grief.

In this episode, Rabbi Kirshner talks with Dr. Jen Ashton about faith and the role spiritual leaders' play in helping others navigate their own journey. We'd love your feedback.
