Before coming to YISE, Rabbi Rosenbaum was the Rabbi of Am Hatorah Congregation in Bethesda, Maryland for five years. His first love was Jewish education and he taught Judaic studies at the Yeshiva of Greater Washington – to levels ranging from seventh grade to post-high school in the Boys, Girls, and Yeshiva Gedolah Divisions – for ten years. He still enjoys numerous opportunities to connect to the youth of our community, including YISE’s popular Dor L’Dor program and weekly visits to the YISE Nursery.

Rabbi Rosenbaum’s greatest joy in the rabbinate is the opportunity to forge meaningful connections with individuals of various ages and backgrounds. Having joined the YISE community as a child in 1984, he enjoys the unique opportunity to deepen relationships with some congregants he has known for decades.

Rabbi Rosenbaum gives both weekly and periodic shiurim within our shul. Many of his shiurim can be found at http://torahdownloads.org/s-67-rabbi-dovid-rosenbaum.html and on YouTube. 

Rabbi Rosenbaum is a musmach of the Yeshiva of Greater Washington and holds a BS in Accounting from University of Maryland University College.

Rebbetzin Atara Rosenbaum, a product of the Woodside community, has been a Judaic studies teacher at the Yeshiva of Greater Washington Girls Division since 1998. The Rosenbaums’ lives are immeasurably enriched by their children Yosef, Gedaliah, Moshe, Rachel, and Miriam.
