Parashat Chayei Sarah

24 Cheshvan 5786  •  15 November 2025 
General Overview 

Hebrew/English Linear Translation  •  Text with Rashi's Commentary

DAVID BURSTEIN, son of Sarah and Jason Burstein, was honored to celebrate his Bar Mitzvah with his family and friends on Thursday, November 13, 2025.
David attended Lehrman Community Day School beginning at just 18 months old, where his Jewish journey began and his love for learning and tradition started to grow. He currently attends David Posnack Jewish Day School and is excelling in his academic studies.
David is known for his kind heart, easygoing nature, and strong friendships. He is a caring son and a devoted brother to Ethan,

whom he deeply admires. David shares a special bond with his dad as they have the same great sense of humor and love watching sports together, especially hockey, football, and basketball.
When he’s not watching or talking about sports, David is happiest spending time with friends, whether it’s fishing or playing video games. He also doesn’t mind hanging out with his brother.
David’s warmth, humor, and loyalty shine through in everything he does. He is a joy to be around and brings happiness to everyone who knows him. We are so proud of David and wish him a big Mazal Tov!
