Khal Adath Jeshurun

Khal Adath Jeshurun, officially K'hal Adath Jeshurun, abbreviated as KAJ, is an Orthodox Jewish community and synagogue located at 85-93 Bennett Avenue in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City, New York, United States. The community includes a high proportion of Ashkenazi German Jews and follows the Western Ashkenazic rite, unlike most Ashkenazic synagogues in the United States, that follow the Eastern Ashkenazic (Polish) liturgical rite. The Western Ashkenazic rite covers the community's liturgical text, practices, and melodies. The community uses the Rödelheim Siddur Sfas Emes edited by Wolf Heidenheim and Seligman Baer, although the community's rite varies in some places from Rödelheim. The community has an affiliated synagogue in the heavily Orthodox Jewish community of Monsey.
