For years, Rav Sean Gorman has found an unexpected way to bring Torah into everyday  life: through the neckties he wears. Some are  playful. Some are personal. Some connect to a  particular Torah portion, holiday, memory, or  moment. Each becomes a starting point for  looking more closely at the texts and traditions  that have shaped Jewish life for generations.

What begins with something as ordinary as choosing a tie can lead somewhere entirely  unexpected: to creation and covenant, proph ets and patriarchs, Shabbat and the festivals, or  a lesson hidden within a familiar passage. Along  the way, Rav Sean draws upon his years as a  rabbi, teacher, and student of Torah to illumi nate connections between ancient texts and the  lives we lead today.

In The Rabbi’s Necktie, those connections become an invitation to see Torah with fresh  eyes. With curiosity, warmth, and a healthy  appreciation for a good pun, Rav Sean reminds  us that engaging with tradition does not have to  begin with a profound question. Sometimes it  can begin with something hanging in your  closet.
