John 15:13

13Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 

NY Post reports the woman killed in Saturday’s synagogue shooting was hailed a “Jewish hero” after it emerged she was hit while saving her Brooklyn-born rabbi’s life.

Lori Gilbert-Kaye, 60, died during the Passover celebration at the Chabad of Poway Synagogue near San Diego when gunman John T. Earnest, 19, burst in and opened fire with “an AR-type weapon,” injuring three others, according to police and witnesses.

It emerged Sunday morning that Lori dived in front of Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein, 57, who was hit in his hands and believes the worshiper saved his life, according to reports.
