Where there was once one Jewish community under one roof, there are now two hostile congregations--one Reconstructionist, one Orthodox--across the street from one another. Through a year as a participant in both congregations and in-depth interviews, Zuckerman tells a mesmerizing story of this religious schism. Strife in the Sanctuary then contemplates why religious groups split...
