About the shul
The Hacham Shaul Kassin Synagogue of Deal, at 128 Norwood Avenue: your place for Torah and tefila at the Jersey Shore. The shul is active 365 days a year for prayers, and there is more, much more, than just tefila.
Life at the shul
Minyanim and zmanim-
Every day
Many daily minyanim, from early morning until late at night: the netz minyan at sunrise, Shahareet in the Main, Middle, Back and Front rooms through the morning, Minha Gedola, and Minha and Arbit. Each minyan has its own start time and its own place inside the shul.
-
Learning
The Deal Shul Torah Center, with over 50 rabbis teaching, and daily classes for men and ladies. Hundreds of people learn here morning, noon and night.
-
Shabbat
A catered breakfast after Shabbat morning prayers every week, and our legendary Seudah Shelishit, which looks like a sebbet: the entire shul sits to hear divrei Torah from our rabbis.

Our children
Deal Shul Youth, DSY: a daily program for children with Rabbi Amon.
The building
Photographs-
Norwood Avenue
The shul’s tall brick gable, with its Hebrew name above and “Synagogue of Deal” below, has stood on Norwood Avenue for decades. Over the entrance, in gold: זה השער לה׳ צדיקים יבאו בו, “This is the gate of the Lord; the righteous shall enter it.”
The front about 2011, with its earlier lettering, from the shul’s own website.

Today
The front now carries the shul’s round emblem: the star of six interlaced bars, with בית כנסת דיל and “Synagogue of Deal” around it.
Inside, the new sanctuary: curved walls of marble veined in rose, and an ark of black and brass set with diamonds of coloured glass under three gold crowns, beneath a chandelier of garnet glass.
