Bernard Hallman presided at the exercises, at which Rabbi A. S. Borvick, Rabbi of the synagogue; Harry Stone, president of the congregation; Rabbi David Goldberg and others spoke.

The synagogue and Hebrew school were erected at a cost of $90,000.

The synagogue has a seating capacity for about 3,000. The Jewish population of Brockton approximates 3,200.
