On Venus, Have We Got a Rabbi - Tenn: A pretty fun monologue about Jews in the future and the local rabbi on Venus.
The Golem - Davidson: A bickering elderly couple are accosted by an artificial being, but things are resolved satisfactorily.
Unto the Fourth Generation - Asimov: A surprisingly touching piece from Asimov, about a prayer answered, and family found.

Street of Dreams, Feet of Clay - Sheckley: Not explicitly Jewish, but relying on a variation of the Jewish mother stereotype.
Jachid and Jechidah - Singer: I found this far more interesting for the perspective it took than the story itself--treating life Earth like Sheol/death. Very cool.
I'm Looking for Kadak - Ellison: A long-winded story about finding a tenth for a minyan. Vaguely amusing but dragged.

Gather Blue Roses - Sargent: A fantastic story, tying in empathy and the Holocaust.
The Jewbird - Malamud: A Jewish crow hops into the Cohens' lives, and a good metaphor for a lot of things here.
Paradise Last - Effinger: A long story of how a future society will disperse their Jews. It's good, though takes a tad long to get to its point.

Look, You Think You've Got Troubles - Carr: Reluctant father accepts Martian son-in-law. Very very old school.
Goslin Day - Davidson: A creepy story with a gutpunch ending.
The Dybbuk of Mazel Tov IV - Silverberg: A possession gone awry. OK story.
Trouble with Water - Gold: Very silly story about a curse.
