“Rabbi“ translates to “teacher,” and it is exactly what rabbis are.

Like most other clergy, rabbis lead congregations and prayers, interpret the ancient text (in this case, the Tanakh/Old Testament and other Jewish texts), and officiate ceremonies. They teach classes for children about Jewish history, may teach and translate Hebrew, go to hospitals, and may officiate ceremonies such as checking mezuzah, b‘nai mitzvahs, and burying old scrolls that can no longer be used.

Basically, they do what any clergy do, but they do it in a way that is specific to Judaism.
