This gathering was transformed into a community with the arrival of Rabbi Moshe and Rebbetzin Dinie Scheiner.

Palm Beach, Florida 33480 Tel: 561-838-9002 Fax: 561-838-5356 [email protected] www.palmbeachsynagogue.org Dear Friends, We proudly present to you the Kaylie, Steinberg and Zelman Palm Beach Synagogue Program Guide for 2012/2013 -5773, Your Gateway to Judaism in Palm Beach. King David says, “Tov Lihodot L’Hashem” — it is good to give thanks to Hashem. This past year, Palm Beach Synagogue celebrated its Chai anniversary, and we are grateful to have experienced the phenomenal growth of our Synagogue from its inception as a small minyan to its current vibrancy and dynamism. Today, we are blessed to be a spiritual home to a broad community of families and adults of different backgrounds and affiliations, all seeking to deepen their connection to Hashem and their understanding of Torah. Palm Beach Synagogue is a synagogue filled with warmth and friendship, as well as intellectual, emotional and spiritual fulfillment. Our Synagogue has a dazzling array of programs to offer which reflect the diversity of our community and the many different ways that individuals access the beauty and meaning of Torah. There are adult beginner and advanced courses, children’s and teen education, holiday celebrations, a book club, cantorial and musical events, a film festival, women’s events, guest lecturers, a mission to Israel, singles programs, as well as Chesed and volunteering opportunities. I invite you to participate in these programs and help us continue building our community. Traditionally, a Synagogue has been referred to by two names, a “beit ha’kneset,” a house of gathering and a “beit ha’medrash,” a house of learning. Our Synagogue exemplifies an amalgam of both concepts. We are a community lighthouse which draws together people traveling from different directions but gathering around the warm light of Torah. The Torah is our beacon that has guided us and kept us together as a nation for thousands of years, while our synagogues served as the portable homeland of the Jewish people. The keys to P.B.S.—Prayer, Benevolence and Study—are literally in your hands. We are delighted to welcome you to join us throughout the year, so we can learn, pray and grow together as we respect diversity and celebrate unity. Looking forward to greeting you in Shul, – Rabbi Moshe E. Scheiner 5773 Program Guide | 1 Dear Fellow Members and Friends, The Program Guide for 5773 exemplifies the philosophy of Palm Beach Synagogue as a center for Judaism that is welcoming, dedicated to Jewish values and traditions, and spiritually inspiring. Under the leadership of our beloved Rabbi Moshe Scheiner, we open our doors and hearts to those who want to pray together and become part of our community. We welcome all—adults, teens, children, newcomers, seniors and singles—and offer opportunities for social connection, and spiritual and intellectual growth. We are very proud to boast that we are the only synagogue in Palm Beach that conducts morning, afternoon and evening services every day of the year. As you peruse this Program Guide, you will find a full range of programs for the coming year. Our adult education classes provide stimulating classes in Bible, Talmud, Jewish law and customs, Hebrew language and Yiddish, and there are programs in arts and culture, including our Jewish film series, book club and current affairs roundtable. We have assembled a wide spectrum of guest lecturers and Scholars-in-Residence who will enrich our knowledge of Torah, and deepen our understanding of issues of interest to the Jewish community and the State of Israel. Our women’s programs, under the guidance of our wonderful Rebbetzin Dinie, are guaranteed to motivate and strengthen our knowledge and bonds of friendship. We trust that our prayer services will be elevated through the voices of our visiting cantors, and that you will enjoy our celebratory events associated with the Jewish holidays. There is also a full array of special programs and educational opportunities for our children and youth. We look forward to serving your needs. Our only requirement we ask of you is your attendance—to take advantage of all that we offer for your personal growth and development, including world renowned scholars and personalities. As your newly elected President, it is my honor to wish everyone a very Happy and Healthy New Year, and a wonderful New Season enriched by the many activities, classes, lectures, programs, celebrations and events enumerated in this Program Guide in the year to come. I look forward to greeting you there! – Barbara T. R.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION RECOVERING A REPRESSED PAS T On February 12, 2013, Ruth Calderon was invited to the dais of the Israeli Knesset to deliver her firs t speech as a newly-elected member of parliament.1 The speech was unlike any given in the his tory of deliberations in Israel’s legislature in that it consis ted primarily of her reading and interpreting a Talmudic s tory. The Talmudic s tory that Calderon read before the Knesset, firs t in the original Aramaic and then in Hebrew translation, was, as is typical of these s tories, very brief: Rabbi Rahumi s tudied under Rava in Mehoza. He would regularly come home to his wife on the eve of Yom Kippur. One day [on the eve of Yom Kippur] the topic [he was s tudying] drew him in. His wife anticipated him, “He is coming. He is coming.” He did not come. She began to grieve. She shed a tear from her eye. He was sitting on a roof. The roof collapsed under him, and he died. (B. Ketubot 62b)2 The s tory reflects what appears to have been a common practice among rabbinic scholars in Babylonia: to absent themselves from home for long periods of time to s tudy Torah. The author of the s tory expresses his disapproval of this cus tom by portraying empathically the emotional s tress experienced by Rabbi Rahumi’s wife when he was so engaged in Torah s tudy that he forgot to return home for the sacred holiday. The excitement captured in her cry of anticipation, “He is coming.

We hasten to add, however, that complete as this list seems, it is a work perpetually being updated. The very nature of the Chabad movement and its ever-expanding number of institutions precludes the possibility of a completely finalized directory. We are proud of the fact that new schools are founded every year and that keeping pace with the continuously expanding Chabad education world is an almost impossible task. Clearly, compiling this directory required diligence, persistence, and organizational skills and we are grateful to Mrs. Chaya Winner for undertaking this project and bringing it to fruition. In spite of the difficulty of keeping pace, we do our best to keep our records current and encourage schools to inform our office as soon as any change occurs.

  • Vertientes Del Judaismo #3
    CLASES DE JUDAISMO VERTIENTES DEL JUDAISMO #3 Por: Eliyahu BaYonah Director Shalom Haverim Org New York Vertientes del Judaismo • LA ORTODOXIA MODERNA • La Ortodoxia moderna comprende un espectro bastante amplio de movimientos, cada extracción toma varias filosofías aunque relacionados distintamente, que en alguna combinación han proporcionado la base para todas las variaciones del movimiento de hoy en día. • En general, la ortodoxia moderna sostiene que la ley judía es normativa y vinculante, y concede al mismo tiempo un valor positivo para la interacción con la sociedad contemporánea. Vertientes del Judaismo • LA ORTODOXIA MODERNA • En este punto de vista, el judaísmo ortodoxo puede "ser enriquecido" por su intersección con la modernidad. • Además, "la sociedad moderna crea oportunidades para ser ciudadanos productivos que participan en la obra divina de la transformación del mundo en beneficio de la humanidad". • Al mismo tiempo, con el fin de preservar la integridad de la Halajá, cualquier área de “fuerte inconsistencia y conflicto" entre la Torá y la cultura moderna debe ser evitada. La ortodoxia moderna, además, asigna un papel central al "Pueblo de Israel " Vertientes del Judaismo • LA ORTODOXIA MODERNA • La ortodoxia moderna, como una corriente del judaísmo ortodoxo representado por instituciones como el Consejo Nacional para la Juventud Israel, en Estados Unidos, es pro-sionista y por lo tanto da un estatus nacional, así como religioso, de mucha importancia en el Estado de Israel, y sus afiliados que son, por lo general, sionistas en la orientación. • También practica la implicación con Judíos no ortodoxos que se extiende más allá de "extensión (kiruv)" a las relaciones institucionales y la cooperación continua, visto como Torá Umaddá.
