She will also give a talk titled "The Life and Legacy of Abraham Joshua Heschel: Moral Grandeur and Spiritual Audacity" at Ohavay Zion Synagogue 2048 Edgewater Ct. Lexington, KY 40502 Wednesday, April 29, at 7 p.m. Details inside for Passover, Yom HaShoah & Yom Ha’Atzmaut Office will be open by appointment only from 3/30-4/3 FROM THE RABBI Passover is fast approaching, and soon after it… the Moosnick Lecture Series. On this holiday of freedom, we remember our liberation from bondage in Egypt, and we pray for the redemption of our world. We take note that there are still those in our world who consider other human beings, made in the image of God, as lesser than they simply because of their race, religion, sexual orientation, or gender. We realize that there is still hatred. There is still oppression. There is still slavery in our world. And we long for freedom for all humanity. One of those who worked for freedom in the civil rights movement in the United States was Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel. His daughter, Susannah Heschel, an incredible scholar in her own right, wrote: I was a child in 1965, but I remember vividly when my father left our home in New York City to take part in the Selma march.

  • Prime Minister of Cambodia Office of the Prime Minister Royal Government of Cambodia Government Peace Building No
    His Excellency Samdech Techo Hun Sen Prime Minister of Cambodia Office of the Prime Minister Royal Government of Cambodia Government Peace Building No. 38, Confederation Russia Blvd (110) Phnom Penh Cambodia [email protected] May 22, 2020 Re: The Threat of the Dog Meat Trade to Cambodia Dear Prime Minister Hun Sen, We are writing on behalf of the Asia for Animals Coalition, representing international animal welfare and conservation organizations regarding our concerns about the dog meat trade in Cambodia and its threat to public health, in light of the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the worsening situation of the pandemic globally and throughout Southeast Asia, with 45,2091 ​ human coronavirus infections in the region to date, the mass trafficking, sale, and slaughter of ​ companion animals often alongside wild animals throughout the Kingdom continues unchallenged. The dog meat trade is rampant in Cambodia, involving the slaughter and consumption of up to 3 million dogs each year, many of them stolen pets, with an unknown number trafficked regularly into neighboring Vietnam. Research suggests that only 12% of Cambodians regularly consume dog meat, and consumption remains a controversial practice among Khmer people.2 The dog meat trade has proven to be a significant threat to public health, facilitating the transmission of deadly diseases including rabies, cholera, and trichinella. The trade also directly undermines Cambodia’s rabies control efforts and disrupts any attempts at achieving herd immunity through mass canine vaccination programs. Despite growing global public health concerns regarding live animal interfaces and wet markets and the potential for the emergence of novel and deadly viruses, the dog meat trade in Cambodia continues to operate - even in the face of mounting calls to end this trade.

When completing the Threat section of the IJ (Part III. Risk): ▪ First Choice: Describe specific terror (or violent homegrown extremist) incidents, threats, hate crimes, and/or related vandalism, trespass, intimidation, or destruction of property that have targeted its property, membership, or personnel.

  • Concurrence to David Hoffman's Teshuvah
    OH 244:1.2018 Concurrence to Rabbi David Hoffman’s Teshuvah, “Building at What Cost?” Rabbi Elliot N. Dorff This paper was submitted, in October 2018, as a concurrence on “Building at What Cost?” by Rabbi David Hoffman. Dissenting and Concurring papers are not official positions of the CJLS. I voted for this teshuvah both because its research and reasoning are cogent and also because in the context of the building project of the Jewish Theological Seminary, I think that he weighed the various factors involved correctly. That said, I think that other institutions (including synagogues, schools, and camps) in other situations might weigh those factors differently and use kabblanut to justify allowing non- Jewish contractors to work on those institutions’ building projects on Shabbat. There are several reasons that lead me to this conclusion: 1) I fully agree that what Jews knew about Jewish law and their degree of adhering to the laws of Shabbat at the time of Rabbenu Tam far outpaces what we can expect of lay Jews in the Conservative movement today. I think, though, that Rabbi Hoffman underestimates the ways of informing Jews today about these issues so that people seeing building of a Jewish institution on Shabbat will understand why it is justified. This can be done not only with the old technology – e.g., a sign in front of the building indicating that the contractor is not Jewish, that payment to the contractor is for the completed project and not calculated on an hourly basis. and that the contractor has chosen to use Shabbat as one of the days to complete the work – but also, and even more extensively, on the internet, including the various ways the institution communicates with its adults, teenagers, and children.
