  • Leviathan Jewish Journal Is an Open Medium Through Which Jewish Students and Their Allies May Freely Express Their Opinions
    Spring 2012 Vol. 39-3 LeviathanJewish Journal Jewish Journal Statement of Intent Leviathan Jewish Journal is an open medium through which Jewish students and their allies may freely express their opinions. We are commited to responsibly representing the views of each individual author. Every quarter we aim to publish a full and balanced spectrum of media exploring Jewish identity and social issues. The opinions presented in this journal do not always represent the collective opinion of Leviathan’s staff, the organized Jewish community, or the University of California. Editor-in-Chief Art Director Aaron Giannini Karin Gold Production Manager Publisher Karin Gold Shani Chabansky Managing Editor Faculty Sponsor Savyonne Steindler Bruce Thompson Business Manager Contributors Karina Garcia Hanna Broad Shelby Backman Web Manager Sophia Smith Oren Gotesman Andrew Dunnigan Gabi Kirk Additonal Staff Members Anisha Mauze David Lee Amrit Sidhu Ephraim Margolin Allison Carlisle Jennine Grasso Matthew Davis Cover Art Karin Gold Letter From the Editor After a hectic and controversial year, the Leviathan Staff thought it would be beneficial to revisit the subject of what it means to be Jewish in today’s world. This is in no way a simple question, as the diversity of the Jewish people speaks to the fluid- ity of our identity. Are we the culmination of our history, inheriting monotheism through our holy lineage? Or are we just fingerprints, products of our ever-changing environment, blips on the cosmic stage? Are we grounded in our past, or is it our obligation to live in the present and look towards the future? We did not decide on our cover image this quarter without much deliberation.

  • “PROMOTING THESSALONIKI AS a GASTRONOMIC CITY” Ilia Boza
    “PROMOTING THESSALONIKI AS A GASTRONOMIC CITY” Ilia Boza SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS, BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION & LEGAL STUDIES A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Science (MSc) in Hospitality and Tourism Management December 2017 Thessaloniki – Greece 1 Student Name: Ilia Boza SID: 1109150006 Supervisor: Nicolas Karachalis I hereby declare that the work submitted is mine and that where I have made use of another’s work, I have attributed the source(s) according to the Regulations set in the Student’s Handbook. December 2017 Thessaloniki – Greece 2 Abstract In this dissertation, the gastronomic identity of Thessaloniki and what is not working as to provoke Thessaloniki as a Gastronomic Capital, is analyzed. To begin with, as public and private interest is motivated so as to gain a relationship between gastronomy, tourism and branding, the definitions of them are synthesized. Gastronomy as a definition is the art or activity for cooking and eating fine food, as Merriam- Webster’s dictionary of English usage informs, (1993), and “food tourism is an experiential trip to a gastronomic region, for recreational or entertainment purposes, including visits to primary and secondary producers of food, gastronomic festivals, food fairs, events, farmers’ markets, cooking shows and demonstrations, degustation of quality food products or any tourism activity relevant to food”, according to Hall and Sharples, (2003). Introducing Thessaloniki, a city constructed along the sea, into Thermaïkos Gulf, a modernized metropolis bearing the marks of its blustery history and its cosmopolitan character, results that the location of the buns took a series of great gastronomy ventures mainly of young people who tried to renew the tradition of the city by introducing new cooking methods, blends, materials and traditions studied elsewhere.

Eliezer and Uriel Shkolnik are both eccentric professors, who have dedicated their lives to their work in Talmudic Studies. The father, Eliezer, is a stubborn purist who fears the establishment and has never been recognized for his work. Meanwhile his son, Uriel, is an up-and-coming star in the field, who appears to feed on accolades, endlessly seeking recognition. Then one day, the tables turn. When Eliezer learns that he is to be awarded the Israel Prize, the most valuable honor for scholarship in the country, his vanity and desperate need for validation are exposed.

  • The Role of Religious Considerations in the Discussion of Women's Combat Service—The Case Of
    religions Article The Pink Tank in the Room: The Role of Religious Considerations in the Discussion of Women’s Combat Service—The Case of the Israel Defense Forces Elisheva Rosman Department of Political Studies, Bar Ilan University, Ramat Gan 5290002, Israel; [email protected] Received: 5 October 2020; Accepted: 21 October 2020; Published: 27 October 2020 Abstract: Women serve in diverse roles in the 21st century militaries of the world. They are no longer banned from combat. The presence of women on the battlefield has raised religious arguments and considerations. What role do religious arguments play in the discussion regarding women’s military service? Using media, internal publications, as well as academic articles, the current paper examined this question in the context of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF): a conscription-based military that conscripts both men and women, religious and secular, for both combat and noncombat postings. Using the case of the pilot program in the IDF attempting to integrate women in the Israeli tank corps, as well as gauging the way religious men view this change, the paper argues that religious considerations serve the same purpose as functional considerations and can be amplified or lessened, as needed. Keywords: military; IDF; female soldiers; religion and the military; religious considerations; religious women’s conscription In November 2016, the issue of integrating women in the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) tank corps began to be discussed. The Israeli national religious caricaturist Yossi Shachar published a caricature of a large pink tank, labeled “feminism”, threatening a small tank with a frightened solider inside it, labeled “the IDF” (Shachar 2016).

  • Shabbat Vayishlach 5781 ​Connecting to Israel Through TV
    Shabbat Vayishlach 5781 Connecting to Israel through TV: My Favorite Israeli Shows Streaming Now, and What ​ They Say About Israel Today Rabbi Alex Freedman Shabbat shalom! Let's begin with a joke: What did Moses share in common with most American Jews? He always talked about making Aliyah but never actually did! ​ ​ OK, I'm being unfair to Moses, a man who devoted himself endlessly to the People Israel. It made him sick that G-d did not let him enter the Promised Land. (Even though - brace yourselves - Moses actually did set foot in Israel. More on that later). ​ ​ These weeks, many synagogues are following the lead of the American Zionist Movement and hosting a Zionist Shabbat to strengthen the connection between our communities and Israel. Thanks to Sandy Starkman for encouraging this. The AZM does wonderful things to bring us closer to Israel, and our own Rabbi Kurtz is a former president of the AZM. Clearly, the best way to connect to Israel is to go there, to “Kum Hit’halech Ba’aretz,” to ​ ​ walk about it with your own two feet. To feel with your own heart that you’ve returned home. To see with your own eyes the golden hue of Jerusalem stone as the sun sets. To hear with your own ears “Shabbat shalom!” from every direction everywhere you go on Fridays. To taste with your own mouth the heavenly combination of warm, soft, fresh pita bread, savory hummus and crunchy-on-the-outside falafel. Israel, the land of milki ​ and honey. So what are we to do these days, when we cannot safely travel there because of Coronavirus? Today I want to speak about a relatively new way of connecting to Israel: television.
