His Grandfather responded, “when a Jew, a Tzaddik Rabbi S. Lipskar resolves to circumcise himself at the age of 99 he is worthy that Hashem should appear to him”.

When they returned from their reconnaissance, ten of the meraglim reported that the people would not be able to conquer the land. Only two of those sent - Yehoshua and Caleiv - insisted that Israel would prevail against the Cananites. How were those two able to withstand the pressure of the other meraglim and act independently? Rashi cites a medrash which says that when “Moshe called Hoshea bin Nun, Yehoshua" (Bamidbar 13:16) he was praying that Yehoshua should not be influenced by the evil plans of the other meraglim. The name change implies (as Rashi notes) this prayer. “May Hashem (Yud-Hay) save you from the plot of the Spies." The Targum Yonasan (See Tractate Megillah 3A where the Gemarah attributes its authorship to Reb Yonasan ben Uziel. Its overall style is very similar to that of Targum Onkelos, though at times it seems to be a looser paraphrase.) adds: "When Moshe saw his extreme humility, he called Hoshea bin Nun, Yehoshua." Caleiv, however, managed, on his own, that is without Moshe interceding on his behalf, to withstand the mergalim's scheme.

    Parashat Vayetze 5774 by Rabbi Joshua Rabin November 9, 2013

    Parashat Vayetze 5774 By Rabbi Joshua Rabin November 9, 2013 Bill Drayton, founder and CEO of Ashoka, an organization that provides financial and organizational support to social entrepreneurs around the world, says that when Ashoka attempts to identify individuals to support, he asks his colleagues, “Do you deeply trust this person?” 1 Explaining the rationale behind this question, Drayton states, ...to cause fundamental social change, you are asking people to change how they do their work, how they relate to other people. You’re asking a lot of them. And if they don’t trust you, your probability of success is greatly reduced. The trustworthiness of the social entrepreneur—their integrity—is one of their most important assets. People sense that—and if they don’t trust you, they won’t follow you. They won’t make those leaps in their own lives that are necessary. 2 According to Drayton, making systemic social change requires a commitment to personal integrity. As a rabbi, I cannot read this quote without thinking about the tension I experience between wanting to fulfill the prophetic obligation to speak out against injustice and the reality that I am not perfect, that I possess more than few moral shortcomings. At the same time, the necessity of speaking out against injustice leads me to recognize that my commitment to social change requires a continual commitment to questioning my own moral compass and to balancing healthy doses of both hope and reality. The challenge of examining our moral choices and recognizing our successes and failures is reflected in several commentaries on the beginning of Parashat Vayetze .
