NEWSLETTER MARCH 2019/ VOLUME 25, ISSUE 3 RABBI’S MESSAGE - MARCH 2019

Because of our Temple calendar, we rarely get to sing L’cha Dodi together. We will, heaven willing, get to do that when Rabbi Price comes once again to enhance our Shabbat Across America service on March 1. There is a mysterious verse in that hymn that goes, “Shamor v’zachor b’dibur echad.” Literally it means, “Keep and Remember in one utterance;” that is, God somehow said Rabbi Peg Kershenbaum two things at once about celebrating Shabbat! Did God speak in stereo while we heard in mono? Or was it the other way around? And what does it mean? Many commentators think that the two words refer to the two different ways that God describes celebrating Shabbat in the two different versions of the 10 Commandments, one in Exodus that says, “Remember” and one in Deuteronomy that says, “Keep.” In the first Deuteronomy version, we are told to remember to rest on Shabbat because God took us out of slavery. Slaves never rest, so as free people we are to make sure that we do no work and that we make sure our workers and even our animals (or our cars, computers or cell phones!) get a break. In the second Exodus version, we are told to keep the day of rest because God rested on the seventh day at the end of creation. The idea is that we are to consider the world complete and that we are to spend the day acknowledging this fact and marveling at nature’s perfection. We are even to accept ourselves as we are and try to see that we are “good enough” despite any flaws we may see. Shabbat is a day when we set aside our striv- ing, our planning, our need to put our signature on the world (or on the clutter, the bills, the shop- ping, even the hobbies!) The type of work that we set aside differs according to the two commands. Remember says, “Set aside all the usual labor. If you are a builder, stop building. If you generally find yourself carry- ing packages or columns of numbers; filing papers or grading them; if your work involves or in- volved accounting, or keeping house, writing briefs or laundering them: give it a rest.” Keep says, “all that you do that is like what God did to create the world—giving orders, planting, making order out of chaos—cease to do. The work week is over. Turn in your tools and smell the roses!” When taken together, Shamor v’Zachor cover all types of work: backbreaking work and crea- tive work. Shabbat is for refreshment of our lives, for appreciation of the world and the creatures that inhabit it. It’s time for family, for friends, for being thankful for the freedom to take it all in with our heads held high. It’s time to sing, to eat something delicious, to wear something special, to read, to play, to acknowledge God’s gifts. This Shabbat, why not try to remember to celebrate your freedom and keep your eye out for the beauty around you? As for the rest? Give it a rest!

PAGE ONE/B’NAI HARIM PRESIDENT’S2 MESSAGE - MARCH 2019 by Meredith Stempel A famous writer once said that if you put people in a situation they will act accordingly.

Bertolt Brecht in his play, The Good Woman Of Szechwan, portrays the main character who wishes to do good but also wants to survive in the societal jungle as two separate individuals/ personalities, a kindhearted altruistic woman and a cold-hearted calculated cut-throat businessman. I am sure many of you are familiar with the notorious Stanford Prison Study conducted by the psychology department in 1971 at Stanford University. For those not familiar it is an eye-opener and for all others I think it is worth revisiting. The psychology department at Stanford created a prison setting in the basement of a building on campus where the students were randomly divided into two groups, prisoners and guards. The psychology professor assumed the role of warden. The guards were so wrapped up in their roles that it was forgotten that the prisoners were all innocent students. They became sadistic and abusive towards the prisoners. The professor/warden completely embraced his role and began to forget who he really was. His primary goal became the maintenance of the security of the prison. He stopped the experiment which was to have lasted two weeks after six days. All participants were so immersed in their roles that they forgot about basic ideals of freedom and justice.

PAGE TWO/B’NAI HARIM DNA by George Novick

My daughter had given me a gift of a DNA kit. I did the test and sent it away. The result came back and there were no surprises. I am 99%+ Ashkenazi and about 3/10 of a percent Ital- ian (southern European). About a month later I received a list of about 1000 possible relatives from 2nd cousins down. I perused the list, which has very few last names and found one that did have a last name listed as Novack. So I took a chance and contacted her. She responded and after a lengthy discussion we realized that we were related on my father’s side. I learned that she is 45 years old, her father is close to me in age and that she lives in NYC. I also found out that my grandfather and her great grandfather were brothers. I never knew that my grandfather had more than one brother. It seems that there were more brothers and sisters too. I now have a new side of the family I never knew about and am puzzled why I didn’t know that it existed. We are going to meet soon and I hope to get more information on my father’s family the Nova- kovskys. Oh by the way, she has a daughter who goes to the same school as my grandson where she is an 8th grader and he is a 9th. Will wonders and connections never cease.

A PLEA FOR PLARN by Norma Krasne-Levine & Steven Levine Dear Fellow Congregants, Thank you so very much for your collections of plastic bags. However, we are in desperate need of readymade Plarn (plastic yarn). So, if you would make Plarn out of your plastic bags we would really appreciate it. Norma is happy to give you a person- al lesson if you wish. It takes 50 hours and approximately 1500-2000 bags to make one 4’x 6’ Sleeping Mat. Having the readymade Plarn available; mats can be crocheted and completed much faster. It means a lot to Norma and the RSVP Merry Mat Makers if they don’t have to constantly stop and make Plarn and the work goes more smoothly. The Merry Mat Makers thank and appreciate B’nai Harim for keeping them supplied with plastic bags. To date, we have distributed 30 Mats. There were tears of gratitude from the homeless veterans and the tent families when we and Operation Chillout members distributed the mats. We learned that the waterproof, bug proof mats, were used as blankets during the below freezing temperatures that plagued the Poconos this winter. If you are unable to make Plarn please keep the plastic bags coming. Both are greatly appreciated. Todah Rabah. Hugs’n’ Shalom. Directions: How to Make Plarn 1. Gather clean plastic bags. All shapes and sizes work. 2. Lay one bag flat on its side and smooth out wrinkles. 3. Cut the handles off bag. 4. Cut bottom off bag. 5. Fold bottom of bag up to top. 6. Fold up again 3or 4 times until you have a strip a little more than 1” wide. 7. Cut plastic into 1” sections. Keep sections sized evenly. 8. Unfold each section = plastic loop. 9. Lay plastic loops on a table. 10. The ends of each loop face each other. 11. Lift up the end of the loop to your right and place over the loop to your left. 12. Lift up the left loop. 13. Reach under the left loop and pick up the right loop. 14. Pull the right loop to the right. 15. Keep pulling gently to the right while holding the left loop. 16. A knot will begin to form between the loops. 17. Pull until the knot is tight. One piece of Plarn has been made. 18. Continue with the above steps to attach another loop to the end of the Plarn strand. Roll Plarn strands into a ball. Similar directions come from The Savvy Age website and it also includes a video tutorial called Plastic Bags = Plarn!

BOOK CLUB NEWS - FEBRUARY 2019 by Barbara Kapitansky

Our selection for the next book club meeting to be held on Saturday, March 16, 2019, will be “The Hiding Place,” by Corrie Ten Boom. Corrie was a Dutch watchmaker who along with her family risked their lives to help Jews and underground workers escape from the Nazis. Captured and placed in Hitler’s concentration camps, only Corrie survived to tell the story. Come join us on Saturday, March 16, 2019 after the Oneg to discuss this riveting story of how she and her family saved so many lives. All congregants are welcome to attend.

NETTING IT OUT by Honi Gruenberg

I am struck by those things that we share. March brings us to St. Patrick’s Day where many will enjoy Corned Beef and Cabbage. While corned beef was not un- heard of in Ireland, the cost of beef was prohibitive for most Irish who used pork instead of beef. “Corning” meat comes from the process of curing meat with grains of rock salt which are referred to as corns of salt. The Irish Times https://www.irishtimes.com/ life-and-style/food-and-drink/why-are-millions-of-irish-americans-serving-corned-beef-on-st- patrick-s-day-1.2575518 has a great article on the history of corned beef. I’ve always thought of corned beef as a Jewish food as in Katz’s corned beef and pastrami on rye with Russian. It turns out that the use of corned beef by the Irish in America occurred during the famine in the 1840s when a large number of Irish families immigrated to the United States. These Irish-Americans discovered that pork was expensive, and the kosher cured bris- ket sold by the Jewish butchers ended up replacing the corned pork (“bacon”) as the St. Pat- rick’s Day celebratory meal. I have such fond memories of corned beef from a deli, that the St. Patrick’s Day corned beef and cabbage would come in second place as my preferred meal. The Irish did however give us Irish Soda bread which I look forward to every March. Please do not tell Meredith! As we celebrate March with Purim and St. Patrick’s Day, let’s celebrate the many contributions our melting pot brings. I’ve read that our Queen Esther was a vegetarian. I read on My Jewish Learning https://www.myjewishlearning.com/article/9-things-you-didnt-know-about-purim/ that according to midrash while Queen Esther lived in the court of King Ahasuerus she fol- lowed a vegetarian diet mostly of legumes so that she would not break Kosher laws. There is a tradition of eating beans and peas on Purim to this day. I’m planning on sticking with booze and hamantaschen although rice and beans is another cross-cultural delicacy. Skip makes a great corned beef and pastrami, thanks to the Hanukah electric smoker. He loves his gifts of briskets from his family and friends. Traditional Passover brisket or a beef barbeque favorite; corned beef and cabbage or corned beef on rye? I say a melting pot can only go so far. After all, our Purim Shpiel is Fiddler on the Roof – Tradition, Tradition!
