Is one required to switch seats? 1. THE WAY WE LIVE NOW: THE ETHICIST. Between the Sexes By RANDY COHEN. OCT. 27, 2002 The courteous and competent real-estate agent I'd just hired to rent my house shocked and offended me when, after we signed our contract, he refused to shake my hand, saying that as an Orthodox Jew he did not touch women. As a feminist, I oppose sex discrimination of all sorts. However, I also support freedom of religious expression. How do I balance these conflicting values? Should I tear up our contract? J.L., New York This culture clash may not allow you to reconcile the values you esteem. Though the agent dealt you only a petty slight, without ill intent, you're entitled to work with someone who will treat you with the dignity and respect he shows his male clients. If this involved only his own person -- adherence to laws concerning diet or dress, for example -- you should of course be tolerant. But his actions directly affect you. And sexism is sexism, even when motivated by religious convictions.

From the hour that the kohanim enter to eat their terumah Until the end of the first watch, in the opinion of Rabbi Eliezer. The Sages say: Until midnight. Rabban Gamliel says: Until morning. It happened that his sons came from a wedding feast. They said to him: We have not yet recited the Shema. He said to them: If it has not yet morned, you are obligated to recite it. Babylonian Talmud Berakhot 2a What is the context of the Mishnah’s opening “From when”? Also, why does it teach about the evening first, rather than about the morning? The context is Scripture saying “when you lie down and when you arise” (Devarim 6:7, 11:9). what the Mishnah intends is: “The time of the Shema of lying-down – when is it?” Alternatively: The context is Creation, as Scripture writes “There was evening and there was morning”. Mishnah Berakhot 1:1 (continued) Not only this – rather, everything about which the Sages say until midnight – their mitzvah is until morning. The burning of fats and organs – their mitzvah is until morning. All sacrifices that must be eaten in a day – their mitzvah is until morning.

  • Lincoln Square Synagogue for As Sexuality, the Role Of
    IflN mm Lincoln Square Synagogue Volume 27, No. 3 WINTER ISSUE Shevat 5752 - January, 1992 FROM THE RABBI'S DESK.- It has been two years since I last saw leaves summon their last colorful challenge to their impending fall. Although there are many things to wonder at in this city, most ofthem are works ofhuman beings. Only tourists wonder at the human works, and being a New Yorker, I cannot act as a tourist. It was good to have some thing from G-d to wonder at, even though it was only leaves. Wondering is an inspiring sensation. A sense of wonder insures that our rela¬ tionship with G-d is not static. It keeps us in an active relationship, and protects us from davening or fulfilling any other mitzvah merely by rote. A lack of excitement, of curiosity, of surprise, of wonder severs our attachment to what we do. Worse: it arouses G-d's disappointment I wonder most at our propensity to cease wondering. None of us would consciously decide to deprive our prayers and actions of meaning. Yet, most of us are not much bothered by our lack of attachment to our tefilot and mitzvot. We are too comfortable, too certain that we are living properly. That is why I am happy that we hosted the Wednesday Night Lecture with Rabbi Riskin and Dr. Ruth. The lecture and the controversy surrounding it certainly woke us up. We should not need or even use controversy to wake ourselves up. However, those of us who were joined in argument over the lecture were forced to confront some of the serious divisions in the Orthodox community, and many of its other problems.

  • From the Rabbi's Desk the Festival of Chanukah Retells the Struggle Between Traditional Judaism and the Forces of Secularism Which Seek to Engulf It
    Vol. 3, Xo. 4 December, 1966 Kislev-Tevet, 5727 From The Rabbi's Desk The Festival of Chanukah retells the struggle between traditional Judaism and the forces of secularism which seek to engulf it. The Hellenists maintained that the esthetic values of Greek philosophy were far more noble than the outdated rituals of ancient Judea, that the dicta of Aristotle ought replace the laws of Moses. The one commandment most maligned was that of circumcision. How could civilized people, aware of the perfection of the human body, agree to any operation which would alter a physical organ? In truth, many of the Hellenized Jews underwent plastic surgery to conceal their "shameful" circumcision. Similarly in our own day is the rite of circum¬ cision being questioned and rejected. All too fre¬ quently a father asks me to name his new-born son in the synagogue after a so-called brit-milah was performed by a doctor on the third or fourth day after birth. So has twentieth century America trans¬ formed a religious imperative into a mere biological operation! The rite of circumcision brands our regenerative organ with the unescapable fact of our Jewishness. It declares to the son of Abraham at birth that the obligations and privileges of his Judaism are an intrinsic element of the very origin of his being. It eloquently preaches the power of man to perfect himself and the primacy of God over every aspect of man's physical existence. But most significantly it symbolizes commitment, the kind of commitment which involves the shedding of one's blood (hatafat dam brit) for one's faith and one's God.

  • Passover 2021 Guidelines Elebrating Passover This Year Will Once Again Not Be in an Ideal Form
    passover 2021 guidelines elebrating Passover this year will once again not be in an ideal form. Hopefully, the challenges presented by COVID-19 will open doors to creativity and the learning of new skills. In addition to Cour civic legal requirements, as always, it is crucial that we take seriously our obligation as Jews to safeguard our lives and the lives of others. This year, Pesach is immediately preceded by Shabbat. As a result, some practices are modified, especially when and what we eat on Shabbat. Selling Chametz / Ma’ot Chittin Adath Israel is once again pleased to assist our members in the selling of their chametz. As the synagogue office is closed, please do not mail or fax chametz selling forms. Rather, all chametz sales should be completed online HERE. It is a mitzvah prior to Passover to provide tzedakah so that those in need can appropriately celebrate the holiday. This year, there is already a great need within our community. Please support Toronto’s vulnerable Jews by donating HERE. New Clothing Many have the custom of purchasing new clothing prior to Passover. This practice should be suspended. Siyyum Bechorot The virtual Siyyum Bechorot will take place on Thursday, March 25. Services begin at 7:30 a.m., with the Siyyum starting 8:15am. We are honoured that Dr. Jack Lipinsky will once again lead the teaching. Click HERE to log in. Searching for Chametz The search for Chametz should take place on Thursday night, preceded by the opening blessing. If you plan to consume chametz during Shabbat, then do not recite the kol chamirah closing declaration.

  • 0045 in 8193 05 Hilchot Shvitat Yom Tov R031 Draft 01
    Food on Yom Tov Ref: Sefer Zemanim, Hilchot Shvitat Yom Tov, Chapter 1–6 On the Yamim Tovim (Holidays) there is an obligation to rest as on Shabbat, but the laws are more lenient. This leniency mainly allows for work related to the preparation of food to be permissible. In addition, 2 other labours which are indirectly linked to food preparation are also allowed i.e. carrying and kindling a fire. s The Rabanim have been further lenient with the latter two labours by allowing activities even if they are not related to food preparation for example carrying books, keys, children etc. on Yom Tov. • Further, even other labours connected with food may be allowed e.g. slaughtering, kneading, baking etc. However, if it was equally possible to do these labours before Yom Tov, then it is forbidden to do these on Yom Tov (because the labours are arduous and will detract from the joy of Yom Tov) In contrast carrying items which could have been prepared before Yom Tov is allowed because the work is not arduous and it adds to the joy of Yom Tov. Similarly, it is forbidden to bake or cook on Yom Tov for eating after Yom Tov. • Bathing and anointing are labours which have also been given leniency for Yom Tov but one may not wash one’s entire body, and one can use hot water. • “Muktzeh” (something set aside for another purpose) and “nolad” (something newly created) is forbidden on Yom Tov. An example of “muktzeh” is an apple that one plans on selling.

  • Young Israel of Hollywood-Ft. Lauderdale Guide to Tefillah and Halachic Times
    Young Israel of Hollywood-Ft. Lauderdale Guide to Tefillah and Halachic Times Thursday, May 28th; 5th of Sivan Erev Shavuot Candle lighting 7:49p Mincha 7:55p Sunset 8:07p Nightfall: 8:46p Eruv Tavshilin should be prepared. This year, Shavuot occurs on Friday and Shabbat. We are not generally allowed to prepare on one day of a holiday for another day. However, the Rabbis permitted preparing food for Shabbat on Erev Shabbat, provided an Eruv Tavshilin is made in advance. Through the process of Eruv Tavshilin, one actually begins Shabbat preparations on Erev Yom Tov, i.e. Thursday. An Eruv Tavshilin is made on Thursday in order to permit cooking on Friday for Shabbat. An Eruv Tavshilin consists of bread (or matzah) and a cooked food such as fish, meat or a hardboiled egg. The head of the house or any other member of the household takes the plate with the cooked food and the bread or matzah (preferably in the right hand) and says: ברוך אתה ה' אלקינו מלך העולם אשר קדשנו במצותיו וצונו על מצות ערוב We then recite the Eruv Tavshilin text (in Aramaic or English) בהדין עירובא יהא שרא לנא לאפויי ולבשולי ולאטמוני ולאדלוקי שרגא ולאפוקי ולמעבד כל צרכנא מיומא טבא לשבתא “By virtue of this Eruv, we (the members of the household) shall be permitted to cook, bake, keep food warm, carry, light candles and do all preparations on Yom Tov (i.e. Friday) for Shabbat.” Even though the Eruv is made, the food for Shabbat must be fully cooked before Shabbat begins and should preferably be prepared early on Friday, while there is still much of the day left, rather than leaving the preparations for the last minute.
