One sentence that we hear repeated so often in the Eastertide is, “Peace be with you.” Every time Congratulations to our Newly Baptized! Jesus appears to his Apostles, he greets them, “Shalom aleichem!” in Hebrew. ‘Peace’ is a word Damian Rafael Lugo which features a lot in the Christian vocabulary. We use it so often, especially during the Hunter Cole Jasek Eucharistic celebration and in other prayers. As Christians, our very presence in the world is to bring "shalom" to our neighborhood – our homes, our places of work, our schools, and in the streets. During the Eucharistic celebration when the priest invites us to “offer each other the sign of peace,” it is only symbolic of our call to share that peace with others.

  • Shalom Aleichem
    Rosh Hashonah ראש־השנה 2013 / 5774 This High Holiday program was created by Boston Workmen’s Circle/Arbeter Ring 1762 Beacon Street Brookline, MA 02445-2124 617-566-6281 http://www.circleboston.org We gratefully thank countless sources and the many individuals who provided inspiring and thoughtful text, poems, art and music, contributing to this richly moving annual community event. 1 Sholom Aleykhem (Instrumental, followed by singing) Leshone Toyve. Welcome to the New Year, 5774. For thousands of years the Jewish people have celebrated the New Year with joy, hope, and thoughtful reflection. Today we are here to continue that tradition. The holidays of Rosh Hashonah and Yom Kippur provide time and space for self-examination and personal reflection. We are here to reflect on the year that has passed and open our hearts to the possibilities of the year to come. Today is a day of introspection and growth, of assessment and healing, of receptiveness and renewal. We evaluate and measure ourselves and our choices. We strive to take responsibility and to write our own destiny for the New Year. We ask: What has transpired this past year and what adjustments can we make to the next year individually, in our communities, and in the world? What do Rosh Hashonah and Yom Kippur mean to our community and to our families and ourselves? Today, we will consider these questions together, as a community. At this time, please turn and introduce yourself to someone sitting near you. If you are comfortable, join hands as we sing.

    International Bible Teaching Ministry Update 2011 Issue 6 -- Israel Tour, Baltic Trip "Challenging men and women of faith to think" All newsletters available at the main website, douglasjacoby.com. This website contains over 8000 pages of (free) material. The second (subscription) website contains advanced N.T. studies as well as weekly O.T. podcasts. That address is jacobypremium.com. 1 November 2011 Damascus Gate Hello from Jerusalem! This morning I walked completely around the massive city walls. I was inspired by Psalm 48:12- 13: "Walk about Zion, go around her, count her towers, consider well her ramparts, view her citadels, that you may tell of them to the next generation." The 90-minute stroll reminded me of all the incredible things we've experienced here in the Holy Land during this year's tour. We prayed in Gethsemane, swam in the Dead Sea, and inspected the Dead Sea Scrolls, proof that the Bible has been well preserved through the millennia. We ate hummus in Bethlehem, explored Armageddon, and sat at the feet of those (on both sides) whose lives have been ravished by the Palestinian conflict. The Bible came alive as we walked on the Temple Mount and in the synagogue in Capernaum. We even saw the ossuary (bone box) of the high priest who plotted Jesus' crucifixion, as well as the monument of Pontius Pilate, who authorized it. You'll find dozens of fascinating photos from the trip here. Please take a peek! The 2011 Biblical Study Tour (Israel and Jordan) has been both exciting and unifying, with participants from all corners of the Restoration Movement (Churches of Christ, Christian Churches, International Churches of Christ, and International Christian Church).

    1 Sunday, April 18, 2021 Easter 3B Luke 24:36–48 PEACE BE WITH YOU Beloved people of God, grace and peace to you from the risen Jesus. AMEN. “Peace be with you.” What a beautiful greeting Jesus offers his disciples in the first verse of our gospel! It is the same greet he offered three times in last Sunday’s gospel reading from John. “Peace be with you” became the classic greeting early Christians used to greet one another. Given the challenges and persecution many faced, such a greeting would have meant so much. It was not an exclusively Christian greeting. As Daniel Esparza explains, “peace be with you” is also “a traditional Jewish and Arabic greeting. In both languages, when one is greeted with `shalom aleichem’ or `as-salaam alaykhum’ (Hebrew and Arabic respectively for `peace be with you’), the typical reply is `aleichem shalom’ or `wa alaykumu as-salaam’ (`and peace be with you, too’).”1 Esparza clarifies that this greeting is not limited to “wishing each other a peaceful existence”; it is about actively building harmony. He refers to the first couple of lines of the beautiful Prayer of St. Francis: 1 https://aleteia.org/2019/04/28/where-does-the-expression-peace-be-with-you-come-from/ 2 “Lord, make us instruments of your peace: where there is hatred, let us sow love.” What makes “Peace be with you” special in our gospel reading is not its uniqueness; what makes it special is the amazing reality that the risen Lord is offering it. We might have anticipated that the risen Jesus’ greeting would have produced elation in the defeated band of disciples.

  • MINYANIM: BULGARIA Sephardic and Ashkenazic Jews
    MI NY ANIM: BULGARIA Sephardic and Ashkenazic Jews By: Elisheva Kupferman; Conceptual Creator: Esti Moskovitz-Kalman 1. Introduction: Jewish culture developed throughout history and around the world. While Jewish people from all over the world share commonalities that unify them, each world Jewish community also incubated its own art, music, liturgy, and customs that is unique to them. And though each distinct community or locale boasts their own traditions, the broadest divide in customs is between the “Sephardic” and “Ashkenazic” communities. The term “Sephardim” refers to the Jewish communities that descended from Jews who lived in Spain and Portugal Before the Spanish Inquisition. More commonly, however, the term “Sephardim” is used in a wider sense to include most Jews of Asian and African origin, who use a Sephardic style of liturgy. Sephardim traditionally pray using Minhag Sefarad , which is quite similar to Nusach Edot haMizrach (liturgy of the Eastern Congregations). The term “Ashkenazim” refers to Jews descended from the medieval Jewish communities along the Rhine in Germany from Alsace in the south to the Rhineland in the north. Though Ashkenazim are literally "German Jews," the term now refers to all Jews from who identify with these traditions, though they span Western, Central, and Eastern European descent. Most Jews from Europe identify as Ashkenazi, with the noted exception of communities near the Mediterranean. The Jewish community of Bulgaria dates back to antiquity, and is made up of both Sephardic Jews (who traditionally spoke Ladino), as well as Ashkenazic Jews. As such, it is fitting that as a local Bulgarian group of Jewish leaders, you would choose to take a deeper look into the ways in which both communities differ, and where they might connect.

  • Address on Yom Kippur 30.11.2006 | Turcotte, Jean-Claude Cardinal
    Jewish-Christian Relations Insights and Issues in the ongoing Jewish-Christian Dialogue Address on Yom Kippur 30.11.2006 | Turcotte, Jean-Claude Cardinal Address by the Cardinal Archbishop of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, on the occasion of his visit to Temple Emanu-El-Beth Sholom, Montreal, for the Yom Kippur service on October 13, 2005. Address on Yom Kippur Jean-Claude Cardinal Turcotte For the first time in the history of the Archdiocese of Montreal (Canada), its archbishop took part in the prayers of Yom Kippur with the Jewish community. On October 13, 2005, Cardinal Jean-Claude Turcotte was the guest of Rabbi Leigh Lerner at Temple Emanu-El- Beth Sholom. Following the prayers, the cardinal addressed the congregation, to underscore the importance of the declaration Nostra Ætate, which was issued during the final session of the Second Vatican Council. With his permission, we reproduce his address here. Shalom aleichem!1 These two words with which I address you—and which I am undoubtedly not pronouncing quite perfectly—were also used by Pope Benedict XVI last August, during his visit to the synagogue of Cologne. I wish to make those words my own. I make them my own, after having prayed with you today on the occasion of Yom Kippur—a powerful moment for me, which I am experiencing for the first time and which, to the best of my knowledge, has never been experienced by any of the other bishops of Montréal. As I came here to pray with you, my thoughts turned spontaneously to Jesus, who regularly went to the synagogue, and who taught there2 .

  • Shalom Aleichem”: the Liturgical Poem Marking the Beginning of the Friday Night Shabbat Meal
    Reflections on Shabbat Prayer #11 “Shalom Aleichem”: The Liturgical Poem Marking the Beginning of the Friday Night Shabbat Meal R. Yaakov Bieler Although many could not think of reciting Kiddush on Friday nights without first singing “Shalom Aleichem,” the custom to sing this Piyut (liturgical poem) is in fact only of relatively recent origin. Aryeh Leiv ben Shlomo Gordon, in his commentary Iyun Tefilla,1 writes, This Piyut is neither found in the Siddurim of the Rishonim (the Rabbinic luminaries who lived between 1000 and 1700 CE) or of the Teimanim (Yeminite Jews whose traditions are considered among Judaism’s most ancient.) And its recitation was initiated by the Kabbalists 180 years ago.2 And Sepharadim also say it. Nevertheless, even if mystics were the first to incorporate “Shalom Aleichem” into the Friday night home rituals, the fact that its underlying concept is derived from a fairly straight-forward Talmudic Aggada (poetic, philosophical, theological, historical, exigetical material as opposed to Halachic discussions and dicta) suggests that in addition to whatever esoteric meanings some may have attributed to the poem’s words, there are ideas and concepts that are accessible to Jews on every level of observance and learning. Consequently a careful consideration of its concepts and underlying ideas has the potential to significantly enhance our experience of Shabbat. Shabbat 119b Said R. Chisda in the name of Mar Ukba: Everyone who prays on Friday evening and recites VeYechulu,3 two Serving Angels accompany him and rest their hands upon his head and say to him: (Yeshayahu 6:7) “…And your iniquities will depart and your sins will be atoned.” It was taught: R.

  • I and the Village: Nostalgia for a Homeland In
    I and the Village: Nostalgia for a Homeland in Yiddish Art and Literature Author[s]: MC Koch Source: Moveable Type, Vol.12, ‘Nostalgia’ (2020) DOI: 10.14324/111.1755-4527.106 Moveable Type is a Graduate, Peer-Reviewed Journal based in the Department of English at UCL. © 2020 MC Koch.

Moveable Type 12 (2020) I and the village: Nostalgia for a Homeland in Yiddish Art and Literature MC Koch This paper addresses nostalgia for the lost homeland of nineteenth-century Eastern European Jewry, whose state of exile and lack of national boundaries problematized this complex notion. It focuses on Marc Chagall’s 1911 painting I and the Village. The painting is viewed, both critically and popularly, as a fantastical image of Chagall’s childhood home in a predominantly Jewish town in Eastern Europe, otherwise known as the shtetl. Yet it is more than a personal expression of memory and loss. Its transfiguration of the past into an idyllic world relates to traditional Judaic notions of remembrance found in sacred texts, Walter Benjamin’s reconciliation of these notions with modernist thought, and the birth of modern Yiddish literature in the nineteenth century. Through nostalgic depictions in literature and art, the shtetl was brought to the popular imagination at the moment of its historical dissolution. These fictional representations offered a terrain that could not be confiscated and a space, inseparable from the past, in which historical transformation could occur.
