  • Tehillat Hashem and Other Verses Before Birkat Ha-Mazon
    301 Tehillat Hashem and Other Verses Before Birkat Ha-Mazon By: ZVI RON In this article we investigate the origin and development of saying vari- ous Psalms and selected verses from Psalms before Birkat Ha-Mazon. In particular, we will attempt to explain the practice of some Ashkenazic Jews to add Psalms 145:21, 115:18, 118:1 and 106:2 after Ps. 126 (Shir Ha-Ma‘alot) and before Birkat Ha-Mazon. Psalms 137 and 126 Before Birkat Ha-Mazon The earliest source for reciting Ps. 137 (Al Naharot Bavel) before Birkat Ha-Mazon is found in the list of practices of the Tzfat kabbalist R. Moshe Cordovero (1522–1570). There are different versions of this list, but all versions include the practice of saying Al Naharot Bavel.1 Some versions specifically note that this is to recall the destruction of the Temple,2 some versions state that the Psalm is supposed to be said at the meal, though not specifically right before Birkat Ha-Mazon,3 and some versions state that the Psalm is only said on weekdays, though no alternative Psalm is offered for Shabbat and holidays.4 Although the ex- act provenance of this list is not clear, the parts of it referring to the recitation of Ps. 137 were already popularized by 1577.5 The mystical work Seder Ha-Yom by the 16th century Tzfat kabbalist R. Moshe ben Machir was first published in 1599. He also mentions say- ing Al Naharot Bavel at a meal in order to recall the destruction of the 1 Moshe Hallamish, Kabbalah in Liturgy, Halakhah and Customs (Ramat Gan: Bar Ilan University Press, 2000), pp.

  • Max Hirsch (1875–1941): His Forgotten Fate and His Contributions to the Founding of Modern Rheumatology Wolfgang Keitel1, Leif Olsson2, Eric L
    DOI: 10.5152/eurjrheum.2016.15101 Original Investigation Max Hirsch (1875–1941): His forgotten fate and his contributions to the founding of modern rheumatology Wolfgang Keitel1, Leif Olsson2, Eric L. Matteson3 Abstract Objective: To elucidate the connections between balneology and rheumatology in the founding period of the discipline of rheumatology, and describe the contributions of Max Hirsch, MD in the formation of professional rheumatology societies. Material and Methods: Historical documents from the medical history collection of Vogelsang –Gommern, Germany, and original person- al documents of the Hirsch family and information from the medical and historical period literature were used in developing this report. Results: The first efforts at organizing rheumatology as a recognized clinical and academic discipline took place in the 1920s. Many of the first proponents were balneologists who cared for patients with chronic arthritic conditions without the benefit of effective medications. Max Hirsch, MD was a major figure in the development of modern rheumatology as it emerged from the provenance of balneology and orthopedics as a recognized organized medical discipline, contributing to the founding of the German Society for Rheumatology and the International League Against Rheumatism. Conclusion: Max Hirsch made significant contributions to scientific and organized rheumatology in the early days of the discipline. His contributions to the field and his fate as a Jewish physician have only recently come to light. Keywords: Max Hirsch, history of rheumatology, balneology Introduction The leaders and founders of rheumatology as a formal academic discipline and the initiators of national and international professional rheumatology societies and organizations are well known and appreciated in the rheumatology and wider medical communities.

  • Rabbi Raymond Apple
    Rabbi Raymond Apple The title of Honorary Fellow of the University was conferred upon Rabbi Raymond Apple by the Chancellor Dame Leonie Kramer AC DBE at a graduation ceremony held at 9.30am on 18 November 2005. Citation Chancellor, I have the honour to present Rabbi Raymond Apple for the conferring of the title of Honorary Fellow of the University. Rabbi Apple was awarded the Queen’s Silver Jubilee Medal in 1977, became a Member of the Order of Australia in 1979, received the Reserve Force Decoration in 1990 and the Centenary of Federation Medal in 2001 and was appointed an Officer in the Order of Australia in 2004. Born in Melbourne, he studied Arts and Law at The University of Melbourne and has a Master of Letters degree from the University of New England from which University he received a Distinguished Alumni award in 1994. He was ordained as a Rabbi in London and until 1972 ministered to two London synagogues and was a member of the Chief Rabbi’s Cabinet. In 1972 he returned to Australia to a post as senior minister of the Great Synagogue in Sydney, where he has remained as Senior Rabbi for 32 years, despite attempts to lure him back to England to the Chief Rabbinate. His association with the University of Sydney began in 1973 when he began to fill an important gap in the Curriculum of the Department of Semitic Studies through his teaching of Rabbinic Hebrew and, later, Jewish Civilisation, Thought and Culture. He was a consultant to the Department when the courses in Jewish Civilisation, Thought and Culture were being designed and developed for a growing Faculty of Arts.

We discover ourselves by encountering dimensions of our existence that we generally don’t even notice. It’s I would not want you not to have time to prepare for my awesome! arrival. No, you do not need to worry about the spare room or extra food. I am not that kind of guest. The English name, “High Holydays,” does not talk about awe but about holiness. What I am is a presence – and an “Holy” is from the Middle English “hool”, opportunity. meaning whole, perfect or excellent.

I read virtually all of them when they were first published. They have been a central part of my education in the history of liberalism and of the Austrian School of economics, and I consider myself privileged indeed to have encountered Professor Raico and his work early on in my intellectual development.
