Now if you wanted to blow the shofar you had to learn an elaborate system of kavanot—secret prayers that were said just before you blew the shofar to direct the shofar blasts and to see that they had the proper effect in the supernal realms. All the prospective It is hard to believe that the summer is shofar blowers practiced these kavannot for months. They were difficult gone. As our schools begin and holidays and complex. There was one fellow who wanted to blow the shofar for draw near, I look forward to the year with the Baal Shem Tov so badly that he had been practicing these kavanot for anticipation, possibly this year even more years. But when his time came to audition he realized that nothing he had so than in the past. Personally, this summer done had prepared him adequately for the experience of standing before was a trying time for my family, having lost this great and holy man, and he fell apart.

Siddur for Shabbat
úáùì øåãéñ Siddur for Shabbat úáùì øåãéñ Siddur for Shabbat David Singer, Editor Berkeley Hillel 5763 2003 i ii Contents Preface iv On Usage v Shabbat Evening Service 1 Shabbat Morning Service 43 Havdalah 95 Supplementary Prayers 97 Songs 103 iii Preface This siddur was first created by the Reform minyan at UC Berkeley, California in the spring of 2003. In deciding to compile this siddur, students embarked on an ambitious process: how could they best combine over twenty distinct creative service packets into one inclusive and comprehensive siddur which would suit the needs of the Berkeley Reform Jewish community’s prayer in all circumstances for years to come? Further, the prayer service, while in need of energy and creativity, was also worthy of respect and in due need of a certain amount of structure which service packets could not provide. It is our hope that this siddur meets that need, and accordingly that it can and will be used for Erev and Shacharit Shabbat and Havdalah services as well as song sessions. Further, it is our hope that this siddur will help to meet the same need in other youth and young adult minyanim for years to come. We thank the many people who have helped to make this siddur a reality, especially to those who spent countless hours compiling and editing. To David Singer, Melissa Loeffler, Jill Cozen-Harel, Becky Gimbel, David Abraham and Athalia Markowitz special thanks are due. The original printing of this siddur would not be possible if not for the generous financial support provided by Temple Beth El of Berkeley, CA.

Own It! the Blessing of Shul and Judaism Rabbi Daniel Cotzin Burg, Beth Am Synagogue May 21, 2016 ~ 13 Iyar 5776 I've Been Th
Own it! The Blessing of Shul and Judaism Rabbi Daniel Cotzin Burg, Beth Am Synagogue May 21, 2016 ~ 13 Iyar 5776 I’ve been thinking about the issue of ownership. What exactly does it mean to possess something in Jewish tradition? Perhaps it’s raising two kids in America today who, despite being generally pretty awesome kids, seem to have a fairly inexhaustible desire to acquire stuff. This is human, is it not? And it’s certainly American as apple pie – as long as it’s my apple pie. And we Jews don’t eschew ownership. We value the material world, the physical realm. But there’s also a metaphysical realm through which our interaction with the material is tempered. We understand that access to things – iPads and sports cars to be sure, but also healthy food and clean drinking water and safe shelter – is not universal, and often inequitable. There are too many people in this world (and too many in this city) who don’t have their needs met at virtually any Maslowian level. But our tradition also teaches that even though we should enjoy the things we’ve earned through hard work, ingenuity or skill, we should never take these things for granted. And we do this in two ways: First, by recognizing that ultimately none of it, nothing of this material world, fully belongs to us and, second, by expressing gratitude for what we do have. Which is to say, enjoy what you have, for as long as you have it! And use it well. Take this Sanctuary for example.

Oasis in the Wilderness Torah Reflections on Parashat Bemdibar
Oasis in the Wilderness Torah Reflections on Parashat Bemdibar Numbers 1:1 – 4:20 This week’s Torah portion takes us into the fourth book of the Torah, Numbers. The English title refers to a census of the Israelites found in the first chapter of the book. The Hebrew title is Bemidbar , literally, In the Wilderness. A wilderness or a desert can have great beauty in terms of land formations. Through its very starkness it offers a pristine purity. More often, however, we think of the wilderness as a place of barrenness and sterility. In a recent Haftarah reading, the prophet Jeremiah contrasted a bush found in the “scorched places of the wilderness” with a “tree planted by waters” which sends its roots to a stream (Jeremiah 17:6, 8). The whole book of Numbers is set bemidbar , in the wilderness. Throughout these chapters there is little relief from the desert challenges. On several occasions, the Israelites voice their complaints to Moses. For many people in our more mature years, or for those of us who are experiencing physical, emotional, or spiritual difficulties, like in the book of Numbers, life often seems barren and fruitless. Life is grainy and gritty. We thirst for some kind of relief. We view our present as unpleasant, and may see our future as hopeless. We lack the inner resources to dream. While in the book of Numbers, the Israelites will reside in the desert for forty years, these are not times bereft of relief. Embedded in this book of the desert there are, to continue the metaphor, occasions which are oases of hope and fruitful blessing.
