On the other side of this page you will find a B'racha Acharona for you to "clip & save". It is being presented in honor of Parshat Eikev, the parsha from which we learn the mitzva of Birkat HaMazon. The Torah inspired our Sages to require our making brachot before and after all food, as well as brachot for many other situations. Birkat HaMazon is also called Birkat Shalosh, because of the three brachot it consists of in order to fulfill the Torah's mitzva (a fourth bracha and the rest of benching being added by our Sages). Bracha Mei'ein Shalosh, a.k.a. Bracha Acharona, derives from the close• ness of the following two p'sukim: :W«¨a§cE o¤QgW¤ zi¬¥fÎu¤x` «¤ oF®O¦x§e dg¨p¥`§zE ot¬¤¤b§e d[r ½¨r§UE Æd¨H¦g u¤x` ³¤ :KlÎo© «¨ z«¨p xW£ ¬¤ ` dgDr¨ H©d u¤x`¨ ¬¨dÎl©r Li½Gr¤l'¡` '´dÎz¤` ƨY§k©x«¥aE Y§¨r®¨a¨U§e gY§¨ l©k`§ «¨e 0 'd wxt x iwxt e"dl ch. 5 zy t z zea` r a w y a 774 Aug 3•4, '07 • f"qyz a` mgpn 'k This Shabbat is the 316th day (of 355), 46th Shabbat (of 51) of 5767 gi:g mixac ...©JrgM L§²l o¬¥]rP©d `Ed À iM ´¦ Li½Gr¤l'¡` '´dÎz¤` ƨY§x©k«¨f§e The Art & Science of Saying Thank You Hi, it's Phil • I'm getting personal again.

  • 1 American Victims of the 1929 Hebron Massacre Dr. Yitzchok
    American Victims Of The 1929 Hebron Massacre Dr. Yitzchok Levine Department of Mathematical Sciences Stevens Institute of Technology Hoboken, NJ 07030 [email protected] Introduction On August 27, 1929 The New York Times ran a front page article under the banner 8 AMERICANS LISTED IN 70 HEBRON DEAD Attack on Rabbinical College was Savage – 18 Killed in Banker’s House WOMEN AND CHILDREN SLAIN The headline was, of course, referring to the infamous and unprovoked Hebron Massacre that Arabs perpetrated on innocent Jews on August 24. Many of those killed on this Shabbos were students studying in the branch of the Slabodka Yeshiva then located in Hebron. In 1924 the Lithuanian government tried to draft into the army the majority of students studying in the Slabodka Yeshiva. This, of course, threatened the very existence of the Yeshiva. Since Rabbi Moshe Mordechai Epstein, the Rosh Yeshiva, was in America at that time, Rabbi Yechezkel Sarna tried to have the decree averted, but to no avail. After consulting Rabbi Nosson Tzvi Finkel, known as the Alter of Slabodka, it was decided to transfer the yeshiva to Eretz Yisroel. The Alter sent a telegram to Rabbi Epstein asking if he approved of the plan. Rabbi Epstein wired back his consent promising to make every effort to raise the funds necessary for the yeshiva's relocation. That same year the Alter sent Rabbi Sarna to Eretz Yisroel to choose a site for the yeshiva and to coordinate its establishment there. He was also charged with securing visas for the students. After evaluating various options, Rabbi Sarna chose the city of Hebron as the yeshiva's new home.

  • 1 Teruma 5724. Alef. 1. A. the Wood Was Originally Planted by Yaakov In
    Teruma 5724. Alef. 1. a. The wood was originally planted by Yaakov in Egypt and brought out of Egypt when the people were freed from slavery. b.The wood grew near Mt. Sinai and was harvested when needed. c. The wood was purchased from peoples with whom the Jews traded. 2. The reason why RaShI explains a second time how Yaakov originally planted these trees in Egypt in anticipation of the eventual construction of the Mishkan is because of the “Heh Rather than simply making boards for the Mishkan, the people .”הקרשים“ ,HaYedia” in 26:15 made the boards, which had already been anticipated. It would appear that while other parts of the Mishkan were also constructed from this material, i.e., the Aron (25:10) and the Shulchan (25:23), the main reason for the growing of the wood and probably the purpose for which most of the wood was devoted, was the construction of the boards. 3. In the first commentary, the Peirush HaAroch,1 Ibn Ezra prefers the interpretation that the וכל אשר נמצא אתו עצי “ (trees were growing in the vicinity of Mt. Sinai. The phrase (35:24 refers to those who had harvested some of these locally ”שטים לכל מלאכת העבודה הביאו grown trees in order to construct shelters for themselves, were now being called upon to contribute that wood for the purpose of constructing the Mishkan. In the Peirush HaKatzar, Ibn Ezra, probably based upon the same phrase that he used to construct his first interpretation, now redefines his understanding to be similar to that of the Midrash and RaShI (he does not necessarily accept that this was all part of a plan that Yaakov had shared with his family; only that the Jews brought the wood from Egypt in anticipation of their own lodging needs), i.e., that these were brought from Egypt rather than harvested locally.
