Our amazing Arie Crown teachers came together last past Wednesday night at our Early Childhood campus for a cooking challenge! Twelve teams competed head to head, making one of two recipes (Moo Shu Chicken or Jerk Turkey Burgers), an original side dish, and a dessert. Five judges tasted all the offerings and filled out scorecards on each. We even had a cake in the shape of the Arie Crown Logo! The Kitchen Magicians (Reb C, Mr. Glazer and Rabbi Goykhman) won the chicken competition and Beat Bobby Flay (Rabbi Kirshner and Rabbi A. Schwartz, with Mrs. Kirshner on cake duty) won the burger competition. The winner of the cake decorating contest was Made to Order (Mrs. Eimerman, Mrs. Matanky, Mrs. Holzman and Mrs. Grinblatt) A great time was had by all who cooked and attended, though our judges were pretty stuffed by the end of the night!

  • Parashat Shelach Lecha the Secret of Challah & the Feminine Tikun (Rectification)
    בס”ד Nature in the Parasha By Rebbetzin Chana Bracha Siegelbaum Parashat Shelach Lecha The Secret of Challah & the Feminine Tikun (Rectification) The Spiritual Revival of Women’s Mitzvah of Challah This week’s Torah portion includes the mitzvah of separating challah. This same parasha opens with a recount of the negative speech of the spies who were afraid to conquer the Land of Israel, This caused the Jewish people to wander for forty years in the desert rather than proceed directly into the Land of Israel. As the primary rectification for the nation of Israel’s abandonment of their Land, Hashem grants us the mitzvah of taking challah. It is so beautiful that in the Torah whenever we miss the mark, Hashem gives us an opportunity to amend through additional mitzvot. Therefore, this week’s parasha offers three new mitzvot to rectify the spies’ lack of faith. Parashat Shelach lecha concludes with the mitzvah of wine libation, challah offering and tzitzit all in the Book of Bamidbar, chapter 15. The wine libation is an atonement for the nation as a whole since Israel is compared to the grapevine (Hoshea 9:10). Whereas the mitzvah of tzitzit is the primary rectification for the men’s role in abandoning the Land of Israel, challah is one of the three mitzvot dedicated for women to rectify not only the sin of the spies but even eating from the Tree of Knowledge by the very first woman in the Garden of Eden. Since we live in the times of redemption, we are already in the process of rectifying the sins of the Garden.

  • Tanya Sources.Pdf
    The Way to the Tree of Life Jewish practice entails fulfilling many laws. Our diet is limited, our days to work are defined, and every aspect of life has governing directives. Is observance of all the laws easy? Is a perfectly righteous life close to our heart and near to our limbs? A righteous life seems to be an impossible goal! However, in the Torah, our great teacher Moshe, Moses, declared that perfect fulfillment of all religious law is very near and easy for each of us. Every word of the Torah rings true in every generation. Lesson one explores how the Tanya resolved these questions. It will shine a light on the infinite strength that is latent in each Jewish soul. When that unending holy desire emerges, observance becomes easy. Lesson One: The Infinite Strength of the Jewish Soul The title page of the Tanya states: A Collection of Teachings ספר PART ONE לקוטי אמרים חלק ראשון Titled הנקרא בשם The Book of the Beinonim ספר של בינונים Compiled from sacred books and Heavenly מלוקט מפי ספרים ומפי סופרים קדושי עליון נ״ע teachers, whose souls are in paradise; based מיוסד על פסוק כי קרוב אליך הדבר מאד בפיך ובלבבך לעשותו upon the verse, “For this matter is very near to לבאר היטב איך הוא קרוב מאד בדרך ארוכה וקצרה ”;you, it is in your mouth and heart to fulfill it בעזה״י and explaining clearly how, in both a long and short way, it is exceedingly near, with the aid of the Holy One, blessed be He. "1 of "393 The Way to the Tree of Life From the outset of his work therefore Rav Shneur Zalman made plain that the Tanya is a guide for those he called “beinonim.” Beinonim, derived from the Hebrew bein, which means “between,” are individuals who are in the middle, neither paragons of virtue, tzadikim, nor sinners, rishoim.

We wish you Shabbat Shalom Sedra in a Nutshell by Rebbetzin Eva Chapper Hashem says to Moses, “They shall make for Me a Sanctuary (Mishkan), and I shall dwell amidst them.” The Jewish people are called upon to contribute thirteen materials: gold, silver and copper; blue, purple and red dyed wool; flax, goat hair, animal skins, wood, olive oil, spices and gems. Moses is given detailed instructions on how to construct this dwelling for Hashem so that it could be readily dismantled, transported and reassembled as the people journeyed in the desert. In the Mishkan’s inner chamber, behind an artistically woven curtain, was the Ark containing the tablets engraved with the Ten Commandments; on the Ark’s cover stood two winged cherubim hammered out of pure gold. In the outer chamber stood the seven-branched menorah, and the table upon which the “showbread” was arranged. The Mishkan’s three walls were fitted together from 48 upright wooden boards, each of which was overlaid with gold and held up by a pair of silver sockets. The roof was formed of three layers of coverings: (a) tapestries of multicoloured wool and linen; (b) a covering made of goat hair; (c) a covering of ram and tachash skins.
