Newsletter (Civic Design) MAY 2021 I Iyyar/Sivan 5781 VOLUME 87 NO.9 TBITablet. online Shalom Friends, INSIDE THIS ISSUE Later this month (May 15th), we will begin the fourth Book of the Torah – The Book of Numbers. The Book of Numbers Rabbi Michael Mishkin opens with Moses taking a census of the Israelites. Why did Rita Shumsky God want Moses to do this? According to a midrash (a rab- B’nai Mitzvot binic story), God commanded that Moses do this counting, because God loved each and every Israelite. The midrash Mark Schneider The Bronx says, to understand this, think of a king who had a treasure chest full of jewels. Religious School Siddur Every once in a while, the king would open the chest, and count each jewel. Be- Ceremony cause the king considered each jewel beautiful in its own right, this activity gave Preschool Happenings the king great pleasure. (Numbers Rabbah 4:2) So it is with God and the Jewish Simchas and Condolences People (and expanding the midrash a little—so it is with God and all people.) This image of each person being a jewel, beautifully captures the spirit of TBI. Thankfully, TBI is full of members who are “jewels,” each in their own right. How- ever, some of our jewels are more well-known than others. One of our jewels, who most of us know, is David Volpe. David is our Ritual Chair (VP of the Ritual Committee). It’s a position he has held for more than a decade. And it’s a posi- tion that has enabled David to do thousands of acts of kindness for members and guests of our community. If you were to construct the ideal Ritual Chair, you would want a person who has a strong connection to their Jewish identity, a great affection for the services, a deep appreciation for role of the synagogue, and a great love for the members of the congregation. That is David Volpe in a nutshell. Although when talking about David, I need to add, that he is a talented chef, who enjoys making delicious to this month’s Shabbat dinners for the community. David learned how to be an exceptional Rit- ual Chair from his predecessor, Harvey Aiges, of blessed memory. Harvey had a B’nai Mitzvot kind soul, and he possessed these same attributes as David. In this way, through David’s many, many years of dedicated service to TBI, he has honored Harvey’s Amanda Mellow memory in a meaningful and lasting way. It’s another gift, among the many, that David has given to the congregation. ...Continued page 4 May 8th Joshua Engel May 15th DID YOU KNOW... Leo Schwartz Rita lived and grew up in Atlantic City?
