  • KAJ NEWSLETTER a Monthly Publication of K’Hal Adath Jeshurun Volume 47 Number 6
    March 1, ‘17 ג' אדר תשע"ז KAJ NEWSLETTER A monthly publication of K’hal Adath Jeshurun Volume 47 Number 6 ,רב זכריה בן רבקה Please continue to be mispallel for Rav Gelley .רפואה שלמה for a YAHRZEIT OF RAV SCHWAB This coming Purim will mark the 22nd Yahrzeit of our late, revered Rav, Rav Shimon Schwab, , who was niftar on 14 Adar I 5755, Purim Kotton. Raised in Frankfurt am Main and a Talmid of the Hirsch Realschule and Frankfurt Yeshiva, Rav Schwab was steeped in the philosophy of Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch. When Rav Schwab then also became a Talmid of the Eastern European Yeshivos (in Telshe and Mir), Rav Schwab had the great Zechus to come into close contact with many of the Gedolim of pre-war Europe, including such luminaries as the Chofetz Chaim, Rav Chaim Ozer Grodzensky, Rav Joseph Leib Bloch, Rav Yeruchom Levovitz, and Rav Elchonon Wasserman. Rav Schwab mentions some of these encounters in his sefer on the parshios hashovu’o, Maayan Beis HaSho’eivo. The popularity of this sefer, as well as Rav Schwab’s shiurim on Tefilo, Iyov, Yeshayo and Ezra- Nechemia, are testament to Rav Schwab’s influence still being strongly felt, both in our community and throughout the Jewish world. יהי זכרו ברוך 67th ANNUAL DINNER The Teaneck Marriott at Glenpointe was the site of our Kehilla and Yeshiva’s 67th Annual Dinner, on Sunday evening, February 19/23 Shevat.

  • Special Education Instruction in the Jewish Ultra Orthodox and Hassidic Communities in Toronto
    SPECIAL EDUCATION INSTRUCTION IN THE JEWISH ULTRA ORTHODOX AND HASSIDIC COMMUNITIES IN TORONTO by Marcus Benayon A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Applied Psychology and Human Development Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Marcus Benayon, 2012 SPECIAL EDUCATION INSTRUCTION IN THE JEWISH ULTRA ORTHODOX AND HASSIDIC COMMUNITIES IN TORONTO Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Marcus Benayon Department of Human Development and Applied Psychology University of Toronto Abstract The purpose of the present study was to examine the state of special education programs in selected Jewish Ultra Orthodox (Haredi) community schools in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), and the attitudes and perceptions about special education of the Melamdim (rabbis/teachers) teaching in those schools. A Special Education course, modeled on OISE’s additional qualification program available to in-service teachers in the public sector, was administrated to 28 Melamdim. Throughout the 12 weeks, course data was collected through observations and dialogues with course participants. The impact of the special education course on classroom practices by those who engaged in the course was also assessed. In addition, a collection of pre-course and post-course data from participants (Melamdim) on attitudes and perceptions in regards to special education through a self-administrated questionnaire, took place. Four additional questionnaires were administered, examining demographic characteristics, general attitudes and behaviors, and well-being. Finally, a pre-selected group of 8 Melalmdim was interviewed as representatives of their home school and the denomination of Judaism they belong to. The results showed significant changes in attitudes of Melamdim toward the inclusion of students with Learning Disabilities (LD in regular classrooms.

  • Model Zionist Conference
    Model Zionist Conference The Model Zionist Conference material is divided into nine sections, one for each delegation: six pro-Zionist delegations and three anti-Zionist delegations. Pro-Zionist: 1) Political Zionism 2) Religious Zionism 3) Cultural Zionism 4) Socialist Zionism 5) Revisionist Zionism 6) Conservative Judaism Anti-Zionist: 1) Reform Judaism 2) Agudat Yisrael 3) Universalistic Socialism (Bund) Because some religious groups did not have formal positions on Zionism, the source sheets make use of the perspectives of leading personalities. Each section contains a brief description of the group’s ideological position, short biographies of main proponents, and where possible, citations. The citations were for the most part originally written in German, Hebrew or Yiddish and this unit relies heavily on the translations by Arthur Hertzberg found in his book, The Zionist Idea: A Historical Analysis and Reader. Others were taken from The Jew in the Modern World: A Documentary History by Paul Mendes-Flohr and Jehuda Reinharz. Downloaded from www.lookstein.org Political Zionism Main proponents: Theodor Herzl, Max Nordau, Leo Pinsker Philosophy: Many European Jews, imbued with the spirit of the enlightenment, strove to become accepted in general society. Many found, however, that in spite of the lofty ideals of emancipation, Jews were unable to gain full acceptance in non-Jewish society because of anti-Semitic barriers. The subtle anti-Semitism of Western Europe and the physical anti-Semitism of Eastern Europe drove many Jews to Zionism. This brand of Zionism was motivated not by the desire to revive Jewish culture, but by the drive to create a haven where Jews, unhampered by anti-Semitism, would be free to live enlightened lives.

  • An Annotated Translation of Pinchas Szerman's Poilishe Khazones In

The essay discusses the many difficulties experienced by cantors in his time, especially the ones who had not be educated. In Szerman’s opinion, the only way to ease the burden – especially the financial burden – was to create a class of educated and professional cantors. The many customs of Polish Jewry that are forgotten today have been annotated as well as basic biographical data on highly influential earlier cantorial masters. Introduction The role of the cantor, or khazan in Hebrew and khazn in Yiddish, is to recite the often very lengthy and rather wordy liturgy. The cantor essentially prays on behalf of the congregation (the Hebrew title Shliach Tzibbur means exactly that), many of whom cannot read Hebrew, and before the printing press even fewer had a prayer books at all. The worshiper needed only to respond “Amen,” to the blessing recited by the cantor to have fulfilled the mitzvah (commandment) of prayer. Unlike a Catholic priest, a cantor or rabbi need not be of some special category: anyone with a decent moral character, Jewishly literate, and had a pleasant voice can serve as khazan.

  • Biographical Sketches David Werner Amram 1866-1939 David Werner Amram
    BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES DAVID WERNER AMRAM 1866-1939 DAVID WERNER AMRAM By Louis E. LEVINTHAL When David Werner Amram died on June 27, 1939,* there passed away an outstanding American lawyer, law professor and jurist, a distinguished scholar, writer and lecturer, a devoted Jewish communal leader, an ardent Zionist advocate, a gentleman of truth and honor, of wit and wisdom. Born on May 16, 1866, in Philadelphia, he was the son of Werner David Amram and Esther Hammerschlag. His father was a fairly well-to-do ship chandler, who later was the owner of the first Philadelphia matzah bakery. His mother was a saintly woman who founded the Jewish Maternity Hospital of Philadelphia and was a prominent figure in the religious and philanthropic life of the com- munity of her day. Amram was educated in the public schools of his native city, received an intensive Hebrew training at home, and prepared for the University of Pennsylvania at a school known as the Rugby Academy. He entered the University in 1883 and, after graduation from the College in 1887, matriculated at the Law School, where he obtained his LL.B. in 1889. He also received an M.A. degree from the University the following year. From 1889, the date of his admission to the Bar, until the end of his life he was keenly interested in the law, its practice as a profession and its study as a science. In 1903 he was appointed by the Judges of the United States District Court as Referee in Bankruptcy, an office he held to the time of bis death.
