At Beth El Congregation 5779/2019 Passover Reflections Dear Beth El Family, How Jewish Communities Make Each Individual Member Stronger
Passoverat Beth El Congregation 5779/2019 Passover Reflections Dear Beth El family, how Jewish communities make each individual member stronger. Storytelling is fundamental to the Jewish people. Perhaps that is why Passover is such a beloved At the Seder, each Jew is commanded to retell holiday. To tell the Exodus story, the Haggadah the Passover story as if they were personally insists that we must first tell the story of the Jewish enslaved by Pharaoh in Egypt and were freed by people from the beginning. God’s outstretched arm. The act of storytelling becomes a vital tool for Thus, the (re)telling of the Exodus story requires strengthening the Jewish community. Through us to rely on two different types of memories: an oral history of our ancestor’s experiences, communal and individual. we transmit the meaning of their struggle and pass their narrative through the generations. The Jewish collective memory is the history of our Doing so allows modern Jews to maintain people: The Exodus from Egypt, the revelation at memories of events that we have not ourselves Mount Sinai, the settling of the Land of Israel, and experienced. Indeed, the more we see ourselves in more recent history, the Shoah. These shared as if we were there, the greater significance and memories connect us together as Jews. relevance that the story has for us. This is how But we also maintain our individual memories, the Jewish people empower one another, and perhaps of attending various Sedarim with beloved relatives or the taste of our mother’s matzah ball soup. -

Nevertheless, the Torah gives a make-up date for bringing the offering a month later.

Daf Ditty Pesachim 78: Korban Pesach Today (?)
Daf Ditty Pesachim 78: Korban Pesach today (?) Three girls in Israel were detained by the Israeli Police (2018). The girls are activists of the “Return to the Mount” (Chozrim Lahar) movement. Why were they detained? They had posted Arabic signs in the Muslim Quarter calling upon Muslims to leave the Temple Mount area until Friday night, in order to allow Jews to bring the Korban Pesach. This is the fourth time that activists of the movement will come to the Old City on Erev Pesach with goats that they plan to bring as the Korban Pesach. There is also an organization called the Temple Institute that actively is trying to bring back the Korban Pesach. It is, of course, very controversial and the issues lie at the heart of one of the most fascinating halachic debates in the past two centuries. 1 The previous mishnah was concerned with the offering of the paschal lamb when the people who were to slaughter it and/or eat it were in a state of ritual impurity. Our present mishnah is concerned with a paschal lamb which itself becomes ritually impure. Such a lamb may not be eaten. (However, we learned incidentally in our study of 5:3 that the blood that gushed from the lamb's throat at the moment of slaughter was collected in a bowl by an attendant priest and passed down the line so that it could be sprinkled on the altar). Our mishnah states that if the carcass became ritually defiled, even if the internal organs that were to be burned on the altar were intact and usable the animal was an invalid sacrifice, it could not be served at the Seder and the blood should not be sprinkled. -
