  • FIRST TIME MAKING PESACH a Cheat Sheet for the Rest of Us
    Rabbi Dovid Cohen Administrative Rabbinic Coordinator, cRc FIRST TIME MAKING PESACH A cheat sheet for the rest of us Preparing for Pesach takes effort, but with a bit of planning and focus it is possible to succeed and welcome Yom Tov positively. This article’s goal is not to provide details and instructions, but rather to provide a framework of what must be done and issues to consider, and guidance on how to learn more about those topics. The “Tell Me More” sidebars reference articles in the cRc 2021 Pesach Guide where more information is available on a given topic. This article is written specifically for those who have never made Pesach at home or have not done so for many years, but also may be a good overview for those who have more experience. A) SCHEDULE if we will be home on Pesach, then we must also clean our houses to ensure we do not accidentally eat any chametz on Finding ways to be organized and scheduled goes a long Pesach. We identify all chametz, and either destroy it or put it way towards having a successful preparatory Pesach season. into a closet, cabinet, or room that will be closed for Yom Tov Many find it helpful to work backwards, thinking which jobs and sold to a non-Jew.1 should or must happen on Erev Pesach, which in the days before that, etc. so that they roughly plan when each item Which foods are chametz and must be removed? The will get taken care of. letter of the law is that only items which meet these three requirements must be removed: In this context it is worth noting that many Pesach tasks can be performed well in advance of Yom Tov.

  • About the London Beth Din Published on United Synagogue (
    About the London Beth Din Published on United Synagogue (https://www.theus.org.uk) About the London Beth Din Jewish life in England goes back almost 1000 years. It is believed that the first Jews were brought over from Normandy by William the Conqueror in 1066; there is reference to Jews in Oxford as early as 1075 and the Doomsday Book of 1086 records the Jew Mennasseh owning land in Oxfordshire. Several Baalei Tosafot (commentators) lived in England including R.Yaakov Mi’Orleans, (martyred in London at the coronation of Richard the Lionheart in 1189), R. YomTov Mi’Yoigny, author of Omnam Kein recited on Yom Kippur Maariv (martyred in the York massacre of 1190) and the R'i Mi’Londri, who is mentioned in the Remo in Hilchot Pesach (Siman 473 Sif 76) as recommending that the Hagadah be recited in the vernacular. In 1290, however, Jewish life in England came to abrupt end when the Edict of Expulsion was proclaimed by King Edward I, resulting in the banishment of the entire Jewish population from Britain. The Edict was issued on 18th July, which fell on Fast of Tisha B'Av. England remained "Yudenrein" free of Jews until 1656 when R. Menashe Ben Israel successfully petitioned Oliver Cromwell to allow the readmission of Jews. It is said that Menashe Ben Israel pressed Oliver Cromwell on the grounds that England -Angleterre- was one of the four "angles" of the earth referred to in the prophecies of the ingathering of the exiles, and thus resettlement would hasten the coming of the Messiah! Within only 50 years the offices of the Chief Rabbi and the London Beth Din came into being to provide a central religious authority for Jewish communities in London and throughout the United Kingdom - a role reflected in the London Beth Din's official title "D'Kehila Kedosha London Bet Din Vehamedina" - The Beth Din of London and the Country.

  • Chinuch’= Religious Education of Jewish Children and Youngsters
    ‘Chinuch’= Religious Education of Jewish Children and Youngsters Prof. Rabbi Ahron Daum teaches his youngest daughter Hadassah Yemima to kindle the Chanukah-lights during a family vacation to Israel, 1997 1 ‘Chinuch’ =Jewish Religious Education of Children Including: Preparation Program for ‘Giyur’ of Children: Age 3 – 18 1. ‘Chinuch’ definition: The Festival of Chanukah probably introduced the word “Chinuch” to Judaism. This means to introduce the child to Judaism and to dedicate and inaugurate him in the practice of ‘Mitzvot’. The parents, both mother and father, are the most important persons in the Jewish religious education of the child. The duty of religious education already starts during the period of pregnancy. Then the child is shaped and we should influence this process by not speaking ugly words, shouting, listening to bad music etc, but shaping it in a quiet, peaceful and harmonious atmosphere. After being born, the child already starts its first steps with “kashrut” by being fed with mother’s milk or with kosher baby formula. 2 The Midrash states that when the Jewish people stood at Mount Sinai to receive the Torah, they were asked by G-d for a guarantee that they would indeed observe the Torah in the future. The only security which God was willing to accept, concludes the Midrash, was the children of the Jewish people. This highlights the overwhelming significance of ‘Chinuch’. The duty to train children in ‘Mitzvah’-observance is rabbinic in nature. Parents are rabbinic ally obligated to make sure that their children observe the Torah, so that they will be accustomed to doing this when they reach the age of adulthood.
