In this parsha, what location shares a name with a close relative of the matriarch Rivka? 2. Which three metals are alluded to in this parsha? 3. In what two contexts is the number 11 mentioned? 4. In what two contexts is the number 1,000 mentioned? 5. In this parsha, which foreign nation is referred to 11 times? Which foreign land is mentioned 12 times? 6. In this parsha, which nation is compared to an insect? Where else in the Torah are a group of people compared to insects? 7. Which person is mentioned in this parsha, for the first time since parshat Vayera? Who is mentioned for the first time since parshat Vayishlach? 8. Where is snow alluded to in this parsha? 9. What four places in this parsha does someone say, "Do not fear"? 10. What three places in the book of Genesis does Hashem tell someone, "Do not fear"? 11. Which seven names of the 24 books of the scriptures are found in this parsha? Answers 1) One of the locations listed in Deut. 1:1 is Lavan, which is also the name of Rivka's brother (Genesis 24:29). 2) One of the locations mentioned in Deut. 1:1 is "Di Zahav," which means "gold" in Hebrew. The bed of Og is described as having been fashioned out of iron (Deut. 3:11). The Jews offer to buy food and water from surrounding nations with "kesef" - "silver" (Deut. 6:28). 3) The Jews are an 11-day journey from Chorev (Deut. 1:2). Moshe gives a speech which occurs in the 11th month of the year (Deut. 1:3). 4) Moshe blesses the Jews that Hashem should increase them "one thousand fold" (Deut. 1:11). Moshe describes how he needs assistance to lead the Jews, and appoints various judges, including "leaders of thousands" (Deut. 1:15). 5) The nation of Emori appears 11 times. The country of Bashan is mentioned 12 times. 6) The people of Emor are compared to bees, in the manner they attacked the Jews who attempted to enter the land of Canaan following the incident of the spies (Deut. 1:44). In parshat Shlach, the spies compare themselves to grasshoppers, in relation to the giants who lived in Canaan (Numbers 13:33). 7) Lot appears for the first time since parshat Vayera (Deut. 2:9). Esav is referenced multiple times in this parsha, for the first time since parshat Vayishlach (Deut. 2:4). 8) The verse states that the Emorites called Mount Chermon by the name "shenir" (Deut. 3:9). Rashi states that shenir means "snow" in Germanic and Canaanite languages. Interestingly, Mount Chermon today is covered with snow at its high elevation areas. 9) 1) Just prior to the sending of the spies, Moshe tells the Jews not to fear taking possession of the land of Israel (Deut. 1:21). 2) Hashem tells Moshe not to fear fighting Og, the king of Bashan (Deut. 3:2). 3) Moshe commands Yehoshua not to fear the kings in Canaan (Deut. 3:22). 4) When Moshe appoints judges, he tells them not to fear anyone (Deut. 1:16). 10) 1) In parshat Lech Lecha, Hashem tells Avraham not to fear since He will protect him and bless him (Genesis 15:1). 2) In parshat Toldot, Hashem encourages Yitzchak with the words, "Do not fear," after Yitzchak has several disputes with the Pelishtim over the wells (Genesis. 26:24). 3) In parshat Vayigash, Hashem assures Yaakov on his way down to Egypt not to fear leaving Canaan (Genesis 46:3). 11) Devarim (Deut. 1:1), Numbers (Deut. 1:1), Echa (Deut. 1:12), Yehoshua (Deut. 1:38), Vayikra (Deut. 3:14), and Melachim (Deut. 3:21). Shneim Asar (Tre Asar) (Deut. 1:23, see Baba Batra 14b). בס''ד Community Announcements (It is YOUR Community, make the most of it!)

    LEON SAKKAL THE ARCHITECT OF THE SYRIAN COMMUNITY Marking 10 Years since the Passing of our Leader Hacham Baruch Ben Haim, zt”l On 24 Iyar, 5765 (June 2, 2005), our community mourned the loss of our revered leader and teacher, Hacham Baruch Ben Haim, zt”l. For 56 years, Hacham Baruch built, nurtured, and steered the Syrian community of Greater New York towards the prominent status it holds today. Now, 10 years later, we take a step back to appreciate the rabbi’s extraordinary life and accomplishments, and the enduring imprint which he has left upon us and all of Sephardic Jewry.

OHEL YAACOB CONGREGATION, Defendant. ____________________________________ Decided: January 21, 2003 Lawrence H. Shapiro for plaintiff (Ansell, Zaro, Grimm & Aaron, attorneys). Mark A. Steinberg for defendant (Mark A. Steinberg, attorney). MENYUK, J.T.C. Plaintiff City of Long Branch appeals a judgment of the Monmouth County Board of Taxation applicable to tax year 2001, which exempts property used to house visiting rabbis and other clergy and also to store books and furniture. Defendant Ohel Yaacob Congregation (the “Congregation”) claims that the property is entitled to exemption pursuant to N.J.S.A. 54:4-3.6 because it is a parsonage or, alternatively, because it is a building actually used in the work of an association or corporation organized exclusively for religious purposes. file:///C|/Users/Peter/Desktop/Opinions/02643-01.opn.html[4/20/2013 11:51:21 AM] 02643-01.opn.html The Congregation is a nonprofit religious corporation formed in 1982 or 1983. It is an Orthodox Jewish congregation and has a synagogue located in Deal, New Jersey. The subject property is in Long Branch, but is adjacent to the synagogue in Deal. It consists of a two-story * masonry and concrete building dating from about 1930, and, at some time prior to its acquisition by the Congregation in June 1995, the property was apparently used as a summer hotel. It has three residential living units, one on the first floor and two on the second.

  • Responses-Of-Rabbinic-Panel.Pdf
    To the esteemed members of the Orthodox Union’s executive committee and board of directors, in response to your questions: 1) Is it halakhically acceptable for a synagogue to employ a woman in a clergy function? 2) What is the broadest spectrum of professional roles within a synagogue that may be performed by a woman?1 These inquires must be answered in a way that goes beyond a simple yes or no, permitted or prohibited. The issue of female clergy is complex, and touches upon not only the dictates of halakhah, but also upon fundamental issues in our hashkafat olam. Indeed, the questions relate to the philosophy of the halakhic process itself. Furthermore, we recognize that this issue is emotionally charged; some perceive limitations on women’s roles and titles as barriers to full involvement in the Orthodox community, while others view the lifting of traditional gender distinctions in ritual as representing a rejection of the mesorah. This tension pits egalitarianism, a central value of modernity, against a time-honored tradition that clearly speaks of equally valued, yet different, roles for men and women. In contemporary discourse, rabbinic discussion of these issues often appear to focus primarily on what functions performed by men are inappropriate for women. By contrast, our intention is to define halakhic parameters with the goal of clarifying practical roles that women can and, depending on the particular kehillah, indeed should, play in our community institutions. The following represents our collective opinion. For the reasons noted above, we will begin with an outline of halakhic methodology. Halakhic Methodology There are three primary factors that may be considered by a halakhic decisor when developing a ruling: legal sources, precedent, and a relevant halakhic ethos.
