A Dvar Torah by Rabbi Dovid Schulman - Fourth Grade Rebbe a Jewish Slave YOSS NEWS 26 Shvat 5779 . Mishpatim . February 1, 2019 . Candle Lighting 4:54 PM A Dvar Torah by Rabbi Dovid Schulman - Fourth Grade Rebbe a Jewish slave. Included in עֶבֶד עִבְרִ י discusses the laws of an פרשת משפטים The beginning of these halachos are the laws, if a Jewish slave wants to remain a slave by his master. The laws are quite interesting. A master takes his slave to Bais Din, pierces his ear with an awl, etc. What’s the true meaning behind these halachos. One answer is given by Rabbeinu Bachya. He explains, that the way of the world is that people do not appreciate the title of being a slave. It’s a derogatory term. Most people don’t say, “when I grow up, I want to become a slave.” Because of his life, he usually becomes depressed. The fact that he wants to remain a slave by his master is a new thing. He wants to remain status quo. Be- fore he was enslaved, he was a poor thief. The past six years of slavery, he’s been treated very well by his master. and the master himself has to pierce his ear. Why? The ear that בית דין Therefore the slave’s master has to bring him to B’nai Yisrael are to be servants to me), and he went and became a slave to a) הַר סִינַי, “כִּי לִי בְנֵי יִשְׂרָ אֵל עֲבָדִים” heard at slave. He’s going against Hashem because a Jew is really supposed to be a slave of Hashem and not a slave of another slave (of Hashem). and not עֶבֶד עִבְרִ י Rabbeinu Bachya continues with the following question: Why does the posuk refer to the slave as an is a very chushuv name, given to the Jewish people when we received the יִשְׂרָ אֶל The answer is that ?עֶבֶד יִשְׂרָ אֶל an is the name that the Jews had when they were still slaves in Mitzrayim. Therefore he’s called an עִבְרִ י .הַר סִינַי Torah at who only accepts Hashem as his master, and not יִשְׂרָ אֶל because he is refusing to act like a עֶבֶד יִשְׂרָ אֶל and not עֶבֶד עִבְרִ י to the הַר סִ ינַי somebody else. It’s also another reason why his ear is pierced, because he refused to listen at commandment of “Don’t steal,” for the reason he became a slave in the first place was because he stole. Why do we pierce his ear by a door-post and not just hold him and pierce his ear? The reason the Jews merited to be freed from the slavery of Mitzrayim was because they listened to Hashem by placing blood on the door-post. This was is going against that whole concept. Therefore, we pierce his ear specifically עֶבֶד עִבְרִ י our way of leaving slavery. This on the door-post. is gematria 400.

The second perek deals with cases of galus and the boys are really interested in judging the myriad of cases in the Gemara to see if their judgments are correct or not. We have begun a new incentive of prizes called 7J Executive Club. This involves good participation and involvement in learning We are looking forward to 7-11 trips and prizes coming up. Yeshiva Bein Hazmanim - Speak to any of the eighty three kids for- tunate enough to have participated in this year's Yeshiva Bein Hazmanim and they'll tell you that this year's program was the best (but that is what's said every year! ) Last Tuesday and Wednesday talmidim entered the building like on any other morning, to begin their day with davening and learning. Howev- er, by 10:15 the day began to resemble anything but ordinary. Each day featured exciting activities. On Tuesday, an hour and a half of bowl- ing was followed by a pizza lunch and a visit to Bounce Trampoline Sports in Syosset where the boys jumped and bounced their afternoon away. Wednes- day featured a snow tubing trip to Mountain Creek where the kids enjoyed two and a half hours of snow tubing. It's already February and although we've hardly seen an inch of snow here in New York, Mountain Creek boasted over a foot and a half of the white stuff with perfect conditions for exhilarating snow tube fun. YBH is a favorite with our students and parents alike because it combines Torah learning with exhilarating fun. Only twelve months left to YBH 2020 ! Our First Chumash - What a marvelous Chumash presentation we had on Sunday, January 6! Parents and grand- parents from Rabbi Gewirtz’s first grade, were treated to a grand performance by the class which included songs from davening and zemiros. Each boy was presented with a beautiful new Chumash by Rabbi Kamenetzky and Rabbi Robin- son and the program concluded with the fathers joining their sons in dancing. Of course, the celebration was not just about getting a Chumash, it was about starting to learn Chumash. I am proud to report that in the two weeks of school after the presentation and before our vaca- tion, we were off and running and learning in the new Chumashim. In the first five pesukim, we already learned 4 prefixes!! (Beis=in, Vav=and, Hay=the Lamed=to). In other news, we have recently completed our kesiva book and are now writing all the letters in Kesiva. This week we started a beautiful new workbook on Yedios Klaliyos, general knowledge in Yiddishkeit. As we grow in our learning skills, we are really looking forward to the second half of the school year and all the “big boy learning” that we will be doing! News From the Hollander ECC Each year during Chodesh Shvat all of our classes review the lessons related to Hash- kamas Haboker. Through charts and washing stations in the classroom, the children remind each other to wash negel vasser in the morning, as well as focus on the cor- rect way to wash. This year we have added another dimension to our Hashkamas Haboker Curriculum. The boys have been learning the importance and correct way to take care of their yarmulkas and tzitzis. All of the Kindergarten children will be bringing home a Negel Vasser cup that they have designed, and the middos mission of this week is “I start my day like a mentsch”. *This program was created Liulei Nishmas Meir Yechezkel ben Yosef Avraham Mordechai, a”h Looking Ahead - Mr. Richter’s fifth graders are back from break and back in business. The business of learning that is. Looking ahead we are going to meet the challenges of multiplying decimals in math class. In English Language Arts, we are gathering evidence to write our next essay on The Island of the Blue Dolphins. The boys loved the novel and all of the activities we completed in class. On the Social Studies front, we are learning all about life in the thirteen colonies and how the colonists lived and worked on a daily basis before the Revolutionary War. To nicely tie into what we are learning, the boys will venture on an amazing field trip to the Rock Hall Museum. Here they will experience for themselves what life was like on a farmhouse in the Colonial Era. As the spring gets closer, the boys will also be preparing for their Career Fair, where they will choose a profession to study and then give a presentation to their teachers and peers. I hope eve- ryone stays warm for the next month or so of winter, and that we keep in mind that the beautiful spring days will surely come. Ready For Round Two! - Here we are, back from winter vacation, hopefully well rested and ready to go. In Mrs. Drucker’s fourth grade class we have accomplished so much in the first half of the year. We completed our study of multiplication and reinforced our skills with games and puz- zles. Now we are starting our unit on division. In social studies, we celebrated our unit on Native Americans by creating travel brochures. Now we are starting our unit on explorers and will learn about how Europeans settled New York State. In science we are exploring energy and forces. We have enjoyed many STEAM projects to support what we have learned so far. We have created mazes, ramps and even a Newton’s Cradle. In my ELA group we have enjoyed many stories and learned many skills and strategies. We completed a unit study in poetry and have become prolific writers. Now we are tack- ling our first novel using the strategies and skills of a Book Club. We are reading The Landry News and upon comple- tion, aspire to publish a fourth grade newspaper. All in all we are excited to continue learning as we begin round two of our school year! Back From Vacation! - The boys came back from winter vacation refreshed and ready to learn.

They were made against the Bnei Yisrael throughout the ordeal they went through in trapped and afraid and Hashem saves them by splitting the sea so they could Egypt. However, the Kateigur - prosecuting attorney - had no voice in Egypt pass. The Midrash, a passage in the Zohar in Terumah (170b), relates a because the Bnei Yisrael were never divided in Egypt. They showed conversation that the Malachim have with Hashem as the Bnei Yisrael are tremendous achdus and unity throughout the slavery they went through. going through the Yam Suf with the Egyptians giving chase. However, Rashi explains at the splitting of the sea the Bnei Yisrael were The Malachim ask Hashem, “Why are You saving the Bnei Yisrael and divided; whilst some turned to Hashem in prayer, others wanted to go back performing miracles for them but You are destroying the Egyptians (by to Egypt and some wanted to fight the Egyptians.

  • Commentary on Parashat Mishpatim – Central Synagogue’S Mishkan Service
    Commentary on Parashat Mishpatim – Central Synagogue’s Mishkan Service 1. There are 53 commandments in this week’s portion. The JPS Torah Commentary on Exodus1 explains: the concept of the Torah being “The Book of the Covenant” or Sefer HaBerit comes from verses 4 and 7 in chapter 24 of the portion. The Book of the Covenant falls into four distinct parts: i. 21:2 – 22:16 , various legal topics that relate to civil and criminal matters; ii. 22:17 – 23:19, a wide variety of discrete topics, with special emphasis on humanitarian considerations; iii. 23:20-33, an appendix that affirms the divine promises to Israel and warns against the dangers of assimilation to paganism; and iv. Chapter 24 which contains a ratification of the document and Moses receiving the Decalogue incised in stone. 2. Rashi on the opening words of the portion: “And these are the ordinances”: Wherever it says, “these” [in the Torah,] it [this word, these, is used to] separate from what has been stated previously. [Where it says,] “And these,” [it means that] it is adding to what has been previously stated (Tanchuma Mishpatim 3). [Thus] just as what has been previously stated [namely the Ten Commandments,] were from Sinai, these too were from Sinai. All of the 613 commandments are contained within the 10 Commandments. Rav Saadia Gaon (888-942) organized all 613 under the categories of the 10 Commandments. 3. A similar idea is found in Numbers Rabbah edited in the 12th century. This midrash states that there are 620 letters in the Ten Commandments; 613 letters refer to the 613 commandments and the other 7 refer to the seven days of creation.

  • Shabbat Mishpatim 5779 – 2/2/19 Rabbi Alex Freedman the Late
    Mitzvah Means Jewish Responsibility Shabbat Mishpatim 5779 – 2/2/19 Rabbi Alex Freedman The late President Calvin Coolidge was known to be a man of few words. One Sunday he attended church without his wife. When he returned home she asked, "How was church today?" The president answered, "Good." "What was the sermon about?" “Sin." Mrs. Coolidge pressed for more details. "What did the preacher say about it?" "He was against it." And now, the Jewish version. Mr. Schwartz goes to shul on Shabbat and falls asleep two sentences into the rabbi’s sermon (Hypothetically, of course!). When he returns home, Mrs. Schwartz asked, “How was shul today?" "Good." "What was the sermon about?" "Uh, Mitzvahs." “What did the rabbi say about it?" "He’s in favor of them." If you fall asleep now, you can tell your spouse that. I am in favor of Mitzvot. And that is the subject of my sermon. But today I want to take a deep dive into the idea of Mitzvah because while it’s clearly a major component of Jewish living, the definition itself is cloudy. Finish this thought: Mitzvah in English means... If you said “commandment,” you’re half right. And if you said “good deed,” you’re half right too. The word itself means both. We’re familiar with the commandments piece: honor your parents, celebrate Shabbat and holidays, don’t steal, keep Kosher, and many, many more. It’s a long list, 613 in all, but the Mitzvahs-as-commandments are discrete and transparent. There’s a set list.

  • Vision and Details (Mishpatim 5781)
    Rabbi Sacks zt”l had prepared a full year of Covenant & Conversation for 5781, based on his book Lessons in Leadership. Te Office of Rabbi Sacks will continue to distribute these weekly essays, so that people all around the world can keep on learning and fnding inspiration in his Torah. Vision and Details Mishpatim 5781 Our parsha takes us through a bewildering transition. Up until now, the book of Shemot has carried us along with the sweep and drama of the narrative: the Israelites’ enslavement, their hope for freedom, the plagues, Pharaoh’s obstinacy, their escape into the desert, the crossing of the Red Sea, the journey to Mount Sinai and the great covenant with God. Suddenly, we now fnd ourselves faced with a different kind of literature altogether: a law code covering a bewildering variety of topics, from responsibility for damages to protection of property, to laws of justice, to Shabbat and the festivals. Why here? Why not continue the story, leading up to the next great drama, the sin of the Golden Calf? Why interrupt the fow? And what does this have to do with leadership? Te answer is this: great leaders, be they CEOs or simply parents, have the ability to connect a large vision with highly specifc details. Without the vision, the details are merely tiresome. Tere is a well-known story of three workers who are employed cuting blocks of stone. When asked what they are doing, one says, “Cuting stone,” the second says, “Earning a living,” the third says, “Building a palace.” Tose who have the larger picture take more pride in their labour, and work harder and beter.

  • Parashat Mishpatim - February 12, 2021 – 30 Shevat, 5781
    Parashat Mishpatim - February 12, 2021 – 30 Shevat, 5781 Dear Temple Beth-El Family and Friends, The term “the Fall” is typically invoked in a religious context to refer to a mishap that transpired early in the Book of Bereishit (Genesis). It might be equally appropriately applied in reference to the emotional experience of transitioning from Parashat Yitro, the Torah portion read last week that contains the luminous description of the Revelation at Sinai, to Parashat Mishpatim, this week’s portion which is made up of a “laundry list” of statutes and ordinances (53 in all) pertaining to various aspects of personal deportment, interpersonal relations, financial and ritual obligations and the adjudication of legal cases. So within a week’s time, the Toraitic narrative takes us from the heights of a direct encounter with the Divine to the disposal of an animal carcass torn by wild beasts. Early Christian thinkers critiqued the Jewish tradition for being excessively legalistic, allowing lofty ideals to become lost – if not extinguished – in an overlay of prosaic detail. But Judaism’s response to this, illustrated in the verses of Parashat Mishpatim and their elaboration in rabbinic law, is that the devil – or perhaps better, God – is found in the (legal) details. Values can be lived out only when they are translated into actions, and for this to happen, for our elevated goals to be “operationalized” their enactment spell out in exacting details that force us to confront – and define for ourselves – the path to sanctity in a world that seldom presents us with simple choices between “right” and “wrong”.

  • Three Types of Commandments
    Sat 2 Feb 2019 / 27 Shevat 5779 B”H Dr Maurice M. Mizrahi Congregation Adat Reyim Torah discussion on Mishpatim Three Types of Commandments Introduction This week’s Torah portion is Mishpatim, meaning “Laws”. The Israelites have just heard the Ten Commandments, and now they learn the details. The parasha has no less than 53 commandments. It begins with: When you acquire a Hebrew slave, he shall serve you for six years; but in the seventh year he shall go free, without paying anything. [Ex. 21:2] And the next four verses give more details on how the slave is to be treated. That’s odd… Why begin with a validation of slavery, albeit with restrictions, when the Israelites themselves have just been rescued from slavery? We expected the Torah to say: “You shall not enslave another person, because you yourselves were slaves in the Land of Egypt.” But it doesn’t. Why not? God figured that Jews would not have accepted Torah if some allowances were not made for existing practices. Three types of commandments There are three types of injunctions in the Torah: 1. You must not do this 2. You may do this, within limits 3. You must do this Over the centuries, the rabbis treated them differently. 1. You must not do this Negative commandments were never qualified. They were the limits of behavior. The rabbis could not find a logical basis for allowing that which is forbidden, except to save a life, and even then with exceptions: 1 -Pikuach nefesh: You may violate any commandment to save a life, except those against idolatry, sexual immorality and murder.

  • Parshat Hashavua Yeshivat Har Etzion PARASHAT BEHAR "Two
    Parshat HaShavua Yeshivat Har Etzion PARASHAT BEHAR "Two Hebrew Servants" By Rav Elchanan Samet A. Two Different Parshiyot Parashat Behar features a brief section dealing with the laws of "eved ivri," the Jewish indentured servant (Vayikra 25:39-43). Although this halakhic concept is already familiar to us from Parashat Mishpatim (Shemot 21:2-6), the two discussions, as we will see, have virtually nothing in common beyond their shared interest in a Jew who becomes a servant to another Jew. The issue of "eved ivri" arises a third time, in Parashat Re'eh. That section parallels the corresponding discussion in Mishpatim, both in terms of literary style and content. Its sole addition to the presentation in Mishpatim involves the mitzva of "ha'anaka," the owner's responsibility to provide his servant with basic support immediately upon his attainment of freedom, so as to help him regain his financial independence. Indeed, the section in Re'eh appears amidst other mitzvot requiring one to assist others beyond the normally expected standard. For example, one must supply all the needs of the poor, lend money even just prior to the Sabbatical year when debts are annulled, etc. Thus, we may, for all intents and purposes, equate the section in Re'eh with the corresponding discussion in Mishpatim, the former coming merely to add a dimension "beyond the call of duty" to the requirements of freeing a servant. Now, let us delineate the differences between the discussion of "eved ivri" as presented in Mishpatim/Re'eh and that in our parasha: 1. Parashat Mishpatim requires the servant's release after seven years of servitude, allowing for an extension until the jubilee year only with the servant's consent, in which case his ear is pierced, symbolizing his indentured status.

Objective—Understand the literary structure of the book of Devarim. Note: Chapters and verses are ac- cording to the New King James Version. Last week, we learned that the book of Devarim was a collection offour speeches Moses gave to Am Yisrael (the people of Israel) during the last five weeks of his life. The basic outline of the book goes like this: Scripture Reference Topic Devarim 1-4 Introductory Speech Devarim 5-26 Main Speech Devarim 27-28 Tochacha (Admonition) Devarim 29-30 Teshuvah (Repentance) http://www.restorationoftorah.org http://restorationoftorah.org/WeeklyParsha/MBMVaetchannan.htm 1 This week we will expand on what we learned last week. The first speech is found in Devarim 1:6- 4:40. In Parashat (the weekly readings from the Torah) Devarim, we stopped in the middle of the speech, Devarim 3:22. This week’s study will fin- ish off the first speech and begin a small portion of the second speech, which will go up to Devarim 26! Because it is so long, the second speech is called the main speech.
