That doesn't include the dozen or so keys that unlock you have There is a saying of the Previous Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi no idea what, sitting in a kitchen drawer or in a container in the Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, quoted in the name of his father, workshop or somewhere else. the Rebbe Rashab: What do we need so many keys for, anyway?

SITTING ON A VOLCANO "„Peace, peace!' When there is no peace. „Peace, peace!‟ When there is no peace.” (Jer. 6:14; 8:11). “They have seduced My people, saying, "Peace!' when there is no peace. “The prophets... prophesy... and see visions of peace when there is no peace; therefore you shall no longer envision futility nor practice divination; for I will deliver My people out of your hand, and you shall know that I am the LORD.'' (Ezek 13:10, 16, 23). Peace in Bosnia; Peace in Chechnya; Peace in Sri Lanka; Peace in Northern Ireland; Peace in Cambodia; Peace in Rwanda; Peace everywhere. Almost all of a sudden, the world is awash with peace. Even in the Middle East, an area that has not known peace for nearly 50 years, since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, peace has broken out with the signing of the peace accord between the Palestinians and the Israelis. What if people continue to die in most of these places long after they have been declared ―peaceful‖, if politicians tell us that they are at peace now what are we supposed to do but to believe it? The families that keep loosing their sons in this ―peace‖ might wish that they were at war. After the accord, the Palestinian authorities received arms to enforce peace in their areas. And what happened this year when Israel opened a tunnel near the Al-Aqsa Mosque? Those guns were turned on the Israeli soldiers themselves. When asked to comment about it, Shimon Perez, the architect of that peace, said: ―Peace is not poetry! Peace is not a song!‖ (Lateline, ABC TV, Oct. -

The Evolution of the Melbourne Beth Din Chaim Cowen Abstract This
Cowen, C. “The Evolution of the Melbourne Beth Din”, Australian Journal of Jewish Studies XXXIII (2020): 193-216 The Evolution of the Melbourne Beth Din Chaim Cowen Abstract This article commences with a historical overview of the Melbourne Beth Din (MBD), Australia’s longest standing Rabbinical court. Of particular focus is the cause of its inception, its relationship with Melbourne’s various Hebrew Congregations, the key personalities who led and participated in its operations, and the communal context within which it operated. The second part of the article explores elements within the Melbourne Jewish community who, dissatisfied with the MBD, challenged its centrality within the community by forming alternate institutions. In addition, the shift over time in its relationship with its founder, the Chief Rabbinate of the British Empire, is analysed. Last, while the MBD primarily concerned itself with matters of personal status and ritual matters, its dealings in civil arbitration are discussed, which pave the way towards a greater understanding of the context for recent rulings in the Victorian and New South Wales Supreme Courts in relation to civil arbitration awards issued by ad hoc Batei Din. Introduction Batei Din (Jewish religious courts, sing. Beth Din) in Melbourne and Sydney have in recent times come to the attention of the public, in the context of their awards and procedure in civil arbitration being challenged in the Australian courts. In addressing the issues which have presented themselves in these cases, it is important to “see where the feet grow from”1 in order to gain a more holistic understanding of the issues which have presented themselves of late. -

Torah Musings Digests
Torah Musings Digests July through October, 2014 as published on www.TorahMusings.com Unedited Introduction Started as the Hirhurim blog in 2004, Torah Musings relaunched in August 2013 as an online periodical focusing on multiple areas of interest, including: Textual Studies – halakhah (Jewish law),hashkafah (Jewish thought), history and parshanut (biblical commentary) that is clear, interesting, valuable to experienced students but understandable to those with limited Jewish education; News Stories and Commentary – thoughtful responses based on Jewish texts and traditions to issues of the day; Dialogue – differing views within the Orthodox camp, discussing with post and counter-post or in the responses. In July 2014, the website began sending weekly digests in PDF format. This booklet contains a collection of these weekly digests from July through October 2014, unrevised and in the same format originally sent. Currently, these PDF files flow automatically and sometimes misinterpret formatting commands. Therefore, there are occasional stray sentences that should be ignored. Please note that authorship of each essay is clear on the website but not always in the weekly digest. Unless otherwise indicated, assume that I wrote an essay. Many people contributed to this project. The editorial committee for the first year consisted of R. Micha Berger, R. Basil Herring and R. Moshe Schapiro, the last two continuing into the second year. These three scholars devoted many hours to improving and maintaining the website’s standards. I thank them for their hard work. During the period of this collection, Efraim Vaynman and David Roth served as editorial interns. I thank them both for their hard work. -
