Our conditions today are quite troubling as the Jewish Have a great Shabbos and a wonderful week. world is confronted with a barrage of anti-Semitic tropes and incidents that we have not experienced globally since the Holocaust. Israel, with all its successes and contributions to society in so many areas including technology, health, science and Rabbi Sholom Lipskar economic advancement, continues to be vilified by the United Nations and so many proponents of the BDS movement, including many young college-age Jews. It seems like history repeats itself consistently, giving us challenges that are unique to any people in the world. The why has many responses. Primarily, it is because we are so outstanding, and the one standing at the top of the mountain becomes the easiest target for all those who are envious and filled with a fundamental hate that transcends reason. But what gives us the capacity and the power to overcome these challenges and sustain our continued eternal upward trajectory, never succumbing to negative forces and hurdles? In this week’s Torah portion, we read about our father Jacob whose life is filled with difficulties and challenges, beginning from his birth when his brother wrestles and struggles with him in the womb, and then having to retain his rightful birthright having fairly purchased it from his brother Eisav, being pursued with murderous 3 CELEBRATING SHABBOS WITH OUR YOUTH EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR AN “OVER THE TOP” SHABBOS EXPERIENCE Eruv Information SHABBOS SCHEDULE We would like to emphasize that every Erev Shabbos, individuals should call the Eruv Hotline Candle lighting 5:12 p.m. to make sure that the Eruv is operational.

Alternative selections are offered each shabbat: a shorter reading (around twenty verses) and a longer one (around thirty verses). The readings are a guide and congregations may choose to read more or less from within that part of the parashah. On certain special shabbatot, a special second (or exceptionally, third) scroll reading is read in addition to the week’s portion. Haftarah readings are chosen to parallel key elements in the section of the Torah being read and therefore vary from one year in the triennial cycle to the next. Some of the suggested haftarot are from taken from k’tuvim (Writings) rather than n’vi’ivm (Prophets). When this is the case the appropriate, adapted blessings can be found on page 245 of the MRJ siddur, Seder Ha-t’fillot. This calendar follows the Biblical definition of the length of festivals.

  • The Sacred Sulam Bridgingheaven and Earth
    Parshat Vayetzei No 1651: 10 KIslev 5777 (10 December 2016) CLICK HERE TO DONATE TO THE RZA The Sacre d Sullam BriidgiingHe ave n and Earth Rabbii Jonathan Morgenstern Rabbii Of Young Israell of Scarsdalle, Scarsdalle, NY Earlyon in my own religious development, I gave a lot of thought to the idea of theideal religious life. As we see in the vision of Jacob's Ladder at thebeginning of Parashat VaYeitzi, is it a life devoted solely to Heaven, or is therea way to bridgeHeaven and Earth? There is no doubt that in contemplating Avodat Hashem,how best to serve God, the Chareidi “Torah only” approach has greatallure. To spend all day studying God’s word, through Torah learning,connecting to God, through Tefillah, and communing with God on Shabbat andHolidays, through a sweet mix of Torah, Tefillah and Zemirot can be intoxicating. This lifestyle had great appeal to me at an important crossroads in mylife. But as I continued to contemplate my path forward, I thought a lotabout my past as well. I come from generations and generations ofChassidic Rabbis. My grandfather sat at his father’s Tisch, as the son ofthe Rebbe, in Wengrow. Yet, through the hand of God, which saved my grandfather,sending him to Scotland, then England and, finally, settling in Chicago – wewere no longer Chassidic – we were Modern and Orthodox and that is how I was raised. In some cosmic way, I felt (and continue to feel) that it was God’s will that Iwas raised in the way that I was here and I wasn’t meant to transport myselfback to the way it was in Europe.
