IJttps://cllat.wllatsapp.co111/Cn2S111y78fXsowCXgp2WVz From the Gush Rav Moshe Taragin Celebrating 19 Kislev: A Primer of Chasidus for non- Chasidim This weekend marks the 19th of Kislev- known throughout the Jewish world as 'Yat Kislev' – a worldwide celebration of Chasidus. Approximately 220 years ago, the first Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi was imprisoned on trumped-up accusations of treason- fomented by anti-Chasidus forces within the Jewish community. His fifty-three days spent in a harsh Belarus jail under severe interrogation was viewed as a heavenly referendum about the movement of chasidus; perhaps the world was not yet ready for this revolution and perhaps this architect of Chasidus should remain behind bars, unable to disseminate his bold ideology. His liberation on the 19th of Kislev was regarded as a heavenly confirmation that Chasidus would persevere and would renew the sunken Jewish spirit. In the Chasidic world this day is referred to as the "Rosh Hashanah of Chasidus". What about non-Chasidim? For the unexposed the entire world of Chasidus world feels foreign and impenetrable. The optics of Chasidic societies are sometimes very difficult for outsiders to decode; the distinctive dress, dissimilar social codes and general nonconformist leanings, baffle many outsiders who don’t understand the inner logic of these societies and the deep pool of ideas which underwrites Chasidus. For their part, Chasidic societies have become very insular and very unwelcoming of outsiders. Two hundred years of ideological attacks, capped off by the Holocaust, which disproportionately gutted Chasidic communities, have caused these communities to contract inward to preserve besieged traditions. Here is a primer for non-chasidim – a list of five bullet points summarizing how Chasidus inspired my life. Apologies to actual chasidim who may find this list insubstantial or to more rigorous students of Chasidus for whom this list may seem shallow. 1. Finding God Everywhere God is obviously omnipresent and His presence isn’t limited to a particular location. Though he pervades all reality, there are classical channels through which we interact with Him. Traditionally, we communicate and interact with Him through patently religious rituals such as Torah study, performance of commandments, and acts of charity. Chasidus teaches that God can be accessed in mundane day-to day activities as well- which though they don’t feel religious still allow an encounter with an ever-present God. Chasidus helps stretch the vistas of religious feeling and fervor outside the walls the tents of study and the halls of prayer. Otherwise religion can become bifurcated- acutely sensed during moments of ritual but imperceptible during daily routine. 2. Sweet Surrender Our world has become very cognitive and our experience very empirical. Dramatic advances in science have reinforced the value we place on intellect. However intellectual experience doesn’t always move our spirit, and doesn’t always touch our soul. Religious failure often stems from inability to translate intellectual activity into moments of spirit. Chasidus stresses that deeper reservoirs of experience are accessed through non - intellectual means. The doctrine of "hitbatlut" or surrender to God demands that we submit our intellect and human enterprise to the larger presence of God and the larger force of His will. By suspending our own human faculties and drawing directly from God, we attain deeper truths and more substantial results. The principle of "hitbatlut" can help us identify the limits of human intellect and the limits of human effort in general. In a very hard-driven world with demanding standards of success, hitbatlut teaches us to sometimes just let go. Letting go is sometimes more difficult than piling ahead. 3. We Are Not Alone Ancient cultures were unable to study or fully understand their world; unaided by science they inhabited very a dark and mysterious planet. However, they were better able to believe in realties which their eyes couldn’t discern but which they knew existed based on delivered traditions. Our world, carefully mapped and classified through the tools of modern science, leaves no room for mystery and no room for belief in anything beyond the rational. Chasidus is based on kaballah, the system of Jewish mysticism which traces the interaction between our own universe and upper worlds; these upper tiers intermediate between our physical world and an infinite non-physical God. Science and ration are completely incapable of describing those upper worlds since these realms lie beyond the reach of human detection. Imagine, for a moment, that our world was just a room - an incredibly large room – but a room none the less, and merely part of a larger building with upper stories we know to exist but cannot ever see. Kaballah depicts these worlds and the dynamics through which our worlds interact. Kaballah study, which predated Chasidus, was always a vital part of Torah study, though typically reserved for advanced students.

  • Separating Terumah Tameh for Tahor
    בס"ד Volume 13. Issue 26 Separating Terumah Tameh for Tahor The beginning of masechet Terumot discusses separating The Tosfot (Yevamot 89a) first citesthe Rivan that cites the terumah gedolah – the first gift removed from produce and above pasuk as the source. The Tosfot reject this based on given to the kohanim. Specifically, the Mishnah begins by the Gemara cited above which explains that the cases discussing who is able to separate terumah and the manner derived from the pasuk would not be terumah at all, even in which it must be done. Many of the Mishnayot discuss be’shogeg. separating terumah from one pile or type of produce to satisfy the requirements of another. One case discussed (2:2) The Tosfot therefore brings three answer. First they cite is separating terumah from a tameh pile of produce for a Rashi who explains that the Chachamim forbad it since it tahor one. The Mishnah forbids such practice. If one would result in a loss for the Kohen. Had the person nonetheless does so, the Mishnah explains that if it was a separated from the tahor pile, the Kohen would have mistake (be’shogeg), e.g. he did not know it was tameh, then received edible produce. Since however the requirement was it is considered terumah. If however he acted deliberately, separated from tameh produce, the Kohen can only burn it then “he has done nothing”. We shall try an understand this and therefore loses out. Consequently, the Chachamim law. ideally prevented such practice. The Bartenura explains that we must understand that in this Second they suggest that perhaps the Chachamim instituted Mishnah the produce was tameh after the point it because a gezeira including these cases where there was a shaat obligated in separating maasrot.

  • Tanya Sources.Pdf
    The Way to the Tree of Life Jewish practice entails fulfilling many laws. Our diet is limited, our days to work are defined, and every aspect of life has governing directives. Is observance of all the laws easy? Is a perfectly righteous life close to our heart and near to our limbs? A righteous life seems to be an impossible goal! However, in the Torah, our great teacher Moshe, Moses, declared that perfect fulfillment of all religious law is very near and easy for each of us. Every word of the Torah rings true in every generation. Lesson one explores how the Tanya resolved these questions. It will shine a light on the infinite strength that is latent in each Jewish soul. When that unending holy desire emerges, observance becomes easy. Lesson One: The Infinite Strength of the Jewish Soul The title page of the Tanya states: A Collection of Teachings ספר PART ONE לקוטי אמרים חלק ראשון Titled הנקרא בשם The Book of the Beinonim ספר של בינונים Compiled from sacred books and Heavenly מלוקט מפי ספרים ומפי סופרים קדושי עליון נ״ע teachers, whose souls are in paradise; based מיוסד על פסוק כי קרוב אליך הדבר מאד בפיך ובלבבך לעשותו upon the verse, “For this matter is very near to לבאר היטב איך הוא קרוב מאד בדרך ארוכה וקצרה ”;you, it is in your mouth and heart to fulfill it בעזה״י and explaining clearly how, in both a long and short way, it is exceedingly near, with the aid of the Holy One, blessed be He. "1 of "393 The Way to the Tree of Life From the outset of his work therefore Rav Shneur Zalman made plain that the Tanya is a guide for those he called “beinonim.” Beinonim, derived from the Hebrew bein, which means “between,” are individuals who are in the middle, neither paragons of virtue, tzadikim, nor sinners, rishoim.

  • Kashering Keilim: Back to Basics Rabbi Moshe Grebenau
    Kashering Keilim: Back to Basics Rabbi Moshe Grebenau Once a utensil has been used to cook something that is not Kosher it needs to be Kashered. A common example is buying a used utensil from a non-Jew. When a utensil is bought from a non-Jew it must be Kashered and Toiveled (placed in the Mikva). Unlike putting utensils in the Mikvah, Kashering a pot has to do with physical cleanliness. When a utensil is placed in the Mikva the status it attains is entirely Halachic in nature and has nothing to do with the physical makeup of the pot. But before a pot can be placed in the Mikvah it must be clean. One level of cleanliness is actual food matter that can be seen on the surface of the pot; this must be cleaned off. The second level of cleanliness, which we will focus on tonight, is the food matter that is absorbed into the walls of the pot during previous food preparation. The source for this idea is a Parsha in the Torah at the end of Bamidbar (31:21- 24). Bnei Yisroel defeats Midyan and collects a great deal of spoils. Some of the spoils are cooking utensils and Hashem includes instructions to Bnei Yisroel on how to prepare the utensils before they are used. Most Rishonim understand that this was an explanation to Bnei Yisroel of the above idea. Since the people of Midyan had previously used these utensils for non-Kosher animals and Basar B’Chalav etc. there were remnants of the tastes in the walls of the utensils.

  • Of the Mishnah, Bavli & Yerushalmi
    0 Learning at SVARA SVARA’s learning happens in the bet midrash, a space for study partners (​chevrutas​) to build a relationship with the Talmud text, with one another, and with the tradition—all in community and a queer-normative, loving culture. The learning is rigorous, yet the bet midrash environment is warm and supportive. Learning at SVARA focuses on skill-building (learning how to learn), foregrounding the radical roots of the Jewish tradition, empowering learners to become “players” in it, cultivating Talmud study as a spiritual practice, and with the ultimate goal of nurturing human beings shaped by one of the central spiritual, moral, and intellectual technologies of our tradition: ​Talmud Torah​ (the study of Torah). The SVARA method is a simple, step-by-step process in which the teacher is always an authentic co-learner with their students, teaching the Talmud not so much as a ​normative​ document prescribing specific behaviors, but as a ​formative​ document, shaping us into a certain kind of human being. We believe the Talmud itself is a handbook for how to, sometimes even radically, upgrade our tradition when it no longer functions to create the most liberatory world possible. All SVARA learning begins with the CRASH Talk. Here we lay out our philosophy of the Talmud and the rabbinic revolution that gave rise to it—along with important vocabulary and concepts for anyone learning Jewish texts. This talk is both an overview of the ultimate goals of the Jewish enterprise, as well as a crash course in ​halachic​ (Jewish legal) jurisprudence. Beyond its application to Judaism, CRASH Theory is a simple but elegant model of how all change happens—whether societal, religious, organizational, or personal.

  • Judges) “In All Your Gates” That They Are to Judge the People with Righteous Judgment
    בייה PORTION DATE HEB DATE TORAH NEVIIM RENEWED Shoftim 18 Aug. 2018 7 Elul 5778 Deut. 16:18-21:9 Isa. 51:12-52:12 John 14:9-20 This week’s Torah portion starts with the qualification of shoftim (judges) “in all your gates” that they are to judge the people with righteous judgment. The Torah then describes how they are to judge against the accused. The Midrash questions the eligibility of judges. The immediate family of litigants are disqualified to judge as well as they are ineligible to testify as said, “The ahvot (fathers) shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the ahvot.” (Deut. 24:16) The Gemara interprets: fathers shall not be executed because of the testimony of sons, and vice versa.1 Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel (10 BCE-70 CE) said: Do not make light of justice, for it is one of the three legs of the world: justice, truth, and on peace. Therefore, we are to be mindful of not perverting justice as “you can cause the world to shake2 for it (justice) is one of the legs of Hashem’s Throne of Glory. “Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne.” (Psa 85:15) The Proverbs 6:6-8 says, “Go to the ant, you lazy one; consider her halachot, and be wise: They have no guide, overseer, or ruler, yet she; Provides her food in the and gathers her food in the harvest.” The sages teach the ants has three stories in its home.

  • TISHREI Rosh Hashanah Begins on Friday Night. When
    9 TISHREI The Molad: Monday night, 11:27 and 11 portions.1 The moon may be sanctified until Tuesday, the 15th, 5:49 p.m.2 The fall equinox: Thursday, Cheshvan 1, 9:00 a.m. Rosh HaShanah begins on Monday night. When lighting candles, we recite two blessings: L’hadlik ner shel Yom HaZikaron (“...to kindle the light of the Day of Remembrance”) and Shehecheyanu (“...who has granted us life...”). (In the blessing should be vocalized לזמן Shehecheyanu, the word lizman, with a chirik.) Tzedakah should be given before lighting the candles. Girls should begin lighting candles from the age when they can be trained in the observance of the mitzvah.3 Until marriage, girls should light only one candle. The Rebbe urged that all Jewish girls should light candles before Shabbos and festivals. Through the campaign mounted at his urging, Mivtza Neshek, the light of the Shabbos and the festivals has been brought to tens of thousands of Jewish homes. A man who lights candles should do so with a blessing, but should not recite the blessing Shehecheyanu.4 The Afternoon Service before Rosh HaShanah. “Regarding the issue of kavanah (intent) in prayer, for those who do not have the ability to focus their kavanah because of a lack of knowledge or due to other factors... it is sufficient that they have in mind a general intent: that their prayers be accepted before Him as if they were recited with all the intents 1.

    Pesachim - Simanim ףד י ח – Daf 18 1. A cow drinking mei chatas Rav Nachman bar Yitzchak brought a Mishnah from Parah to prove that when Rebbe Yehuda retracted his ruling and said mashkin can only be metamei mid’Rabbanon, it was not just with regard to keilim but also to .if a cow drank mei chatas its flesh is tamei – הרפ התתשש מ י תאטח הרשב אמט ,food. The Mishnah stated the water is nullified in the cow’s intestines and lost its capacity to be – לטב ו עמב י ה ,Rebbe Yehudah said metamei, therefore, the flesh, which is considered food, is tahor. Rashi explains that since the water becomes unfit for purification within the cow’s innards, it loses its capacity to be metamei. If Rebbe Yehudah held that mashkin is metamei mid’Oraysa, then the water should be metamei regardless if it is fit for mei chatas. The Gemara says that this is not a proof that Rebbe Yehuda holds mashkin are only metamei food means that it became nullified from being metamei לטב ו עמב י ה mid’Rabbanon, because it may be that , האמוט הלק meaning, that it cannot make a person or vessels tamei, but it still can be metamei , האמוט מח ו הרומ Really Rebbe Yehudah – על ו םל לטב ו מב י הע ירמגל ,such as food, and in this case flesh. Rav Ashi answered because once – שמ ו ם הד ו ה היל קשמ ה רס ו ח ,holds that the water is completely nullified in the cow’s intestines inside the cow the water is a putrid beverage, which is entirely precluded from tumah.
