Com o coração pleno de gratidão ao Todo-Poderoso, é com imensa alegria que apresentamos uma nova edição revisa- da, do livro há muito esgotado, “Bintivot Hanêtsach” – “Nos Caminhos da Eternidade”. Esta obra apresenta ensaios sobre as parashiot hashavua (porções semanais) e sobre os moadim (festividades judai- cas). Na medida do possível, procuramos tratar de assuntos fundamentais do judaísmo como o Berit Milá (em Parashat Lech Lechá), o Shabat (Vayakhel), o estudo da Torá (Toledot), a pureza do lar (Metsorá) e a alimentação casher (Reê). Também apresentamos aspectos relevantes das festivi- dades judaicas, explicando conceitos básicos do judaísmo. Buscamos ainda mencionar as virtudes que a Torá solicita de nós, os atributos que nos são

  • See Sedra Summary
    Here's the story. Back in my Torah Tidbits days, we had a frequent column called TBDATR, towards better davening and Torah reading. Its goal was to fine-tune our pronunciation and accenting of Hebrew with the hope that greater care in how we say things would also lead to enhanced Kavana in our davening. On Philo-Torah, there has been a link called SH'MA part 1 & 2. That piece has now become TILDE ~ 1, which you will find at the end of this file. Next step was to take the PT-misc articles that belong to this feature and move them here. PT-misc will still be for various and sundry other issues. This file will be presented in reverse order, with the latest entry being at the top and the earliest entry at the bottom. This might be a bit confusing, but it is being done so that you don't have to scroll through the whole file to find the latest addition. Further note: from time to time - as in the last three weeks, there are TILDE comments in the Sedra Summary. I feel they belong there, but they also belong here. And that's the plan.

  • SERMON: Parashat Vay'chi
    SERMON: Parashat Vay’chi Rabbi David Edleson Temple Sinai, S. Burlington VT Jan 1, 2021 Can we just share a moment together - WHAT A YEAR IT HAS BEEN! Let’s just take a moment, take a breath and exhale and just lay down some of the burden of this past year. What is the one weight you are carrying from this past year that you just need to lay down? We have each been challenged in different ways, as each person and family is different in how this has hit them. But we have all shared in the sense of stress, of anxiety, of physical distance, of a social life in suspended animation. So much of this year has been about just moving forward, figuring out how to keep things going during all this. A good bit of energy has gone into just adjusting, coping, managing, and trying to stay positive. We now stand much closer to a sense of hope, as there is some end in sight. But I believe this year will also call to us to help others in our community in ways we haven’t been called to do in a while. After any battle, there is a momentary pause, and then the work of cleaning up and repair. That work will fall on all of us in the coming years. The economic impact of this pandemic is going to be felt painfully by some. There is a soaring need for food assistance. We will be facing a crisis in housing, due to evictions, foreclosures, and loss.
