  • On Changing the Immutable by Marc B. Shapiro,The History and Dating
    וְהָאֱמֶת וְהַשָּׁלוֹם On Changing the ;אֱהָבוּ Immutable by Marc B. Shapiro On Changing the Immutable by ;וְהָאֱמֶת וְהַשָּׁלוֹם אֱהָבוּ Marc B. Shapiro By Yitzchok Stroh Professor Marc Shapiro’s latest work, Changing the Immutable, contains considerable interesting and pertinent information for the student of Jewish history. As stated on the cover, the author attempts to reveal how the (Jewish) orthodox ‘establishment’ silences both past and present dissenting voices through “Orthodox Judaism Rewriting Its History.” I don’t intend this to be a review of the entire work (that would take a lot more time and space), however I did want to share some of my frustration here, because I sense that the author’s bias affected his objectivity, and I am afraid that many a reader will be left with an impression that in many ways does not reflect the reality of this complex topic. In this article, I would like to examine one passage of Shapiro’s work to illustrate this point. In chapter eight, entitled, “Is the truth really that important?” Shapiro writes: Because my purpose in this chapter is to chart the outer limits of what has been viewed as acceptable when it comes to falsehood and deception. I will be focusing on the more ‘liberal’ positions. My aim is to show just how far some rabbinic decisors were willing to go in sanctioning deviations from the truth. One must bear in mind, however, that there are often views in opposition to the ones I shall be examining. Perhaps this knowledge can serve as a counterweight to the shock that many readers will experience upon learning of some of the positions I will mention.

They went from topic to topic, without pause, and their conversations were recorded, transcribed and later published. During the first visit in 1983, the Rebbe asked the chief rabbis how they felt being outside of Israel. My father said that he had never left the Holy Land before, and that the time away was very difficult for him. To bring him comfort, the Rebbe expounded on the Torah verse, “Jacob lifted his feet and went to the land of the people of the East,” pointing out that while Jacob’s departure from the Land of Israel was a spiritual descent, y father, Rabbi Avraham Shapira, served as the later it turned out that this descent was for the sake of a MAshkenazi chief rabbi of Israel from 1983 until 1993, greater ascent.

  • Philo Ng.Pdf
    PHILO AND THE NAMES OF GOD By A. MARMORSTEIN,Jews College, London IN A recent work on the allegorical exegesis of Philo of Alexandria' Philo's views and teachings as to the Hebrew names of God are once more discussed and analyzed. The author repeats and shares the old opinion, elaborated and propagated by Zacharias Frankel and others that Philo was more or less ignorant of the Hebrew tongue. Philo's treat- ment of the divine names is put in the first line of witnesses to corroborate this literary verdict. This question touches wider and more important problems than the narrow ques- tion whether Philo knew Hebrew, or not,2 and if the former is the case how far his knowledge, and if the latter is true how far his ignorance went. For the theologians generally some important historical and theological problems, for Jewish theology especially, besides these, literary and relig- ious questions as to the date and origin of religious concep- tions, and the antiquity and value of our sources are involved. Philo is criticized for having no idea2 of the equivalent names used by the LXX for the Tetragrammaton and Elohim respectively. The former is translated KVptOS, the latter 4hos. This omission is the more serious since the distinction between these two names is one of Philo's chief doctrines. We are referred to a remark made by Z. Frankel about ' Edmund Stein, Die allegorische Exegese des Philo aus Alexandreia; Giessen, 1929. (Beihefte Zur ZAW. No. 51.) 2 Ibid., p. 20, for earlier observations see G.

  • Preparing a Dvar Torah
    PREPARING A DVAR TORAH GUIDELINES AND RESOURCES Preparing a dvar Torah 1 Preparing a dvar Torah 2 Preparing a dvar Torah 1 MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE ASKED TO GIVE a dvar Torah don't know where to begin. Below are some simple guidelines and instructions. It is difficult to provide a universal recipe because there are many different divrei Torah models depending on the individual, the context, the intended audience and the weekly portion that they are dealing with! However, regardless of content, and notwithstanding differences in format and length, all divrei Torah share some common features and require similar preparations. The process is really quite simple- although the actual implementation is not always so easy. The steps are as follows: Step One: Understand what a dvar Torah is Step Two: Choose an issue or topic (and how to find one) Step Three: Research commentators to explore possible solutions Step Four: Organize your thoughts into a coherent presentation 1Dvar Torah: literallly, 'a word of Torah.' Because dvar means 'a word of...' (in the construct form), please don't use the word dvar without its necessary connected direct object: Torah. Instead, you can use the word drash, which means a short, interpretive exposition. Preparing a dvar Torah 3 INTRO First clarify what kind of dvar Torah are you preparing. Here are three common types: 1. Some shuls / minyanim have a member present a dvar Torah in lieu of a sermon. This is usually frontal (ie. no congregational response is expected) and may be fifteen to twenty minutes long. 2. Other shuls / minyanim have a member present a dvar Torah as a jumping off point for a discussion.

  • Rabbi Goren and the Disintegration of the Rabbanut • Chava Ginsburg Was Born in A
    Rabbi Goren and the Disintegration of the Rabbanut https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggljfAfREjU • Chava Ginsburg was born in a small town in Poland in the early 1920s. At around 14 years old, she met and eloped with a Polish Christian man, who, after converting, took the name Avraham Borokovsky. After living for a few months in Poland, the Borokovskys made Aliyah along with Chava’s parents sometime in the 1930’s. • Soon after they arrived in Israel, Chava and Avrohom’s marriage fell apart and they separated without obtaining a Get. This became problematic when Chava did not disclose this fact to the Beit Din that issued a license for her to marry her second husband, Otto Langer, in 1944. Two children, Chanoch and Miriam, were born to Otto and Chava Langer. • In 1951, Avraham Borokovsky and Chava Langer went to the Tel Aviv Beit Din in order to execute a Get before Borokovsky’s second wedding. The Beit Din, while investigating the facts of the case, discovered Chava’s second marriage, and subsequently banned Otto and Chava from living together. Otto passed away in 1952. • IN 1955 When Chava seeked to remarry, the status of her children became known, and they were declared Mamzerim by the Beit Din. • This status was upheld until 1966, when Chanoch Langer, then a soldier in the IDF, approached Beit Din to get married. When the Beit Din ruled he was a Mamzer, he brought the case to the Supreme Rabbinical Court of Appeals. He argued that Avraham Borokovsky did not undergo a valid conversion and that he was still a practicing Christian.

  • Kaunas Modernist Community Movement: Building up Emotional Attachment to the City and Its Heritages’ Future
    KAUNAS MODERNIST COMMUNITY MOVEMENT: BUILDING UP EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENT TO THE CITY AND ITS HERITAGES’ FUTURE 1. Context Kaunas is the second largest city in Lithuania, with 400 000 inhabitants together with its District. The city is both a rich historical and modern center, concentrating business, industry, sports and cultural activities. Kaunas holds popular annual music, design, architecture, photography, modern visual art, modern dance, street art and new media festivals. Kaunas is also an academic, youthful and 1 international town, with more than 30 000 students coming to study in one of Kaunas’ 5 universities every year. Kaunas is the only Lithuanian city that belongs to the New Hanseatic League international city union. It is also famous for its unique New Town where numerous exhibitions of modern interwar architecture of the 1920-1940s are hosted regularly. Nowadays, Kaunas is renewing itself in prevision of becoming the European Capital of Culture in 2022. THE SLOGAN OF THE PROGRAM “KAUNAS THE EUROPEAN CAPITAL OF CULTURE 2022” CALLS FOR A TRANSITION FROM A “TEMPORARY” TO A “CONTEMPORARY” CAPITAL, AND A WHOLE PART OF THE PROGRAM IS DEDICATED TO KAUNAS MODERNISM (“MODERNISM FOR THE FUTURE”), DRIVEN BY THE IDEA THAT THE PAST BEHIND US CAN PUSH US FORWARD. 2. Kaunas and culture In the swirl of European history, Kaunas, then capital of the country, was Lithuania’s gate to the modernising Europe. As it was entering its “golden age” (1920-1939), modernist ideas were brought to Lithuania by intellectuals studying abroad, and acquired a unique Lithuanian artistic form of interwar modernist architecture. However, nearly a quarter-century after the restoration of Lithuania's independence, Kaunas suffered from an identity crisis, and was struggling to find a key to its future development, as memories from the interwar golden age period hardly survived through the memory of architects and other Lithuanian intellectuals.

  • THE PENTATEUCHAL TARGUMS: a REDACTION HISTORY and GENESIS 1: 26-27 in the EXEGETICAL CONTEXT of FORMATIVE JUDAISM by GUDRUN EL
    THE PENTATEUCHAL TARGUMS: A REDACTION HISTORY AND GENESIS 1: 26-27 IN THE EXEGETICAL CONTEXT OF FORMATIVE JUDAISM by GUDRUN ELISABETH LIER THESIS Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR LITTERARUM ET PHILOSOPHIAE in SEMITIC LANGUAGES AND CULTURES in the FACULTY OF HUMANITIES at the UNIVERSITY OF JOHANNESBURG PROMOTER: PROF. J.F. JANSE VAN RENSBURG APRIL 2008 ABSTRACT THE PENTATEUCHAL TARGUMS: A REDACTION HISTORY AND GENESIS 1: 26-27 IN THE EXEGETICAL CONTEXT OF FORMATIVE JUDAISM This thesis combines Targum studies with Judaic studies. First, secondary sources were examined and independent research was done to ascertain the historical process that took place in the compilation of extant Pentateuchal Targums (Fragment Targum [Recension P, MS Paris 110], Neofiti 1, Onqelos and Pseudo-Jonathan). Second, a framework for evaluating Jewish exegetical practices within the age of formative Judaism was established with the scrutiny of midrashic texts on Genesis 1: 26-27. Third, individual targumic renderings of Genesis 1: 26-27 were compared with the Hebrew Masoretic text and each other and then juxtaposed with midrashic literature dating from the age of formative Judaism. Last, the outcome of the second and third step was correlated with findings regarding the historical process that took place in the compilation of the Targums, as established in step one. The findings of the summative stage were also juxtaposed with the linguistic characterizations of the Comprehensive Aramaic Lexicon Project (CAL) of Michael Sokoloff and his colleagues. The thesis can report the following findings: (1) Within the age of formative Judaism pharisaic sages and priest sages assimilated into a new group of Jewish leadership known as ‘rabbis’.
