    Israel in the Synagogue Dr. Samuel Heilman, Professor of Jewish Studies and Sociology, City University of New York

    Israel in the Synagogue Dr. Samuel Heilman, Professor of Jewish Studies and Sociology, City University of New York Israel in Our Lives is a project sponsored by The CRB Foundation, The Joint Authority for Jewish Zionist Education Department of Jewish Education and Culture in the Diaspora, and The Charles R. Bronfman Centre for the Israel Experience: Mifgashim. In cooperation with Jewish Education Service of North America and Israel Experience, Inc. Israel In Our Lives Online was funded in part through a generous grant from the Joint Program for Jewish Education of the Jewish Agency for Israel and the Ministry of Education and Culture of the State of Israel. The editors would like to thank all the authors, advisors, and consultants of the Israel In Our Lives series— educational leaders who have brought their considerable insights and talents to bear on this project. In addition to those already mentioned in these pages, we extend our appreciation to those who helped in shaping the project concept: Dr. Zvi Bekerman, Gidon Elad, Dr. Cecile Jordan, Rachel Korazim, Clive Lessem, Caren Levine, Dr. Zev Mankowitz, Dr. Eliezer Marcus, & Susan Rodenstein. Part 1 While no one would suggest that the synagogue and Israel are duplicates of one another - and indeed the differences between them are legion - they have in this generation increasingly represented (especially for North American Jewry) two important, parallel symbols of Jewish identity. This is because both are special "places" in which being a Jew constitutes an essential pre-requisite, perhaps even a sine qua non, for affiliation. Additionally, both are places where one expects to find Jews in the overwhelming majority and in charge, where Jewish concerns are paramount, and where Hebrew is spoken.

    Shofar Quarterly Magazine

    SHOFAR QUARTERLY MAGAZINE rpua Winter 2021 | 5781 Autumn of 2020 marked the end of an era and brought to a close the Beth El Women’s League. Women’s League has been a source of support, of instruction, of joy for our children and our children’s children. Indeed, they have made Beth El good “all the days of our life” in ways far too numerous to count and have blessed us with peace and wholeness. Because of the work and dedication on behalf of Women’s League, the light of Beth El will continue to shine. Daring to Dream By Rabbi Alexander Davis, Rabbi Avi Olitzky and Cantor Audrey Abrams Recently, we celebrated Tu Bishevat, the New Year of Trees. As much as we enjoyed the celebration – the wine and fruit and songs – it felt odd. Here we were announcing the arrival of spring in the midst of winter! Tu Bishevat may work in Israel, but it feels very out of place in Minnesota. Rather than see a disconnect, a commentary by 19th Century German Rabbi Shimshon Raphael Hirsch teaches us that it is precisely in the dead of winter when we should dream of spring: What do we usually think? When spring arrives, resplendent with its dazzling buds and flowers – that is the time to joyously celebrate the coming of spring. But ancient Jewish tradition speaks otherwise. It instructs us to gaze upon the bare trees, during the height of snowy winter, and whispers to us its precious and profound secret: Behold, these trees are already celebrating the day of their renewal, in the following spring.
