Lauderdale Page 3 RABBI’S MESSAGE FRIENDSHIP When one of my daughters (the favorite one) was There is a line from “Murder in the Cathedral” by in high school she came home one day and said to T.S. Eliot which goes something like this: “True me, “You know, Abba, a person has many friendship once ended can never be mended.” When I acquaintances in life, but real friends… we only have reflect on what has been stated here I would say yes a few of them in our lifetime.” I looked at her, and said and no. It is very hard to mend a fractured to my “favorite daughter” that she learned a powerful relationship, especially one that used to be close. It is lesson at a very young age. Most people do not part of greater expectations will yield to a greater understand the distinction between an acquaintance chance of disappointment. Let me share what Rav and a friend. It is very true that most of the people Soloveitchik had said about the breaking of the that we are friendly with are really acquaintances. Luchot, the Tablets. The Rav said that when Moshe Now it is good to broaden that base because we live Rabbeinu broke the Tablets, it necessitated the in a world of acquaintances. We live in a world of creation of new Tablets. What it involved was the “who you know” and not really “what you know.” For recreation of the relationship between the Children of example, if you are looking for a job, and you submit Israel and the Almighty. In this particular case Rav a resume, that will not get you the job. It might open Soloveitchik said that Bnei Yisrael and Hashem were the door but it is so helpful if you know somebody able to build a stronger relationship. It was who knows somebody. That is called protectzia but it successful. In other words it is possible to forge works and is a major asset in our lives. So it is always ahead, to mend the break, and recreate the good to broaden the base of acquaintances that we friendship. And the recreated friendship has a greater have been able to establish. There are over 500 chance to be even stronger than the first one. families in the Young Israel of Hollywood-Ft. Lauderdale.

Some of the people are too will establish a very strong base of acquaintances. social, and some others are not social enough. Our Judaism is based upon building nurturing Friendship is on a different level. It is a major level relationships. The punchline would be: Be part of the above being an acquaintance. It is actually one of the Tzibbur/Community. A Jewish community is based on most important types of relationships that we can the concept of a minyan. People getting together and forge in our lives.

That’s what happens, explained Rav but look at the very end of the eight stages. The last Soloveitchik, when a candidate for conversion two are Shalom and Rei’ut, peace and friendship.

We are not converts but we act as are beautiful, but usually the romanticism will diminish if we are in the sense of bonding together, nurturing a bit, and in a proper relationship will yield to a relationships, and strengthening our position when we deepening of the friendship that exists. A cautionary stand before Hashem. note is that there are expectations that accompany a friendship. The next line is quotable: “The closer the relationship, the higher the expectations; the greater the expectation, the more likelihood of RABBI EDWARD DAVIS disappointment.” (RED) The advice would be to lower the expectations, that way you lower the possibility of disappointment. The real message is that we have to nurture relationships so that we can develop them on all levels. In order to avoid disappointment it is necessary to develop a real skill of communication that is the hallmark of the relationship.

Mitzvah Monitor The Melachot of Shabbat- and Feeling Hashem’s Love For Us Rabbi Yosef Weinstock

In the Ten Commandments we are commanded to “Guard the Shabbat.” This is understood to mean that we must avoid engaging in work on Shabbat. The Talmud (Shabbat 73b) explains that the types of work that we avoid on Shabbat are precisely those labors that were necessary for the building and maintenance of the Mishkan. There are 39 categories of forbidden labor, each with its own subcategories and practical applications. Studying the 39 “Melachot” is one of the more technical and complicated areas of practical Jewish Law. And yet it is important to have a familiarity with the Melachot. Even categories that we might think are irrelevant for those of us who live in cities and are not farmers, can in fact have practical applications.

The Torah explains that the reason why we refrain from melachot on Shabbat is because God created the world over six days and rested on Shabbat. What does it mean that God rested? Does God need rest? Of course not! The prophet Isaiah states it clearly (40:28): “The L-rd, the everlasting G-d, Creator of the wide world, grows neither weary nor faint.” Hashem doesn’t get tired. Rather, His rest indicates that He had finished creating the universe.

Resting on Shabbat does not mean getting 12 hours of sleep Friday night, nor does it require taking a three hour Shabbat nap on summer Saturday afternoons. The essence of Shabbat rest is to desist from creation. During the weekdays we are tasked with emulating God: by being creative and contributing members of society and the world. By refraining from such constructive labor on Shabbat we admit that God is the One really in control. We must not refrain from working hard all week. But when Shabbat begins we demonstrate that we appreciate something greater than our impulse to create wealth. We submit to Hashem, but at the same time we find comfort in God’s Presence in our lives on an ongoing basis.

That is why work is not always forbidden on Shabbat; and why Melachah might only entail the slightest of exertion. For example: carrying your dining room table around your dining room is not technically forbidden on Shabbat (though not a great use of time.) And turning on a car on Shabbat, which takes very little effort, is a Torah prohibition. The emphasis is on the creative nature of the act, not only the physical exertion. All week long we are meant to be creative. On Shabbat we “unplug” from the rat race and utilize our time to spiritually recalibrate and appreciate our dependence on Hashem.

When Yom tov falls on Shabbat, there is an additional mention of the word “B’Ahavah (“with love”)in our prayer and in the evening kiddush. I recently saw in the book Avodah ShebeLev an important insight. Our Rabbis teach us that Shabbat was given to the Jewish People as a commandment at Marah, one of the Jews’ first stops upon crossing the Red Sea. The rest of the Torah, including the Mitzvot associated with Yom Tov, were given at Mt. Sinai. Another Midrash teaches us that there had to be an element of coercion when the Jews accepted the Torah (ie the mountain was held over the People’s heads). No such coercion occurred when the Jews accepted the mitzvah of Shabbat. It emerges that Shabbat is naturally a day on which we are supposed to feel God’s love for us.

This is the great challenge for us in the 21st century. If Shabbat is not a day to which we look forward, if we don’t love Shabbat, if we don’t feel God’s love expressed more intensely on Shabbat - then we’re doing something wrong and we need to rethink how we not just observe- but celebrate Shabbat.

April 2015 Young Israel of Hollywood-Ft. Lauderdale Page 9 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Q: May we use a utensil prior to immersing it if the situation presents itself where I cannot get to a mikvah to take care of the requirement?

A: One may not use the utensil which requires immersion in the mikvah at all before the immersion is performed. A Jew may retain such a utensil in his possession, without using it before immersion. One may not eat or drink from utensils that need immersion even when visiting another person’s home. Rabbi Moshe Feinstein did add that in an emergency situation one may be lenient when dealing with dry food. Rav Moshe also mentioned that a restaurant’s utensils must be immersed as well. It is forbidden to feed a minor with utensils that still require immersion. In a situation where food that is stored in a utensil that still requires immersion the food may be eaten if transferred to a utensil which has undergone immersion.

Q: What is the halachah regarding moving flowers from a vase full of water on Yom Tov? Also, in general, are flowers in a vase muktzeh on Shabbat and Yom Tov?

A: Vases are not muktzeh and may be moved even if they contain flowers. Flowers may not be placed into a vase of water on Shabbat or Yom Tov. On Shabbat one may not add to the water which has been in a vase full of flowers since before Shabbat. On Yom Tov water may be added (unless of course it is also Shabbat). On both Shabbat and Yom Tov one is permitted to take flowers out of water as long as they have not put out roots into the water, and the flowers may not be replaced even into the same water.

Q: A person took a vow never to reveal a certain thing to anyone in the world. Now he wants to reveal it and the question is how to go about it. The problem is that when having a vow annulled by a Beit Din, one is required to reveal what the vow is. Thus the moment he reveals the vow he is breaking it before the Beit Din as the opportunity to annul it. How should he proceed?

A: Firstly let us discuss the issue of taking vows. One should not be taking vows of this sort. The vows which are welcomed in halachah are the vows to do a particular mitzvah and to give tzedakah. This type of vow is often fraught with difficulties. Regarding a Beit Din, it is true he is required to reveal to the Beit Din what the vow is, but when they annul the vow it is voided retroactively so that he never really violated it. Before revealing his secret the Beit Din should caution him that if the secret involves slander, defamation of character, or the like, they will not consent to annul his vow. In this situation then retelling the vow would be a violation. (This is a Responsum from Rabbi Yitzchak Elchanan Spektor, 19th century Lithuania.)

Q: If three women are bensching together with no men present, may they bensch with a Mezuman? If ten women are bensching together, may they recite “Elokeinu”?

A: The three women bensching together alone may bensch with a Mezuman. If there are ten women they may not recite “Elokeinu” because ten women do not create a minyan. (O.C. 199:6)

Q: This is truly hypothetical and I don’t wish it on anybody, but it came up in conversation recently at a Shabbat table. If a person attempted to commit suicide and endangered his life and was saved when rushed to the hospital, does he bensch Gomel?

A: This is a matter of dispute. Rav Chaim Palagi wrote that he does recite HaGomel (Lev Chaim III:53) (Rav Palagi was the subject of Rabbi Eckstein’s doctoral dissertation.) The Tzitz Eliezer (X:25:23) disagreed because the person willfully put himself into danger. He added at the end of the Responsum saying that he would allow the person to bensch Gomel without using Hashem’s name. Rav Ovadia Yosef (Yechaveh Da’at) (IV:14) ruled that one should not recite HaGomel in such a situation. In light of the above the more modern Poskim are of the opinion that he should not bensch Gomel, and I would agree with that opinion.

Q: Normally we are required to inspect eggs for blood spots. This is obviously not possible before cooking eggs to make them hardboiled. How do we conduct ourselves in that kind of a situation?

A: Several items are worth mentioning in this regard. Number one is that it is our custom to cook an odd number of eggs. That way the majority will nullify the minority if there is found to be a blood spot. It is permissible to eat hardboiled eggs even though they cannot be checked for blood spots because we assume that each egg belongs to the majority of eggs that do not contain blood spots (Y.D. 66:8). Rav Ovadia Yosef felt that we can be lenient in situations of blood spots in today’s eggs because none of these hens were actually fertilized by roosters.

KOSHER KORNER

 Chametz may be purchased immediately after Pesach from any Jewish-owned establishment that has a valid kosher certification. Other stores have to be investigated to make sure that they do not have Jewish owners. From the latter we are permitted to purchase from BJ’s, Costco, CVS, Dunkin Donuts on Stirling Road just west of the synagogue, Kmart, Petco, Petsmart, Trader Joe’s, Walgreens, Walmart, Whole Foods. If you are buying any chametz from a Jewish-owned store you need to investigate for yourself, and please let us know the findings of your investigation. This list is not meant to be exhaustive.

 Many meat restaurants under acceptable kosher certification also serve fish. Many of the side dishes in these establishments are considered meat. For example, at Levy’s the French fries are made in the same oil that produces schnitzel. Consequently those fries may not be eaten at the same meal if you are ordering fish in that restaurant. Similarly you need to note the conditions of other meat restaurants when ordering fish.

 KRAFT STRING CHEESE and KRAFT TWISTS CHEESE. Many of them are currently OU certified, but only when bearing the OU-D on the label. Those bearing a KD are not recommended.

 POLLY-O CHEESE at Costco which as an OU-D on the outside bags, and KD on the inside bags, is certified by the OU and is acceptable for use.

 SHEMITTAH ALERT: All Israeli fruit currently available are beginning to display Shemittah produce. The Star K has announced that they are seeing carrots from Israel being sold in the Baltimore area and across the U.S. The packages state “Product of Israel.” These carrots may have the Shemittah kashrut problem and require care. If you have purchased them, consult one of the Rabbis for further guidance.

 The following is an incomplete list of popular alcoholic beverages that are not acceptable: Bud Light Lime, Fireball, Grand Marnier, Jack Daniel’s Honey, Kahlua without an acceptable kosher symbol, Mike’s Hard Lemonade, Scotch aged in sherry or port casks, Southern Comfort, Vodka which is made from grapes. Generally Vodka in the United States is acceptable as long as it is not made from grapes, whey, or wine alcohol.

 ELLEE’S GRANOLA COMPANY in Doral, Florida, makers of Ellee’s Cookies and Granolas, is no longer under Star-D certification. All products bearing date codes beyond March 10, 2015 are to be considered not certified by the Star-D, even when bearing a Star-D symbol.

 SNAPPLE. The OK certifies many Snapple products but not all of them. Snapple Cranberry Raspberry Juice drink is no longer certified (regular and diet). Check for the OK symbol before purchasing any Snapple products.

Spring Freedom: Israel’s Water Independence

As we welcome the spring and prepare to celebrate Passover with our families, we are reminded of the challenges the Jewish people have overcome throughout history. Miriam’s Cup, placed by some on the Seder table, is a symbol of Miriam's Well, the source of water for the Israelites in the desert.

While Miriam’s Well is said to have been a magical source of water for the Israelites, the modern state of Israel wasn’t blessed with such a miracle. Even decades after its founding, the Jewish state faced severe water shortages as a result of its natural, desert environment. Its water supply was entirely dependent on rainfall, posing challenges during periods of drought.

Israel’s challenge with water security continued until 1999, when the National Infrastructures Ministry implemented an emergency plan to address water usage nationwide. The result was the Regional Seawater Desalination project – a framework to construct Israel’s first desalination plant.

The first major desalination plant opened in the Ashkelon in 2005. In only a decade, four more large- scale seawater desalination plants have been constructed. Today, desalination produces approximately 40 percent of Israel’s water supply, helping to make Israel water independent from rainfall.

The newest plant, called Sorek, opened in late 2013. Located just south of Tel Aviv, it is the world’s largest modern seawater desalination plant. Built for the Israeli government by Israel Desalination Enterprises, or IDE Technologies, at a cost of around $500 million, it uses a conventional desalination technology called reverse osmosis. Thanks, however, to a series of engineering and materials advances it produces clean water from the sea cheaply and at a scale never before achieved.

“This is indeed the cheapest water from seawater desalination produced in the world,” says Raphael Semiat, a chemical engineer and desalination expert at the Israel Institute of Technology, or Technion, in Haifa.

Wanting to share its knowledge, Mashav, Israel’s Agency for International Development Cooperation, has hosted environmental professionals from all over the developing world—including Myanmar, Thailand, Cameroon, Ghana, Guyana, Bolivia, Nepal, Serbia, Bosnia and China, among others—to learn about best practices in water management, including desalinization. Representatives from these varied nations come to the Jewish state to learn how they too can turn their countries from water scarce to water independent.

Today, Israel has a surplus of fresh water, and is actively exporting its desalination expertise to other communities. Its water independence is a world ahead of the days of Miriam’s Well and a model for the rest of the world.

JEFGolf Classic Monday April 27, 2015 at Grande Oaks Golf Club 3201 West Rolling Hills Circle Davie, FL 33328 What is JEF?

The Jewish Education Fund (JEF) is an important and unprecedented project created by the Young Israel of Hollywood/Fort Lauderdale that seeks to make a real difference in helping resolve the Jewish Day School “tuition crisis”.

The goal of JEF is to transform the funding model for local Jewish Day School education. The current system of financing Jewish education is a consumer-based one; placing the burden almost exclusively on families of school-age children. The cost of a Jewish education is out of reach for many families. Our local Jewish Day Schools are committed to providing a Jewish education to as many children as is feasible. Schools constantly find themselves in fiscal insecurity, and a small cadre of reliable donors is called upon, with greater frequency, forever-increasing donations.

JEF hopes to be a catalyst in revamping the system of day school funding and reverting back to the more traditional, authentic and values-based model of communal responsibility for funding Jewish education. The goal is to broaden the base of contributors to Jewish Education by soliciting not only parents and grandparents of the Day School students, but to make the need more of a communal one. Since its inception two years ago JEF has distributed approximately $250,000 to the following local Jewish Day Schools. ∙ Bais Yaakov · Brauser Maimonides Academy · David Posnack Jewish Day School · Hebrew Academy · Hebrew Academy of Greater Miami · Hillel Community Day School - Kesher · Hillel Community Day School · Mechina High School of South Florida · Sha'arei Bina Torah Academy for Girls · Toras Emes Academy of Miami · Weinbaum Yeshiva High School

Join us for a great day of golf and support your local Jewish Day Schools at the same time.
