Israel also needs the high tech industry, building projects that spring up overnight like building projects and the exquisitely beautiful the dandelions that cover my front yard from Mediterranean beaches as well.

With these words, the Torah seems to be telling us that it is appropriate to be aware of what has transpired before us, to ponder what has happened in history, to consider the experiences of those who lived in generations gone by. While one might study history out of a sense of curiosity, out of an appreciation of an exciting story, or out of a quest for general knowledge, the Torah here indi- cates that there is a more profound goal, namely, to assimilate the message that the past is relevant to us in the present.

It was created eight years ago by the merger of a Reform and Conservative congregation and many members still identify themselves strongly with one of those movements. Although the synagogue has chosen not to affiliate with any movement, the Reform prayer book is used on Friday night and the Conservative prayer book is used on Saturday morning and for the high holidays. The congregation is completely gender-egalitarian. The members of the congregation are well-educated, middle to upper-middle class and concentrated in the thirty-five to fifty-five age group. Most members are married and have children, though there is a small group of singles in their twenties and thirties and a few older people. An unusual number of congregants have strong Jewish backgrounds. At least thirty have gone to day schools or Yeshivot as children. Groups in the congregation There are four distinct groups in the congregation: 1. The Right wing - Most are day school or Y eshivah graduates.
