YOUNG ISRAEL OF HOLLYWOOD-FT. LAUDERDALE MARCH 2019 PAGE 3 RABBI’S MESSAGE OUR FASCINATION WITH THE MOON

In an emotional and historic moment for Israel, the upwards direction. We must recognize that regression, mistakes Beresheet unmanned spacecraft dreamed up by the nonprofit and pitfalls can and will happen. Coming to terms with this organization SpaceIL launched flawlessly in a SpaceX Falcon 9 reality ensures that such lapses are momentary, they don’t rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida at consume us, and we are able to move on to greater heights. 8:45pm February 21. Inscribed on the craft are the words “Am Yisrael Chai”. Inside is a time capsule containing digital files There is no assurance that any of us will become better including a nano , Israeli national symbols, Tefilat people tomorrow than we are today. It is not inevitable. Growth HaDerech and children’s drawings. must be sought out and pursued. We must be on the look-out for avenues of inspiration. Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch explains Beresheet is expected to transmit panoramic and “selfie” that the new moon is a phenomenon which provides us with pictures, videos and scientific measurements, and – perhaps most encouragement. He writes: “The Jewish consecration of the new importantly – plant a blue-and-white Israeli flag on the moon. If moon is an institution for the periodic fresh spiritual and moral Beresheet lands successfully, Israel will be the fifth country to rejuvenation of Israel by finding itself again in conjunction with plant its flag on the moon, following the USSR (1966), USA G-d.” (1969), India (2008) and China (2013). Israel would be the fourth country to soft-land on the moon; India’s mission was an impact It is fitting that the State of Israel will plant its flag on the probe. moon. The modern State of Israel is where the Jewish national dream/ ideal must find expression within the challenges of We are fascinated by the moon. Jewish months and running a real country, in a challenging part of the world. With the Jewish calendar are dependent on the moon. In Chasidic the gift of Medinat Yisrael we feel closer than ever to the thought, the sun and the moon are symbols for the ideal and fulfillment of the ideal : a source of morality and reality, respectively. The sun represents the ideal. It is the source inspiration for all of humanity. And yet we know that today’s of light, but it is distant and unapproachable. We cannot look reality is that we are not yet there. Though this reality could elicit directly at the sun without hurting our eyes. Similarly, the ideal feelings of frustration, we should instead feel grateful and should be viewed as a goal that must be strived for, yet never hopeful. For if the tiny country of Israel can go where very few fully attained. The moon represents reality. The moon reflects others have gone before, then we can be hopeful that Jerusalem light from the sun. The moon’s light resembles the sun’s rays; and the State of Israel will reach its ideal state, speedily in our however the light is not as bright. We are comfortable with the days. moon; we can stare at it. Our reality is like the moon: it is a reflection of the ideal. Real life will never exactly match what we RABBI YOSEF WEINSTOCK hope it to be. Yet we must try to make the reflection in reality as close as possible to the ideal.

The sun is always full. It remains constant. We experience the moon in a completely different manner. The moon waxes and wanes, varying in our perspective from completely full to barely visible. Traditionally, this phenomenon has been compared to the experience of the Jewish people throughout history. Sometimes, our presence shines forth onto the world stage with intensity. At other times it appears as if the has vanished, only to reappear almost miraculously.

We can extend the symbolism of the moon to the individual. The moon mirrors our religious experience, not as we might ideally want it to be but rather how it exists in reality. There are times when we feel inspired, when all the dots in our life seem to connect. Our faith and religious conviction at those times are strong, and can illuminate our lives like a full moon.

But, in reality we know that is not the case. There are times FULL SIZE MODEL OF THE BERESHEET MOON PROBE, AS when clarity is sorely lacking. We may feel a need to question PRESENTED IN TEL AVIV ON THE DAY OF ITS LAUNCH principles that we have long taken for granted. We lose our direction. It is like trying to navigate in the dark during a moonless night. This is the reality of life. It is what the moon symbolizes. Our religiosity will not constantly be moving in an

ARE WE REALLY ALLOWED TO FAST ON TAANIT ESTHER? Rabbi Adam Frieberg: [email protected] Rav Yaakov ben Asher authored the seminal work Arbaah Perplexingly, the provides two contradictory rulings Turim, colloquially referred to simply as The Tur. The ground on this issue: breaking four-part structure of this work, and its division into The Gemara concludes: And the is that these days chapters (simanim), was adopted by the later code Shulchan were nullified, and the halakha is that they were not Aruch, and has become the way we codify halacha to this day. nullified. In his laws of Purim, he quotes a statement from Megillat 1 Realizing the difficulty of this “conclusion”, the Talmud Taanit . elaborates: It is stated in Megillat Taanit that on the fourteenth day and The Gemara asks: This is difficult, as one halakha the fifteenth day of Adar, which are the days of Purim, we contradicts the other halakha! may not eulogize, nor may we fast. The Gemara answers: It is not difficult. Here, it is referring The Talmud2 extends this restriction, stating: to and Purim. These Festival days were never It was taught in a Braita: Regarding these days, which are nullified. There, the halakha is referring to the rest of the written in Megillat Taanit, it is forbidden to fast both on days listed in Megillat Ta’anit, all of which were nullified.

the days preceding them and on the days following them. 5 rules that Megillat Taanit has been The obvious question jumps off the page! If we are not practically nullified and the holidays listed within it are no allowed to fast on the day before Purim, how can it be that longer observed (you may fast on those days, as well as the Taanit Esther has been a part of our tradition for so many days before and after them), with the glaring exception of years? Hanukkah and Purim. However, it notes that you may fast on

The answer may lie in understanding whether or not Megillat the day before and after Hanukkah and Purim, even though that was not the original law. Taanit is still a valid halachic source in our day and age. But before investigating that matter, we must ask a more basic While we have found a strong halakhic source for allowing us question; what is Megillat Taanit? Composed in Talmudic to fast the day before Purim, and therefore permitting Taanit Israel/Babylon (c.40 - c.70 CE) Megillat Taanit (The Fast Esther, the question as to how this compromise position was Scroll) is a chronicle which enumerates 35 eventful days on arrived at, remains. which the Jewish nation either performed glorious deeds or Tosafot6 simply states that when the opinion that stated that witnessed joyful events. These days were celebrated as feast- the festivity of Hanukkah and Purim were retained, it did not days. Public mourning was forbidden on fourteen of them, and 3 include the days surrounding these two holidays. We do not public fasting on all. The Talmud states: The Sages taught in maintain their festive status, similar to all the other festive a with regard to Megillat Taanit: Who wrote Megillat days that lost their status, as during the current exile the Ta’anit? This scroll was written by Ḥananya ben Ḥizkiya ben former festive days become poignant reminders of the past Garon and his faction, who held dear the memory of the miracles, and therefore leave us with sadness, instead of glee. troubles that befell Israel and their salvation from them. The Tur presents a totally different idea. He suggests that If Megillat Taanit is a work discussed in the Talmud, why may 4 Taanit Esther actually helps us commemorate Purim! How so? its ruling no longer be applicable? The Talmud discusses this In attempting to figure out which days the megillah may be exact question: read on7, the Talmud8 states, “the thirteenth of Adar is a time The question of whether or not Megillat Taanit has been of assembly for all, as it was on that day that the Jews nullified is the subject of a dispute between tanayim, as it is assembled to fight their enemies, and the main miracle was taught in a baraita: These days, which are written in performed on that day.” The Tur suggests that just like the Megillat Taanit, both when the Temple is standing and Jews assembled on the 13th of Adar in Shushan, so too on when the Temple is not standing, are days on which fasting Taanit Esther (the 13th of Adar9) the Jews from the villages is prohibited; this is the statement of Rabbi Meir. Rabbi gather in the cities to say slichot and pray for mercy as they Yosi says: When the Temple is standing, these days are did in the days of Purim itself. prohibited for fasting because these days are a source of joy for Israel. But when the Temple is not standing, these days So as we do fast on this Taanit Esther, let it be a day of prayer are permitted for fasting because these days are a source of and supplication, as we join together, and strengthen our mourning for them. communal resolve, as that is the ultimate strength of the Jewish people.

LAUDERDALE MARCH 2019 PAGE 13 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Q: I davened Mincha earlier in the afternoon (before Plag Hamincha). Later in the afternoon (after Plag Hamincha) I am at shul while the minyan is about to daven Mincha. I cannot stay for Maariv. Can I daven my Maariv Amidah while the minyan davens the Mincha Amidah, and get credit for “Tefilah B’TZibur”?

A: Magen Avraham (OC 90:16) writes that you cannot fulfill Tefilah B’TZibur in this way. His proof is from Avoda Zara 4b that forbad davening Mussaf on Rosh Hashana at home within the first three hours of the day when the Tzibur is davening Shacharit in Shul. However, the Eliya Rabba (236:7) argues that it would be considered Tefilah B’TZibur if you are actually in the shul. Though this is a dispute among later authorities, the consensus opinion is like the Magen Avraham.

Q: Is one obligated to observe the mitzvot on the moon?

A: This question is discussed in the book "Man on the Moon" by Rav Menachem Kasher. It is clear that a person is obligated to perform the mitzvot on the moon. The Torah preceded the world, and not only are we obligated to observe it in Eretz Yisrael and everywhere in the world, but everywhere in the Universe as well. There are particular laws and practices that may be different on the moon, such as: Halachic times, when Shabbat should be observed, but everyone agrees that a Jew would be obligated in these halachot on the moon. An interesting question was raised concerning Kiddush Levana. One needs to be able to see the moon when reciting this prayer. Can you say Kiddush Levana if you are standing on the moon, and therefore you will not see the moon in the sky? (Rav Kasher says that one would not say Kiddush Levana on the moon, while Rav Menashe Klein ruled that one could say it.)

Q: Can one fulfill the mitzvah of Mishloach Manot if the package is sent anonymously?

A: There is a difference of opinion as to the purpose of Mishloach Manot. According to the Terumat HaDeshen, the purpose is to provide foodstuffs for the Purim Seudah. According to this approach, even anonymous Mishloach Manot would fulfill this purpose, and the mitzvah has been fulfilled. Rav Shlomo Alkabetz (author of Lecha Dodi that we sing at Kabbalat Shabbat) writes that the purpose of Mishloach Manot is to foster friendship between the giver and the recipient. According to this approach, anonymous Mishloach Manot would not fulfill the obligation. It is proper to follow Rav Alkabetz’s opinion.

Celebrating Golda Meir

There have been many Israeli leaders, but only one “Golda.” Fifty years ago this March, she became Israel’s first female prime minister.

Born in Kiev in 1898, she started life as Goldie Mabovitch. She and her family immigrated to the United States in 1906, settling in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where she was educated and became a teacher. She married Morris Myerson in 1917, and in 1921 she and her husband left for a kibbutz in the then-British Mandate of Palestine.

Beginning in 1928, Golda was the secretary of the Working Women’s Council in Palestine. She served as its representative on the leadership of the Histadrut, the national trade union of mandatory Palestine. In 1929, she was elected to be a delegate to most meetings of the World Zionist Organization. This was the real beginning of her Zionist political activity.

In 1940, she was appointed head of the political department of the Histadrut. She had a leading role in fighting against the British White Paper of 1939, which limited Jewish immigration to Palestine. As the Nazis sought to exterminate Europe’s Jews, Golda organized illegal Jewish immigration to the safety of Palestine.

Golda rose high and quick in pre-state politics. As head of the political department of the Jewish Agency, from 1946, she worked for the many Jewish refugees who had fled Europe for Palestine, and for the release of leading Zionists who had been arrested.

Early in 1948 she visited the United States to organize an emergency fundraising campaign for Palestine. It was widely assumed the trip could raise no more than $8 million. Golda raised $50 million, the equivalent of more than half a billion dollars today.

At age 50 Golda was one of the signatories of Israel’s Proclamation of Independence. She was Israel’s inaugural ambassador to the then-Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), and held Israel’s first-ever passport. In 1949 she was elected to the Knesset, and served as minister of labor until 1956 when she became foreign minister, and Hebraized her last name to Meir.

When Golda retired as foreign minister in 1966, she agreed to take over the leadership of Israel’s Mapai Party. She succeeded in uniting three main labor groups—Mapai, Achdut Ha’Avodah and Rafi—into one political party (Labor). The summer following the merger Golda retired from political activity.

However, after the death of Prime Minister Levi Eshkol in 1969, Golda came out of retirement to assume the post of Israel’s prime minister. During her premiership, she ordered the Mossad to hunt down those responsible for the massacre of Israeli Olympians in Munich and led Israel to victory in the Yom Kippur War. Her diplomatic expertise was put to the test when she successfully negotiated with President Nixon for vital U.S. military aid, which turned the tide of the Yom Kippur War and set the stage for future U.S.-Israel defense cooperation. Despite leading her party to victory in the 1973 elections, she resigned in 1974, feeling that her work on behalf of the state was done. She died in Jerusalem of cancer in 1978, at age 80.

Golda Meir was a titan of modern Zionism and one of the most accomplished women of the twentieth century. Her impact on state of Israel and the U.S.-Israel relationship continues to this day.
