Special Parental Blessing to Children on Erev Yom Kippur YOUNG ISRAEL OF HOLLYWOOD-FT. LAUDERDALE SEPTEMBER 2020 PAGE 3 RABBI WEINSTOCK’S MESSAGE “THE SOUNDS OF SILENCE” WHEN ROSH HASHANA FALLS ON SHABBAT If all the Jews are assembled on the Day of Judgement, and the Rosh Hashana), Rosh Hashana is called “Yom Teruah – a day of shofar does not sound, is it really Rosh Hashana? The shofar’s shofar blowing.” However, in Parshat Emor the day is described blast is symbolic of so many things and seems integral to our as “Zichron Teruah,” which is understood as a time of Rosh Hashana experience. And yet this year, we will not sound remembering the shofar through the recitation of shofar-themed the shofar on Day One of Rosh Hashana. How do we understand prayers. The Talmud explains that Rosh Hashana is a “Zichron the absence of the shofar when Rosh Hashana falls on Shabbat? Teruah” when it falls on Shabbat. One could suggest that shofar is incompatible with Shabbat Zichron Teruah plays center stage. We identifiy Rosh on Halachik grounds. However, this is not the case. The Mishna Hashana as Zichron Teruah in the Kiddush we will recite on teaches that in the Beit Hamikdash, the shofar was indeed blown Shabbat Rosh Hashana. We call the holiday Zichron Teruah on Shabbat. Even after the destruction of the Temple, Rabbi during each of the four Shemoneh Esrei’s that we recite over Yochanan Ben Zakkai wanted to perpetuate this practice in Shabbat. The fact that Zichron Teruah is utilized so often as a commemoration of the Temple. There is a dispute as to its exact description for the holiday indicates that this title is more than parameters, but Rabbi Yochanan instituted that under certain just a reference to the absence of shofar. Rather Zichron Teruah conditions, the shofar should be sounded on Rosh Hashana that hints at a fundamental aspect of Rosh Hashana. occurred on Shabbat. The concept of Remembrance is one of the three themes In fact, in 1881 Rabbi Akiva Yosef Schlesinger convened a highlighted in the Rosh Hashana Mussaf. The Talmud states: private minyan in which they blew shofar on Shabbat in the Old “Hashem stated: ‘Recite before Me on Rosh Hashana verses of City of Jerusalem. Rabbi Schlesinger, a prominent Rabbi at the Kingship, Remembrance and Shofar. Kingship verses to declare time, has a detailed Halakhic analysis why blowing shofar on Me King over you. Remembrance verses- so that the Shabbat is permissible in Jerusalem. Most authorities, although remembrance of you will come before me for good.’ And agreeing to his logic, strongly disagreed with Rabbi through what? Through the shofar.” Schlesinger’s actions. Rabbi Shmuel Salant instructed his In Malchuyot we coronate God as King of the Universe. community not to blow shofar, but he also said not to hold it This is an idea oft-repeated in our prayers. The shofar is the against those who would follow Rabbi Schlesinger’s view. Rav instrument by which we remind ourselves of so many facets of Kook’s father-in-law, the Aderet, was quoted as saying that if he the holiday. But it is easy for Zichronot to get lost in the shuffle. had another chance, he would go and stand outside of the shul to Out of the three themes, Zichronot is the least defined and the hear the shofar on Shabbat. least spoken of. From the Mishna and these stories we see that shofar IS an On Shabbat we are challenged to use our minds and hear appropriate and powerful symbol even when Rosh Hashana the shofar without it being sounded. To understand what it is we occurs on Shabbat. If we are going to look to the shofar for are listening for, it behooves us to focus on Zichronot- the aspect meaning as we do every Rosh Hashana, then we must try to hear of Rosh Hashana that focuses on memory. the shofar’s sound of silence.

    ROSH HASHANAH JEWISH NEW YEAR “The LORD spoke to Moses, saying: Speak to the Israelite people thus: In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall observe complete rest, a sacred occasion commemorated with loud blasts. You shall not work at your occupations; and you shall bring an offering by fire to the LORD.” (Lev. 23:23-25) ROSH HASHANAH, the first day of the seventh month (the month of Tishri), is celebrated as “New Year’s Day”. On that day the Jewish people wish one another Shanah Tovah, Happy New Year. ש נ ָׁהָׁטוֹב ָׁה Rosh HaShanah, however, is more than a celebration of a new calendar year; it is a new year for Sabbatical years, a new year for Jubilee years, and a new year for tithing vegetables.

  • Chassidus on the Eh're Chassidus on the Parsha +
    LIGHTS OF OUR RIGHTEOUS TZADDIKIM בעזרת ה ' יתבר A Tzaddik, or righteous person , makes everyone else appear righteous before Hashem by advocating for them and finding their merits. Kedushas Levi, Parshas Noach (Bereishis 7:1) RE ’EH _ CHASSIDUS ON THE PARSHA + Dvar Torah The Merit of Charity Compound forms of verbs usually indicate thoroughness. Yet when the Torah tells us (14:22), “You shall fully tithe ( aser te’aser ) all the produce of your field,” our Sages derive another concept. “ Aser bishvil shetis’asher ,” they say. “Tithe in order that you shall become wealthy.” Why is this so? When the charity a person gives, explains Rav Levi Yitzchak, comes up to Heaven, its provenance is scrutinized. Why was this particular amount giv en to charity? Then the relationship to the full amount of the harvest is discovered. There is a ration of ten to one, and the amount given is one tenth of the total. In this way the entire harvest participates in the mitzvah but only in a secondary role. Therefore, if the charity was given with a full heart, the person giving the charity merits that the quality of his donation is elevated. The following year, the entire harvest is elevated from a secondary role to a primary role in the giving of the charit y. The amount of the previous year’s harvest then becomes only one tenth of the new harvest, and the giver becomes wealthy. n Story Unfortunately, there were all too many poor people who circulated among the towns and 1 Re ’eh / [email protected] villages begging for assistance in staving off starvation.

  • The Yomim Nora'im, Days of Awe Or High Holy Days, Are Among
    The Yomim Nora’im, Days of Awe or High Holy Days, are among the most sacred times in the Jewish calendar. The period from Rosh HaShanah through Yom Kippur encompasses a time for reflection and renewal for Jews, both as individuals and as a community. In addition, throughout the world, and especially in American Jewish life, more Jews will attend services during these days than any other time of the year. The High Holy Days fall at a particularly important time for Jewish students on college campuses. Coming at the beginning of the academic year, they will often be a new student’s first introduction to the Jewish community on campus. Those students who have a positive experience are likely to consider attending another event or service, while those who do not feel comfortable or welcomed will likely not return again. Therefore, it is critical that both services and other events around the holidays be planned with a great deal of care and forethought. This packet is designed as a “how-to” guide for creating a positive, Reform High Holy Day experience on campus. It includes service outlines, program suggestions and materials, and sample text studies for leaders and participants. There are materials and suggestions for campuses of many varieties, including those which have separate Reform services – either led solely or in part by students – and those which only have one “communal” service. The program ideas include ways to help get people involved in the Jewish community during this time period whether or not they stay on campus for the holidays.

  • All High Holy Days – Shofar Calls
    This activity augments the Rodef Reads selection for 2018-2019, My Jewish Year by Abby Pogrebin. It is designed to support at-home family celebration of the Jewish holidays. Shofar Calls Most Jews associate the blowing of the shofar with the ram sent to Moses to sacrifice instead of Jacob. But the shofar and its calls have much more meaning. Many people believe that the shofar calls are intended to inspire people to mend their lives and repent. In the Rosh Hashanah service there are four calls: TE'KI'AH, SH’VA'RIM, TE'RU'AH, and TE'KI'AH GE'DO'LAH. In this activity, you will learn the meanings of the shofar calls and come up with some of your own. When to do this activity: Any time leading up to the High Holidays Preparation: You will need: • An internet-connected computer with sound • Optional -- A musical instrument and someone who knows how to play it. A brass or woodwind instrument is recommended, but you can use a piano or even a kazoo. The Activity: 1. Listen to the sounds of the shofar. Here are a few of the many available sites and YouTube videos: a. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jR20-0sy1Y b. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pb0A_cPlHlk c. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73Qw4HZkZDw d. https://amenvamen.com/shofar-blowing-meaning/ 2.

EVEN IN THE ASPECT OF OUR PHYSICAL WELL-BEING AND HEALTH "A generation ago, the Rabbi of Jerusalem was Rabbi Shmuel Salant, a great scholar, famous throughout the world. During his childhood, he lived in Lithuania, in the city of Salant. In his youth, he contracted tuberculosis. The greatest doctors feared for his life and nearly surrendered all hope. They recommended he travel to a certain healthy locale, between Egypt and Ethiopia. Perhaps there he could live many more years. Rabbi Salant said to them, 'This location is close to the Land of Israel. It is preferable to travel there.' Thus he journeyed to Jerusalem, where he lived to the age of ninety-three, serving as rabbi of the city for sixty years." "Similarly, there was an important doctor, a well known researcher, neither religious, nor Zionist, yet he claimed that among the wide variety of diseases, there are certain sicknesses which occur more frequently among Jews. 'The reason is because we are Asians,' he said. 'We belong to the Land of Israel. In the Diaspora, we don't find a climate suited to us, and when this is compounded with a particular physical weakness, it takes its revenge.'''

  • Guide for Sephardim Prepared by Rabbi Yonatan Nacson1
    Laws for Praying at Home During the High Holidays A Practical Halachic Guide for Sephardim Prepared by Rabbi Yonatan Nacson1 Laws regarding Selichot 1. The Sephardic custom is to recite Selichot the entire month of Elul, starting from the day after Rosh Chodesh Elul.2 The Ashkenazic custom is to recite Selichot starting from the week of or before Rosh HaShanah.3 2. One may even recite the entire Selichot through technological means (such as a live hookup, the radio, or telephone.) However, if one merely listens to a recording of the Selichot, he may not recite it.4 It is even better to recite Selichot along with a larger minyan through a live hookup than to recite it along with a smaller minyan. This is common in Eretz Yisrael, where there are large Selichot minyanim, and many people follow along with a screen projecting the Selichot live. In such a case, it is better to recite it along with the screen than to form a separate and smaller minyan.5 3. When reciting Selichot without a minyan, one may recite the Thirteen Middot, provided that he recites them with the tune from the Torah reading.6 4. When reciting Selichot alone, one is not required to complete the pasuk for the Thirteen Middot (venakeh lo yenakeh).7 5. One who cannot recite Selichot with a minyan should refrain from saying the Aramaic parts.8 They are as .מחי ומסי (4 .מרנא דבשמיא (3 .דעני לעניי (2 .רחמנא (follows: 1 1 Most of the material in this document was excerpted from the of the Torah reading.

  • Hot Tears for a Close Friend: Rabbi Eitam Henkin HY”D
    Hot Tears For A Close Friend: Rabbi Eitam Henkin HY”D Hot Tears For A Close Friend: Rabbi Eitam Henkin HY”D by Rabbi Yechiel Goldhaber translated by Daniel Tabak I shall never forget when I first met Rabbi Eitam Henkin HY”D three years ago. At the time I had begun preparing a study on the parting of minds in the kollels of the Old Yishuv in Jerusalem 150 years ago. I managed to get my hands on a lot of rare sources, but the morass of material only beclouded the depths of the goings-on in the city at the time. The main purpose of my study was to ascertain the causes of dispute between the various ethnic groups and kollels, but the facts grew ever larger and more ramified, and soon obscurity overtook clarity. As the saying goes, I could not see the forest for the trees. One key element in the conflict centered upon Rabbi Yechiel Michel Pines. On the one hand, Rabbi Shmuel Salant viewed him as an ally, but on the other, Rabbi Yehoshua Leib Diskin, head of the rabbinical court of Brisk, loathed him. My study successfully identified this dispute as one of the main points of contention that whipped everyone in the city into a frenzy, a flashpoint whose consequences lasted decades. Needless to say, I had the articles by Eitam Henkin about Rabbi Pines in front of me. I read them multiple times, and felt as if he had lived and breathed the alleyways of the Old City in those times.
