  • AN EVENING with MAIMONIDES John D
    ’ AN EVENING WITH MAIMONIDES John D. Rayner Introduction Moses Maimom'des was, by general consent, the greatest Jewish mind of the Middle Ages in the same way as Thomas Aquinas, who lived a century after him, is generally considered to have been the greatest Christian mind of the Middle Ages, but with this difference: that, whereas Aquinas had few rivals, since medieval Christendom was, outside the monasteries, mostly illiterate, Maimonides was one of a whole galaxy of medieval Jewish scholars for whom the epithet of ’greatest’ could conceivably be claimed, since universal education had been a fact of Jewish life —- or, rather, of male Jewish life — since antiquity. In particular, Maimonides is commonly regarded as the greatest Jewish philosopher of the Middle Ages, and therefore of all times prior to Spinoza. But I don’t intend this evening to talk much about his hilosophy, although of course I shall touch on it, because medieval Jewish philoso fly is not a subject in which I am well versed or, to be 'gh honest, for which I have a very regard. Others, especially LJS member Dr Esther Seidel, who teaches Jewish philosophy at Leo Baeck College, are better qualified to deal with that topic. Instead, I want to talk about Maimonides the man. That is to say, I want to tell you the story of his life in an old-fashioned, pedestrian, chronological way, and read you a few extracts Emm his writings, so as to allow him to "speak for himself”, with emphasis on those of his writings which throw light on his character and ideology.

  • Jewish Triads
    Sat 18 Feb 2017 / 22 Shevat 5777 B”H Dr Maurice M. Mizrahi Congregation Adat Reyim D’var Torah on Yitro Jewish triads In this week's Torah portion, Yitro, God gives the Torah to the Jews. We read: In the third month... it came to pass on the third day... that Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God... [Ex. 19:1, 16-17] In commenting on this passage, the Talmud says: A Galilean scholar lectured before Rabbi Chisda: “Blessed be the Merciful One who gave a three-fold Torah [consisting of the Torah, the Prophets and the Writings] to a three-fold people [consisting of Priests, Levites and Israelites] through a third-born [Moses, born after Aaron and Miriam] on the third day in the third month.” [Shabbat 88a] That's a lot of triads! And when you think about it, the number three is all over the place in Judaism. In the Torah itself, we learn that there are three patriarchs. Abraham was visited by three angels, three days after his circumcision. God told him to sacrifice his son Isaac at a place three days away. Adam had three sons. Noah had three sons. The prophet Balaam beat his donkey three times. Joseph’s fellow inmates told him of their dreams involving three branches and three baskets. The priestly benediction, birkat kohanim, is a threefold blessing. The Covenant between God and Israel is sealed by three things: Shabbat, circumcision and tefillin. The injunction not to seethe a calf in its mother's milk is repeated three times.

What shall be the rule as to precedence for maftir? Response: A bar-mitzvah or an aufruf shall have preference (based on earlier reservation). 3. What shall be the guidelines in regards to hosafot both on a regular Shabbat and on a Shabbat when there is a simcha (or several chiyuvim)? Response: Hosafot should be kept to a minimum, using logic and common sense. 4. Are there any requirements in regard to selecting baalei kriyah, other than knowing how to layen the parsha?

Is it appropriate to allow a youngster to layen the special parshiot of Zachor and Parah? Response: Yes, with one qualification: He must have reached the age when he has begun to shave. 6. What rules should the shul be guided by in regards to misheberachs for an oleh leTorah, in particular as to number? Response: Only one misheberach should be recited besides the usual one for the oleh himself. At a simcha only one long, inclusive misheberach should be recited, not following several olim. 7.

From the Chairperson Dear Reader Welcome to the Guide to Texts. This introductory guide to Jewish texts is written for students who want to know the difference between the Midrash and Mishna, Shulchan Aruch and Kitzur Shulchan Aruch. By taking a systematic approach to the obvious questions that students might ask, the Guide to Texts hopes to quickly and clearly give students the information they are after. Unfortunately, many Jewish students feel alienated from traditional texts due to unfamiliarity and a feeling that Jewish sources don’t ‘belong’ to them. We feel that Jewish texts ought to be accessible to all of us. We ought to be able to talk about them, to grapple with them, and to engage with them. Jewish texts are our heritage, and we can’t afford to give it up. Jewish leaders ought to have certain skills, and ethical values, but they also need a certain commitment to obtaining the knowledge necessary to ensure that they aren’t just leaders, but Jewish leaders. This Guide will ensure that this is the case. Learning, and then leading, are the keys to Jewish student leadership. Lead on! Peleg Reshef WUJS Chairperson How to Use The Guide to Jewish Texts Many Jewish students, and even Jewish student leaders, don’t know the basics of Judaism and Jewish texts.
