Rav Shimshon Refuel Hirsch perfect ...simply because G-d commanded us to do so." comments that only at the giving of the very first Law which Israel received, the command of the Pesach offering, do we find the order written in similar terms ,to He continues to ask " Why does the Torah say Kedoshim T'hihyu?" “You should be announce the Law to the whole community. The reason for this is because this holy...”. He answers that one should not think that kedoshim t'hihyu refers solely to admonition, "holy shall you be “ refers to the highest degree of moral human perfection forbidden sexual relations due to its juxtaposition to the laws at the end of Acharei Mot and every individual needs to be included in this call to very height of absolute morality. but this phrase refers to each of the Ten Utterances, This means the Jewish people should be holy and sanctify themselves in all matters. Rabbi M Miller suggests that Moshe had to speak to the whole congregation, to each one individually, because in the question of self restraint even from pleasures generally The parsha of Kedoshim follows the sedras from Vaiyikra to Acharei Mot.

  • I. Maot Chitim II. Ta'anit Bechorim, Fast of the Firstborns III. Chametz
    To The Brandeis Community, Many of us have fond memories of preparing for the holiday of Pesach (Passover), and our family's celebration of the holiday.

  • TORAH INSIGHTS for a MODERN AGE by DAVID ROTENBERG
    TORAH INSIGHTS FOR A MODERN AGE By DAVID ROTENBERG Integrated Studies Final Project Essay (MAIS 700) submitted to Dr. Mike Gismondi in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts – Integrated Studies Athabasca, Alberta August, 2013 Table of Contents Abstract ………………………………………………………………………….. 3 Introduction ……………………………………………………………………... 5 Essay One: Joseph vs. George – A Modern Look at Faith ………………….. 11 Essay Two: What’s in a Name? ……………………………………………….. 18 Essay Three: Talk to Strangers ………………………………………………... 23 Conclusion ……………………………………………………………………… 29 References ………………………………………………………………………. 34 2 ABSTRACT Today’s Jewish community features very different demographics from previous generations’ due to large sections of the population being unaffiliated, non-observant, or “Modern Orthodox”. As a result, any efforts to reconnect the unaffiliated and/or reach these other segments of the community for spiritual direction and Torah education must be targeted in new strategic ways. This project employs both the scriptural and comedic knowledge of its author, Rabbi David Rotenberg, a semi-professional stand-up comic, to develop contemporary Torah insights targeted at a modern audience. The project focuses on lessons applicable to three of the 54 weekly portions of the Chumash (Five Books of Moses), Vayigash, Kedoshim, and Emor, each developed as an independent essay, although numerous additional relevant sources are also discussed. Each essay establishes an accepted understanding of the relevant Torah concepts, rooted in the text and traditional commentaries. This conventional thinking is then challenged with original questions, and comedic sources are introduced as a form of unorthodox commentary. The essays conclude by demonstrating a connection and revealing the newly-inspired message. 3 Through the substantive content yielded by the integration of humour sources with Biblical content, the original query – whether new Torah insights could be developed to appeal to a modern audience – can be answered in the affirmative.

  • Hundreds of Thousands Celebrate 13Th Siyum Hashas
    Hundreds of Thousands Celebrate 13th Siyum HaShas January 2, 2020 The 13th Global Siyum HaShas of Daf Yomi was held on Wednesday, January 1, with the participation of hundreds of thousands of people. The Siyum HaShas – literally “the completion of the Six Orders [of the Talmud]” – is the celebration of the completion of the Daf Yomi program, a seven-and-a-half-year cycle of learning one folio page of the Talmud daily, with 2,711 pages of the Babylonian Talmud being covered in sequence. The idea of Jews all across the world studying the same page of Talmud each day, with the goal of completing the entire Talmud, was presented at the First World Congress of Agudath Israel in Vienna on August 16, 1923 by Rabbi Meir Shapiro. His idea was greeted enthusiastically, including by many Jewish leaders in Europe and America, and the first cycle of Daf Yomi began on the first day of the holiday of Rosh Hashanah that year, September 11, 1923. Ever since then, Jews participating in the program cover one page a day, studying the text by themselves, with a group, or by listening to a lecture. A typical daily Daf Yomi lecture takes one hour. Daf Yomi unifies the Jewish people, allowing Jews across the world and from any background to study the very same text each day, providing a commonality of purpose and injecting Jewish pride in its adherents. The Talmud is written largely in Aramaic, and thus a translation of the Talmud, specifically the popular ArtScroll Schottenstein Edition of the Babylonian Talmud, an English-language and Hebrew-language translation and elucidation, has been credited with significantly increasing the number of participants in the Daf Yomi program.

  • The Jewish People
    Preface AT THE PROSPECT OF PUBLICATION of this, my first book, my heart is filled with joy and gratitude. I have been sustained and nurtured by other people and have been shaped by their models, influence, and help. This book, in particular, reflects the ongoing impact of others on me. I would like in this small way to acknowledge my debt of grati­ tude to them. This book bears the imprint of two people, above all. One is Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik, the master philosopher/poet of halacha (Jewish law) of our time. Even with the perspective of thirty-five years, it is hard to overstate the electrifying impact on me of the initial encounter with Rabbi Soloveitchik's model and mode of thinking. I was twenty years old, emotionally open and intellectually absorbent, on my maiden flight out of the warm, loving cocoon of the East European refugee yeshiva in which I had studied and been ordained. I had been raised to study and observe all the traditions and rules of halacha; Rabbi Soloveitchik opened my eyes to the patterns of meaning therein. In his analysis the halacha became more than the sum of its thousands of observances and details. It was a system by which to live humanly, a way to seize life whole, a confrontation with the dilemmas and anx­ ieties of existence. The details were the products of divine revelation and an ongoing historic confrontation, love affair, and partnership be- 7 8 PREFACE tween God and the Jewish people. Under the light of his illumination, every detail—even those that appeared obscure or mechanical— turned out to be an articulation of a psychological or moral state or an attempt to induce the individual to give deeply human responses to life situations.

  • Kedoshim Vayikra (Leviticus) 19:1 - 20:27
    Kedoshim VaYikra (Leviticus) 19:1 - 20:27 Parsha Kedoshim continues the transition that we have followed in this section of the book of VaYikra, from a work primarily directed toward the Kohanim, to one intended for the ordinary Israelite. The people of Israel were to be holy, because G-d is holy. That is the reason and the justification for a series of ethical, ritual and religious rules that comprise this and the following parshiyot in YaYikra. Whereas we might distinguish between the different types of Mitzvot, in Judaism they are all equal, and all equally binding. The people are to observe the commandments and the laws of the sacrifices. They are to provide for the poor and the stranger; leaving the edges of the fields unharvested and the fallen fruits of their vineyards ungleaned, so that the needy could come and gather food. One of the best-known and most beloved verses in the Torah is found in Kedoshim. “V’Ahavta L’rayecha Kamocha …You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (19:18). According to Rabbi Akiba, one of the greatest Rabbis of the period of the Mishnah, this is the greatest teaching in the entire Torah. Indeed, the idea that we all have responsibilities to all people, and the idea that there can be no service to G-d while simultaneously practicing cruelty to others, is one of Judaism’s greatest gifts to the world. Kedoshim warns against insulting the deaf or placing a stumbling block before the blind. Respect and deference must be shown for the elderly.

  • Orthodox by Design
    one Authoritative and Accessible the year 2005 was a big one for ArtScroll. It marked the completion of the seventy- third and final volume of their Talmud Bavli: The Schotten- stein Edition, a massive work of thirty- five thousand pages, involving over eighty rabbinic scholars for more than fifteen years, at a blistering produc- tion rate of one volume every nine weeks.1 No other publication has more definitively signaled ArtScroll’s ascent in the publishing world. Several other ArtScroll books have had a dramatic impact on the English- language Jewish public sphere, such as The Complete ArtScroll Siddur (their basic prayer book) and even their best- selling cookbook, Kosher by Design.2 But ArtScroll’s Talmud is unique in terms of the intellectual, symbolic, and financial resources at stake for a project of this magnitude, as well as its impact on the relationship of the publisher with its patrons, customers, critics, and even competing publishers.3 Let us recall here the status of the Babylonian Talmud as arguably the central text of Rabbinic Judaism. It consists of the written record of what is known in Jewish tradition as the Torah she be’al peh (the Oral Law), orig- inally transmitted to Moses on Mt. Sinai alongside the Torah she bi khtav (the Written Torah, i.e., the Hebrew Bible), and systematized by a long tradition of authoritative commentators.4 More than any other text in the Jewish tradition, it symbolizes the shift in ancient Israelite religion from a temple cult or ga nized around sacrificial practices to the religion of a 30 “people of the book,” living in diaspora, in the aftermath of the destruc- tion of the Temple at Jerusalem.
