May I use grape juice for the Four Cups at the Seder? Second Aliyah: (35:34) What was the difference between Betzalel and Oholiav by way of their imbued spirit of Hashem and wisdom? For the second, third and fourth cup, wine is preferable because it Third Aliyah: (37:29) Why is the manufacturing of the and the incense interrupted is considered more prestigious, and because its alcohol is said to by the manufacture of the anointing oil? bring joy. However, the exclusion of grape juice as "not Fourth Aliyah: (38:1) Why did Betzalel build the regular altar after the incense altar, especially if prestigious" is uncertain. Further, Rambam writes that one should the regular altar was commanded to be built first (in 27:1)? use a drink that is "sweet to him." Therefore, one who has Fifth Aliyah: (39:21) Why couldn’t the Choshen move from off the Ephod? difficulty tolerating wine may use grape juice. Sixth Aliyah: (39:32) Why does the Torah have to make a point of saying that they finished all the work? There is an extra reason to use wine for the first cup, because this Seventh Aliyah: (40:1) Why does the Torah make a point of saying that the Mishkan needed to cup also fulfills the of kiddush, and some rule that grape be built on 1 Nissan both here and again in 40:17? juice is not acceptable for the evening kiddush. Kiddush requires wine which is eligible for pouring on the mizbeiach in the Beis YOUNG PROFFESIONALS CORNER haMikdash, and there are grounds for disqualifying grape juice The Young Professionals Kiddush will take place this week, after the Rabbi is finished from that role. However, many halachic authorities still state that speaking, in the Moshe and Mania Gruda Bais Medrash on the first floor! one who cannot use wine may use grape juice for kiddush, and therefore for the first cup. This week's kiddush is co‐sponsored by:  Joel & Erin Silverman in honour of Isaac and Evan's birthdays It would be ideal to mix in a little bit of wine, sufficient to give the  Ma'ayan and Amiel Fried in memory of Tanta Sarah (Sarah Leah Carman wine an alcoholic "edge", to mitigate some of the halachic Fried z"l). May her neshama have an aliyah! Love always concerns.

Rabbi Elimelech Goldberg (lovingly known by thousands of children as Rabbi G.), is the founder and director of Kids Kicking Cancer, a nonprofit organization that teaches martial arts to children battling cancer as well as to those facing other serious challenges in their lives. The therapy techniques he has developed, using meditation and breathing exercises, have been very successful in decreasing the pain of paediatric patients. Rabbi Goldberg began the program in 1999, nearly eighteen years after losing his first child to leukemia. He holds a First Degree Black Belt in the Korean art of Choi Kwang Do as well as a clinical assistant professorship in paediatrics at the Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit.

Rabbi Goldberg received his rabbinical ordination from Yeshiva University, where he also graduated summa cum laude. He served for twenty years as a pulpit rabbi and police chaplain in Southfield, Michigan. He now lectures around the world on the subjects of paediatric pain and end of life care as well as issues of spirituality and health, and has expanded Kids Kicking Cancer to Canada, Italy, and Israel.

Rabbi G. and his wife, Ruthie, have two married children and eight grandchildren.
