  • Emor Kohanim – Agents of God Or Man?
    Emor Kohanim – Agents of God or Man? -Rabbi Moshe Pinchuk- Parahsat Emor is rife with questions. The Talmud lists eight passages that were related to Moshe upon the consecration of the Tabernacle, on the first of the month of Nissan. The appropriate place for these passages is in the parasha of Shemini, which opens with the dedication of the Tabernacle: “Eight sections were given forth on the day on which the Tabernacle was set up. They are: the section of the priests, the section of the Levites, the section of the ritually unclean, the section of the sending of the ritually unclean [out of the camp], the section commencing ‘After the death’…” Several of these passages are set forth in this week’s parasha, Emor: A. The section of the priests (kohanim): Rashi makes the following comment: “The section of the priests – “Speak to the kohanim,” which contains the laws of the kohanim. Because these laws were required that day in order for the kohanim to work in the Tabernacle, it was necessary for Hashem to convey them at that time.” According to Rashi, the “section of the priests” mentioned in the Talmud is the passage comprised of the first several verses of Parashat Emor. These verses set forth prohibitions relating to priestly ritual uncleanliness and marriage, as well as physical defects that disqualify a priest from working in the Tabernacle and the Temple. Why was this passage relocated from the parasha of Shemini to the beginning of Emor? B. The section of the ritually unclean: This section is identified as the passage beginning with the words “that they shall separate themselves from the holy [sacrifices] of the children of Israel.” This passage sets forth the laws of ritual cleanliness that pertain to the consumption of terumah (priestly contributions) and kodashim (holy sacrifices).

  • A Few Thoughts on Parashah Shemini (Leviticus 9:1-11:47) – Practicing Restraint
    A Few Thoughts on Parashah Shemini (Leviticus 9:1-11:47) – Practicing Restraint This week’s portion begins where Parashah Tzav, which we read the week of April 4, right before Pesach, ended. Moses dedicates the Mishkan – the Tent of Meeting, invests Aaron and his sons with priestly authority, and declares a week- long festival. It is now the 8th day of the festival and the final offerings are being performed with the entire community in attendance. Then disaster strikes: For whatever reason, Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu decide on their own to bring an offering of incense. But since they were not commanded to do this, but simply took it upon themselves, HaShem regards it as “eish zarah” – foreign, strange fire, consuming them in their own blaze. Aaron remains silent as Moses tells their cousins to carry their bodies by their tunics outside of the camp and orders the entire group to mourn. What follows is a list of new commands for the high priests, which include not drinking “intoxicating wine” before entering the Tent of Meeting. It is an eternal law, set in place to enable us to clearly distinguish between sacred and secular and between unclean (unfit for sacred use) and clean. And then we receive a detailed list of the animals we may eat and those we may not eat. It is significant that this comes as we finish Pesach with all its dietary restrains and reenter the world of chametz! Will we binge on our favorite junk food, or will we practice restraint? What is the underlying message in all of this? That there are limits to what we may do.

  • Walking with the Jewish Calendar
    4607-ZIG-Walking with JEWISH CALENDAR [cover]_Cover 8/17/10 3:47 PM Page 1 The Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies Walking with the Jewish Calendar Edited By Rabbi Bradley Shavit Artson ogb hfrsand vhfrsRachel Miriam Safman 4607-ZIG-WALKING WITH JEWISH CALENDAR-P_ZIG-Walking with 8/17/10 3:46 PM Page 43 SUKKOT, SHEMINI ATZERET, HOSHANA RABBAH, SIMCHAT TORAH RABBI JEFFREY L. RUBENSTEIN INTRODUCTION he festival of Sukkot (sometimes translated as “Booths” or “Tabernacles”) is one of the three pilgrimage festivals T(shalosh regalim). Celebrated for seven days, from the 15th to 21st of the Hebrew month of Tishrei, Sukkot is followed immediately by the festival of Shemini Atzeret (the “Eighth-day Assembly”), on the 22nd of Tishrei, thus creating an eight-day festival in all. In post-Talmudic times in the Diaspora, where the festivals were celebrated for an extra day, the second day of Shemini Atzeret, the 23rd of Tishrei, became known as “Simchat Torah” (“The Rejoicing for the Torah”) and developed a new festival identity. Like the other pilgrimage holidays, Pesach and Shavuot, Sukkot, includes both agricultural and historical dimensions, and the festival’s name can be explained with reference to either. The Torah connects the name “Sukkot” to the “booths” in which the Israelites dwelled throughout their desert sojourn: You shall live in sukkot seven days; all citizens in Israel shall live in sukkot, in order that future generations may know that I made the Israelite people live in sukkot when I brought them out of the land of Egypt; I am the Lord.1 As such the commandment to reside in booths links the festival to the historic exodus from Egypt and commemorates the experience of the Israelites as they wandered through the desert.

  • The Tribe Weekly Newsletter This Week's Parasha Is Shemini
    The Tribe Weekly Newsletter This week’s parasha is Shemini Shabbat Times in London Shabbat begins: 7.46pm Shabbat ends: 8.53pm This week’s Parasha (Weekly Torah Portion) is Shemini and refers to the day after Aharon (Aaron) and his sons had completed their inauguration, after which they assumed their duties. Many offerings were brought on the Mizbeach (Altar) and Aharon (Aaron) blessed the Jewish nation. The deaths of Nadav and Avihu, two of the four sons of Aharon (Aaron) are recorded at the very same time that fire came down from heaven to light the Mizbeach (Altar). Moshe (Moses) instructed Aharon (Aaron) and his two living sons, Elazar and Itamar to continue the service of the Mizbeach (Altar). (One of the very special qualities of Aharon - Aaron - was his love for peace. He would always go out of his way to seek a peaceful solution to every situation.) The basic laws of Kosher and non-Kosher animals, fish, birds and insects are written in this week’s Parasha (Weekly Torah Portion). Only animals with both completely split hooves and which also chew the cud are kosher and only fish with both fins and scales are kosher. All birds of prey are not kosher and the vast majority of insects are also forbidden to be eaten.

  • Spark2, the Tribe Weekly Parsha Activity Sheet for Children's Service
    Welcome to Spark2, the Tribe weekly parsha activity sheet for Children’s Service Leaders across the United Synagogue communities. Thank you for offering to run a service. The US is very proud of the numerous Children’s Services that are run every week across the UK and this would not happen without you. Spark2 gives you an overview of the weekly parsha, a song, activity or Dvar Torah linked to the parsha or important event that week. Every children’s service will be different, in terms of how many participants there are, their age range, its length and the varying abilities of the children. Please read through the document and find the activities that will best suit the needs of your group. It is advisable to read it before Shabbat in case there is some preparation that may be needed in advance. I hope you and the children at your service will benefit from Spark2. Please be in touch if you have any queries, feedback or if I can be of any help. With best wishes, Sharon Radley [email protected] Shemini Parsha Summary: The parsha opens with details of the priestly service. The kohanim – priests, gave a sin offering to repent for the people. Nadav and Avihu, the sons of Aharon, took a fire pan and placed incense in it, creating their own sacrifice and not following God’s instructions. Therefore they were punished by death The commandment is given to Aharon against drinking intoxicants e.g. wine. We learn about the laws of kashrut, what is permitted and forbidden to eat.
