Just by that it gives the stamp of veracity to what it relates… Were they without passion, without internal struggle, their virtues would seem to us the outcome of some higher nature… no model that we could hope to emulate.

We can also see the connection beteen childlessness and prayer in the humash; for example, hen itha daened prayed due to this problem (ereishis 25:21. hile itha had a temporary bout of barrenness, it as Araham Ainu ho had the most notable association ith childlessness. t as a problem that he repeatedly took up ith Hashem. “hat can you give me, being that I go childless?” (ibid. 152. “Then Abram said, ‘See, to me you have given no offspring and see, my steward inherits me’” (15:3). Rashi suggests one anser, from the emorah, as to hy Araham in particular was so long afflicted by this problem. hen Hashem commanded Araham to leae his birthplace for retz anaan (“Lech lecha”), He promised that there “ will mae of you a great nation” (Ber. 122, indicating that “here, you do not merit having children” Rosh Hashanah 16b). his suggests that Avraham needed to correct himself in some manner, hether simply by moving to retz anaan or by dealing ith some deeper issue.

  • Preparing a Dvar Torah
    PREPARING A DVAR TORAH GUIDELINES AND RESOURCES Preparing a dvar Torah 1 Preparing a dvar Torah 2 Preparing a dvar Torah 1 MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE ASKED TO GIVE a dvar Torah don't know where to begin. Below are some simple guidelines and instructions. It is difficult to provide a universal recipe because there are many different divrei Torah models depending on the individual, the context, the intended audience and the weekly portion that they are dealing with! However, regardless of content, and notwithstanding differences in format and length, all divrei Torah share some common features and require similar preparations. The process is really quite simple- although the actual implementation is not always so easy. The steps are as follows: Step One: Understand what a dvar Torah is Step Two: Choose an issue or topic (and how to find one) Step Three: Research commentators to explore possible solutions Step Four: Organize your thoughts into a coherent presentation 1Dvar Torah: literallly, 'a word of Torah.' Because dvar means 'a word of...' (in the construct form), please don't use the word dvar without its necessary connected direct object: Torah. Instead, you can use the word drash, which means a short, interpretive exposition. Preparing a dvar Torah 3 INTRO First clarify what kind of dvar Torah are you preparing. Here are three common types: 1. Some shuls / minyanim have a member present a dvar Torah in lieu of a sermon. This is usually frontal (ie. no congregational response is expected) and may be fifteen to twenty minutes long. 2. Other shuls / minyanim have a member present a dvar Torah as a jumping off point for a discussion.

  • Swift Censer
    Why incense? FIVE REASONS FROM SCRIPTURE Incense was a regular part of the worship of Lutherans in the early Reformation, which probably shouldn’t be surprising. They were used to it, there was no need to reject it, and the Bible provides clear reasons for using it. So what does the Bible say about incense? It has a long history. Holy The use of incense for the worship of the One True God extends from the Old Testament into the New. See, for instance, Ex. 30:7-8: “And Aaron shall burn fragrant incense on it [the altar]. Every SMOKE morning when he dresses the lamps he shall burn it, and when Aaron sets up the lamps at twilight, he shall burn it, a regular incense offering before the Lord throughout your generations.” See also 2 Chron. 13:11; Phil. 4:18. The Bible speaks highly of it. It signals God’s presence. Luther recommended it. Why not Throughout Scripture, incense marks the presence of the One True God. Ex. 40:34: “Then the cloud revive it here? covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.” See also Is. 6; Matt. 2:11 You may have noticed a recent addition in our altar area—an ornate (the Magi offer frankincense and myrrh to the baby Jesus) and John 19:39 (Nicodemus brings myrrh brass pole standing roughly 5’ tall, with chains hanging from it, holding a and aloes for Christ’s burial). tear-shaped object. It’s a symbol of atonement. Maybe you’ve noticed the little “Aladdin’s lamp” there, too.

AN “ODOR OF SANCTITY”: THE ICONOGRAPHY, MAGIC, AND RITUAL OF EGYPTIAN INCENSE Elliott Wise ragrance has permeated the land and culture of Egypt for millennia. Early Fgraves dug into the hot sand still contain traces of resin, sweet-smelling lotus flowers blossom along the Nile, Coptic priests swing censers to purify their altars, and modern perfumeries export all over the world.1 The numerous reliefs and papyri depicting fumigation ceremonies attest to the central role incense played in ancient Egypt. Art and ceremonies reverenced it as the embodi- ment of life and an aromatic manifestation of the gods. The pharaohs cultivated incense trees and imported expensive resins from the land of Punt to satisfy the needs of Egypt’s prolific temples and tombs. The rise of Christianity in the first century ce temporarily censored incense, but before long Orthodox clerics began celebrating the liturgy in clouds of fragrant smoke.

  • A Multi-Method Investigation of Circadian Rhythms, Sleep, And
    Running Head: BIOLOGICAL RHYTHMS & REWARD MOTIVATION A Multi-Method Investigation of Circadian Rhythms, Sleep, and Affective States: Characterising Modulation, Imaging Reward Mechanisms, and Improving Clinical Measurement Jamie E. M. Byrne Centre for Mental Health, Faculty of Health, Arts, and Design, Swinburne University of Technology Submitted in the year of 2018 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Clinical Psychology) qualification at Swinburne University of Technology BIOLOGICAL RHYTHMS & REWARD MOTIVATION ii Abstract The relationship between biological rhythms (circadian and sleep-wake processes) and reward motivation is proposed to be important, with circadian modulation of reward motivation one pathway in this relationship. To date, the relationship between biological rhythms and reward motivation has largely been investigated in animal studies, with limited exploration of this important interaction in humans. The aim of this project was to incrementally advance understanding of the relationship between biological rhythms and reward motivation in humans. To do this, the relationship between biological rhythms and reward motivation was reviewed (Study 1) and psychometrically examined (Study 2). Study 2 psychometrically quantified the separation of sleep quality, diurnal preference, and mood leading to the generation and initial psychometric testing of a new self-report measure of sleep quality, circadian functioning and depressed mood. The remaining three studies focused on the circadian component of biological rhythms, investigating critical aspects of a putative circadian modulation of reward motivation. Study 3 examined diurnal variation in three psychological components of reward. Findings indicated that unconscious “wanting” and conscious wanting of rewards exhibited diurnal variation peaking at 14:00h with diurnal variation in conscious liking and learning not fitting a waveform peaking at 14:00h.

  • Yeshivat Har Etzion Virtual Beit Midrash Project(Vbm)
    Yeshivat Har Etzion Israel Koschitzky Virtual Beit Midrash ([email protected]) The command concerning the construction of the Mishkan is contained in one lengthy monologue that starts at the beginning The Incense Altar of parashat Teruma (25:1-2): "And God spoke to Moshe saying, Speak to Bnei Yisrael that they take me a contribution..." Where By Rav Elchanan Samet does this monologue end? At the conclusion of the section regarding the daily sacrifice we have a pronounced and festive conclusion to all the commands concerning the construction of the Mishkan (29:43-46): A. WHY IS IT MENTIONED LAST? "I shall meet there with Bnei Yisrael and it shall be sanctified with My glory, and I shall sanctify the Tent of Meeting... and I shall dwell Last week we examined the Ark, the first vessel listed in the amongst Bnei Yisrael and shall be unto them commands to build the Mishkan. This week we will study the a God, and they will know that I am the Lord last - the incense altar (Shemot 30:1-10). (The basin, which we their God Who has taken them out of the land are commanded to build at the beginning of parashat Ki Tisa, is of Egypt to dwell among them; I am the Lord not a vessel that is actually used in the Temple service; rather, it their God." is allows the Kohanim to prepare for the actual service.) This very phenomenon - the fact that the incense altar is the last vessel which we are commanded to make - is what will concern us.

  • Double Edged Sword of Incense
    Double edged sword of Ketores/Incense In April 1992, Vendyl Jones and his team discovered 600 kilos of “reddish-brown organic substance” in a carefully sealed rock silo in another part of the Qumran cave complex. Subsequent analysis determined that this substance contained traces of at least eight of the eleven spices that were used in the manufacture of the ketoret. In response to COVID-19: The Sefardi prayer Nusah lists to say the Incense offering three times daily: once during the morning Korbanot, once before Aleynu LeShabayah, and once before the Minhah prayer. In some of the more Kabbalistic-oriented Siddurim, a verse from our portion (43:11) is added to add extra spiritual strength and zest to the reading. What follows is the conclusion of the incense offering and the verse with the Holy Names imbedded inside. “It was taught: Bar Kappara says: Once in sixty or seventy years, half [the required annual amount of ketoret] came from the accumulated surpluses [left over from the three measures set aside each year for Yom Kippur]. Bar Kappara also taught: Had even a minuscule amount of [bee or fruit] honey been added to the ketoret, no one could have resisted [the pleasantness of] its fragrance. Why, then, was no honey blended into it? Because the Torah stated: “You may not burn any leaven or honey as a fire offering to God” (Leviticus 2:11). 1 “The God of [all heavenly and terrestrial] hosts is with us—the God of Yaacov is our assurance [and inspiration] forever, selah! O God of hosts, happy is the man who trusts only in You! O God save us! O King answer us on the day we call! May the offering of Yehudah and Yerushalayim be pleasing to God as in olden days and ancient years.

  • DEQ Issued a Public Notice on May 19, 2017 Requesting Public Comment on DEQ's Draft Air Quality Permit for American Petroleum Environmental Services, Inc
    American Petroleum Environmental Services Air Contaminant Discharge Permit 26-3021 Response to Comments DEQ issued a public notice on May 19, 2017 requesting public comment on DEQ's draft air quality permit for American Petroleum Environmental Services, Inc. DEQ mailed notice to property owners within at least one mile of the facility, and included additional zip codes and neighborhood associations where DEQ anticipated there would be interest. DEQ also provided public notice through publication m two local newspapers, posting of the notice on DEQ's website, and through email; subscribers ofDEQ's email notification list received a message about the proposed permit issuance and the chance to comment. The comment period closed at 5 p.m. on July 3, 2017. The following response to comments combines like topics and comments to minimize duplicates. Comments are paraphrased to address the main point and are not included verbatim. All written and oral (transcribed) comments are included as an addendum to this document. Comments relating to other facilities are not addressed by the responses below. Some of the following comments are verbatim, combined, or paraphrased with similar comments to reduce redundancy. 1. Comment The DEQ should issue American Petroleum Environmental Services (APES) an immediate Cease and Desist order (ORS 468.115(1)) requiring them to shut down until they can reduce emissions below levels that may be harmful to the residents in the area. DEQ should shut the facility down using the authority in OAR 340-216-0082 (permit revocation). DEQ should deny the permit renewal until all neighborhood concerns are met. DEQ response In order to issue a cease and desist order under Oregon Revised Stahite (ORS) 468.115, DEQ would need to determine that air pollution from APES was causing "an imminent and substantial endangerment to the health of persons," and the Governor would need to direct DEQ to enter such an order.
