  • Lulav-And-Etrog-Instructions.Pdf
    אֶּתְ רֹוג לּולָב LULAV AND ETROG: THE FOUR SPECIES What they are and what to do with them INTRODUCTION The commandment regarding the four species (of the lulav and etrog) is found in the Torah. After discussing the week-long Sukkot festival, specific instructions for how to celebrate the holiday are given. Leviticus 23:40 instructs: םּולְקַחְתֶּ לָכֶּם בַּיֹוםהָרִ אׁשֹון פְרִ י עֵץ הָדָרכַפֹּת תְ מָרִ ים וַעֲנַף עֵץ־עָבֹּת וְעַרְ בֵי־נָחַל ּושְ מַחְתֶּ ם לִפְ נֵי ה' אֱֹלהֵיכֶּם ׁשִבְ עַת יָמִ ים “On the first day you shall take the product of hadar trees, branches of palm trees, boughs of leafy trees, and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before Adonai your God seven days." These are the four species that form the lulav and etrog. The four species are waved in the synagogue as part of the service during the holiday of Sukkot. Traditionally, they are not waved on Shabbat because bringing these items to the synagogue would violate the prohibition against carrying. Some liberal synagogues do wave the lulav and etrog on Shabbat. While it is customary for each individual to have a lulav and etrog, many synagogues leave some sets in the synagogue sukkah for the use of their members. The lulav and etrog may also be waved at home. Below you will find some basic information about the lulav and etrog, reprinted with permission from The Jewish Catalogue: A Do-It-Yourself Kit, edited by Richard Siegel, Michael Strassfeld and Sharon Strassfeld, published by the Jewish Publication Society. HOW THE FOUR PARTS FIT TOGETHER The lulav is a single palm branch and occupies the central position in the grouping.

These guidelines are for preparing Chapters C-E of the Survey and related to all of the system’s components from the marine pipeline to offshore facilities for pressure reduction and treatment, the onshore valve, onshore pipelines, onshore treatment facility, INGL and any other infrastructures associated with these facilities. The purpose of these guidelines is to reduce to a minimum the possible environmental risks and environmental effects resulting from implementing the plan in the locations to be selected by the National Planning and Building Board, and based on the EIS submitted regarding the alternatives (Chapters A-B). It should be noted that this project is unique in that is a detailed NOP on the basis of which building permits can be issued, but without any specific developer behind it. Therefore the Survey was written in broad terms and is aimed at defining an “environmental performance framework” that will help advance the move the permits forward with the certainty that no damage will be caused to the public or to the environment.

  • Beat It! the Ritual Of
    Beat It! The Ritual of H avatat A m vot Bradley ShavitArtson O ne of Judaism’s oddest rituals is that of beating the amvot (willow fronds) during the services for Hoshanah Rabbah, the final Hoi ha-Mo’ed day of Sukkot. While there is no explicit commandment in the Torah, the rab­ bis of the Mishnah and Talmud understand the ritual of the aravah to be d’o- raita} A ritual which was originally distinctive to the Temple, in which the aravot were laid by the sides of the altar and paraded around that altar on each day of Sukkot, its transfer and transformation to the synagogue (in which the aravah is no longer paraded, but beaten) leaves us with a series of unanswered questions: there is an ancient dispute about how it is to be performed (and where). Most perplexing of all, there is no persuasive explanation for why it is contemporary practice to beat the aravot against the floor. As anthropologist and folklorist Theodor Gaster notes: “so different a meaning is now read into it [the ritual of the willow] that its original purport can no longer be recog­ nized.”2 A similar admission of ignorance, from a more traditionally-religious source, affirms that “this custom of beating the aravah on the ground con­ tains profound esoteric significance, and only the Great of Israel merit the knowledge of those secrets. The uninitiated should intend merely to abide by the custom of the Prophets and the Sages of all the generations.”3 Why do we beat the willow? 1 See Sukkah 43b.

  • Lulav on Shabbat
    בס"ד Volume 8. Issue 35 Lulav on Shabbat The fourth perek lists the mitzvot performed during sukkot establishing Rosh Chodesh. The Tosfot Yom Tov stresses including the number of days that the mitzvah applies. The that the Gemara was referring to the times of the Beit first of these is the mitzvah of lulav; or more accurately the HaMikdash and that even though those people outside mitzvah of arbaat haminim (four species). According to Israel may have known how to calculate Rosh Chodesh, Torah law, the mitzvah of lulav is to be performed in the since they had to rely on it being fixed in Eretz Yisrael, Beit HaMikdash for the seven days of Sukkot (excluding they were considered as if they did not know. Such an Shimini Atzeret). Outside the Beit Hamikdash the mitzvah explanation however does not help the Bartenura due to to shake lulav was only for the first day. The Mishnah what appears to be an inconsistency between his however teaches that it is possible that the mitzvah would explanation here and his ruling regarding etrog stated apply in the Beit HaMikdash for either six or seven days of above.1 What then is our status nowadays with respect to sukkot depending on the year. If the first day of sukkot was establishing Rosh Chodesh? Shabbat, then the mitzvah was performed for seven days. If however the first day was not Shabbat, meaning that The Tosfot Yom Tov suggest that explanation of the Shabbat was on one of the remaining days of Sukkot, then Rambam should solve our difficulty whose ruling the the mitzvah was performed for six days with it not being Bartenura shares in the above two cases.

  • Moses Mendelssohn and the Jewish Historical Clock Disruptive Forces in Judaism of the 18Th Century by Chronologies of Rabbi Families
    Moses Mendelssohn and The Jewish Historical Clock Disruptive Forces in Judaism of the 18th Century by Chronologies of Rabbi Families To be given at the Conference of Jewish Genealogy in London 2001 By Michael Honey I have drawn nine diagrams by the method I call The Jewish Historical Clock. The genealogy of the Mendelssohn family is the tenth. I drew this specifically for this conference and talk. The diagram illustrates the intertwining of relationships of Rabbi families over the last 600 years. My own family genealogy is also illustrated. It is centred around the publishing of a Hebrew book 'Megale Amukot al Hatora' which was published in Lvov in 1795. The work of editing this book was done from a library in Brody of R. Efraim Zalman Margaliot. The book has ten testimonials and most of these Rabbis are shown with a green background for ease of identification. The Megale Amukot or Rabbi Nathan Nata Shpiro with his direct descendants in the 17th century are also highlighted with green backgrounds. The numbers shown in the yellow band are the estimated years when the individuals in that generation were born. For those who have not seen the diagrams of The Jewish Historical Clock before, let me briefly explain what they are. The Jewish Historical Clock is a system for drawing family trees ow e-drmanfly 1 I will describe to you the linkage of the Mendelssohn family branch to the network of orthodox rabbis. Moses Mendelssohn 1729-1786 was in his time the greatest Jewish philosopher. He was one of the first Jews to write in a modern language, German and thus opened the doors to Jewish emancipation so desired by the Jewish masses.

    EJIW Encyclopedia of Jews in the Islamic World 5 volumes including index Executive Editor: Norman A. Stillman Th e goal of the Encyclopedia of Jews in the Islamic World is to cover an area of Jewish history, religion, and culture which until now has lacked its own cohesive/discreet reference work. Th e Encyclopedia aims to fi ll the gap in academic reference literature on the Jews of Muslims lands particularly in the late medieval, early modern and modern periods. Th e Encyclopedia is planned as a four-volume bound edition containing approximately 2,750 entries and 1.5 million words. Entries will be organized alphabetically by lemma title (headword) for general ease of access and cross-referenced where appropriate. Additionally the Encyclopedia of Jews in the Islamic World will contain a special edition of the Index Islamicus with a sole focus on the Jews of Muslim lands.

  • Caucasian Phobias and the Rise of Antisemitism in the North Caucasus in the 1920S
    Th e Soviet and Post-Soviet Review 36 (2009) 42–57 brill.nl/spsr Caucasian Phobias and the Rise of Antisemitism in the North Caucasus in the 1920s Lyudmila Gatagova Institute of Russian History of the Russian Academy of Sciences Abstract Before 1917 the North Caucasus witnessed almost no Jewish pogroms. After the Revolution, traditional Armenophobia began to decline and was replaced by a growing Judeophobia. Th e fi rst victims of the increasing anti-Semitism were the Mountain Jews. In the summer of 1926, there was a massive pogrom of Mountain Jews in Makhachkala and there were simultaneous pogroms in several other localities. Keywords North Caucasus, Armenia, antisemitism, mountain Jews, Armenophobia, pogrom Th e North Caucasus was not part of the Pale of Settlement, and therefore the percentage of Jewish population in the region was very low even in the towns, where there were only an insignifi cant number of Jews, primarily merchants and artisans. European Jews began to appear in the territory only in the 19th century, the only exception being Dagestan, where the compact communities of Mountain Jews had lived since the early Middle Ages. As a consequence, prior to 1917, the North Caucasus had experienced neither anti-Jewish pogroms, nor antisemitism. In their stead, Armenophobia dominated virtu- ally the entire region. In the absence of a Jewish population, Jew-baiting was practically non-existent. Th e closest analogy was to be found in hostile attitudes to Armenians. 1 In a sense, in the North Caucasus, the Armenians substituted for Jews as an incarnation of evil. 1 ) E.H.

  • Yuhara When There Is a Halachic Imperative 1. If One Is Doing A
    Yuhara when there is a Halachic Imperative 1. If one is doing a certain practice because one got a certain pesak from one’s rav or because it is to fulfill the basic halacha, it isn’t considered yuhara even if it isn’t the minhag. 1 Nonetheless one can only do so with the intent for the mitzvah and not to be arrogant.2 For example, according to Rav Schachter, it isn’t yuhara to wear techelet in a place that the minhag is not to because the primary halacha requires it. 3 2. If it is accepted in your place that some people do this midat chasidut, then it isn’t considered yuhara. 4 3. If someone is known for his chasidut, then it isn’t yuhara to do so for the sake of heaven. 5 1. The Mordechai (Brachot n. 1) writes that since points out that today there's no yuhara to do this Rabbenu Tam held that if one said Shema after since some people have the minhag to do it. Plag Hamincha one fulfilled his obligation if one Chida (Chaim Shaal 1) and Shulchan Aruch does repeat it later it appears as yuhara. Bet Hamidot v. 1 p. 128 agree. However, Shvut Yakov Yosef 235:1 argues that it isn’t yuhara to repeat 2:44 argues that there is yuhara to wear Rabbenu Shema since according to many rishonim one Tam tefillin even if some people do it unless most didn't fulfill one's mitzvah. This is also his opinion do it.

  • HRW from IPA ISRAEL March 18 2020 ENG Revised
    Unofficial Translation from Hebrew to English by Human Rights Watch [on Official Israel Planning Administration, Senior Local Planning Division Letterhead] March 19, 2020 To Eric Goldstein Acting Director Middle East and North Africa Division Human Rights Watch Dear Sir, Re: Planning in the Arab communities of Jisr al-Zarqa, Ein Mahel and Qalansawa Ref: Your letter dated March 12, 2020. Your letter in reference has been forwarded to me. Prior to providing responses to your specific questions, I shall address the overall issue of planning and building in Arab communities in Israel and the claim made in your letter regarding Israeli policies that allegedly restrict and confine Arab villages. These remarks constitute a response to paragraph 2 of your letter as well. The Planning Administration has been investing a great deal of effort over a number of years in promoting a broad planning strategy to update master planning in Arab communities, including Druz and Bedouin communities, as an outcome of a number of targeted government resolutions. These government resolutions address multi-sector development, including, inter alia, strengthening and empowerment of local authorities; economic and employment development; development of infrastructure and social services, housing and public institutions, tourism, security, planning and more, under continuous government monitoring of implementation and spending of the generous budget allocated for this purpose. Of the 132 Arab communities, 119 have current master plans that have been approved, are in the approval process, or are in preparation. These plans cover some 96% of the total population of these communities. The plans form a planning framework that encompasses the entire area of the community and determines zoning distribution for the coming decades as well as future development trajectories (residential, employment, tourism, public buildings, open public spaces and more), and they are made in a process that includes public involvement and participation.
