It relates to us the tragic story of the deaths of the two older sons of FRIDAY Aharon, when they apparently willfully mishandled the obligatory incense offering in the Mishkan/Tabernacle. The Torah reading also details for us the list of animals, 6:05 pm: Mincha/Kabbalat Shabbat/Maariv birds and fish that may be consumed by Jews in accordance with the laws of dietary (Shema should be recited after 8:26 pm) kashrut. At first glance, there seems to be no connection between these two disparate SHABBAT subjects. Yet, we are certainly aware that Torah has to be understood and studied Parasha: Page 588 / Haftarah: Page 1168 on many different levels and that the Torah is not subject to a completely haphazard arrangement of its prose and content. So, at some deeper, below the Kiddush this week sponsored by the shul. surface level, there may be a connection between these two matters that find 7:15 am: Hashkama Minyan themselves lumped together in one section of the Torah.

Indeed, it is not only the experience of the ceremonies of the Chag that make them exciting. Rather, when we analyze, consider and discuss why we do what we do when we do it, we become more aware of the purposes of the Mitzvos and the holiday and become closer to Hashem in the process. In the days of old, the public shiurim of Yom Tov were a major part of the celebration. The give and take the part of the day for Hashem, it set a tone – חצי לה' enhanced not only the part of the day identified as the half of the day set aside for celebration in eating and enjoyment of a חצי לכם for the other half, the different nature. Meals could be enjoyed where conversation would surround “what the Rabbi spoke about” and expansion on those ideas would be shared and discussed with everyone present, each at his or her own level. Unfortunately, with the difficulties presented by the current COVID-19 pandemic, many might not be able to make it to Shul, many Rabbis might not be able to present the same Derashos and Shiurim to all the different minyanim under their auspices.

  • Maspidim Remember Klal Yisroel's Rebbe, the Novominsker Rebbe
    Maspidim Remember Klal Yisroel’s Rebbe, The Novominsker Rebbe April 29, 2020 See the recording of the azkarah below. By: Sandy Eller Harav Elya Brudny, Rosh Yeshiva, Mir Yeshiva and Chaver Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah 22 days later it still seems impossible to believe. As Klal Yisroel continues to mourn the loss of the Novominsker Rebbe, Rabbi Yaakov Perlow ztvk’l, Rosh Agudas Yisroel, chaverim of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah and family members offered deeply emotional divrei hesped for a leader who was a major guiding force for Torah Jewry in America for decades. With state and local laws still in effect prohibiting public gatherings, maspidim addressed an empty beis medrash at Yeshivas Novominsk, an audience of nearly 60,000 listening through teleconference and livestream as the Novominsker was remembered as Klal Yisroel’s Rebbe. Normally echoing with exuberant sounds oftalmidim learning Torah, the yeshiva’s stark emptiness was yet another painful reminder of the present eis tzarah that has devastated our community. Rabbi Zwiebel waiting at a safe social distance while others were speaking. Throughout the over two hour-long azkarah, Rabbi Perlow was lauded for his unwavering devotion to Klal Yisroel, somehow stretching the hours of each day so that he could immerse himself in his learning and still give his undivided attention to the many organizations and individuals who sought his guidance. In a pre-recorded segment, Rabbi Shmuel Kamenetsky, Rosh HaYeshiva, Talmudical Yeshiva of Philadelphia, described the Rebbe as a “yochid b’yisroel” who cared so deeply for others that their needs became his. No communal issue was deemed too large, too small, or beyond the Novominsker’s realm of expertise, his sage counsel steering Klal Yisroel through turbulent waters when communal institutions such asbris milah, shechitah and yeshiva curriculums were threatened by public officials.

Hakoras haTov to Hakadosh Baruch Hu for enabling us to reach this point in the Yeshiva’s existence. Hakoras haTov for all those that were involved in making this dinner happen. And a special Hakoras haTov to the Honorees. Without them- this Dinner would still be a dream. Yeshiva Gedola of Carteret was grown to epitomize the ideals and values of Yeshivas Ner Yisroel. On a personal level, Rabbi Brown shlit”a and myself were given the opportunity to develop by the Yeshiva. Our Rabbeim are the Hanhalas HaYeshiva. The Yeshiva of Carteret was born in the koselei Bais HaMedrash in Baltimore. From the very inception of the Yeshiva in Carteret, Ner Yisroel was involved. Every zman we discuss and receive direction from the Hanhallas haYeshiva. We are truly honored to have The Mashgiach, Rabbi Weisbord shlit”a joining us as we recognize Yeshivas Ner Yisroel’s role in building Torah in Carteret. R’ Eli Lazarowitz grew up in Far Rockaway with Rabbi Brown and myself. I had the honor of being his Chavrusa for many years in Yeshiva of Far Rockaway. His beautiful middos and acumen in learning made, and continue to make, a roshem on me. The first year of the Yeshiva, we had the zechus to have Eli daven for us on Yom Kippur.

  • The Flame of Torah Burning Brighter Than Ever As 500,000+ Inspired by Global Siyumei Hashas
    The Flame of Torah Burning Brighter Than Ever as 500,000+ Inspired by Global Siyumei HaShas January 26, 2020 Photo above: View of the Crowd at the London Siyum Hashas 2020. (Photo Credits for this photo: Dudy Braun) by Sandy Eller Amid all the planning, predictions and even prayers for the 13th Global Siyum Hashas, not a single member of the massive team that planned the worldwide celebration of limud haTorah ever expected things to turn out quite the way they did. Starting on December 16th in Melbourne, Australia and moving on days later to Mexico City, the Global Siyum HaShas of Daf Yomi began a month-long trek across the planet, igniting an unprecedented passion for Torah in every city, at every siyum. Throughout North America, Europe, Australia and Israel, well over 500,000 people participated in multiple siyumim and like the mountaintop flames in Mishnaic times that signaled the coming of Rosh Chodesh from one locale to another, the torch of Torah circled the globe, setting hearts and souls on fire. Rav Meir Shapiro’s vision of a daily commitment to learning bringing Klal Yisroel together came to life like never before at the makom Torah that he founded in Poland in 1930, with the Siyum HaShas returning on January 1st to its birthplace, Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin. Inscribing another memorable page in the annals of history on the same day were epic siyumim at MetLife Stadium and Barclays Center, with thousands more flocking to Daf Yomi celebrations in Jerusalem and other locations. In the days that followed, the flames of Torah blazed an impassioned trail from the Western Hemisphere eastward, each of the ebullient Siyumei HaShas transcending time and space as they united in-person participants with hundreds of thousands of livestream viewers under a banner of Torah that spanned both continents and generations.
