  • 2013 / 2014 Performance Report
    2013 / 2014 Performance Report How is a program born? Much like any dream, it starts with the vision of a passionate individual, and comes into being through months and years of hard work. Strategic work to identify unfulfilled needs in relevant markets is followed by gauging feasibility. Next comes building strong programmatic content to answer those needs, as well as to advance the greater organizational mission. At the same time, there are partnerships to forge and resources to obtain. There are pilots to plan down to the last logistic, to evaluate, and to adjust accordingly. There are participants to keep in touch with; there are alliances to maintain. Often times, one or two individuals do several jobs for many years. They do it with a tremendous amount of enthusiasm and skill, because they believe in their “Why,” and because they are excellent at fulfilling the “What.” That is the magic of our people at The Jewish Agency for Israel, a microcosm of Jewish and Israeli Initiative and Inspiration. This is the story of our everyday visionaries, our employees, and the more than one million lives they touch through our programming every year. We dedicate this Annual Report to the best and the brightest: the dreamers and doers who sketch in their mind’s eye the many paths to the Jewish future, and ensure through relentless stewardship that these come alive, in living color. Our Vision: To ensure the future of a connected, committed, global Jewish People with a strong Israel at its center Our Mission: Inspire Jews throughout the world to

    Hasidic Judaism - Wikipedia, the freevisited encyclopedi ona 1/6/2015 Page 1 of 19 Hasidic Judaism From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Sephardic pronunciation: [ħasiˈdut]; Ashkenazic , תודיסח :Hasidic Judaism (from the Hebrew pronunciation: [χaˈsidus]), meaning "piety" (or "loving-kindness"), is a branch of Orthodox Judaism that promotes spirituality through the popularization and internalization of Jewish mysticism as the fundamental aspect of the faith. It was founded in 18th-century Eastern Europe by Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov as a reaction against overly legalistic Judaism. His example began the characteristic veneration of leadership in Hasidism as embodiments and intercessors of Divinity for the followers. [1] Contrary to this, Hasidic teachings cherished the sincerity and concealed holiness of the unlettered common folk, and their equality with the scholarly elite. The emphasis on the Immanent Divine presence in everything gave new value to prayer and deeds of kindness, alongside rabbinical supremacy of study, and replaced historical mystical (kabbalistic) and ethical (musar) asceticism and admonishment with Simcha, encouragement, and daily fervor.[2] Hasidism comprises part of contemporary Haredi Judaism, alongside the previous Talmudic Lithuanian-Yeshiva approach and the Sephardi and Mizrahi traditions. Its charismatic mysticism has inspired non-Orthodox Neo-Hasidic thinkers and influenced wider modern Jewish denominations, while its scholarly thought has interested contemporary academic study. Each Hasidic Jews praying in the Hasidic dynasty follows its own principles; thus, Hasidic Judaism is not one movement but a synagogue on Yom Kippur, by collection of separate groups with some commonality. There are approximately 30 larger Hasidic Maurycy Gottlieb groups, and several hundred smaller groups. Though there is no one version of Hasidism, individual Hasidic groups often share with each other underlying philosophy, worship practices, dress (borrowed from local cultures), and songs (borrowed from local cultures).

  • Torah Portion Summary
    PARASHAT BERESHEIT - BIRKAT HAHODESH October 6, 2007 – 24 Tishrei 5768 Annual: Genesis 1:1 – 6:8 (Etz Hayim, p. 3; Hertz p. 2) Triennial Cycle: Genesis 1:1 – 2:3 (Etz Hayim, p. 3; Hertz p. 2) Haftarah: Isaiah 42:5 – 43:10 (Etz Hayim, p. 36; Hertz p. 21) Prepared by Rabbi Joyce Newmark Teaneck, New Jersey Torah Portion Summary The Torah begins with God’s creation of the world – light, heaven and earth, the oceans and dry land, the heavenly bodies, plants, animals, and finally the first human beings – in six days. God then blesses the seventh day, Shabbat, the day of rest. The human beings are placed in the Garden of Eden “to till it and tend it,” but when Adam and Eve disobey God’s commandment and eat the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil they are expelled from the Garden. Eve gives birth to two sons. When they are grown Cain, the elder, kills his brother, Abel, and is punished by God. Adam and Eve have a third son, Seth, and the Torah relates the 10 generations from Adam to Noah. The parasha concludes with God’s sorrow over human wickedness. 1. Does "Torah" Mean "Law"? When God began to create heaven and earth – the earth being unformed and void, with darkness over the surface of the deep and a wind from God sweeping over the water – God said “let there be light,” and there was light. (Bereisheit 1:1-3) A. Rabbi Yitzhak said: It was only necessary to begin the Torah with “This month shall mark for you...” (Shemot 12:2), for this is the first mitzvah about which Israel was commanded.

  • Hungary 2013 Human Rights Report
    HUNGARY 2013 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Hungary is a multi-party parliamentary democracy. The unicameral National Assembly (parliament) exercises legislative authority. Parliament elects the president (the head of state) every five years. The president appoints a prime minister from the majority party or coalition following national elections every four years. In 2012 a single round national election system replaced the previous two-round system. The most recent parliamentary elections (in 2010) were assessed as free and fair. The conservative Fidesz-Christian Democrat coalition won a two-thirds parliamentary majority. Fidesz’s prime ministerial candidate, Viktor Orban, took office in 2010. Authorities maintained effective control over security forces. There were reports that security forces committed human rights abuses. Among the most important human rights problems during the year were societal discrimination and exclusion of the Roma (also known as Romani), and anti-Semitism. Discrimination continued to significantly limit Roma access to education, employment, health care, and social services. The government continued to use its two-thirds parliamentary majority to implement constitutional reform. It adopted the Fourth and the Fifth Amendments to the Fundamental Law (constitution). The Fourth Amendment in particular attracted intense international criticism and further reinforced concerns that checks and balances were eroding. Human rights NGOs stressed that political liberties and their guarantees have been subject to systematic curtailment in the past three years and that the Fourth Amendment was a new component of this process. The Fifth Amendment partially responded to international criticism, but concerns remained that provisions contained in the new legislation could undermine equal treatment of religious groups and media pluralism.

  • THE STATE of ISRAEL 70 YEARS of INDEPENDENCE - Building a Nation
    1 The Zionist General Council Session XXXVII/4 THE STATE OF ISRAEL 70 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE - Building a Nation October 2018 2 Plenary No. 1 - Opening of the Zionist General Council Session Eli Cohen opened the first session and thanked the members of the audit committee and praised the auditor and his team, who - in their attempt to reach a level of satisfaction, which all can find to be acceptable - see all the flaws and improvements. Rabbi Yehiel Wasserman was invited to the stage for a ceremony conferring honorary fellowships to various members for their activities in the Zionist movement and their significant contribution to shaping its path and activities. This year, thanks to the WZO’s extensive activity over the past decade, quite a few people will be receiving this status. Honorary fellows are highly motivated individuals who have devoted many years of their time to the Zionist movement and who are role models for the next generation. Rabbi Wasserman then thanked the members of the Committee for Honorary Fellows: Barbara Goldstein, Silvio Joskowicz, Dalia Levy, Karma Cohen, Hernan Felman, Jacques Kupfer and Nava Avissar, the committee’s coordinator, for their dedicated work. Honorary Fellows: Mrs. Ana Marlene Starec – Mrs. Starec has been active in the Zionist movement for the past 54 years. She has been serving as Honorary President of WIZO for many years now and is also engaged in advocacy activities for Israel in the Diaspora in general, and with the Jewish communities of Brazil, in particular. Her human rights activities earned her a medal from the state of Rio de Janeiro, and she has also received a medal from the French Senate for her activities for humanity.
