It was an 18-year-old. He was uncon- scious, the caller said; he drank too much at a shul party and was breathing very slowly. Past the edge of Orthodoxy? The paramedic, the fi rst on the scene, con- centrated on keeping the patient’s airway open, provided oxygen and started an IV to administer fl uids. Other Hatzalah members arrived with an ambulance, and prepared to transport their patient to a hospital. Midway through the ride, the boy regained conscious- ness and started fi ghting with the ambulance crew, even managing to bite one man. The team was forced to tie him down until they arrived at the hospital. That was the fi rst call; dozens more, many just like that one, kept the paramedic and his Photo illustration by Christina Daly fellow volunteers out until nearly sunrise.

Also present were the souls of all Jews of all generations. Together we heard G-d proclaim the Ten Commandments and together we proclaimed “We will do and we will Listen”. The Talmud relates that when Moses heard G-d’s voice in the Sanctuary, a miraculous phenomenon occurred. Although the Divine voice was so loud as to be audible far beyond the confines of the Sanctuary, the sound was miraculously cut off at the Sanctuary entrance and went no further. Moshe was compelled to enter the Sanctuary in order to hear it. The Chassidic commentaries explain why it was necessary for the voice of G-d to be cut off at the Sanctuary entrance and go no further: It is G-d’s desire that Man serve Him out of free choice, and that “G-d’s voice”-His call, message and teaching-be brought into the world by man’s service. The “voice of G-d” is a revelation of G-d. A place which the Almighty sets aside as an established location for repeated revelations of G-dliness, a place where His voice is heard again and again, is a place possessing a higher order of sanctity.

  • Dictatorships & Double Standards
    8/10/2021 Dictatorships & Double Standards - Jeane J. Kirkpatrick, Commentary Magazine NOVEMBER 1979 FEATURED Dictatorships & Double Standards The Classic Essay That Shaped Reagan's Foreign Policy by Jeane J. Kirkpatrick he failure of the Carter administration’s foreign policy is now clear to everyone except its architects, and T even they must entertain private doubts, from time to time, about a policy whose crowning achievement has been to lay the groundwork for a transfer of the Panama Canal from the United States to a swaggering Latin dictator of Castroite bent. In the thirty-odd months since the inauguration of Jimmy Carter as President there has occurred a dramatic Soviet military buildup, matched by the stagnation of American armed forces, and a dramatic extension of Soviet influence in the Horn of Africa, Afghanistan, Southern Africa, and the Caribbean, matched by a declining American position in all these areas. The U.S. has never tried so hard and failed so utterly to make and keep friends in the Third World. As if this were not bad enough, in the current year the United States has suffered two other major blows–in Iran and Nicaragua–of large and strategic significance. In each country, the Carter administration not only failed to prevent the undesired outcome, it actively collaborated in the replacement of moderate autocrats friendly to https://www.commentary.org/articles/jeane-kirkpatrick/dictatorships-double-standards/ 1/38 8/10/2021 Dictatorships & Double Standards - Jeane J.

It is too soon to be certain about what kind of regime will ultimately emerge in either Iran or Nicaragua, but accumulating evidence suggests that things are as likely to get worse as to get better in both countries.

  • The Keneder Adler and Yiddish Community Life in Montreal, 1944 116 Rebecca Margolis / the Keneder Adler and Yiddish Community Life in Montreal, 1944
    Canadian Jewish Studies / Études juives canadiennes, vol. 27, 2019 115 Rebecca Margolis The Keneder Adler and Yiddish community life in Montreal, 1944 116 Rebecca Margolis / The Keneder Adler and Yiddish community life in Montreal, 1944 Rabbi Pinchas Hirschprung became a towering figure in the Montreal Jewish community during a time when Yiddish functioned as the Jewish lingua franca. In 1944, The Keneder Adler both serialized his memoir, Fun Natsishen Yomertol: Zikhroynes fun a Polit (From the Nazi Vale of Tears: Memoirs of a Refugee) and printed it in book form. This study offers a snapshot of this rapidly changing community of 1944 through a close study of its newspaper, The Keneder Adler, including coverage of the liberation of the Nazi death camps, community responses, and new local community educational initiatives. Le rabbin Pinchas Hirschprung est devenu un personnage essentielle dans la communauté juive montréalaise à l’époque où le yiddish fonctionnait comme lingua franca juive. En 1944, le Keneder Adler sérialisait ses mémoires Fun natsishen yomertol: Zikhroynes fun a Polit (dans la vallée de larmes des nazis: mémoires d’un réfugié) et l’imprimait sous forme de livre. Cette étude offre un aperçu de cette communauté de 1944 alors en pleine mutation grâce à une étude approfondie de son journal, le Keneder Adler, y compris son reportage de la libération des camps de mort nazis, des réponses communautaires, et de nouvelles initiatives d’éducation communautaire locale. Rabbi Pinchas Hirschprung became a towering figure in the Montreal Jewish community during a time when Yiddish functioned as the Jewish lingua franca, before the polarization between fray and frum, secular and Haredi.

  • Halakhic Process 25 – Open Orthodoxy Sources
    Halakhic Process Open Orthodoxy I. The Values of Open Orthodoxy 1. R. Avi Weiss – From Spiritual Activism Perhaps the most fundamental principle in Judaism is that every person is created in the image of God (Gen. 1:27). Just as God gives and cares, so too do we – in the spirit of imitation Dei, "imitating god" – have the natural capacity to be giving and caring. In utilizing this capability, we reflect how God works through people. It is these spiritual underpinnings that are so crucial in carrying out political activism in the moral and ethical realms. The challenge for activists is to ignite the divine spark present in the human spirit and thereby impel people to do good for others. (P. XVIII) 2. R. Avi Weiss – From Women at Prayer A second area of development, concerns the view of Rav Yosef Dov Halevi Soloveitchik zt"l. In a recent article in Tradition by Rabbis Aryeh and Dov Frimer, they concluded that while the Rav did not criticize these groups from a technical halakhic perspective, he had serious public policy concerns about them. The Rav himself, always encouraged me and my colleagues in the rabbinate to pasken for our respective communities on these matters, for he realized that it is the individual Rav who has the responsibility to decide what is best for his community, as he often knows what is best for his constituency. This was the position of Rav Moshe Feinstein, as his grandson Rabbi Mordechai Tendler confirmed to me about two years ago. In any event, as Rav Aaron Soloveitchik has pointed out, public policy can be fluid, and what was a bad policy years ago might now be beneficial, or the contrary.

  • Never Again Education Act (H.R
    April 8, 2019 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 Dear Representative: We, the more than 300 undersigned organizations and institutions, representing millions of Americans from every state in the Union, support the Never Again Education Act (H.R. 943) and strongly encourage you to cosponsor the bill. This important bipartisan legislation uses public funding and private donations in a classic public-private partnership to provide teachers with the resources and training they need to teach children the important lessons of the Holocaust and the consequences of bigotry and hate. As organizations that support Holocaust education as a vital part of our children’s learning experience, we are proud to support this bill that ensures more middle schools and high schools will have the opportunity to educate their students about the Holocaust. We face a stark contrast today: As the number of living Holocaust survivors and eyewitnesses dwindles, Holocaust denial and ignorance are becoming much more prevalent. Now, it is more important than ever that survivor stories be told to audiences around the globe. Unfortunately, far too many students in the United States grow up without basic knowledge of the events of the Holocaust. A survey released in April 2018 by the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany shows that Americans are forgetting about the Holocaust, or are completely unaware it occurred. For instance, 49 percent of millennials cannot name a single concentration camp. Thirty-one percent of Americans believe that two million or fewer Jews were killed in the Holocaust, even though six million Jews and millions of others perished.
