  • Remembering a Great Man – Rabbi Gunther Plaut on His Fifth Yahrzeit for the Jewish Ledger March 2017
    Remembering a Great Man – Rabbi Gunther Plaut On His Fifth Yahrzeit For The Jewish Ledger March 2017 I am writing these words calling to mind the fifth yahrzeit of Rabbi Gunther Plaut. He passed away in the winter of 2012. As someone who served as his Assistant Rabbi in Toronto for the six months before his retirement and then had the opportunity to watch him in “retirement” for the next five years, I remain in awe of my teacher. Rabbi Plaut was Rabbi Plaut. Although we live in an age of informality, I never called him by his first name, Gunther. Hardly anyone else did either. Why? Not because he insisted on the formal title, but because he was a man of such stature. He was a giant. A grand smile, boundless energy, and brilliance. He was Rabbi Plaut. In Toronto, when the Free Soviet Jewry movement was galvanizing world Jewry, Rabbi Plaut was the person who spoke at major rallies. When the PLO was at its terrorist peak, Plaut was one of the most fearless and outspoken defenders of Israel anywhere. When he “retired,” he became Vice-Chair of the Ontario Human Rights Commission. In keeping with his convictions, Rabbi Plaut was also the public leader who brought Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to Toronto for his first Canadian appearance in the mid 60’s. The Rabbi's life was in some sense quite charmed. He led congregations in Chicago and St. Paul before arriving in Toronto. While living in Minnesota, he became friendly with two locals who were destined to become national figures (much like him).

  • Download Booklet 100 Years Ago... Remembering World War One
    100 Years Ago… Remembering World War One A memorial to fallen soldiers at The New West End Synagogue. Similar memorials are at a number of other US communities and cemeteries. 100 Years Ago… Remembering World War One This booklet is dedicated to the memory of those who fell in World War One. 100 Years Ago... Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis 00 years ago, Europe stood on the cusp of a conflict of such frightening 1ferocity, that it would change the course of history. Much of the political landscape of our society is, to a large extent, a result of the Great War of 1914-1918, as World War One came to be known. The war began on 4 August 1914, which, as it does this year, coincided with Tisha B’Av. The Jewish world was also profoundly affected by the war, as articles in this booklet so movingly and poignantly describe. I commend the United Synagogue Living & Learning department, which, as part of its work provides educational materials for US communities and beyond, for producing this booklet. I hope it will provide readers with valuable insights into World War One and inspire us all to ennoble our lives today. Reading through this excellent booklet makes one shudder. We owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the valiant soldiers whose bravery paved the way for our free and peaceful society today. We owe much to those who, with remarkable tenacity, rebuilt families, communities and entire societies in the wake of the devastation. The Great War became known as “the war to end all wars”, such was its ferocity.

  • The Evolution of the Melbourne Beth Din Chaim Cowen Abstract This
    Cowen, C. “The Evolution of the Melbourne Beth Din”, Australian Journal of Jewish Studies XXXIII (2020): 193-216 The Evolution of the Melbourne Beth Din Chaim Cowen Abstract This article commences with a historical overview of the Melbourne Beth Din (MBD), Australia’s longest standing Rabbinical court. Of particular focus is the cause of its inception, its relationship with Melbourne’s various Hebrew Congregations, the key personalities who led and participated in its operations, and the communal context within which it operated. The second part of the article explores elements within the Melbourne Jewish community who, dissatisfied with the MBD, challenged its centrality within the community by forming alternate institutions. In addition, the shift over time in its relationship with its founder, the Chief Rabbinate of the British Empire, is analysed. Last, while the MBD primarily concerned itself with matters of personal status and ritual matters, its dealings in civil arbitration are discussed, which pave the way towards a greater understanding of the context for recent rulings in the Victorian and New South Wales Supreme Courts in relation to civil arbitration awards issued by ad hoc Batei Din. Introduction Batei Din (Jewish religious courts, sing. Beth Din) in Melbourne and Sydney have in recent times come to the attention of the public, in the context of their awards and procedure in civil arbitration being challenged in the Australian courts. In addressing the issues which have presented themselves in these cases, it is important to “see where the feet grow from”1 in order to gain a more holistic understanding of the issues which have presented themselves of late.

  • HASSIDIM CONFRONTING MODERNITY William Shaffir
    HASSIDIM CONFRONTING MODERNITY William Shaffir N the late 1960s, I knew virtually nothing about hassidic Jews when I began researching their lifestyle and community organiza- Ition. But I still vividly recall how I was struck then by their distinc- tive presence along the Park Avenue area in the Mile End district of Montreal. Many of my peers mockingly referred to them as the ‘Park Avenue White Sox’ (after the famous Chicago White Sox baseball team) because some of the men in the community wore breeches tied below the knee, so that their white-stockinged calves were visible below their long black coats and slipper-like shoes. Those hassidim not only appeared out of place but, to my surprise, seemed untouched by the secular influences of the wider society.1 At around this time, in November 1969, I noted in my set of field notes: I spent a good part of the morning walking the streets around Park Avenue to get a feel for where the hassidim live in this part of the city. I was there around mid-morning. Hassidic men are walking briskly as though they are on a mission. No one strolls leisurely. My casual strolls, at various times of the day, allowed me to also observe scores of women pushing baby carriages and young boys, with lengthy earlocks, playing outside their homes. I wonder if this community has experienced any major changes that have impacted on their chosen way of life? I imagine this will become one underlying theme of my research. How can it not be? Based on a few conversations that I’ve had with persons that seem knowledgeable about hassidim — mainly non-hassidic Jews I should point out — they have managed the impossible.

No part of the text may be reproduced in any form, nor may any page be photographed and reproduced, without written permission of the publisher. Manufactured in the United States of America Designed by G&H SOHO, Inc. CONTENTS Preface . vii Subject Index . 1 Author Index . 193 Book Reviews . 303 v PREFACE The goal of this cumulative index is two-fold. It is to serve as an historical reference to the conventions of the Rabbinical Assembly and to the statements, thoughts, and dreams of the leaders of the Conser- vative movement. It is also to provide newer members of the Rabbinical Assembly, and all readers, with insights into questions, problems, and situations today that are often reminiscent of or have a basis in the past. The entries are arranged chronologically within each author’s listing. The authors are arranged alphabetically. I’ve tried to incorporate as many individuals who spoke on a subject as possible, as well as included prefaces, content notes, and appendices. Indices generally do not contain page references to these entries, and I readily admit that it isn’t the professional form. However, because these indices are cumulative, I felt that they were, in a sense, an historical set of records of the growth of the Conservative movement through the twentieth century, and that pro- fessional indexers will forgive these lapses.
