We look forward to seeing you again soon. The Curious Tale of the Mishpatim Haftarah. All are welcome to the congregational kiddush, sponsored in part by Lydia Bestul, A couple weeks ago, your humble correspondent was offered to learn and deliver the haftarah for Parashat Mishpatim. immediately following services in the Samuel and Minnie Hyman Ballroom. The request came just nine days in advance (a Thursday), which seemed precious little time (for me) to learn it. Looking it up, though, on the spot, it carries such wonderful cantillations that it was hard to resist. Thursday night I worked on it. This week’s Se’udah Shelishit will be sponsored by Helen & Rich Feder, in memory of Friday afternoon (still a scant week ahead) I realized that the following week would be Shabbat Shekalim, and thus a their beloved parents, Gina & Juda Bickel and Mildred & Milton Feder. different haftarah would be chanted. I was learning the wrong one! Looking to work on that initially attractive haftarah, I found it will next be chanted in 2022. So I offered my services for then, too. However, looking to place the chanting on my calendar, I found that that is the day when my twin cousins become benot mitzvah! They will have taken my haftarah opportunity! The next time it comes around will be in 2025. OUR CONGREGATIONAL FAMILY So, to Shekalim rather than Mishpatim. Just a touch of fancy cantillation, but it is a story in which there is a fair king and in which the carpenters would end up with a fair wage, so the practicing would be delightful in another way. Mazal Tov to But what is this? In the Shekalim Haftarah, there is a cantillation variation in one word between what is published in the Book of Haftarot on the one hand and in the humashim and online in Sefaria, and even in Hazzan Rob Menes’ online Ellen & Bob Garvin on the engagement of their son Michael to Leslie Klein of Albany, singing on the other hand. It is a word in 2 Kings 12:12. How could this be? New York. Michael is the grandson of members Ralph & Audrey Silverman and the late Well, as usual we open up a wealth of information. The Masoretes, groups of Jewish scholars between the 6th and 10th Norman & Ruth Garvin. centuries CE (about whom we should devote a few columns), took it upon themselves to protect and transmit the Bible as written. They also devised and passed down vowels and cantillation marks. Working in various locations mostly in the Middle East, the Masoretes left us several “codices” (“codex” being the name given to such a mauscript). Condolences to The Aleppo Codex (930 CE), kept in the Israel Museum, had been the earliest full original codex surviving to modern The family and friends of Arlyn Gilboa, who left us on February 25. times, but it was partly destroyed in 1947 (295 pages of 491 survive). Next oldest is the Codex Leningradensis (1008 CE), which lives in the Russian National Library, and which Rabbi Adelson put into my hands in the form of the Biblia Seth & Carolyn Glick and family on the passing of Seth’s grandmother Ellen (Falk) Hebraica Stuttgartensia, rife with annotated information.

We will continue to explore the concepts of cantillation – chanting our sacred texts according to ancient tradition. There will be a review of the underlying syntactic structure of the system of cantillation. Then, we will delve deeper into the grammar with sentence diagramming and ongoing focus on correct contemporary pronunciation of biblical Hebrew This course is primarily for rabbinical students (preferably who have taken one of the pre-requisite courses or some solid understanding of cantillation). However, others are welcome (depending on size of the class), provided they have an adequate sense of musical pitch and the ability to read and translate biblical Hebrew and have the following pre-requisites. Suggested pre-requisite for this course: Basic Cantillation (Treitman), Cantillation I (Jacobson) or permission of the instructor. This course does not count for graduate credit for students in the Cantorial Ordination programs, although cantorial students are welcome to audit. REQUIREMENTS: Attendance: Students are expected to attend each session and to participate fully. Learning cantillation melodies (with the voice that you have been given): Students are expected to go over chanting and to prepare texts as required.

It happened that Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children. 3 [He would go up]––the man Eli––from his city from year to year [to worship and] [offer sacrifice] to Adonai Ts’vaot in Shiloh. [And in that place]the two[sons of Eli], Chophni and Pinchas, were priests to Adonai. 4 [And it would be] [on the day] [that he made offerings]––Elkanah–– [that he gave]to Peninnah his wife,[to all her sons],[and to her daughters]––portions. 5 [But to Hannah] [he would give] one portion doubled, since his Hannah he loved, though Adonai had closed her womb. 6 [And she was taunted] by her rival continually, with the purpose of annoying her, because closed by Adonai was Hannah’s womb. 7 And so it was, year after year: when she (Peninnah) would go up to the house of the Lord, [she would not fail]to provoke her, so that she cried and did not eat.

  • 1 Teruma 5724. Alef. 1. A. the Wood Was Originally Planted by Yaakov In
    Teruma 5724. Alef. 1. a. The wood was originally planted by Yaakov in Egypt and brought out of Egypt when the people were freed from slavery. b.The wood grew near Mt. Sinai and was harvested when needed. c. The wood was purchased from peoples with whom the Jews traded. 2. The reason why RaShI explains a second time how Yaakov originally planted these trees in Egypt in anticipation of the eventual construction of the Mishkan is because of the “Heh Rather than simply making boards for the Mishkan, the people .”הקרשים“ ,HaYedia” in 26:15 made the boards, which had already been anticipated. It would appear that while other parts of the Mishkan were also constructed from this material, i.e., the Aron (25:10) and the Shulchan (25:23), the main reason for the growing of the wood and probably the purpose for which most of the wood was devoted, was the construction of the boards. 3. In the first commentary, the Peirush HaAroch,1 Ibn Ezra prefers the interpretation that the וכל אשר נמצא אתו עצי “ (trees were growing in the vicinity of Mt. Sinai. The phrase (35:24 refers to those who had harvested some of these locally ”שטים לכל מלאכת העבודה הביאו grown trees in order to construct shelters for themselves, were now being called upon to contribute that wood for the purpose of constructing the Mishkan. In the Peirush HaKatzar, Ibn Ezra, probably based upon the same phrase that he used to construct his first interpretation, now redefines his understanding to be similar to that of the Midrash and RaShI (he does not necessarily accept that this was all part of a plan that Yaakov had shared with his family; only that the Jews brought the wood from Egypt in anticipation of their own lodging needs), i.e., that these were brought from Egypt rather than harvested locally.

  • NOTES and COMMUNICATIONS the Third Edition of Biblia
    NOTES AND COMMUNICATIONS 1. A UNIQUE COMBINATION .OF ACCENTS The third edition of Biblia Hebraica reads at Ezek. xx, 31: C:>"',~,i-',:,', D"N~t,l °Cr\N •: .. I • T : <•: : • •: - The marginal massoretic remark to this, '~»t,:i ,, ("does not recur with this accentuation") becomes intelligible only on consulting the original MS according to which BH was ,printed, Leningrad Bl9a.l There the second word of the quotation reads C"~~~t Apparently the editors of BH overlooked this curious . accentuation, which recurs, with the same massoretic note, in the Aleppo and Cairo Codices. The massoretic note is quite right in drawing attention to the uniqueness of this accentuation. Two accents on one word are by no means rare in the Hebrew Bible, but the first of the two always appears in a place where Ga'ya would be expected, i. e. at a position of secondary stress at one remove from . the main stress. The two accents in the word discussed here, Qadma and Mahpakh, are found together in one word in this normal fashion seven times, e.g. ;ii»~-',::, Num. xx, 1 ; ,.,ni~i-1,:,, Ezek. xliii, 11.2 <T" T T <T TI Th'! verse discussed here, however, shows both accents on one and the same syllable. The usual reason for combining the two accents does therefore not account for our case. I 'Would suggest that 'We have here a "conflict of accents": the word ought, on the one hand, to have been accented with Mahpakh, this being the servus of Pashta, 'While Qadma does not immediately precede Pashta; on the other hand Qadma invariably follows Little Telisha (here in C?iN).
