Building a Better Shabbat – The progress being made on our stunning new social complex is so swift that we’ll be finishing all the major construction in less than three weeks! As a result, we’re going to host our upcoming first of the year Family Shul Shabbaton in it. Because the stunning new banquet hall is almost complete, we’re not going to post any more pictures of the progress. Instead, we want you to be surprised and amazed in person on Friday evening, October 25 when you’ll see it for the very first time! This very special Shabbaton will serve as the grand opening for our community, complete with a ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday afternoon before Shabbat arrives. The guest speaker for this historic Shabbat will be the world-renowned Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Jacobson. A globetrotting presenter & master instructor, Rabbi Jacobson lectures to Jewish and non-Jewish audiences on six continents, and serves as a universal teacher and mentor to thousands. He’s a mesmerizing orator who excels at making Torah insight relevant to contemporary audiences. So lock in Friday, October 25 and Shabbat morning October 26 and be there as we inaugurate our stunning new Social Hall and celebrate our latest remarkable communal achievement! Yes, We Do Windows… …into your soul! The all-new Rosh Chodesh Society women’s-only study series for the year 5774 begins next month. This year’s extraordinary curriculum is entitled A Reason to Celebrate, and once again this eye-opening course especially created for women, by women will focus on uncovering the deeper meaning and timeless relevancy of our Jewish holidays. All Flamingo Ladies should sign up now and become part of this unique Jewish women’s global educational movement. Discover how the holidays can become windows into our inner selves, fortifying us with tools to successfully face our challenges. Registration opens on October 15th and the classes, taught by Rebbetzin Faygie Kaplan will be held each month on the first Monday of the new Hebrew month in close proximity to Rosh Chodesh beginning at 8:00 pm. Raiders of the Lost Ark – This week’s parsha is called Noach, named after the righteous man who was instructed by G-d to build a wooden Teiva – a giant floating barge-like boat referred to as an “Ark”. This ancient lifecraft sheltered Noach, his family and at least two members (male and female) of each animal from a huge Mabul or devastatingly destructive flood. G-d was so upset with all the violence and corruption among the people that he made it rain for 40 days and nights in order to wipe planet earth clean and reinvent the world, removing all land life in the process. But the amazing ark floated along, keeping Noach, his family, and all the animals alive so that they could later re-populate it. To learn more about this extraordinary watercraft and its unique story, all the children will make their own edible ark out of different yummy treats! This Shabbat we’ll also be celebrating Birthday Club (as it is Rosh Chodesh), and recognize all the children whose birthdays fall in the upcoming month of Cheshvan. A reminder that tokens and the Grand Raffle follow Ein Kelokeinu. Mazel Tov to last week’s Shabbat mensch: Elisheva Papernick!

It will provide these soon-to-be men with wisdom, understanding and knowledge of what ‘becoming a man’ means from a Jewish perspective and give the participants newfound appreciation of the responsibilities and privileges of being Jewish. To ensure success, Meir is planning to cap enrollment at only 10 boys, and there are already 6 signed up! Act now and grab one of the few remaining spaces while you can. For more info or to register your son, please contact Meir at [email protected] or call him on cell phone (416) 605-9773. Sessions begin later on this month on selected Wednesdays at 6:30pm!

Trials and Tribulations – On Tuesday, October 15, noted scholar and author Rabbi Yerachmiel Moskoff will be with us @ Flamingo to present a very special lecture at 8:00 pm all about his recently published book, This Too was for the Best: Approaching Trials and Tribulations from a Torah Perspective. The Toronto born and bred Rabbi (who is the son of our dear Shul members Frank and Sheila Moskoff!) lives in Israel but is now in Canada for a special book tour. His book provides fresh context and insight on the phenomenon of suffering and the pain and anguish that has punctuated Jewish history. Written almost exclusively from a Mussar (non-esoteric or mystical) perspective, it provides a pragmatic and sobering yet fascinating Torah analysis on this subject. Discover how the challenges we face are actually carefully designed mechanisms to help us grow. The important information to be revealed has the potential to enhance, add simcha and meaning to your life, so don’t miss it! A G-d-given Right to Joy – The first set of special new classes to be featured this year are the Tanya Teachings, beginning Sunday mornings at 8:30am.

  • Tehillat Hashem and Other Verses Before Birkat Ha-Mazon
    301 Tehillat Hashem and Other Verses Before Birkat Ha-Mazon By: ZVI RON In this article we investigate the origin and development of saying vari- ous Psalms and selected verses from Psalms before Birkat Ha-Mazon. In particular, we will attempt to explain the practice of some Ashkenazic Jews to add Psalms 145:21, 115:18, 118:1 and 106:2 after Ps. 126 (Shir Ha-Ma‘alot) and before Birkat Ha-Mazon. Psalms 137 and 126 Before Birkat Ha-Mazon The earliest source for reciting Ps. 137 (Al Naharot Bavel) before Birkat Ha-Mazon is found in the list of practices of the Tzfat kabbalist R. Moshe Cordovero (1522–1570). There are different versions of this list, but all versions include the practice of saying Al Naharot Bavel.1 Some versions specifically note that this is to recall the destruction of the Temple,2 some versions state that the Psalm is supposed to be said at the meal, though not specifically right before Birkat Ha-Mazon,3 and some versions state that the Psalm is only said on weekdays, though no alternative Psalm is offered for Shabbat and holidays.4 Although the ex- act provenance of this list is not clear, the parts of it referring to the recitation of Ps. 137 were already popularized by 1577.5 The mystical work Seder Ha-Yom by the 16th century Tzfat kabbalist R. Moshe ben Machir was first published in 1599. He also mentions say- ing Al Naharot Bavel at a meal in order to recall the destruction of the 1 Moshe Hallamish, Kabbalah in Liturgy, Halakhah and Customs (Ramat Gan: Bar Ilan University Press, 2000), pp.

  • UNVERISTY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Spiritual Narrative In
    UNVERISTY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Spiritual Narrative in Sound and Structure of Chabad Nigunim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Music by Zachary Alexander Klein 2019 © Copyright by Zachary Alexander Klein 2019 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Spiritual Narrative in Sound and Structure of Chabad Nigunim by Zachary Alexander Klein Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Richard Dane Danielpour , Co-Chair Professor David Samuel Lefkowitz, Co-Chair In the Chabad-Lubavitch chasidic community, the singing of religious folksongs called nigunim holds a fundamental place in communal and individual life. There is a well-known saying in Chabad circles that while words are the pen of the heart, music is the pen of the soul. The implication of this statement is that music is able to express thoughts and emotions in a deeper way than words could on their own could. In chasidic thought, there are various spiritual narratives that may be expressed through nigunim. These narratives are fundamental in understanding what is being experienced and performed through singing nigunim. At times, the narrative has already been established in Chabad chasidic literature and knowing the particular aspects of this narrative is indispensible in understanding how the nigun unfolds in musical time. ii In other cases, the particular details of this narrative are unknown. In such a case, understanding how melodic construction, mode, ornamentation, and form function to create a musical syntax can inform our understanding of how a nigun can reflect a particular spiritual narrative. This dissertation examines the ways in which musical syntax and spiritual parameters work together to express these various spiritual narratives in sound and structure of nigunim.

  • Torah Online - Rabbi Tuvia Bolton
    Torah Online - Rabbi Tuvia Bolton This week's section finishes the first of the Five Books of Moses; the Holy Bible given directly and publicly by the Creator of the Universe to the entire Jewish nation at Mount Sinai. But strangely this book isn't very Biblical! It contains no miracles, rituals, rites, commandments, prayers, meditations, mysterious messages or even sermons; the stuff The Bible is made of. But it does contain stories. There is a story about two authors who approached a Holy Rabbi by the name of Rebbe Yisroel of Ruzin some 150 years ago for approbations on books they had written. The first was a great Talmudic scholar who wrote a sizable masterpiece explaining various complicated Talmudic concepts while the other, a much simpler Jew, brought a book of stories he had compiled. They presented their works to the Rebbe and waited for his response. The Rebbe examined the larger book for several moments, put it down on his table and then glanced through the second book, smiled at the author, praised him warmly, wrote a glowing approbation, blessed him with success and only after he left the room turn to the other Chassid, praise his work and write a glowing recommendation. The second Chassid was pleased … but perplexed to the point that he respectfully asked why it was that the Rebbe seemed to favor the other book and approved it first when his work obviously involved more effort, time and painstaking work. "Very simply", the Rebbe answered. "Just as the Torah begins with stories; namely the entire book of Genesis, and only then begins the other four books where the commandments are found.

    Chabad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedivisiteda on 1/6/2015 Page 1 of 12 Chabad From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Chabad, also known as Habad, Lubavitch, and Chabad-Lubavitch,[1] is a Orthodox Jewish, Hasidic movement. Chabad is today one of the world's best known Hasidic movements and is well known for its outreach. Organizationally, it is the largest Jewish religious organization in the world.[2][3] ,Wisdom" :( המכח , הניב , תעד ) is a Hebrew acronym for Chochmah, Binah, Da'at ( בח "ד :Founded in 1755 by Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, the name "Chabad" (Hebrew Understanding, and Knowledge" which represent the intellectual underpinnings of the movement.[4][5] The name "Lubavitch" is the Yiddish name for the originally Belorussian village Lyubavichi where the movement's leaders lived for over 100 years. The Chabad movement represents an intellectual-mystical school of thought established and led by a dynasty of Hasidic rebbes. The movement was based in Lyubavichi (Lubavitch) for over a century, then briefly centered in the cities of Rostov-on-Don, Riga, and Warsaw. From 1940[6] until the present day, the movement's center has been in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn.[7][8] In 1950, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson became the seventh and last Rebbe of Chabad-Lubavitch, and transformed it from a small hasidic movement, into the largest Jewish movement in the world today. He established a network of more than 3,600 institutions that provide religious, social and humanitarian needs in over 1,000 cities, spanning 80 countries and 49 of the 50 American states.[9][10][11][12][13][14] Chabad institutions provide outreach to unaffiliated Jews, and humanitarian aid, as well as religious, cultural and educational activities at Chabad run community centers, synagogues, schools, camps, and soup kitchens.

  • Rav Leib Sarah's Zt”L
    Issue (# 18) A Tzaddik, or righteous person makes everyone else appear righteous before Hashem by advocating for them and finding their merits. (Kedushas Levi, Parshas Noach; Sefer Bereishis 7:1) Parshas Terumah Kedushas Ha'Levi'im THE MISHKAN AND MAN: MICROCOSMS OF THE UNIVERSE In the rings of the Ark the staves shall remain; they may not be removed from it. You shall place in the Ark the testimonial tablets that I will give you... (Shemos 25:15–16) The holy Berditchever asked in Kedushas Levi: Why is there an extra warning against removing the staves from the Ark, unlike any other precaution regarding the holy vessels? To make the answer to this question clear, the Berditchever tells us that he must give a bit of a lengthy explanation. He says that it is well known that man is called an “olam katan,” a small world, and that he is a microcosm of the universe, and that his 248 limbs correspond spiritually to the 248 positive commandments, and that his 365 sinews correspond spiritually to the 365 negative commandments. Similarly, explains the Berditchever, the Mishkan and all of its vessels correspond to the spiritual forces behind the mitzvos, each vessel alluding to a different mitzvah. [For example: The Zohar II 152b-153b teaches that the Shulchan corresponds to the mitzvah of Birkas haMazon, just as the shulchan draws down blessings and sustenance to the whole world so does the grace after meals which we recite.] The Kedushas Levi reminds us that there are several mitzvos that man is obligated to always have in mind and remember constantly, at every moment.
