We plan on starting November 11, at 4:30 pm in the upstairs Bais Medrash. If you can come on a regular or close to regular basis please call Mordechai Beleck at 443-570-3850 so he can put you on the minyan list.

minyan (unless those present want to make one).

Welcome to Congregation Tiferes Yisroel Parshas Chaye Sarah/Mevorchim Kislev

This week’s Lev Echad is in honor of:

Adriana Steinberg

Bais Medrash Renovation It is with much pleasure and excitement

that we announce a major new construction project for Tiferes Yisroel. With G-d’s help we will embark upon a mission to expand and beautify the upstairs Bais Medrash. This will involve building a space directly above the “sunroom” of the main shul. Upstairs on the second floor, we will knock down the wall of the Bais Medrash facing Pinkney Road and build out over the sunroom adding 50 percent more space to our Bais Medrash. At the same time, we will redecorate the Bais Medrash with a new look, additional bookshelves and seforim. The main sanctuary will not be affected or altered.

We have enlisted the services of our friend Bernie Schulman as our contractor. Our long-time shul member Bob Rosenfelt will be helping with the site plans and drawings. Bob is a former president of the shul and was our outstanding building chairman when we built our current shul. Much thanks to Bob and Bernie.

Our dear friends and members Drs. Ed and Mesa Leventhal will be dedicating the new Bais Medrash renovation in memory of Ed’s parents, Harry B. and Sylvia Leventhal a”h. Much thanks and appreciation to Ed and Mesa for their support and generosity. Yaakov and Ester Gur have also given generously to the expansion project to help us get started. Thank you to Yaakov and Ester for your support and generosity.

Rabbi Goldberger will be starting the fundraising effort in the very near future to raise the additional amount necessary for the project, and a smaller amount to paint the inside of the shul building and take care of a few other areas which need attention. The total amount of the project is $75,000.

Our shul has not conducted a capital campaign since we bought and built our current shul building 19 years ago and we have not had a building fund since then as well. Please remember that the funds being raised are completely separate from shul operating funds.

Please begin thinking about what you would like to contribute, if you can, to this beautiful and important project, to enhance a makom Torah and tefilla, which is used daily by our kehilla. This campaign is not meant to take away any support from the day-to-day operations of the shul. The gift you are able to give should be considered over and above what you give to the shul in general.

May Hashem grant us much success in this holy and important endeavor. Thanks to one and all for your help in expanding and beautifying our shul.

The Weekly Parsha

Sedrah Selections — Selections

by Zvi Akiva Fleisher

Ch. 23, v. 9: “M’oras hamachpeiloh” — The double cave — Pirkei d’Rebbi Eliezer and the Holy Zohar write that Avrohom was interested in specifically the M’oras hamachpeiloh as a burial site for his wife, himself, and future generations because he once chased a runaway sheep into this cave and came upon the graves of Odom and Chavoh and found lit candles there.

Yalkut Reuveini says that Avrohom was aware of this location being the passageway to Gan Eden.

Zohar Hechodosh on parshas Lech L’cho says that when a person’s soul ascends upwards it goes through the M’oras hamachpeiloh first. He adds that all our prayers ascend through the M’oras hamachpeiloh.

Ch. 24, v. 1: “VaShem beirach es Avrohom bakole” — And Hashem blessed Avrohom with everything” — The Admor Rabbi Avrohom Yaakov of Sadigura explains the words, “V’dorshei Hashem lo yach’s’ru kol tov” to mean “v’dorshei Hashem lo yach’s’ru,” those who pursue Hashem lack nothing. This is because “kol tov,” everything that happens to them is accepted as being for their good. Applied to our verse, we can say that this was Avrohom’s blessing, “bakole,” with the understanding that that KOL is TOV. (Likutei Bosor Likutei)

Ch. 24, v. 13: “Vaa’sei chesed im adoni Avrohom” — And do kindness to my master Avrohom — Rabbi Chagi in the name of Rabbi Yitzchok said, “Everyone needs to be the recipient of kindness. Even Avrohom who was the apex of kindness, and it was his kindness that was the conduit for Heavenly kindness to descend to the earth, nevertheless, he was also in need of Heavenly kindness. Surely others require kindness to be bestowed upon them.” (M.R.)

Ch. 24, v. 16: “Va’tei’red ho’einoh … vato’al” — And she descended to the wellspring … and she ascended — Why does the Torah tell us that she had to descend to draw water from the well? Perhaps it is to bring to our attention the greatness of her act of kindness. Not only did she draw water numerous times for Eliezer, his entourage, and the camels, but each time she drew water she had to shlep it uphill from the well.

Ch. 24, v. 65: “Vatomer el ho’eved ‘Mi ho’ish halo’zeh’ ” — Why did Rivkoh ask, “Who is this man?” Obviously she saw many

other people during her trip as well. The Moshav Z’keinim and the Paanei’ach Rozo answer in the name of the medrash that she paid special attention to Yitzchok because he was walking in an upside down position, his head on the ground and his feet in the air. This was because he had come from a two year recuperation period in Gan Eden (See Targum Yonoson ben Uziel) to recover from what should have been a fatal laceration to his throat, inflicted by his father at the Akeidoh (See Yalkut Dovid on parshas Toldos). We find a similar phenomenon in the Prophet Shmuel 1:28:13, “Ro’isi elohim olim min ho’oretz.” The Paanei’ach Rozo adds that we have an allusion to Yitzchok’s coming from Gan Eden in verse 62 which begins with “V’Yitzchok boh,” which has the same numerical value as “miGan Eden.” (The TWO YEAR recuperation period does not match with the Seder Olom and Tosfos Y’vomos 61b who posit that Rivkoh was three years old when she was married to Yitzchok, if we also say that she was born at the time of the Akeidoh, as per the Ohr Hachaim Hakodosh mentioned in parshas Va’yeiro.) According to the above-mentioned medrash that Yitzchok sustained what should have been a fatal laceration and survived only by being in the Gan Eden I.C. unit, it is well understood why we end the blessing of “Atoh GIBOR,” called the blessing of “g’vuroh,” corresponding to Yitzchok whose dominant character trait is portrayed as “g’vuroh,” with the words “m’cha’yei ha’meisim,” since Yitzchok was brought back from the dead, meaning that by the rules of nature he should have succumbed to his wound. (Rozo d’Meir)

Ch. 25, v. 11: “Va’y’vo’rech Elokim es Yitzchok” — And Elokim blessed Yitzchok — Avrohom did not bless Yitzchok because he feared that Yishmo’eil would harbour hatred for Yitzchok (see what happened with Yitzchok’s blessing Yaakov, and only by virtue of an impersonation). Once Avrohom died, Hashem bestowed upon Yitzchok the blessing his father would have given him. (Targum Yonoson ben Uziel)

Giving tzedakah in the name of the departed has the power to elevate their soul. When you give charity on behalf of your loved one, consider giving to Tiferes Yisroel.

And may the soul of your loved one be bound in the bond of life, together with the souls of Avraham, Yitzchak and Yaakov; Sarah, Rivka, Ra-chel and Leah; and together with the other righteous men and women in Gan Eden.
