RABBI’S MESSAGE BUILDING THE FAMILY
Recently after shul one Shabbat morning we discovered a pair of children’s shoes that was left in the Sanctuary. I looked at the shoes and assessed that the child was of elementary school age and wondered to myself: How did the child go home? Was the child in a stroller and no-one noticed that he didn’t have shoes? Or perhaps he had a different pair of shoes, maybe tennis shoes, for walking and running purposes? No-one claimed those shoes; they stayed in the office’s lost and found for months. Of course that doesn’t compare to what happened on Rosh Hashanah. One evening there were about six of us left in the Sanctuary, about to go home, and we noticed that in the third row was a sleeping child, a boy of about 6 or 7 years old I guess. The father had left him there. We chuckled and wanted to guess amongst ourselves how long it would take before the parents realized that they were minus one child. We didn’t wait around to find out. One of us, a close neighbor to the family, awakened the child and brought him home. Both these incidents are quite minor but nevertheless this is indicative of things that go wrong in a community. We have to understand that children are our biggest investment. When parents are blessed with a child, Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch (19th century Germany) insightfully interprets be fruitful and multiply as having children and educating them. It is that latter verb to multiply that Rav Hirsch interprets differently. He feels that the root word of be fruitful is the same as civilization or rabbi in the Hebrew. Blessed be the child who has two parents who are dedicated to developing the family entity and building upon it. In Hebrew the root word of son and daughter is the same root as to build. We are building the family from scratch. The greatest sacrifice, I believe, is from the mother because by definition her birthing experience creates a bond that the father is not going to experience for quite a while. Yet many of today’s mothers have full time careers, besides their role of being mothers and home builders. In the beginning she is the primary caregiver and teacher for each child. Eventually the father gets more into the mix and they must blend their talents to teach the children and be the role model for each child. Imparting knowledge and wisdom to children is also two different topics. As Winston Churchill said: Knowledge is knowing that the tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put tomatoes in your fruit salad. Knowledge is priming your child with information. The parents also need to role model proper conduct of life. The knowledge that the child receives will manifest itself in the wisdom that they will demonstrate in possessing the correct conduct in life. All parents hopefully will have a major blessing to enjoy children, but they also have to earn it! They will have to begin influencing their child when the child is very young. They have to be firm in their resolution to make the child’s spiritual development the primary concern for the parent. One of the greatest guides to parenting is the book of Proverbs. (I highly recommend either picking up Hirsch’s “From the Wisdom of Mishle” or Proverbs by the Malbim. Both are English translations, but short books which concisely interpret some of the nuggets of wisdom found in King Solomon’s ancient text.) Proverbs tells us to train a child according to his way so that when the child grows older he will not depart from it. That cannot be done so effectively in the school setting with a lot of children in one classroom, but it is essential to the makeup
of the family unit. It is a fortunate child who has two parents operating on the same wavelength and able to dedicate time and energy to the development of their children. Each child is different and requires individual attention. Parents need to assess and judge what the child’s inclinations are in his nature. Is he a studious child? Is he focused? Or is he really self-centered? Does the child like to play? Is there sincerity and integrity in his nature? And very importantly, he has to learn by oral and role-modeling forms of transmission the importance of being a mensch. Menschlichkeit, caring for other people, is very important in our assessment of the goal of raising children into this world. The parental guidance and teaching will influence the child tremendously. Each child is a challenge. Some are more challenging than others. No child should be labeled as bad and beyond hope. It is extremely important that parents understand that we do not give up hope ever in the development of children. In Proverbs 19:18 “influence your child by education, for there is always hope; but do not pay attention to his crying.” This statement is essential as a guideline for all parents. I believe that the child himself is the one who dictates the need for a loving caress and a stern approach at different times of his or her development. At the time of a baby’s Brit Milah we quote Proverbs when the baby is receiving his name: “Your father and your mother shall be glad, and she who bore you shall rejoice” (23:25). We want our children to be happy, but at the same time we want our children to make us happy. That is the brachah at the time of the baby’s birth, and it doesn’t change. That is still the brachah that we give ourselves and our families to experience. We can talk about parents receiving nachas from children, but it is the other way around as well. I remember fondly times in my early adult life when I got nachas from my father, in seeing something, or appreciating something that he did. One time I was contacted by the Hebrew Academy in Washington, DC to attend their annual dinner where my father was one of the honorees. When we were attending the school my father was a grocery man and didn’t have much money at all. We were on scholarship and my father would prepare the Sunday morning breakfast for the Minyanaires each week as part of his contribution to the school. Now, years later, my father in his retirement was giving some $40,000 to the school and they decided to make him one of the honorees that year. I asked my father about his giving away my inheritance. He smiled and said, “When you were in the school I didn’t have two nickels to rub together. Now all of you are doing okay and I find myself in a position where it is time for some payback. Now in my retirement I can afford to give something back to the school. We certainly have that debt to them.” I kissed my father and told him how proud I was and how much nachas I was receiving from my old man. I share that story with you because it is also part of this picture. Parents have tremendous responsibilities in bringing children into the world and educating them. And when all goes well everybody benefits, the parents, and the children, and the brachah at the time of the Bris is the brachah that will stand for a lifetime of each giving the other tremendous joy in life. My brachah to all the readers is: Stay in the game, be consistent, never give up hope, and the joy of a lifelong pursuit of family building will be in reach.

PRESIDENT Thank you for not smoking
Harry was a survivor. Born in Prague, at the age of 21 he was arrested in a movie theater for not wearing the required Star of David. He was deported to Theresienstadt where he performed forced labor, including hard labor in the Kladno coal mine. His family members were murdered by the Nazis, while Harry went onto Auschwitz and Buchenwald; He survived an Allied bombing of his transport train and the infamous Death March.
I knew Harry in his later years. He was a happy man, a family man and a small business owner. Sometimes the best stories don't surface until after a person has died, and although it’s been close to 2 decades since his passing, I only heard this part of his story recently.
You see, after surviving the hell he’d been through, Harry made his way to Seattle, WA. He married, started a family and a scrap metal business. As the years passed, Harry realized that it was important to him that his children receive a Jewish education. He made an appointment to see the local school, and filled out the paperwork to send his three children to day school.
Even then Day School wasn’t cheap. Despite being a business owner, some financial assistance was needed and requested. Another appointment was made and this time Harry met with Mr. “F”, who was in charge of financial matters at the school.
Mr. “F” asked Harry all kinds of questions. “How much do you make each year?” “How much is your mortgage?” “What do you spend your money on?” It was all going well, there was nothing to hide. As it looked like the interview/interrogation was just about over Mr. “F” pops the question: “Harry, you smoke, don’t you?” The answer was “yes”. “Well how much do you smoke?” Harry answered. Mr. “F” took out paper and pencil and proceeded to show Harry that if he stopped smoking, he’d save enough money each year that the financial aid that he requested would not be needed.
It sounds like a reasonable solution to anybody who doesn’t smoke or understands nothing about addiction. Harry was a chain smoker, who’d been hooked for many years. While in Auschwitz, Harry was rumored to have traded his food rations for cigarettes. This was not a reasonable plan at all! I simply cannot tell you what ran through Harry’s mind. I can only assume it was disappointment, intense anger and maybe even a sense of betrayal. No one could blame him for walking out and never looking back.
What I can tell you is the ending of the story. Harry quit smoking and his three children went to day school. Today they live their lives as Torah observant Jews. Harry understood sacrifice like none of us today can.
If you are wondering why I have chosen to share Harry’s story with you, it’s because I keep hearing that there are people living here in Hollywood who have not joined the shul because “it’s too expensive”. Certainly we all pick and choose what we spend our money on. We decide what is important to us and what is less important, what can be paid now, and what can wait until next month or the month after. Sometimes there simply isn’t anything left in the checkbook, even with best intentions and the most frugal spending.
Continued on the bottom of next column….
SISTERHOOD After the spirituality of Elul and Tishrei that we have just
experienced, it’s important to ask ourselves how to best maintain the spiritual momentum that we have had these past few weeks.
Thankfully our community has had a tremendous growth recently- not just new members who have moved to Hollywood, but new babies that have been born to many of our community members as well. As such, to honor our community’s moms, both new and not-so-new, to help continue our spiritual excitement throughout the year, we would like to discuss the notion of matrilineal descent. Throughout Jewish law, it is almost always the father's ancestry that is the determining factor in many areas. It is the father who determines a child's status as a Cohen or Levi, a member of the tribe of Judah or of Benjamin. Lineage is determined by the father regarding all categories except the most important: Whether a child is Jewish in the first place.
Rabbi Meir Soloveichik writes that the idea of matrilineal descent isn’t as far-fetched as one would think. “On the contrary,” he says. “God chose people to serve him in the fullness of their humanity, not only with their souls but also with their bodies… if we are to celebrate, and sanctify, our God-given human instincts, including and especially kinship, then no form of kinship is stronger, more natural, and more human, than motherhood.” It is true that throughout Tanach, male figures most often shape the familial character of our faith, but because Judaism involves the selection of a natural family, it is Jewish women rather than men who serve as the foundation of our familial faith.
In forming this foundation, we should strive daily to make our homes a place where our families thrive, not only physically but spiritually as well. Let us take the momentum of what we learned and felt during this past Elul and Tishrei and continue to grow throughout the calendar year. Let us, as women, and mothers take our spiritual role seriously each day that Hashem has entrusted us with this remarkable gift. May this year be a year full of continued bracha for our community, a year full of health and tremendous growth physically and spiritually for each of you and your families.
We look forward to seeing you all at the Breast Cancer Awareness Shabbos Kiddush and speaker October 31st. Please stay tuned for details on the upcoming new members’ tea. We look forward to greeting many of you!

President’s Message continued… YIH does not turn people away for lack of money.
Anyone who has approached us for financial assistance and has met with Reva Homnick, our Administrator, can attest to the sensitivity with which she conducts these discussions.
Please, if you hear of anyone who lives in our community who has shied away from joining for budgetary reasons, encourage them to talk to us. We’re not going to inquire about their smoking habits, but if you care, encourage them to quit so they can live a long and healthy life.

FACTS I DISCOVERED WHILE LOOKING UP OTHER THINGS
BLACK IVORY COFFEE… Black Ivory coffee is produced in northern Thailand by a company that has a preserve with approximately 20 elephants at the foundation. The elephants are a necessary key component of the production. The Arabica coffee beans are consumed by elephants and then collected from their feces. The taste of the Black Ivory coffee is influenced by the elephants’ digestive enzymes which break down the coffee’s protein. It is the protein that causes the coffee to be bitter, and the elephant is the chemical laboratory for removing a lot of the bitterness. The coffee beans are digested within 15 to 70 hours and are present in the excrement. Some of the beans are chewed, but most of them come out whole. The workers sift through the elephant dung in order to recover the coffee beans. This is the most expensive coffee produced in the world. It runs up to $1,100 per kilogram. The expense of not only the production, but also the amount of raw coffee cherries needed to produce 2 pounds of finished product is a hefty 72 pounds. A few luxury hotels sell Black Ivory coffee and will serve this coffee to you for $50 a cup. The issue of kashrut was addressed by Rav Yitzchak Zilberstein of Bnei Brak. Rav Zilberstein writes a Responsum on Black Ivory coffee addressing two particular issues. One is the elephant, and the second is the disgusting nature of the production. In terms of the elephant he compares the production to the bees making honey. It is honey in, honey out. Here it is coffee beans in, coffee beans out. Consequently he finds no issue with the bean itself. There is another halachah about something that is really repulsive and repugnant that people will not want to eat it. Obviously people are eating it and paying an exorbitant price for that luxury. So on the basis of his discussion of these two issues, he concludes that it is a kosher product. KOPI LUWAK… Kopi is the word for coffee in the language spoken in Sumatra, and the Luwak is a civet, a member of the cat family. Here, too, the civets are made to eat the coffee cherries of this particular region and the digestive mechanism of the civet improves the flavor of the coffee beans. The coffee cherries pass through the civet’s intestines, and are then defecated with other fecal matter and collected. This is also a very expensive coffee at about $100 per kilogram in the Indonesian supermarkets. Kopi Luwak was also addressed by some rabbis and there is a difference of opinion among them. The OU presents the issue as possibly feeling that it is not kosher because the animal digests the beans and this improves it. Others look at it as the waste matter and consequently there is no importance given to the feces, and it is permitted. The OU’s decision: Ask your local rabbi for guidance as to the practical halachah of this matter. Basically if the Black Ivory coffee is kosher, I would presume that the Kopi Luwak coffee is kosher as well. (Thank you, RYW.)
SOLOMON PILLARS… These rock pillars are a natural part of the cliff wall, and developed as a result of the hard red sandstone. They are the “pillars” that stand out in Timna Park, located about 15 miles north of Eilat. Timna is the first place in the world we know of today where copper was mined and processed. There are thousands of shafts and remains of smelting furnaces dating to the ancient Egyptian empire. Copper was the first metal used to create tools, weapons, houseware items, as well as luxury and ritual articles. Solomon Pillars were discovered by the American archaeologist Nelson Glueck, who mistakenly attributed them to King Solomon. Historians disproved his findings, but the name stuck. (Glueck, 1900-1971, was a Reform rabbi and president of Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati, his hometown, from 1947-1971. He stated that no archeological discovery has ever controverted a Biblical reference.) NAMING A BABY BOY AT THE BRIT MILAH… It is established that we name a baby boy as part of the circumcision ceremony, as recorded in the Shulchan Aruch. Yet it is not mentioned in earlier texts. The literal reading of the Torah narrative does not specify that the naming occurred then; some would claim that the giving of the name might have been at the time of birth. According to Kolatch’s The Name Dictionary scholars have the opinion that our practice of naming the baby at the Brit began sometime in the middle of the twelfth century. He cites two Midrashim (Ruth Rabbah 6:6 and Kohelet Rabbah 3:4) that describe in great detail the celebration at the Brit but do not mention the giving of the name. The greater oddity in this regard is that we do find a reference to people being named at the time of circumcision in the New Testament. Luke 1:59 relates that John, son of Elizabeth and Zacharias was named at his Brit, as was Jesus in 2:21! LAMED VAV TZADDIKIM… In the Talmud (Sanhedrin 97b and Sukkah 45b) Abbaye said that “there are not less than 36 righteous men in the world who receive the Divine Presence.” Hence the idea was spread that there are minimally 36 righteous men living in the world in every generation. In Yiddish folklore they are referred to as Lamedvovnicks, the 36 (Lamed Vav is 36 in Gematria). They are responsible for the fate of the world, and one of them could be considered the Mashiach. In the 20th century, the Jewish tradition was reworked by the French writer André Schwartz-Bart in his novel The Last of the Just (1959, and in English in 1960). The author was the son of a Polish Jewish family murdered by the Nazis. Unfortunately, Schwartz-Bart totally changes the spirit of the Talmudic Lamedvovnick theme. He suggests that the 36 saints were a long and tragic dynasty whereby each was “privileged” to become a martyr. Each bears the world’s pains… beginning with the execution of an ancestor in 12th century York, England… culminating in the story of a schoolboy, Ernie, the last… executed in Auschwitz.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Q: All of us are involved with issues of security and safety, both at home and in our community, and we see an increased
effort on behalf of the leadership of the synagogue to make sure that the synagogue is a safe, secure environment at all times. The question I have is in terms of securing the Torah scrolls. Is there a concern that maybe the Aron Kodesh be more secure with more electronic surveillance being utilized?
A: Before addressing electronic surveillance the interesting Responsum existed in Israel and the question came from Colombia, South America four years ago. The question was regarding the security of the Torah scrolls and, in particular, the price of insurance. There were many Torah scrolls in the synagogue and the insurance premium was high. It was suggested that they take some Torah scrolls out of the Ark and secure them in a separate building under lock and key, which would not command the same insurance premium. There were only two or three Sifrei Torah in the Ark in the synagogue, and the other Torahs would be brought back in and utilized on a rotation basis, and more so on the holidays. So the question was, is this a lack of honor and respect to the Torah scrolls when they are being moved from the Ark and from the synagogue because of monetary issues? In this case it was to lower the insurance premiums. In the response the rabbis in Israel accepted the idea but reminded the people that there is an aspect of honoring the Torah scrolls themselves which is a good reminder for us as well.
In the matter of electronic surveillance cameras, we utilize them in our synagogue currently, and the most important part is that the cameras are rolling all the time on Shabbat, and they are not activated by a motion detector. As long as my walking around in the synagogue does not activate anything and the cameras are rolling there is no issue whatsoever. That being said it is obvious that we should think this way because otherwise, with the number of cameras that exist on every street corner these days where there is a traffic light, then crossing over the street would be problematic. With that stated, it is not a problem with utilizing the cameras as a safeguard. Other issues with electronic methods of securing the Torah scrolls in particular can be brought up at a different time in a more specific manner.
Q: Off the beaten path of normal questions for this column was the question of a person who had a sex change operation.
Do we accept this, and in what section of the shul would that person daven?
A: There was a question that came from Sweden to a Beit Din in Israel about a convert who was coming to the Beit Din in Sweden to convert to Judaism. In the course of conversation it was brought out that this person was born female, was married, and had two daughters, then had a sex change operation and now wanted to convert to Judaism. The Beit Din was asking a question of the Rabbanute in Israel as to whether they should accept such a person. This was a difficult Responsum to read because unfortunately Swedish law accepts the sex change and granted the person status as a male. In Judaism there is no such creature. The person is in violation of several laws of the Torah and consequently is still recognized as a surgically altered female. And the answer was not to accept her as a candidate for conversion.
In regards to your particular question to me, I would respond that such a person is really not acceptable to come to daven in our shul. A person who is legally halachically born a female, let’s say, remains a female. The fact that she now looks like a normal male and dresses as such makes the whole thing quite bizarre. The person cannot sit in either section, and we are not going to create a third section for such an individual. I wish the person much happiness in life, and understand the confusion clearly for an Orthodox synagogue in these times where such a question, however bizarre, is something that might come one day in our future too.
Q: When a groom who is celebrating his 7 days of Sheva Berachot enters the Shul and davens with a Minyan, the
congregants (at that Minyan) skip Tachanun. Suppose the groom is not in attendance, but the bride is. Does her presence allow the Minyan to skip Tachanun?
A: There is a difference of opinion on this matter, and I say that we would skip Tachanun. The issue is the strength or defined nature between the Minyan of men davening in the Shul and the women on the other side of the Mechitzah. Does one need to be “connected” with the Minyan in order to influence the davening? The discussion here can be related to the following situation: suppose a groom enters the sanctuary and has already davened with a different Minyan. Is his presence alone enough to allow the Minyan to skip Tachanun or need there be a “connection” between the groom and the Minyan? (Again, I favor that his presence is enough to consider the Minyan connected to his Simchah.)
The Yeshu’ot Yaakov (R. Yaakov Meshullam Orenstein, Galicia, d. 1839) wrote that if there is a groom in the city, praying in a different synagogue, the entire Jewish population of that city is “connected” with the Simchah; and that was the custom in Prague. Even though we do not follow that opinion, we do learn from that Responsum that the “connection” between the groom and the Minyan need not be that strictly defined.

Canned fruits not originating from China and Israel do not require kosher certification, if they only contain one or more of the following ingredients: Ascorbic acid, citric acid, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, salt, sugar, water. Note: Other ingredients may require kosher certification.
Canned vegetables: All canned vegetables need reliable kosher certification. Included are canned vegetables that list only the vegetables, salt and water as ingredients.
Jars of Palermo brand Pasta Sauces, distributed by Cosmopolitan Food Group, bear an unauthorized Star-K. The sauces include Tomato & Basil Gourmet Pasta Sauce, Arrabbiata Gourmet Pasta Sauce, and Napoletana Gourmet Pasta Sauce. These products are not kosher and are being recalled. Consumers who find these products in the marketplace should contact Star-K at [email protected]
Kosher Miami advises that Fresco Express, which was a small outlet in the Chase Building at 19495
Biscayne Blvd, has been sold, and it will now operate as Rococoa Café and Bistro. Rococoa Café and Bistro is NOT kosher certified. However, Rococoa Café will carry sealed and ready to eat products prepared by Fresco, which ARE certified by Kosher Miami. The only products sold by Rococoa Café that are certified as kosher are the ones prepared and sealed by Fresco, with the KM logo on the packaging.
All produce bearing the K-ORC insignia needs to be checked for insects. The K-ORC is checking the
washing agents used in the facility; the K-ORC is not checking the vegetables.
Shemittah Produce from Israel. The Badatz of the Eida Hachareidis of Israel reports that potatoes, carrots, red and green peppers, and cherry tomatoes are most likely grown during Shemittah relying on the Heter Mechira (the sale of the land of Israel to the Arabs to avoid Shemittah laws). These are being distributed across the United States and Europe. You can also find various food products, such as potato chips, salads, nuts, frozen and canned vegetables, jams, etc. that usually bear the Badatz Seal, but now do not. These are usually grown during Shemittah relying on the Heter Mechira and may even state “according to Heter Mechira.”
If you purchased an Etrog grown in Eretz Yisrael, you purchased it under the ruling of Otzar Beit Din
which made it permissible to sell produce grown in Israel during the Shemittah year. This means the Etrog retains the sanctity of Shemittah. To dispose of the Etrog after Sukkot, put it aside and allow it to dry out completely. Then dispose of it in a bag or box in the garbage.
USDA reminds people of safe food handling procedures during Shabbat and holidays. Keep hot food

Mitzvah Monitor “A Good Living and a Good Life”
Rabbi Yosef Weinstock
(Below is my sermon from Yom Kippur. With the Tishrei holidays behind us, it’s important to remember that the work continues. In some ways, our work begins as we embark on applying the inspiration and resolve of
the High Holidays into the routine of our daily lives.)
In the bracha of Sim Shalom throughout Aseret Ymei Teshuva we ask Hashem to remember and inscribe us:
B’Sefer Chaim Bracha V’Shalom Uparanasa Tova; “in the book of Life, Blessing and Peace and Good livelihood.”
Contained within this prayer is a request for both a good life and a good living. It’s important for us to understand the
difference between these two requests.
Winston Churchill noted:
“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”
Baron Edmond Rothschild once asked his personal assistant to calculate the Baron's net "worth." A few days later the
assistant came back with the sum total of his assets. The Baron said "That is not how much I am worth... The
government could seize all of my assets in an instant." The Baron then removed a small key from his vest pocket and
opened the center drawer of his private desk. He slowly pulled out a ledger and placed it on his desk. He opened it and
said "This is a ledger of all the money I have given to charity. This is something that can NEVER be taken away. THIS is
how much I am 'worth'."
In his book, The Road to Character David Brooks suggests that there are two types of virtues: resume virtues
and eulogy virtues. Resume virtues are the qualities that we bring to the marketplace. Eulogy virtues are the ones that
we are remembered for. We use resume virtues to make a living. We use eulogy virtues to make a life.
In Brooks’ own words:
“We all know that the eulogy virtues are more important than the résumé ones. But our culture and our educational
systems spend more time teaching the skills and strategies we need for career success than the qualities we need to
radiate our inner light. Many of us are clearer on how to build an external career than on how to build inner character.”
Brooks places much of the blame on what he calls The Big Me Culture prevalent today. Self-promotion is
viewed as good and necessary. Social media encourages us to constantly publicize a highlight reel of our life. The Big
Me culture is fertile ground for the celebration of resume virtues, and it stymies the appreciation of eulogy virtues. After
all how can someone highlight humility, an important building block for many eulogy virtues, on Facebook?
Yom Kippur is one day a year that we minimize the Big Me. Besides unplugging, a gift Hashem grants us each
week on Shabbat, we further neutralize the Big Me through the 5 restrictions of Yom Kippur. In so doing we create an
ideal environment for nourishing our eulogy virtues.
Corporations and organizations also possess both these types of virtues, and our shul is no different.
Sometimes I worry that we’re too focused our resume virtues, at the expense of seriously evaluating our eulogy virtues.
Continued on next page …
YOUNG ISRAEL OF HOLLYWOOD-FT. LAUDERDALE OCTOBER 2015 PAGE 13
Rabbi Weinstock’s Mitzvah Monitor continued . . .
By resume virtues I mean all of our shul’s impressive statistics: 541 member families. Over 700 children. 7 Shabbat
morning minyanim. The Rosh Hashanah Appeal to Action pledge cards (now available online if you have not yet
pledged) is an attempt to emphasize eulogy virtues, on a personal and communal level. As today our focus is primarily
on prayer, let us consider one eulogy virtue in particular: what we want our shul to be known for as it relates to tefilah.
How we treat tefilah and our mikdash me’at, for better or for worse, may reflect our feelings about God and ourselves.
According to Rav Soloveitchik, prayer is about maintaining and nurturing a "relational intimacy with God" that once took
the form of biblical prophecy.
"Just as God's prophecy was accepted by man, so would man's prayer be accepted by God."
When we don’t maximize that relationship building opportunity with Hashem could it be because we don’t
believe that Hashem cares about us?
Could it be that we have doubts about our worthiness to engage in such a relationship, leading us to disengage or even
sabotage the tefila experience?
For Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, the essence of prayer is God-consciousness.
"To pray..." he says, "...is to take notice of the wonder, to regain a sense of the mystery that animates all being, the
divine margin in all attainment; prayer is our humble answer to the inconceivable surprise of living.”
The purpose of tefilah is to get us to see the world in a different way --- so we can glimpse the wonder, the mystery and
feel the awe and a sense of God's presence. One of the ways that prayer does this is to change our orientation. Instead
of seeing the world from the perspective of self in the center, through tefilah we see the World as God-as- the Hub, with
ourselves as spokes.
Could it be that our attitudes towards and behaviors during tefila are a Rorschach test of sorts? That our difficulty in
maintaining the proper attitude and perspective towards prayer is a reflection of the challenges we face in feeling God’s
Presence in our lives. Are we afraid to let God in? Have we forgotten how to do so?
Our posture towards prayer may be a symptom of a broader skepticism and cynicism we feel in our lives. Our difficulty
in being inspired by prayer forces us to consider whether we are inspired by anything. If we are unable to treat tefila with
awe and respect and deference, then it’s valid to wonder whether there is anything in our lives towards which we show
awe or respect or deference. If prayer fails to catch our attention or interest, is it due to a generalized apathy and
attention deficiency so pervasive in our culture?
If tefila can be a Rorschach test for our pre-existing feelings and perspectives, then let us resolve to utilize our
prayer and shul experiences in the New Year as a laboratory for developing and practicing healthy and meaningful
perspectives that will benefit our lives beyond shul; A sense of awe and wonder; a sense of partnership with the
Almighty; a sense of empowerment and being cared for by God. A sense of passion and inspiration. A sense of
reverence and respect. A sense of idealism and optimism.
In the New Year, let us resolve to focus more attention and energy on our eulogy virtues. How we, with God’s
help, can achieve the good life - as individuals and as a shul.

A Broad Tent Just as we welcome individuals of all walks of life into our sukkah, the pro-Israel community prioritizes inclusiveness and diversity as pillars of its mission. When it comes to strengthening the bond between the United States and Israel, that broad tent is of utmost importance.
As the Jewish state faces growing threats on each of its borders, as well as the existential threat of a nuclear-armed Iran, the United States must continue to grow its support for Israel across political divisions and religious affiliations. Indeed, the fabric of the American pro-Israel movement is strongest when it is woven with a wide representation of individuals who are inspired by its core mission and who join in lock-step together.
This past August, 58 diverse members of Congress traveled to Israel on two substantive, week-long educational seminars to Israel. Almost all of the participants were freshman and most of them were visiting Israel for the first time.
Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the House Majority Leader, was the senior member of the Republican delegation, and Rep. Steny Hoyer, the House Democratic Whip, led the Democratic trip. For the first time ever – and at the request of Leader McCarthy and Whip Hoyer – the Republican and Democratic delegations overlapped for a day of bipartisan programming.
On these trips, members of Congress learned about the remarkable challenges and achievements of the Jewish state by engaging with members of Knesset, military officials, Palestinian Authority representatives, and leading journalists. They shared an emotional and uplifting luncheon on a Kibbutz near the Gaza border with young IDF soldiers. And they visited an Iron Dome battery—a joint U.S.-Israel defense program that has saved the lives of thousands of Israelis.
Following their visit to the Iron Dome battery, Leader McCarthy and Whip Hoyer released a joint statement: “As we visited the towns of Ashkelon and Sderot near Gaza, we saw firsthand that without the Iron Dome, many more people would have lost their lives. Congress stands united with Israel, not only in support of its Iron Dome defenses, but also in preserving Israel’s security and ensuring the safety of its people. In these dangerous times, Israel can always be certain that the American people are by their side.”
The pro-Israel tent is broad and open. When it comes to safeguarding the safety and security of America’s most vital ally—Israel—our elected officials in Washington demonstrate time and again that there is no room for partisanship.
