How familiar are you with Torah? It's an important question because a lot of people simply remember the grand journey Moses takes and how he leads the people to Israel, and boom! You have the Torah. But it's so much more. In fact, outside of the 5 books of Moses you have The Talmud and Kabbalah and you have Pirkei Avot and you have this thing called Oral Torah versus Written Torah. Somewhere within the wide scope of what's considered Torah, you'll come across this book and wonder what's so special about this guy named Zohar. The mysteries and wisdom of The Zohar is well known and studied by Rabbi Natan Halevy. His precise and detailed work has been a lifetime achievement passed down from generation to generation within his family. Rabbi Halevy teaches Chaz Volk, host of Bad Jew, the depths, teachings, and relevance of this essential piece in Jewish literature. 00:00 Introduction 07:13 Oral Torah 10:04 Essential teachings 14:53 The power in reading 19:04 Zohar predicts cell phone addiction 22:30 Connection to Israel, Torah, and God deeply 24:39 Balancing study with life's responsibilities is challenging. 28:08 Alleviating depression, spreading holiness. 32:42 God's existence is fundamental 33:41 Practicing mystical teachings today About Rabbi Natan Halevy: I grew up in Los Angeles, and with my parents and siblings, attended Kahal Joseph where I had my Bar Mitzvah in 1994. As the child of Iraqi parents, I have a powerful sense of the strong culture and traditon I come from. In 2005 I received my Rabbinical ordination from Rabbi Yitchak Yaroslavsky at Yeshivat Tomchei Tmimim in Israel. I then served as an assistant Rabbi in Chabad of Great Neck, NY before I returned to Los Angeles in 2008. I love studying all facets of Torah—from the Bible to the Talmud to the inner parts of Torah. I also have knowledge of many other modalities and philosophies that I feel may support us as Jews and people in this modern day and age. My wife Bracha and our children – Yosef Hayim, Menucha, Menachem, Noam, and Shimon – are very happy to be working with the wonderful Kahal Joseph community.

We continue in Pesukei Bitachon starting with the letter Vav , Yeshaya 32,18. We're talking about the future, and we have a very important lesson. וְיָשַׁ֥ב עַמִּ֖י בִּנְוֵ֣ה שָׁל֑וֹם וּֽבְמִשְׁכְּנוֹת֙ מִבְטַחִ֔ים וּבִמְנוּחֹ֖ת שַׁאֲנַנּֽוֹת׃ My Nation will dwell in the abode of peace (which the Abarbanel says refers to Yerushalayim) and in dwellings of reliance, peace of mind, serenity and calmness. On this description of the future, Rav Saadia Gaon, one of the Geonim , who came before the Rishonim , in his sefer Emunot V'Deot , 10th essay, letter 16, quotes our pasuk to tell us that Olam Haba is dwellings of reliance with peaceful serenity . That is Olam Haba -a picture of serenity, whatever serenity means to you, whether it's sitting in front of a Gemara or looking at a beautiful sunset. Whatever gives you the most calming, relaxing feeling, that is what Olam Haba will be. Rav Saadia Gaon asks what it is about the hustle and bustle of life that takes us out of ourselves, whereas calmness and serenity bring us Menuchat Nefesh . He explains that God made us this way, to remember the calm and serenity that Olam Haba will have and to become endeared by it. God made it so that we naturally feel good when we walk through a garden. When you walk through the Botanical Gardens, there's something about nature that suddenly calms you. You're supposed to think, “Ahh, I love nature. I'm looking forward to that future Garden of Eden. I love calm relaxation. That's dear to me. I'm looking forward to that in Olam Haba. The real, ultimate calm and serenity is Olam Haba. We use the term rest in peace based on pesukim . There's rest and calm. The Hovot Halevavot, in his first chapter of Shaar Bitachon, says the essence of bitachon is Menuchat Nefesh, which is translated as peace of mind, but it means, menucha/serenity , calm to the nefesh . The essence of Bitachon is feeling calm and relaxed, whatever that picture is for you, whether sitting on the beach with a perfect breeze, watching the sunset, being in the mountains in a waterfall…or whatever it may be. That is what bitachon is supposed to get you to. And what that means is that bitachon is only possible in Olam Haba. Olam Haba is just me and Hashem, without any interference or disturbance- just calm relaxation. So, what we're really asking with bitachon, is to be have an Olam Haba lifestyle in this world. That's why it's almost impossible to have full bitachon here- because of all the interferences. That's why the ultimate bitachon, the rabbis tell us, is rooted in the concept of En Od Milevado/There is nothing else but God, which is really Olam Haba , which is the Garden of Eden before the snake comes in. The snake destroys our bitachon. He's anti- bitachon. He tells you, “ You could be a creator. Eat from the tree.” The ultimate, perfect world is the world of Adam and Chava without the snake, in the Garden of Eden. That's what we're trying to get to with bitachon in this world. Bitachon is other-earthly. The sefer Batei Midrashot , citing a Midrash called Otiot Rabbi Akiva, quotes our pasuk, וְיָשַׁ֥ב עַמִּ֖י בִּנְוֵ֣ה שָׁל֑וֹם / My nation will dwell in an abode of peace, and it explains every step of the way. It says, וּֽבְמִשְׁכְּנוֹת֙ מִבְטַחִ֔ים /dwellings of reliance means there's no Satan, וּבִמְנוּחֹ֖ת שַׁאֲנַנּֽוֹת / in serene peace of mind means no angel of death or Yetzer Hara. What allows us to be in that perfect bitachon status is a world without anything but Hashem. It's unbelievable to think about the pasuk, to read and study it וְיָשַׁ֥ב עַמִּ֖י בִּנְוֵ֣ה שָׁל֑וֹם וּֽבְמִשְׁכְּנוֹת֙ מִבְטַחִ֔ים וּבִמְנוּחֹ֖ת שַׁאֲנַנּֽוֹת My nation is going to be Yerushalayim, which will be known as the abode of peace . Part of the word Yerushalayim is shalem , which is shalom . Peace is really shelemut / perfection . So, I will be in Yerushalayim, the dwelling of peace; I will be in a dwelling of reliance and serenity and peace . That's what I'm trying to get to down here in this world. I'm trying to get to Olam Haba in Olam Hazeh . That's why Shabbat is also about bitachon - because Shabbat is Me'en Olam Haba. What an unbelievable thought that Rav Saadia Gaon is telling us. For all the people going on vacation, every time you're in a relaxing situation, sitting in total relaxation and calm, think to yourself, ‘ This is just a mashal. This is just an example of Menucha of Olam Haba, ' and that menucha comes through bitachon . Have a wonderful day.

In our eleventh episode, we sit down with Mrs. Menucha Schwartz, a daughter of baalei teshuva who now serves the Roswell, GA community as a shlucha. Menucha describes her upbringing in an environment with both religious and secular influences, her journey to personally discover the value of learning, and her experience sharing those lessons with others as a teacher and shlucha. We then dive deep into one area of Torah in particular--the mitzvah of hair-covering for a married woman--and ask Menucha to teach us how women (and their husbands) can understand and relate to this unique expression of Jewish identity and marital sanctity.

It's my sister Menucha Klyne again! This time for a full length recording on the topic of navigating being an imperfect human while simultaneously raising our growing children. Like it or not, their childhood won't wait for us to become experts at this parenting thing.... so what if the messy beginner parent's we are is actually the best parent they could have? What if falling was a crucial part of learning to walk, and getting things wrong was a crucial part of getting things right? How might we view our imperfections differently if we were completely in acceptance, and actually expecting ourselves to make mistakes and get it wrong? And how might our new view inform our ability to keep trying? Enjoy the conversation and share what you think! To reach Mussi go to MussiDiskin.com To reach Menucha email MenuchaklyneNHA@gmail.com Love to you, incredible human! After all, you are reading this right now, which tells me that you are alive, engaged and trying! So pause and appreciate your commitment because it is a wonderful quality of your greatness.
One thing you'll get to know about my sister Menucha Klyne, is that she is so deep, real and authentic. No BS get's past her radar. That's why conversations with her are so important. They always force me to dig deeper and get even more honest with myself. Love you Menucha! Thanks for recording with me even though we had so little time!

This week's learning is sponsored by Sivya Twersky in loving memory of her father Harav Pesach Zachariah Halevi ben Harav Reuven Halevi (Rabbi Pesach Levovitz) on his 10th yahrzeit that was on the 5th of Adar. “He was a lifelong Daf Yomi learner, a community rabbi for 57 years, an international Rabbinic leader, responsible for generations of Jewish souls. He was the patriarch of his family, he would be proud and somewhat bemused by both the female and male Daf Yomi learners amongst his children and grandchildren as well as the leadership role that his granddaughter, Shoshana Baker, has taken in the Hadran movement. May his neshama have an aliya in the zechut of their learning.” This week’s learning is sponsored by Tuvia Hausdorff in loving memory of Moshe Aharon ben Eliezer Aryeh, Tuvia Levi ben David Meir, Tziona bat Sudia and Menucha bat Moshe Yechezkel. Today’s daf is sponsored by Susie Handelman in loving memory of her grandfather, Shmuel Ben Meir HaCohen (Katzin) Z"l. “He was a talmid hacham who immigrated to the US from Kovno in 1900 and died in 1936 before I was born. He would be in awe to know he has a granddaughter living in Jerusalem studying Talmud! May he hear from above and take pleasure from the sweet sounds of Rabanit Michelle and her students studying today's daf.” The Gemara finishes up the previous discussion regarding meila - what aspect of it is "like a mountain hanging by a hair"? A braita lists negaim and ohalot as also being in the category of few verses and many halakhot. Is that really so? The Mishna had listed several things that had verses to clearly rely upon in the Torah. This seem to imply that while they were more firmly based in the Torah than the previous sections, they still were not explicitly written in the Torah. The Gemara then questions each item on the list as they seem to be halakhot that were explicitly mentioned in the Torah. To answer the question, examples for each topic are brought that were not explicitly written in the Torah. The second chapter deals with topics that one needs to be cautious when teaching to others and should therefore limit the amount of students that one teaches it to. Topics include the forbidden sexual relationships, creation of the world, and maase merkava (in Ezekiel). One should also not delve into what is above, below, before and after. Where are these laws derived from?

What Is the Objective Of Bitachon?
7- Menucha V'Simcha by Avraham Arieh Trugman
Welcome to Embrace Shabbat. Rashi, based on Chazal, famously teaches: מה היה העולם חסר, מנוחה, באת שבת - באת מנוחה, What did the world lack? Rest! Shabbat came — Rest came. The Alshich raises three questions on Rashi's commentary: 1. מנוחה is not a form of מלאכה, so how could it be lacking in the world? 2. What do the words שבת וינפש refer to? 3. Why does the Torah use the term וינח ביום השביעי? It would be more gramatically correct to say ונח, and He rested, rather than וינח, and He caused to rest. Nothing physical can survive without a spiritual component. This can be seen most clearly with the human body, which immediately begins to decompose once its spirit leaves. Similarly, other living beings, such as flowers or trees immediately begin to rot once their spirit is removed. In the first six days of creation, the world was purely physical, without any spiritual component, and therefore would be destined to quickly decompose. HaKadosh Baruch Hu created Shabbat, the spiritual component to the world, which allowed it to continue to exist. This concept answers the three questions that Alshich raises. When Rashi states that the world was lacking menucha, he is referring to its ability to continue to exist without a spiritual component. Once Shabbat was instituted, the world could rest; it would not decompose. Additionally, the root of וינפש is נפש- G-d gave a “soul” to creation. The soul- Shabbat- was the holiness that was needed to keep creation going. Finally, this can explain the term וינח, and He caused it to rest. G-d didn't rest; He gave creation spirituality- Shabbat- which allowed it to rest and stop decomposing. It had a state of relaxation and it stayed the way it was, no longer disappearing. This concept continues to repeat itself every week. If we would continue working non-stop, the world would decompose. Shabbat is what gives us and the world the ability to exist- everything needs a touch of spirit. In the outside world, “spirit” refers to alcohol. Some people need those kinds of spirits to stay alive. However, when we talk about spirits, we refer to kedusha, limud torah, and other spiritual actions- טוב להודות לה. These are the spiritual connections that we make over Shabbat - באת שבת - באת מנוחה Shabbat Shalom.

On on our clubhouse when you come up to the platform, we say first of all that you're coming up to the bimah [the podium or platform in a synagogue from which the Torah and Prophets are read from]. And then second of all, when we make you a presenter, we give you smicha... So that means that you are ordinated. So instead of Reverend, we'll call you Reb. Is that okay? Dumisani Washington 00:20 That sounds good to me. Sounds good, no problem. Geoffrey Stern 00:23 So anyway, welcome to Madlik. Madlik is every week at four o'clock, and we do record it and post it as a podcast on Sunday. And if you listen to it, and you'd like what you hear, feel free to share it and give us a few stars. And what we do is disruptive Torah. And what we mean by disruptive Torah is we look at the ancient text of the Torah, with maybe a new lens, or to see a new angle. And today, I'm delighted to say that we're not only looking at it through a new lens, but we're looking at it through another lens, a lens of a pastor, of a man of God, who we will learn about his mission. I heard about it on clubhouse one evening, I was scrolling, and I stumbled upon you Reverend, and you're on a mission and you see Judaism and you see Zionism from a whole new perspective. So I want to thank you for coming on. And I want to say that, as I told you, in my email that I sent you that you know, every week about Saturday on Shabbat, on Sunday, I start thinking about what I'm going to pick as a subject matter for the coming Madlik session. And I purchased your book maybe two months ago, and it was sitting by the side of my bed, and for some reason, and of course, I'm sure there are no coincidences in this world. I picked it up this Shabbat. And it starts with our portion of Noah, it starts by talking about the line less traveled by us Jews of Shem's son Ham. And I should say that nothing is written for no reason in the Bible. And when it gives you a genealogy, it's because of what comes in the future. And many of us Jews will look at the genealogy in Genesis 10. And focus on Shem... with Semites. And that's where the name comes from. And we go down that path, and your book starts. And of course, I should say that your book is called "Zionism and the Black Church, Why Standing with Israel will be a Defining issue for Christians of color in the 21st Century". And it begins by traveling down this path less taken, of Ham. Welcome to Madlik. But if you could begin by touching upon our portion of the week, no off and and and discussing what you see in it, and maybe your mission. Dumisani Washington 03:06 Absolutely. And thank you, again, Rabbi for having me on. Yes, there are six chapters in "Zionism in the Black Church". And the first chapter is entitled The African Biblical Tie to Israel. And so we as I say, in the book started the beginning, right, we start at the beginning of the Scriptures, and so as you know, between the two portions of "Bereshi" I believe whether the towards the end is when Noah was first introduced, but of course in "Noach" there's the explanation of the nations where all the nations of the earth come from, from Noah's three sons Shem, Ham, and Jafet. And so we recognize that in the Scriptures, it is said that Ham has four sons. And there's a couple of unique things as you know, you read the book, that the scriptures that in the law of Moses deals, Psalms and some of the prophets, there's a term that's given several times in the scripture about Ham's descendants harms the sentence differently, then either Jafet or Shem. The land of Ham is actually something that's in the scriptures. And I don't know what that Hebrew word is ... "Aretz Ham" ... I never looked at that part of it, Rabbi but it talks about that, which is really interesting because there's not, to my knowledge, and I've kind of looked at for a little while, a similar rendering like the Land of Japhet or Land of Shem. Right? We're obviously the genealogy is there, right? But there's not the same thing that deals with the land and the peoples .... interesting and we've come to know that of the four sides of Hem, which are in order Kush, which you know, is where obviously the Hebrew for later on Ethiopia I believe is a Greek word, but from that region Mitzrayim, which is Egypt. Fut or Put which is Libya, and then Canaan, which is Canaan, right? So those four sons who come from him. But interestingly in the scriptures when it says land of Ham, it almost exclusively refers to Egypt and Ethiopia, what we would call today, Africa, right? This region. And again, you're talking about an antiquity these regions were much broader in size. And they are today if you look at the map today, you see Egypt as a small state and go down to the south, west, south east, and you'll see Ethiopia then you see Yemen, you see Kenya, well, obviously all those states weren't there that happened much later in modernity is particularly after the colonial period where those nations were carved up by a few states in Europe, and they were given certain names everything right, but these were regions in the Bible. And so Kush, the land of Kush, and the land of Mitzrayim, they're actually dealt with many, many times. Right? After the words obviously "Israel" and "Jerusalem". You have the word Ethiopia, I believe one of the Ethiopian scholar says some 54 times or something like that the word Ethiopia actually comes up in the Bible, obviously not as many times as Israel or Jerusalem but more than virtually any other nation other than Egypt. Right? So Egypt obviously that we know too. Africa plays a huge role in Israel's story right? The 430 years in slavery is in Africa, right? The Torah was received at Sinai: Africa. All these things happen in Africa. At some point God tells Jeremiah during the time of the impending doom, the exile that will happen at the hand of of Nebuchadnezzar and God says to to the Israelites to the Judeans, and "don't run down into Egypt, Egypt won't be able to save you." Why does he say that? Well, because historically the Israelites would go to Egypt when it until it got safer, right? For those Christians who may be on the call, you'll know that in the New Testament, Jesus, his parents take him down into Egypt because Herod's gonna kill him. Right? So there's this ongoing relationship between Ham and Shem, that's very intertwined. Moses, his wife, or his second wife, depending on how you interpret it.... Some of the sages. She's Ethiopian, right? She's kushite. So you have this interchangeable thing all the time, throughout the scriptures, but actually starts with the genealogy. And I'll say just one last thing, rabbis ..... we're opening up. This is also unfortunately, as I mentioned, the book as you know, the misnomer of the quote unquote, "Curse of Ham", as we know in the text, Ham is never cursed for what happens with Noah it is Canaan that is cursed. And he actually says, a curse that Canaan become a servant of servants shall he be, even though it was Ham who however you interpreted.... I've heard many different interpretations of "uncovered the nakedness he saw his father, naked," but somehow, for whatever reason, Noah cursed Canaan, not Ham. Who is Canaan... is one of him so's, his fourth son, as we know those who are listening, you may know that it is The Curse of Ham, quote, unquote, that has been used sadly, unfortunately, among many other things as a justification of the slavery of Africans. Right? That somehow, Africans are quote, unquote, "Cursed of Ham", therefore, the transatlantic slave trade, the trans Saharan slave trade, those things are somehow... God prescribed these things in the Bible, the curse was making him black. That's why he's like all those things that are nowhere in the text whatsoever, right? skin color is not in the text. slavery as a descendant of Ham. None of those things are in the text. What's in the text? Is that Canaan is cursed for that? And so we start there, Rabbi, and from there trying to walk out this whole Israel Africa thing. Adam Mintz 08:47 First of all WOW... thank you so much. I just want to clarify in terms of color, I think that's a very interesting thing. It's very possible that in the biblical period, everybody was dark. Dumisani Washington 09:00 Yes, sir. I mentioned that in the book as well. But yes, sir. Yes, yeah. All right. Sorry, Adam Mintz 09:04 I didn't see that in your book. But that's important, you know, because a lot of people are caught up in this color thing. Did you know that there's a distinction, we don't know it for sure but it makes sense that everybody was dark in those periods. So that the difference in color was not significant. So when, when Moses marries goes to Ethiopia, maybe is king of Ethiopia, and marries an Ethiopian. And the idea is that he marries a foreigner. The fact that she's darker may or may not have been true. Dumisani Washington 09:39 Yes, absolutely. No, thank you Rabbi. And I do touch on that, as well. We say in the terms in this modern term, even in my book, I use the term Christians of color and I don't usually use those terms just in when I'm speaking. I did it that way in the title so that it would be presented in a way that is going to deal with some provocative things but hopefully the people that they read it they'll see what I mean by that and if you're talking about the Israelite people, the Hebrew people they are what I call an afro Asiatic people. Israel is still at that at the point of where those two continents meet right Southwest Asia northeast Africa is landlocked with Egypt I tell people God opened up the Red Sea because he wanted to right ... He's big and bad and he can do what he wants to do but you can literally; I wouldn't recommend it obviously, but you could literally walk from Egypt to Israel and you always have been able to for 1000s of years that has always been the case and so you have a people that in terms of skin tone or whatever... Yes, absolutely, they would be what we would call today quote unquote people of color right and so unfortunately particularly in our country we all know race and colorism is such a huge topic and it's often so divisive and it's used in so many different ways and we know much of that goes back to whether slavery, Jim Crow, people being assigned work obviously based on how dark or light they are all of those things but the problem as you all know is that those things aren't in the Bible right? There's no God likes this person doesn't like this person, this person's dark this person's like, that type of thing. But again, that's what men do, we are fallen creatures, we read what we want to read into the text, and then we use it unfortunately, in a way that's not helpful. Let me just say and pause here, I can tell you that as a Christian pastor, over the years of my just delving into what we often call the Jewish roots of our faith, by studying Torah with rabbis and with other Jewish scholars, my faith has been more important to me than ever in that it helps me understand even more so right, what is the Hebrew in this word here? What do the sages say about that, that's been a fascinating journey for me, over the last 30 some odd years since I've been doing this particular work. Geoffrey Stern 11:58 So I just want to jump in, you said so many things. But there is in this verse that we are reading today, the word "ashkenaz", he was one of the children of of Shem, and you quote, an Ethiopian Rabbi named Ephraim Isaac, and this is a sample of some of the humor in your book or the sense of discovery. And somebody said to him, You don't look Jewish. And he said:, "Ethiopia is mentioned the Bible over 50 times, but Poland not once." And I feel like that was, that was a great line. And what it really talks to is our preconceptions, and your book, and your vision, and your mission breaks preconceptions of what it is to be a Jew, what the mission of a Jew is, but most importantly, what the relationship is between the Jewish people and the African people. And one of the things that you touched upon was the sense of Mitzraim and Kush , and in your book, you really talk about how many times they're interchangeable, because really, it is the same area and those of us who think about Mitzrayim, or Egypt, we focus on the Exodus story, we focus on the pharaoh story. But as you mentioned, the prophets later on, we're having to talk to the Jews about not going back, because ultimately, the experience in Egypt was always favorable, it was our neighbor, and it was our place of refuge. Abraham goes down there with Sarah twice, Jacob sends his kids down there during a time of famine. The relationship and the reference to a Ham and to Mitzrayim and to Kush is a very positive one. And yes, it does say in our week's parsha of all of the children, it says, "b'artzetam v'goyehem" , that they have a special language, and they have a family and they have a land. So the fact that we are neighbors is so important in the biblical context. So I said if we were going to walk down this wonderful path, and I would love for a second to talk about your mission about reuniting our two peoples and some of the challenges that you have. Clearly you don't speak to groups like us very much, although I think that I'm going to have an opportunity later to say that I think you should, because there's so much that we can learn. But what is your mission? How did you discover it? And what are your challenges? Dumisani Washington 14:40 Well, I'll do it concise, just because I don't want to take up too much time to firstly touch as much as we can. I am the founder and CEO of an organization called The Institute for Black Solidarity with Israel. I started it in 2013 but for about nearly seven years, I was not as active I started it. I did a lot of touring and a lot of speaking throughout the United States, churches, sometimes synagogues as well. And with this mission, it was a mission that was really placed in my heart. Actually in 2012, my first trip to Israel, I went as a guest of Christians United for Israel, I would come later on to join the staff with CUFA. But I was a guest pastor, I knew some friends who were part of the organization. And the short version of that story was my first tip ever, I'm in Israel, I'm at the Western Wall of the kotel. And I have a very intense experience in which I feel although Africa and Israel were passions of mine already, but the fusing of those two things together and a real work in which we continue to strengthen the alliance between Israel and Africa. And then obviously, in the States in the black and Jewish community. And there and finished the first edition of the book now, what you have there Rabbi is the second edition. And we started this organization for that very purpose to do both of those things continue to strengthen the black Jewish relationship, and also the Israel Africa Alliance. And so the challenges have been probably more than any other thing disinformation, right? There's a lot of false information that's there, when it comes to those things that would seek to divide and separate when you're talking about whether Africa Israel, now we're talking about the modern state of Israel, obviously, the rebirth of Israel in 1948. Israel's close ties with African nations throughout the continent, starting especially with Golda Meir, the foreign minister, all the way up into the 70s, where you have, as I mentioned in the book, Israel has more embassies throughout Africa than any other nation other than the United States, African economy, some of them are thriving, a great deal. You have a lot of synergy between the African nations and Israel. And after the Yom Kippur War in 1973, like never before Israel's enemies target that relationship between Israel and its African neighbors for different reasons. One of those is voting in the United Nations, right? And that became very much of a challenge. So one of the greatest challenges is, is information. What we share in the book and when we do our organization, we teach what we call an organization "Authentic History” is really simply telling what happened, how did something [happen]. Whether we're talking about biblically, whether we're discussing the parsha or we're talking about historically, right? We're talking about what the relationship was, and is. Why those connections there? And I'll just give one quick example if you're talking about black Jewish synergy in the United States, not just Dr. King's relationship with Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel in the civil rights community, not that it happened, right? But why, what was that synergy about? Right? So we've delve into that. We share from the documents from the Rabbinical Assembly; Dr. King's most famous words regarding Israel that were recorded 10 days before he was killed, right, why? And as a pastor, what we call a prophetic moment. Why 10 days before he's taken from us, is he telling the black community in the world to stand with Israel with all of our mind and protect its right to exist? Why is he saying these things? What's so important about it. And even the generation before? Why was it a black and Jewish man who changed the trajectory of this nation, Booker T. Washington, and Julius Rosenwald; millions of now first and second generation, slave; free slaves, right? but who had no access to education, not in a broader sense, and why that synergy saw some 5400 Rosenwald schools built throughout the segregated south. We touch on those historical points, and we delve into why that black Jewish synergy has been so powerful for so many people for so long. So that is our mission to strengthen those ties, because we believe that there's a great future ahead. Geoffrey Stern 19:05 You did such amazing research. I mean, I can tell you I never knew that Herzl said about Africa, "that once I have witnessed the redemption of Israel, my people, I wish to assist in the redemption of the Africans." And that is taking a small quote out of a full paragraph where the histories of the two people are so similar. I mean, it comes to us as a pleasant surprise, these synergies but it shouldn't because both our peoples have really traversed and continue to reverse the same pathway. And you quote Marcus Garvey and even Malcolm X and William Dubois. Malcolm X says "Pan Africanism will do for the people of African descent all over the world, the same that Zionism has done for Jews. All over the world." there was a sincere admiration for this miracle of a people returning to its land, we were talking before you came on about this whole kind of image of an ark. And it reminds you of Odesyuss... and it reminds you of all of these stories of man going on this heroic journey to find their their roots to come back, gain, experience and come back to their homeland, to their Aretz.. On the one hand, your job should be very simple. I guess, like any other fights, the closer you are, the bigger the friction can be. And there's nothing bigger than the friction between brothers. But it's such a challenge to address, as you say the misinformation. Dumisani Washington 20:51 Absolutely. And this is, again, why that's our primary goal. And then as part of what our mission is, we have launched here just recently, an initiative called The PEACE initiative. And PEACE is an acronym for Plan for Education, Advocacy, and Community Engagement, and the short version of that, again: We recruit young, black American and African young people from certain cities throughout the United States, a group of them, they go to a 16 week study course having some of the same conversations we're having now, including the modern state of Israel, ancient Israel, the United Nations, all these things that intersect when it comes to the black Jewish relations, then they will travel to Israel for about 10 days, and returned to the cities from where they've been recruited, and be the hub of black Jewish synergy in their communities. We believe with our organization that one of the reasons for the synergy that we've seen in the past, whether it was at the turn of the century with Booker T Washington, and Julius Rosenwald, or the mid part of the century with Dr. King and Rabbi Heschel, right now we are in different challenges, there are challenges that face particularly the more vulnerable black communities. And we see that that synergy could really address so many issues, whether it's education, whether it's jobs, those types of things, they can be really be addressed in a very holistic way. And really harnessing that synergy between the black and the Jewish community. And this is what we are doing. An Israel advocacy that is also rooted in these communities. And it's amazing. We see already rabbis and black pastors are working together all over the country. So that continues to happen. But we want to highlight those things even more and go even further in meeting some of the challenges what we call MC ambassadors will be leading that in different cities across the country. Geoffrey Stern 22:02 That's amazing. I want to come back to this sense of self-discovery and pride. And we always talk about it from our own perspective. So if you're African American, you want to make sure that your children believe that black is beautiful, that they come from an amazing heritage to be proud of who they are. And if you're Jewish, you want the same thing. But it seems to me, and you kind of cage the question in this way, "Why standing with Israel will be a defining issue for Christians of color", when we as Jews can see ourselves in the black community as we did during the civil rights movement that redeems us. And that empowers us. And I think what you're saying, and I don't want to put words into your mouth, but the same thing works in reverse. That in a sense, when the African community can recognize in Israel, its own story. It also can find a part of itself. Is there any truth there? Dumisani Washington 23:50 I believe so Rabbi. I believe that that's exactly as a matter of fact, what we saw was the synergy. So let me use the example and go back to the early 1900s with Booker T. Washington, Julius Rosenwald. The way that story happens, as you may know is that Booker T Washington writes his seminal book "Up From Slavery". Julius Rosenwald, who lives in Chicago at the time, is very active in his community. As a matter of fact, he was active, using his wealth; of those of you who don't know of Sears Roebuck fame, he is the one who took his company to this whole different level, economically and everything. And so with his wealth as a businessman, he's helping the Jews who are being persecuted in Russia. And one of his own testimony, I don't say this part of the book, but I kind of alluded to it, that here he is driving to work from the suburbs to where his factory is where his store is, and he's passing by throngs of black people who've left the South, right? looking for a better life, but they're living in very, very bad conditions, a lot of poverty and everything. And he says to himself, basically, if I'm going to do all of this to help Russian Jews right, way over the other side of the world, and I have this human crisis right here, where I live, I want to be able to do that and his, his Rabbi was Emile Hirsch, one of the founding members of the NAACP. Right? So his Rabbi encourages him. And we see this with our Jewish brothers and sisters all the time, see yourself, do help, do use your wealth, use your ability, right? To help. And so he reads Booker T. Washington's book he's taken with him, they begin to correspond. And Booker T. Washington says, Here's how you can help me I'm trying to build schools for my people who don't have access. And Rabbi to your point. Here is this man, this Jewish man who is very well aware of his history, he knows his People's History of persecution and struggle and triumph, right? Very much sees himself in that black story, and then he uses his ability. It's amazing even what he does; there's a Rosenwald film about Rosenwald schools, I believe his children were the ones who produced it. And they were saying that what he actually did was pretty ingenious, he put up a third of the money, the black community raised a third of the money, and then he challenged the broader white community to partner with them and bring the last third and that is how those Rosenwald Schools began. Because what he wanted to do, he wanted to see people come together, he wanted to see them all work together. Even though Booker T. Washington passes away only three years into that, right, that venture continues on Julius Rosenwald goes and sits on the board of the Tuskegee college, Tuskegee University, right? There's this long connection that's there. So in that struggle, the black American community, and he connected with this black American leader, the one of the most prominent of the time, Booker T, Washington, and they, like I tell people, changed the world. Like, can we imagine what the United States would have been if you had those millions of now freed slaves, right? with no access, and particularly those who are living in the Jim Crow South, no access whatsoever to education, Would the Harlem Renaissance have become what it become, with the black Wall Street, whether it was in Tulsa, whether in Philadelphia, these things that explode because of the access to education to now these first and second generations of people coming out of slavery, right? So I believe that that's the case and which is why I'll say again, here today, some of those challenges are there, some of the challenges are different than they were, obviously 50, 60, 70, 80 years ago, but we believe in organization that those challenges can be met with that same amazing synergy between the black and the Jewish community. Geoffrey Stern 27:26 A lot of people would argue that the rift or the change of the relationship between the African American community and the Jewish community was when the Jews or Israel stopped being looked at as the David in the Goliath story and we won the Six Day War. And how do you ensure that the facts are told, but also as you climb out of the pit, and as you achieve your goals, you shouldn't be necessarily punished for being successful. Success is not a sin. It's an inspiration. But it seems to me that's one of the challenges that we have, especially in the Jewish community for our next generation of children, who really do see ourselves not as the minority and don't see ourselves anymore mirrored in the African American community. Dumisani Washington 28:25 But one of my favorite things about the Jewish tradition of the Seder, is that you all lean and recline in the Seder today, and you tell your children, when we had the first one, we sat with our sandals on, our staff, in our hand, our belts ....because we were slaves leaving slavery, but now we are no longer. And that whole ethos of telling children, right? There's a strong parallel in the black American community, right? The whole point of going from struggle to a place where you can live in peace or at the very least, you recognize and realize the sacrifice of the people who came before you right? And I won't step into the controversial for lots of different reasons, we'll be able to unpack it, but let me just say this, for the black American experience when you're talking I often teach this in our sermons and other things that arc .... and let me say again, no, people are monolith. Obviously we just kind of put that on the table, all the Jews arent' alike all black Americans aren't alike..... Having said that, there is an overarching story when you talk about black Americans, who, from slavery to Jim Crow, segregation, black codes, all of those types of things to the modern era. And that story cannot accurately be told without talking about God and His people. In other words, when you're talking about the spirituals "Go Down Moses". "Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho" and I talked about that in the book, these songs that are rooted in the scriptures, most of the time in, in the Tanakh, our Jewish brothers and sisters' side of the Bible. I mean, sometimes in the New Testament, most of the time, these songs are being sung in hope. And that hope was realized, right? It's not an Negro spiritual song technically, but I put it in that category, part of the greatest one ever. I mean, how it culminates would be "Lift Every Voice and Sing" us a song that today has all these political things connected to it for lots of different unfortunate reasons. But when James Weldon Johnson wrote that song, wrote it as a poem? Those stanzas and anybody listening to this, I want to tell Google that Google Lift Every Voice and Sing"; just read the words. And this was a very powerful, very, very much God and God's love, and our hope and our faith and our trust, and our honoring the people who came before us; all of those things. And he talked about being free. Now, it's written in 1899. Right? You still have questions. I mean, there are no laws against lynching there going on, it's still crushing racism. However, he as a father in the black community is not only acknowledging what God has done, there's amazing things that are happening. One of the economist's that I quote, in my book, Thomas Sol said that the black community after slavery, and less than 50 years after slavery went from 0% literacy to almost 50% literacy, in that half a century, something economic historians say has never happened before. And now you're later on, you're talking about the black Wall Street, you're talking about black oil barons and landowners and factory owners, right? You're talking about this black middle class emerging. There's been no civil rights bill, right? There's been no Pell grants for school. These things don't even exist yet. We're talking about the 19 teens and the 1920s. You're talking about black people who had previously been slaves for hundreds of years. Why am I saying all that we as a people know full well; if we know our history, know full well what it is to come from all of those dire situations into a place of blessing, even though there may be struggles just like our Jewish brothers and sisters. We are convinced an organization that as we know, as a black community, particularly younger people that we are talking with, and teaching, as we know and appreciate our history, not the history that's regurgitated in terms of media and, and for political purposes. But truly our history, there is a great deal to be proud of about that. And to see, as I said in the sermon a couple of months ago, not only does it not a victim narrative, I descended from superheroes, my people went through slavery, Jim Crow, and still build on Wall Street still built the Tuskegee Institute. Still, we're soldiers who fighting for their own freedom in the Civil War. I mean, you're talking on and on and on things that they should have never been able to accomplish. When I consider what they accomplished with not very much help often. I recognize the greatness of the heritage that I come from, then that allows me to see an Israel rise like a phoenix from the ashes and not spurn that but recognize that our Jewish brothers and sisters have gone through millennia of this and Israel then to be celebrated, not denigrated. Adam Mintz 33:12 Thank you. We want to thank you. Your passion, and your insight is really brought a kind of a new insight to our discussion here. We really want to thank you, you know, we at Madlik we start on time and we end on time, Shabbat is about to begin in just a little while. Hopefully we'll be able to invite you back in the future as we continue this conversation. But I know I join Geoffrey and everybody on the call and everybody who's gonna listen to the podcast. Thank you for joining us and for really your insight and your passion. You really leave us with so much to think about as we begin the Shabbat. Dumisani Washington 33:51 Thank you. Thank you for having me. Adam Mintz 33:53 Thank you Geoffrey, Shabbat Shalom, everybody, Geoffrey Stern 33:55 Shabbat Shalom. And Reb Dumisani, you mentioned the songs. There's a whole chapter in your book about Negro spirituals. And as the rabbi said, w are approaching the Shabbat. And as you observe the Sunday we observed Saturday, but you know that the secret of living without a land or being on a difficult mission is that Sabbath, the strength of the Sabbath, and the connection between Noah and the word Menucha which is "rest" is obvious. And there was a great poet named Yehuda halevi. And he wrote a poem about the Yona; the dove that Noah sent out of the ark to see if there was dry land. And he he said that on Shabbat. Yom Shabbaton Eyn L'shkoach, "the day of Shabbat you cannot forget" Zechru l'reach Hanichoach" He also uses Reach Nichoach which is a pleasing scent,Yonah Matzah Bominoach, the yonah, the dove found on it rest v'shom ynuchu yegiah koach and there in the Shabbat , in that ark of rest on that ark of Sunday or Saturday is where we all gain strength. So I wish you continued success in all that you do. And that this Shabbat and this Sunday we all gather the strength to continue our mission. But I really do hope that we get another chance to study Torah together. And I really hope that all of the listeners go out and buy your book, Zionism in the Black Church because it is an absolute thrill. And I understand you're coming out with a new book that's going to talk more about the Jewish people and the various colors and flavors that we come in.

In today's episode, I bring you a beautiful, soulful conversation I had with Menucha Schwartz about a chassidic discourse that makes the case for the importance of a sense of a self in our relationship with G-d. Not as an end unto itself, but as a vehicle that takes us where we need to go. We explore why the word “yeshus” might not actually be the big, bad word in G-dly service, and what it looks like to allow your sense of self to evolve, as your reality becomes more aligned with G-d's.
This episode explores the lessons of Menucha and Ta'avah - comfort and the human impulse to undermine it. Photo by Elisa Stone on Unsplash
Join me for a fascinating interview with Menucha Polter . She shares with us her journey what it was like growing up as an orchid- being a highly sensitive person and how she perceived her childhood and how her parents effectively and successfully raised her and helped her through a difficult and challenging time in her life. This message of hope and love will inspire any teacher, principal and parent to be able to support and make a difference in the way they parent, teach, and lead! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/apositivepodcast/support

I Write Howie from TAOS Meeting Dear Howie, Sunday: I may not get to send this until I get back to the airport, because pay phones are the only kind they have here in Menucha. My cell phone doesn't ring when you call, and I just figured out how to retrieve messages, long distance on it this morning. I am distressed at the conference attendance thus far. There were only 15 people here last night compared to well over a 100 at last year's conference. Of the ones I talked to, three were not members and had no animals in their care, one had rescued 1 cow, and one had 4 chimps. Jan, who I love dearly and admire for all her years of dedication to domestic animal rescue, informed me that the life was just too tough and after spending 3 weeks in Fiji, she realized that this wasn't worth sacrificing her life for, and was going to throw in the towel. I haven't had time to talk to Craig about his leaving as Director, but I think that has a lot to do with the overwhelming feeling of despair in this group. I started getting down and feeling pressured at that last thought and looked out the window. My cabin has 3 beds and one is out in a bay window with breathtaking views of majestic trees in every direction. It was clear when the sun came up, but a mist is now rolling in and looks more Hollywood dramatic than real. How strange. How appropriate. This is a magical setting. The countryside is so lush and the landscape is awe inspiring, but this little camp is captivating. If you were here, I might never go home. The road in wound round and round the mountain giving me the feeling that I was being drawn deep inside the womb of Mother Nature. When the cabins came into sight, they were surrounded by trees that were laden with bright pink and white blossoms. The flowers that surrounded them, that dotted the grassy slopes and that clung to the stone steps and ledges could only cry out in weak competition. It reminds me of Costa Rica where everything is so full of life, except that I don't see squirrels nor do I hear birds. It's too freakin' cold. The shuttle driver for the 30 minute drive from Portland to the wilderness was a tiny little immigrant from Katmandu named Delipe. He told me he is the richest immigrant in America because he lives in the most beautiful place in the world and has seen more of America than most of her native inhabitants. He drives things and people from NY to Seattle and has settled in Portland for the past 4 years giving tours and running shuttle services. Every free moment he spends in search of some beautiful place he has never seen before. His enthusiasm was contagious. He was just astounded at all of the opportunity we Americans let pass us by. I asked if he thought it is because of him being an immigrant that makes him more keenly aware of the possibilities and he said he thinks it is more of an individual thing. He said he was the richest man in Nepal too, because he knew how to enjoy himself every day. On the plane from Atlanta to Salt Lake City I sat next to Mike Basile who is the CFO for Great Harvest Bread Company. It was interesting to hear his version of what is happening since Nido Qubein took over the company. Mike has been with the company for 7 years and really loved Pete and Laura Wakeman. He and the COO and some of the other 30 employees had tried to buy the company, but were outbid by Qubein and his partner (whose name escapes me at the moment). The COO McMakin quit and the company was stunned initially and fearful that the hippie style management they had come to embrace would be dramatically changed by this "big city, buttoned down, motivational speaker". To Qubein's credit, he didn't try to change something that was already working so well and eventually earned the respect of the management team. Mike really likes him and got a kick out of hearing how fondly Qubein spoke of the company when he spoke to us a few weeks ago. There is a store opening in Tampa in July and he gave me the owner's name so that I can contact them about doing a cross promotion with them. Many of their stores have a Baker's Day where the proceeds are given to charity. If we become their local charity, we can offer them tour passes to give away to their customers. It's not a big thing, but every little relationship counts. I finished the book "How To Be a Great Communicator" on the plane and wrote two articles for the animal magazines from it. This sort of setting, with no phones, no T.V.s, no radios, no people and NO distractions is wonderful for that kind of creativity. I wish I were better at writing as it is something I could really enjoy doing for a living. Speaking of doing something for a living; thank you for letting me know you found my assets. I woke up thinking that I have slept in parking lots that were more comfortable than this bed. Then I was aware that my feet were on the radiator and were the only part of my body that wasn't frozen stiff. There was no scent of coffee in the air and when I managed to roll over, I hit a wall, not the warmth of your body. Already off to a really bad start, the next thought in my mind was that transferring my mother's Notesmith program into excel and trying to recreate the spread sheet was going to be a task of nightmarish proportions. I use that as a weekly to monthly guide to make sure that I am staying on track and recovering, as I should. I was so relieved to get your message saying that the information had not been lost. I wrote a poem to you about the proposal and all of the fear and anxiety that went into asking you to marry me. I had not sent it, because I feel the subject is a little weird for both of us still, and now realize that it too was lost. I could probably relive all of those emotions, but don't know that I really want to. I am happy with the way things are and enjoying every moment with you. In stark contrast, I am really NOT enjoying these moments away from you. Enough whining. I am going to do some work on the Business Plan, (if I can get my mind off you for an hour or so). Sunday evening: I called Jamie to check in and she said our volunteer in Chicago who now runs her own sanctuary for displaced fawns had called about a pet bobcat that had been relinquished to her and had not eaten for two days. Cats really hate being abandoned, despite their bravado, and will not eat for a couple of weeks out of depression. In response to Lynda's asking if the cat was in danger of dying, Jamie, in her typically concise way said, "I told her: Minutes without air, days without water and weeks without food, but that if she emailed you, you would expound upon that" . I had forgotten that I told Jamie I would leave the alarm off, so when she went to feed the cats she set it off because she doesn't have the code. She said she could just see her and Daniel sitting in prison until I get home on Tuesday because she can't prove she is related to me and the only two people she knows who have the code are both out of town and unreachable. Brinks called the house and she explained the situation to them and much to my amazement, they shut off the alarm remotely and did not send the police. They left a message on my cell and on Jamie's home phone (as it was a listed contact #) saying there had been an alarm. She said her voice was shaking so bad that they must have believed her. In all of the excitement, the cats didn't get wet food, so armed with the code she is going back to the island to feed them tonight. Today's sessions were worth the trip here. Most of it was stuff I knew or expected, but it was validating to see others who are more financially successful saying that it worked for them. Farm Sanctuary has a 3.2 million dollar annual budget and says the #1 method for reaching that goal is direct mail. We have never done that. The expert everyone uses was one of the speakers today and I had his contact info to call him, but was waiting to develop a more compelling piece of literature before attempting it. There is only about a 1% return on what can run 500.00 @ 1000, but it is deemed by Farm Sanctuary and Wildlife Rescue (they rehab 7000 animals each year) to be the greatest investment they make into growing their membership and resulting funds. Well, wonders never cease! Lynn Cuny, Founder of Wildlife Rescue in San Antonio came up to me during dinner and said that she would take our single female Lemur. I went into my diatribe over how much I spend on vet bills for those danged Lemurs tearing each other up and she said they are enclosing 5 acres and letting them run wild and that she would be happy to take all of mine if I wanted her to. I asked what I could do for her and she said just get them there. When I explained that she was doing me a HUGE favour, and that I would be happy to take any problem cats she had, she said that if she had a cat call she would ask me to take it. Sending the Lemurs to Texas would be better for them and would free up 6 cages that could take small cats, perhaps even the Sand Cats. That would move them out of the lion and tiger area and allow another big cat-a-tat or two there. That would eliminate 13 omnivores from our feeding route and eliminate the USDA requirements of daily enrichment because of them being primates. It would free up cage space, food requirements, volunteer and staff time and paperwork. Lynn has always been rather self righteous with me because she doesn't think we should be open to the public so she really caught me off guard when she came up to me privately a little later and said, "I have always wanted to tell you, but never had a moment that was opportune; I think you are just the prettiest woman I have ever met. You are so feminine and so graceful and you always look so, well, just so pretty!" Monday: Today's topics were most heated around the issue of sending a consistent message. Everyone here agreed that we should not serve dead animals as food to guests at our sanctuary sponsored functions, but that was only because all of the big cat and wolf groups chose not to attend this year after months of heated debate on the subject via email. The other hot button is whether or not we should allow human interaction with the animals in our care, and if we do, what message that sends. The farm people generally accept that it's okay for people to hug a pig, but that it sends the wrong message for people to pet a bobcat and yet the issue is the same in both worlds: If people touch them and fall in love with them, will they want one as a pet? There is a much bigger problem with people owning potbellied pigs than bobcats. We never did resolve that one and just agreed to disagree for now. We also discussed how to run a sanctuary and have a life and most of the sanctuary owners are single women with no social life. The few who have mates said how much it helped just to have someone to lean on from time to time who understood their passion, even if they didn't share it. The overall message was that we can be much more creative and productive if we can take time away to regenerate. I brought up the issue of a run away board getting off track and doing things that were easier, but not the best choices for the animals. It was suggested that the by laws be written well enough to insure the board cannot get too far off track. This is where life gets really weird. The next portion was closed to only the 4 (of 6) TAOS Board members and the 7 present accredited facilities. The term is up for four of the board members in June and Craig is leaving as President. The economy has hit TAOS hard and they have dropped from 100k per year to 35k per year to support the President and the operation. They asked for our input as to what we felt should be TAOS' focus during this lean time and how we could suggest ways to help it to that end. I said that I appreciated them coming to us with this problem and that perhaps each of the 52 accredited members could promote them better knowing that they are facing hard times. Lynn (the original founder of TAOS and one of the board who is remaining this year) asked if I would sit on the board. I said, "no". Afterwards I came up to her privately and thanked her for honouring me but reminded her that because we are open to the public and allow interaction, we don't even qualify as accredited members under their new guidelines and that for me to sit on the board just exposes TAOS to attack. I told her I deeply believe in what TAOS is doing and that I will do all I can to see it succeed, because it is very much needed, but that for me to do so in any formal capacity would be a detriment to the cause. Lynn said it is that very attitude that caused her to ask me publicly because I am the only person in the room that isn't looking for how I can benefit, but rather, how I can help. I cried. Some of these issues are so frustrating. I can't close to the public because that is how our cats get fed. Even if I could, I am not sure I would, because I believe that people are moved to make a difference when they connect to an animal. Lynn obviously is able to feed her animals and educate the public without the exposure, but I have no way to measure the efficacy of our approaches against each other. In jest I told her that the only benefit to me sitting on the board with her would be as an example to all of the factions that any of us can get along if Lynn and Carole can sit at the same table and not pull each other's hair out. I joined TAOS for both selfish and altruistic reasons. The selfish reason was to help us establish credibility and to align ourselves with an organization capable of changing laws. In it's current state of ill health, TAOS cannot perform either of the functions that I need. The alternative is to seek accreditation by the American Zoological Association AZA because with its 2000 members and multi million-dollar budget, augmented by Disney, it can propose legislation to prevent private ownership of exotic cats. AZA's reason for doing it is to eliminate the competition so that they will be the only breeders and exhibitors in town, but frankly, I don't care how selfish their reasons are if it gets the job done. The only reason AZA is willing to accredit a place like mine is that they need places to dump last year's babies that are AZA accredited so as to fend off the animal rights groups. They denied us two years ago and stated their reasons as being we didn't have enough paid staff, we allowed unsupervised contact with our cats and they hadn't known us long enough. They have never passed anyone the first time anyway, I am told. They asked me to reapply. The only outstanding issue is the paid vs. volunteer staff. I feel certain they would approve us this time, but don't know how long we could stay within the fold when they realize they can't dump their animals here. I don't know if our annual dues of 1000.00 would be worth enough to them to let us be of no use. I have always wanted to infiltrate them with our message of compassion and respect for all life and persuade them by our good example. Our volunteers have done that through the American Association of Zoo Keepers AAZK and Anissa and Brian are the local chapters President and Secretary. This seems to me to be a matter of ethics, or perceived ethics. What would you do? Jamie always has to make tough decisions when I am away. One of our Bengal Cats, Atlas, who runs loose at Easy Street and is a big favourite of the volunteers, was just diagnosed with FIV. The vet biopsied a tumor and told Jamie that if it is cancerous she should euthanize him and if it's not he has to spend the rest of his life in a cage, under quarantine. Atlas came from a breeding facility where he was kept in a very small cage and he hates being caged. Jamie has the luxury of being able to wait until the biopsy comes back in 5 days to make that decision of whether or not to kill an animal rather than cage it. I will be back by then, but it really bums her out when she has to deal with these issues. She had to put Venus the black leopard down the last time I went anywhere. It is more than how she and the cat feels about it, but also includes how she can relate to all of the differing opinions of the volunteers who aren't dedicated enough to take him home with them, but who will insist any life is better than no life. These choices never get any easier. The conference is definitely over at noon tomorrow and I will head back to the airport to see if I can get on standby. I have to be out of the room by 10:00 am anyway and it is too cold for me to hang out here. I was flying and driving for 10 hours to get here so even under optimal circumstances I couldn't expect to be home before 1:00 am on Wednesday. I only live 5 miles or so from the airport, so I will call a cab. I have spent more time staring at trees and thinking in the last few days than I have in the last few years. Make that decades. Through it all I just keep lifting prayers of thanks to God for allowing me this luxury of spending time with you. I have to wipe away the tears whenever I stop and think about how happy you make me. Because of your discomfort with the words, I just can't tell you enough how much you mean to me and even if you could stand to hear it, I couldn't say it enough. I don't know how to show it enough either. - Carole Howie Is My Rock Tuesday Morning 6:00 am I awoke from a dream about you and before even rolling out of bed; I wanted to capture every detail. I was a dandelion on the top of a grassy knoll. The wind was cold and blustery and just seemed to come from every direction. My head (ego) was so disproportionately large for my frail little stem (backbone or ability) that the gusts were knocking my big, yellow, flower head into the grass. Every time I managed to lean into the wind and take a look out from my vantage point on the knoll, however, I felt privileged to have this vantage point from which I could see the mountains in the distance, the lakes and the expanse of beauty in every direction. As I looked down the mountainside I saw clusters of dandelions, daisies, roses, irises, lilies and other beautiful flowers that I couldn't name. Because they were in large, closely knit groups, they were only slightly swaying in the breeze. I still felt it was worth it to stand up here alone, just for the view. Behind me, as if the wind blew away the dust, a rock arose. The rock (you) came right up behind me. At first, I feared, that the wind would smash my head against the rock and that would be the end of me. Instead the rock blocked the wind and sheltered me. As the wind pressed in on me from the unsheltered side, I could just lean back against the rock until the gale had passed. In moments of stillness, I could stretch out and see the future because I felt deeply rooted beneath the rock and safe from any storm. Thank you for being my rock. With Love, Carole Howie writes Carole: The dandelion dream is just beautiful. I don't always feel like much of a rock, but loved the story, and very beautifully written. I'm very sorry you lost the poem. I hope you find it. I love your poems. Your the best darn lookin' dandelion I ever saw! I took the personality test. My highest score was Helper, followed by Achiever, then Loyalist and Challenger. Not sure how this Wing and Integration stuff works. I agonized over a few questions because it can depend so much on how I feel that day. That variation has been a considerable source of aggravation for me. - The rock Thank you for taking the time to do this. I am so pleased with the results. Part of the variation you mentioned is inherent in the personality types. A 2 will "go to 8" under stress and will "go to 4" when relaxed. The three is your wing. The 3 goes to 6 when relaxed so your score made perfect sense, even if this sentence doesn't. 2s are nurturers and caregivers and pretty easy going unless someone emperils the subject of the 2s nurturing. Then the 2 becomes more like an 8 and can be a frightful opponent. 8s believe in fairness and protecting the underdog. When the 2 is happy and feeling content they become more like 4s and are very creative. Your wing is that of the classic over achieving 3, but when the 3 is at it's best it becomes more like the 6 and is also very loyal. The combination really describes you well. You are loving and giving, protective, loyal and you do your best for the people in your life. What more could anyone want? I am so happy! - Carole I just told my mother to ask the tenants in the house up front to move within the next 3 months. I had offered them use of the house for 1 year while they found one to buy (she is a realtor and her mother is a broker) at a reduced rate of 500.00 per mo. because I like their kids. They have been there two years and show no sign of wanting to move. I told Jamie and Daniel they can then move in there and we will use their house at Easy Street for the gift shop, conference center and offices and transform the current gift shop into an office for Anissa and the Education center. Whether we move or stay really doesn't matter as far as moving Jamie and Daniel because they have wanted off the property and shouldn't be putting so much money to make their house livable, when the one up front would more than meet their needs. I am just telling you because they would be our new neighbors. They would have their own pool, so we probably wouldn't see them, except on the tennis court.
Study Guide Pesachim 44 Today's daf is sponsored by Sharon Hausdorff in memory of her mother, Minna Friedman, Menucha bat Moshe Yehezkel on her 10th yahrzeit. And by Susan Cashdan in memory of her dear father, Yitzchak ben Moshe Chuna on his 12th yahrzeit. He so inspired me with a deep love of Hebrew and lifelong learning, enabling me to work here in Israel and to learn Daf Yomi. And by Susan Shabsels in honor of Elisheva Rappaport. "Ellie, thank you for making our Daf Yomi meetings happen each week!" In what cases do we say that heiter joins issur for requisite amounts - meaning if you eat an item that the forbidden item is mixed into the permitted item, do we measure the requisite amount needed for liability from the whole mixture? Rabbi Yochanan and Zeiri disagree about when this principle is used. Abaye questions Rabbi Yochanan's opinion (quoted by Rav Dimi) from a mishna in Tvul Yom 2:3 regarding impurity of a porridge with teruma spices mixed in. According to Rabba bar bar Chana, it becomes impure because if one ate an olive bulk of it, one would be liable. Is it because of heiter joins the issur or it is because one ate a whole olive bulk of the spices? Rav Dimi answers that it is the latter and Abaye asks several questions on his theory. IF Rabbi Yochanan derived from the Nazir the laws of heiter combining with issur only for a nazir, how does that work with a braita that derives the law for flavor not being nullified in a mixture, which is also derived from the same word by nazir? He must hold like Rabbi Akiva who holds the same as him with regards the previous principle. So where does he derive laws about flavor not being nullified? A number of suggestions are brought - milk and meat, kashering pots. How do the rabbis react to his proof if there derive it from nazir?

Mazal Tov Nosson & Menucha! In memory of Miriam bas Yosef. Yud Tes Kislev. Yosef's abnegation for Honoring his father. Condolences, a daughter in law is like a daughter.
Check out our full review over on Three if by Space! Mike's Interpretations of Music Use in the Episode: Mike Scheinberg is a long-time Daley Review listener and when he offered to give us some incite on this episode's music, we took him up on it. Avinu Malkeinu - (14:00ish): Right after the turbulence on the plane scares everyone and Matt gives that smug look and shit-eating grin. Fades into a shot of the plane and a closeup on what I can surmise is Daniel 6:22 -- "My God hath sent His angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me; forasmuch as before Him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.'" Then Matt's nose bleeds right on that passage. Avinu Malkeinu is a Jewish prayer said most commonly on Rosh Hashanah (Jewish New Year) and Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement), both very solemn days. It literally means "Our Father, Our King," and the rest of the passage is "Be gracious and answer us, for we have little merit. Treat us generously and with kindness, and be our help." This is practically one of the last things said on Yom Kippur when the proverbial "gates" are closing for God to inscribe Their people into the Book of Life. Sort of like the pleading to God one might do several days out from a cataclysmic event on October 14. It relates a bit to the passage from Daniel in that it's a plea for life. Fun Fact: Phish does a really rockin' version of Avinu Malkeinu in concert. B'Motz'ei Menucha - (22:00ish): Matt is washing all the blood off of him. This song is recited at midnight on the Saturday night / Sunday morning before Rosh Hashanah, and so incredibly few Jews even know about it -- to the point where I (Mike) need to do more research from a different prayerbook. Ashrei Yoshvei Beitecha - (35:00ish): Matt takes off his space blanket and looks for the manifest - right before he utters Frasier's name. "Ashrei Yoshvei Beitecha." This is Psalms 84:5 -- "Happy is the man whose strength is in Thee; In whose heart are the highways." It's the introduction to a prayer said twice a day. It's more along the lines of a warm-up prayer; opening one's heart to gather strength and faith. As for the use of it in this scene? Not sure. Maybe it's a ramp up to the actual ritual of Frasier? Avinu Malkeinu - (44:00ish): Matt decides to get the wheelchair and the axe to capture David Burton. Perhaps this is another reference to a plea "to God," to have God's full attention. The song where Matt is cleaning up his bloody nose: This is obscure enough that I had to go to a rabbi and liturgy professor at the Jewish Theological Seminary! Fortunately, he also happens to be my older brother. The translation is: "When the day of rest departs, we approach You- extend Your ear from heaven, where You are enthroned upon praise, [chorus] to listen to joyful song and prayer." The reason it's used in liturgy is because it is said at midnight after the end of the Sabbath. The theme here is that God opens up and listens to 'song and prayer.' Perhaps it's a prelude for Matt going to David Burton so he can be heard. From Daley Review: Thanks, Mike! We would have never made those connections without your help!

Madlik Podcast – Torah Thoughts on Judaism From a Post-Orthodox Jew
Jewish Boats - Noah A dialog with dramatist, playwright and philosopher Michael Posnick on the motif of a ship, a place and a time of refuge in the Hebrew Bible, in the poetry and songs of Yehuda Halevi and in the Yiddish poetry of Asher Penn. Notes: The ark-teva as the first temple Rav sacks: In one other place in the Torah there is the same emphasis on precise dimensions, namely, Noah’s ark: “So make yourself an ark of cypress wood. Make rooms in it and coat it with pitch inside and out. This is how you are to build it: The ark is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high. Make a roof for it, leaving below the roof an opening one cubit high all around” (Gen. 6: 14-16). The reason is similar to that in the case of the tabernacle. Noah’s ark symbolised the world in its Divinely-constructed order, the order humans had ruined by their violence and corruption. God was about to destroy that world, leaving only Noah, the ark and what it contained as symbols of the vestige of order that remained, on the basis of which God would fashion a new order. See: http://chiefrabbi.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Terumah-5772.pdf and https://madlik.com/2015/10/17/of-noahs-ark-cathedrals-in-time-and-jewish-ships-parshat-noach/ Menucha temple sanctuary ט כִּי לֹא-בָאתֶם, עַד-עָתָּה--אֶל-הַמְּנוּחָה, וְאֶל-הַנַּחֲלָה, אֲשֶׁר-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ, נֹתֵן לָךְ. 9 for ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which the LORD your God giveth thee. י וַעֲבַרְתֶּם, אֶת-הַיַּרְדֵּן, וִישַׁבְתֶּם בָּאָרֶץ, אֲשֶׁר-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם מַנְחִיל אֶתְכֶם; וְהֵנִיחַ לָכֶם מִכָּל-אֹיְבֵיכֶם מִסָּבִיב, וִישַׁבְתֶּם-בֶּטַח. 10 But when ye go over the Jordan, and dwell in the land which the LORD your God causeth you to inherit, and He giveth you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in safety; יא וְהָיָה הַמָּקוֹם, אֲשֶׁר-יִבְחַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם בּוֹ לְשַׁכֵּן שְׁמוֹ שָׁם--שָׁמָּה תָבִיאוּ, אֵת כָּל-אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי מְצַוֶּה אֶתְכֶם: עוֹלֹתֵיכֶם וְזִבְחֵיכֶם, מַעְשְׂרֹתֵיכֶם וּתְרֻמַת יֶדְכֶם, וְכֹל מִבְחַר נִדְרֵיכֶם, אֲשֶׁר תִּדְּרוּ לַיהוָה. 11 then it shall come to pass that the place which the LORD your God shall choose to cause His name to dwell there, thither shall ye bring all that I command you: your burnt-offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow unto the LORD. See: http://otzma1.blogspot.com/2011/10/blog-post_25.html Ark and tabernacle …. Regarding similarities in the Genesis 1 account of Creation, the Exodus 25ff. account of the building of the Tabernacle, and the account of the building of the ark, Sailhamer writes (J. H. Sailhamer, Genesis, p. 82, see also table on p. 84): Each account has a discernible pattern: God speaks (wayyo’mer/wayedabber), an action is commanded (imperative/jussive), and the command is carried out (wayya’as) according to God’s will (wayehi ken/kaaser siwwah ‘elohim). The key to these similarities lies in the observation that each narrative concludes with a divine blessing (wayebarek, Genesis 1:28, 9:1; Exodus 39:43) and, in the case of the Tabernacle and Noah’s Ark, a divinely ordained covenant (Genesis 6:8; Exodus 34:27; in this regard it is of some importance that later biblical tradition also associated the events of Genesis 1-3 with the making of a divine covenant; cf. Hosea 6:7). Noah, like Moses, followed closely the commands of God and in so doing found salvation and blessing in his covenant. See: The Ark and the Tent: Temple Symbolism in the Story of Noah [especially notes 134-] Fortunately, there are those like me, who have Shabbat on the mind and who read the story of Noah’s Ark (Genesis 8) and found Shabbat: ח וַיְשַׁלַּח אֶת-הַיּוֹנָה, מֵאִתּוֹ–לִרְאוֹת הֲקַלּוּ הַמַּיִם, מֵעַל פְּנֵי הָאֲדָמָה. 8 And he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground. ט וְלֹא-מָצְאָה הַיּוֹנָה מָנוֹחַלְכַף-רַגְלָהּ, וַתָּשָׁב אֵלָיו אֶל-הַתֵּבָה–כִּי-מַיִם, עַל-פְּנֵי כָל-הָאָרֶץ; וַיִּשְׁלַח יָדוֹ וַיִּקָּחֶהָ, וַיָּבֵא אֹתָהּ אֵלָיו אֶל-הַתֵּבָה. 9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him to the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth; and he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her in unto him into the ark. י וַיָּחֶל עוֹד, שִׁבְעַת יָמִים אֲחֵרִים; וַיֹּסֶף שַׁלַּח אֶת-הַיּוֹנָה, מִן-הַתֵּבָה. 10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark. יא וַתָּבֹא אֵלָיו הַיּוֹנָה לְעֵת עֶרֶב, וְהִנֵּה עֲלֵה-זַיִת טָרָף בְּפִיהָ; וַיֵּדַע נֹחַ, כִּי-קַלּוּ הַמַּיִם מֵעַל הָאָרֶץ. 11 And the dove came in to him at eventide; and lo in her mouth an olive-leaf freshly plucked; so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth. יב וַיִּיָּחֶל עוֹד, שִׁבְעַת יָמִיםאֲחֵרִים; וַיְשַׁלַּח, אֶת-הַיּוֹנָה, וְלֹא-יָסְפָה שׁוּב-אֵלָיו, עוֹד. 12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; and she returned not again unto him any more. ------ The Kuzari - In Defense of the Despised Faith Yom Shabbaton יוֹם שַבָּתוֹן יוֹם שַׁבָּתוֹן אֵין לִשְׁכּֽוֹחַ, זִכְרוֹ כְּרֵֽיחַ הַנִּיחֹֽחַ, יוֹנָה מָצְאָה בוֹ מָנֽוֹחַ, וְשָׁם יָנֽוּחוּ יְגִֽיעֵי כֹֽחַ. היוֹם נִכְבָּד לִבְנֵי אֱמוּנִים, זְהִירִים לְשָׁמְרוֹ אָבוֹת וּבָנִים, חָקוּק בִּשְׁנֵי לֻחוֹת אֲבָנִים, מֵרֹב אוֹנִים וְאַמִּיץ כֹּֽחַ. יוֹנָה מָצְאָה בוֹ מָנֽוֹחַ, וְשָׁם יָנֽוּחוּ יְגִֽיעֵי כֹֽחַ. וּבָֽאוּ כֻלָּם בִּבְרִית יַֽחַד, נַעֲשֶׂה וְנִשְׁמָע אָמְרוּ כְּאֶחָד, וּפָתְחוּ וְעָנוּ יְיָ אֶחָד, בָּרוּךְ הַנּוֹתֵן לַיָּעֵף כֹּֽח. יוֹנָה מָצְאָה בוֹ מָנֽוֹחַ, וְשָׁם יָנֽוּחוּ יְגִֽיעֵי כֹֽחַ. דִּבֶּר בְּקָדְשׁוֹ בְּהַר הַמּוֹר, יוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי זָכוֹר וְשָׁמוֹר, וְכָל פִּקּוּדָיו יַֽחַד לִגְמוֹר, חַזֵּק מָתְנַֽיִם וְאַמֵּץ כֹּֽח. יוֹנָה מָצְאָה בוֹ מָנֽוֹחַ, וְשָׁם יָנֽוּחוּ יְגִֽיעֵי כֹֽחַ. הָעָם אֲשֶׁר נָע כַּצֹּאן תָּעָה, יִזְכּוֹר לְפָקְדוֹ בְּרִית וּשְׁבוּעָה, לְבַל יַעֲבָר בָּם מִקְרֵה רָעָה, כַּאֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּֽעְתָּ עַל מֵי נֹֽחַ. יוֹנָה מָצְאָה בוֹ מָנֽוֹחַ, וְשָׁם יָנֽוּחוּ יְגִֽיעֵי כֹֽחַ. Translation: Fragrant thy memories, O sweet Sabbath day, Fragrant as incense, never to fade away; The wandering dove doth find her nest In thee, the toilers cease their weary quest. Deep in thy children's hearts enshrined lies thy fame. Sires and sons faithful, linked, thy love proclaim, Linked thy love proclaim. Strong, in ne'er-waning might, He graved thy name; Graved on twin tablets, still stands His sure behest. The wandering dove doth find her nest In thee, the toilers cease their weary quest. Then to His covenant, abiding in stone, 'We will swear fealty' answered they all as one, Answered they all as one. 'He is our Lord' they cried, 'eternal His throne,' Peace to all care-worn He granteth, His name be blest. The wandering dove doth find her nest In thee, the toilers cease their weary quest. Once on Moriah's peak He bade His folk heed; 'Keep ye my Sabbaths, hallowed in word and deed, Hallowed in word and deed. Sacred her precepts all, for you, for your seed, Strengthen the feeble, comfort my folk oppressed.' The wandering dove doth find her nest In thee, the toilers cease their weary quest. We are Thy chosen flock, remember us still. Long have we wandered, O soon Thine oath fulfil, O soon Thine oath fulfil. Thou who did'st calm the flood, preserve us from ill, Safe in green pastures, safe by the brooks to rest. The wandering dove doth find her nest In thee, the toilers cease their weary quest.

I learned how to design ships Warships and pleasure ships. Now after thousands of years It is time to build a ship for the wandering Jews. A wondrous ship, with a brand new design With all the latest modern technology A ship that can swim deep under water And soar over the stars. A new ship for a very old people Who have more than once been swallowed by the sea, Hounded from shore to shore And drowned like scab-ridden rats. I will build you a ship, my brothers, Refugees from the Shturme and the St Louis Upon whose heads has fallen the rage Of all the vampires and wild beasts I will build you a ship, An entire fleet, And I will hide it deep in the depths of the sea; It will come to save you, When it hears the cry of the ancient wandering Jews.
