1)     Our Chabad House is launching a Charidy campaign in two weeks time. My father-in-law loaned a substantial amount of money to a colleague and he said: “Don't forget the upcoming Charidy”. Was that a charge of Ribbis? [1]2)     In a non-Chabad Shul, when the Chazan says Birkas Kohanim, should I [quietly] say Omein - as per our minhag, or should I say כן יהי רצון – as per the Shul's minhag?[2]3)     Similarly, in Kaddish – should I answer בריך הוא or Omein? [3]4)     A Yisroel became a father on Shabbos afternoon. At Mincha he wishes to make a מי שבירך for his wife and the newborn. Is that done after שלישי before Hagbeh?[4]5)     The front of our house has a large gate that rolls to the left to allow a car to enter. Within that there is a small door that has a lintel.

How did you sleep on Thursday night? When I first learned that Israel's war with Iran had begun in earnest, I, like so many of you, did not sleep much at all. Because of the 7-hour time difference between Boston and Israel, in the early hours of Friday morning I was able to reach Micah Goodman, our beloved teacher and friend who lives in Kfar Adumim, twenty minutes outside of Jerusalem. What Micah had to say was both inspiring and concerning at the same time.First the inspiring part. Micah shared that Israel's attack on June 13 exceeded its wildest dreams. As Micah put it, the start of the war was all of Israel's best military victories—the Six Day War, Entebbe, the destruction of Iraq's nuclear reactor in Osirak in 1981, the exploding pagers that crippled Hezbollah—all at once. Using intelligence, covert operations, Mossad agents on the ground in Iran and drone technology, Israel was able to eliminate Iran's leading generals and nuclear scientists in their homes, in their beds, in targeted attacks, in which Israel did not also kill their families. Why were Iran's leading generals and nuclear scientists at home, in the first place? Why weren't they in a bunker? Micah answers his own question by observing that we cannot prepare for something that has never before happened in history. What Israel accomplished on June 13 had never before been accomplished in the history of war, the kind of chutzpah, planning, skill and savvy that allowed these targeted assassinations. Add to that Israeli fighter jets that evaded Iranian air defenses, allowing Israel to attack more than 100 sites. Micah observed that Israel's morale is very high.But there is a but. Micah and his wife and their teen-age daughters, like so many Israeli families, spent their night in a bunker. Shul throughout Israel has been cancelled. Micah's public lectures for next week have been cancelled. All public events have been cancelled. Since the airport is closed, Israelis are worrying about food. Where will their food come from? Israel imports much of its food supply. He went to the grocery store on Friday morning, worried about whether his family will have enough food, and the store was jam-packed with nervous grocery shoppers, and the shelves were largely empty.So there is edge in Israel. Iran remains formidable. The Houthis remain formidable. There still is Hamas. There still is Hezbollah. While the beginning of the war could not have gone any better, where it will go next, nobody knows. There is what Micah calls “radical uncertainty” about what this war will mean for Israel's future and for the region.What do we do with this complex picture? How do we understand and respond to it? What does it mean to us? What does it ask from us?

Surprisingly, despite multiple episodes of The Jewish Drinking Show, this episode is the first to focus on kiddush in synagogues.Biography of GuestProf. Shaul is a senior lecturer in the Department of History at Herzog College. She won the Shazar prize for research in Jewish History (2016). Her book Holocaust Memory in Ultraorthodox Society in Israel was published in Hebrew (Yad Ben-Zvi and Yad Vashem, 2014) and English (Indiana University Press, 2020). Her work about different aspects of the religious commemoration of the Holocaust has been published in various journals, e.g., Yad Vashem Studies, Jewish Culture and History, Journal of Israeli History, and many more. During 2016-2018, she was a scholar-in-residence at The Melbourne Holocaust Center. While living in Melbourne, Prof. Shaul was exposed to the central role of the communal kiddush in shul and started to study it, yielding the first chapter of her Kiddush study project on kiddush clubs. Support the showThank you for listening!If you have any questions, suggestions, or more, feel free to reach out at Drew@JewishDrinking.coml'chaim!

In this episode of The Franciska Show, host Franciska discusses the complexities and behind-the-scenes efforts involved in helping women, known as agunot, who are unable to obtain a religious divorce (get) from their husbands. The episode features interviews with Jennifer Lankin, Interim CEO at ORA (Organization for the Resolution of Agunot), and Ezra Stone, a private investigator who specializes in tracking down recalcitrant husbands who refuse to grant their wives a get. Jennifer shares her journey into this work and explains ORA's community-focused approach to addressing get refusal. Ezra offers insights from his fieldwork, describing some of the challenges and strategies involved in locating and pressuring these husbands to comply with religious and legal obligations. The episode encapsulates the importance of community response, the use of private investigators in protracted cases, and the critical role that social culture and public pressure play in resolving these deeply rooted issues.   00:00 Introduction and Announcements 01:50 Special Guests: Ezra Stone and Jennifer Lankin 02:12 Jennifer Lincoln's Journey and Insights 03:54 Ezra Stone: The Private Investigator 05:57 The Role of Private Investigators in Get Refusal Cases 10:19 Challenges in Tracking Down Recalcitrant Spouses 11:36 Case Study: The Search for Naftali Shabani 22:24 Unexpected Encounters and Travel Stories 22:56 Investigative Techniques and Challenges 23:08 The Case of the Recalcitrant Brother 26:59 Legal and Ethical Considerations 27:56 Creative PI Strategies 29:02 The Big Daddy of Get Refusers 36:56 Social Media and Influencers 39:38 Security Issues in the Jewish Community 44:16 Closing Remarks and Reflections   www.instagram.com/oraagunot   About our Guests: Ezra Stone is a licensed private investigator in both the USA and Israel, who specializes in sensitive cases within the Orthodox Jewish community.

Unlock the mysteries of ancient faith and discover profound lessons that resonate in today's world. This episode delves into the powerful narrative of the Akedah, the binding of Isaac, exploring its timeless significance for spiritual growth and resilience. Through Abraham's extraordinary test of faith, we examine important parallels to modern-day challenges, such as those encountered in professional and personal realms, and find inspiration in his unwavering commitment to divine will.Join us as we explore how the Akedah serves as a metaphor for transforming our daily lives. By examining the contrasts in attitudes between children and teenagers, we highlight the importance of approaching life's trials with enthusiasm and a deep sense of purpose. This episode also considers the complex interplay between truth, peace, and compromise, offering insights into the ongoing disputes over the land of Israel and the broader implications for spiritual consciousness and readiness.Reflect on the enduring legacy of these biblical events and their spiritual significance for the Jewish people. The symbolism of the ram and its horn, tied to the shofar and the anticipation of the Messiah, invites us to ponder the profound connections between past and future.

How do morning rituals shape your day and spirit? Discover the profound significance behind Jewish morning blessings and rituals as we explore the pivotal blessing of "Ozer Yisrael B'Gevura," symbolizing the delicate balance between heart and desire, and embodying both physical and spiritual discipline. Step back in time to the formation of Daf Yomi, a revolutionary concept by Rabbi Meir Shapiro that has unified Jewish communities worldwide through daily Talmud study, championing modesty and strength.Join us as we uncover the symbolic roles of the belt and head covering in Jewish tradition, representing self-control and fear of heaven. We'll discuss the spiritual magnificence of tefillin, likened to a crown, and how these practices guide our moral compass. Drawing wisdom from Rabbi Nachman of Breslov and other revered figures, we reflect on spiritual growth, resilience, and the rhythm of life, illustrating how each new morning provides a fresh beginning.In our community-focused discussion, learn about the importance of active participation in synagogue and the role of charity as a divine test. Embrace the concept of seeking divine guidance for a blessed day, starting with a heartfelt prayer to navigate life with positivity and purpose.

The majestic and beautiful edifice of the Tiferes Yisrael Shul, also known as the Nisan Bak shul after its founder and leader, stood as the central shul of the Chassidic Old Yishuv of Yerushalayim, from its establishment in 1872, until its ultimate destruction by the Jordanians in 1948. The project was initially spearheaded by Rav Yisrael Friedman of Ruzhin, known as the Holy Ruzhiner, who headed the Chassidic Kollel Vohlyn, with the members of the Bak family at its head. Upon completion the shul was named for the Ruzhiner, and it served the needs of the Yerushalayim Chassidic community in the ensuing decades.   Cross River, a leading financial institution committed to supporting its communities, is proud to sponsor Jewish History Soundbites.
