Shavu’os and Bar Mitzvah: Causes For Celebration By Rabbi Yehudah Prero

It is well known that when a boy celebrates his thirteenth birthday and when a girl celebrates her twelfth birthday, the birthday celebration is not standard. At these ages, the boy and girl become a Bar and Bas Mitzvah, respectively. They are now obligated to keep all of the Mitzvos of the Torah. The entrance into this new stage in a boy’s and girl’s life is celebrated. The interesting thing about a Bar and Bas Mitzvah is that we don’t find any explicit commandment in the Torah to celebrate this occasion. The Chasam Sofer poses this question in his commentary in Parshas Vayechi. He compares this glaring omission to another omission that we find in the Torah. When one would look in the Torah to see why we celebrate the holiday of Shavu’os, one would find that no association is made between Shavu’os and the giving of the Torah. (See vol. I # 24.) We all know that Shavu’os is the anniversary of the giving of the Torah, and it would seem fitting that we celebrate this anniversary on Shavu’os. Yet, the Torah only mentions the bringing of the Omer and the bringing of Bikkurim (first fruits) as reasons for celebration. Why does the Torah not mention any celebration of the anniversary of Matan Torah, the giving of the Torah to the nation of Israel? The Chasam Sofer, when answering his question, sets out some elementary facts. The Bikkurim, first fruits, were brought to Jerusalem at the time of Shavu’os with great fanfare. The Sefer HaChinuch tells us why we have the commandment to set aside the first fruit. Until the time that the crops begin to grow, a farmer may be very worried about the success of his crops. His livelihood depends on these fruits, and waiting to see if they will grow and produce can be nerve-wracking. However, once the fruits have started to grow, and the farmer sees that his work is literally bearing fruits, the farmer is overjoyed. He now knows that his work was not for naught and that he will have an income this year. It is precisely at a time like this that a farmer needs to remember who made his crops successful – Hashem. At the height of his joy, the farmer sets aside the first fruits of his labor upon the command of Hashem. This way, the farmer demonstrates that he is thankful for all the help and the blessings Hashem has bestowed upon him. In this instance, the farmer needs a reminder of how and why he was blessed. When it comes to the giving of the Torah, we should not need any commandment or any set celebration to remind us of how lucky we are to have the Torah. We should be inspired on our own to be thankful to Hashem for giving us this present, every day. If Hashem had given us a directive to celebrate the anniversary of our receiving the Torah, it would make the celebration obligatory, as is everything else in the Torah. We would be celebrating not necessarily because we truly feel happiness and appreciation for the Torah, but because Hashem told us that we should celebrate. This is not how Hashem wants us to celebrate our receiving of the Torah. Therefore, the Chasam Sofer says, the bringing of the Bikkurim is connected with the bringing of the Torah. Hashem made the time of bringing the Bikkurim, a time of natural joy for the farmer, and a time in which the farmer remembers Hashem, at the same time as the anniversary of receiving the Torah. The joy and thanks that comes naturally from bringing Bikkurim should cause a spark to be ignited within us, so that we, on our own, express the same joy and thanks for receiving the Torah. It is, perhaps, for this reason, that no commandments to celebrate a Bar Mitzvah appears in the Torah. A Bar Mitzvah is a time when a young man has the yoke of Torah placed upon his shoulders. While it is indeed a time when a young man might be a bit frightened by the burden he is starting to bear, he should nevertheless be overjoyed by the fact that now he has the opportunity to do Mitzvos and fulfill the command of Hashem. This happiness has to be natural: the young man has to feel it on his own. An artificial happiness, brought on by an obligatory celebration of the fact, is not needed nor desired. The young man at the time of his Bar Mitzvah has to realize how lucky he is to now have received the Torah and to be thankful to Hashem for this gift. This realization has to arise without any stimuli. It has to be self motivated and sincere. It is for this reason that the Torah contains no commandments to celebrate a Bar Mitzvah. The Chiddushei HaRim notes that Shavu’os is referred to as Z’man Matan Torah – the Time When the Torah Was Given, and not Z’man Kabalas HaTorah – the Time When the Torah Was Accepted. The reason for this, he writes, is that the giving of the Torah occurred only once, and therefore we can celebrate an anniversary of this occasion. However, we are supposed to be accepting the Torah on a daily basis. We can not celebrate the anniversary of an event that is ongoing, and that occurs daily. As Shavu’os approaches, we should all feel natural feelings of joy that we had the Torah given to us. We should celebrate the fact that we have the opportunity to accept the Torah, just as our forefathers at Sinai, on a daily basis, so that we can strengthen our bond to the Torah and to G-d.

Holier Than Thou By Rabbi Mordechai Kamenetzky

One of the most disheartening episodes that occurred during the 40-year desert sojourn is recorded in the parsha or Emor. A man quarreled with a fellow Jew and left the dispute in a rage. He reacted by blaspheming Hashem. This abhorrent behavior was so aberrant that no one even knew what the punishment was! So Hashem reviewed the grievous penalty for the deplorable act. As in any society, the ultimate act of treason was met with a capitol sentence. The Torah declared a death penalty. But curiously enough, Hashem does not leave it at that. When the Torah reveals the penalty for the heinous act of blasphemy, it continues: “And one who blasphemes the name of Hashem shall be put to death…And if a man inflicts a mortal wound in his fellow man, he shall be put to death. If he inflicts damage then restitution shall be paid. The value of an eye for the loss of an eye, the value of a break for a break the value of a tooth for the loss of a tooth. And one who wounds an animal must be made to pay. (Leviticus 24:15-21) Shouldn’t blasphemy be in a league of it own? Surely the act of affronting G-d Almighty can not be equated with attacking human beings. And surely it has no place next to the laws of injurious action towards animals! Why, then is it? Rabbi Y’honasan Eibeschutz one of Jewry’s most influential leaders during the early 1700s, was away from his home for one Yom Kippur and was forced to spend that holy day in a small town. Without revealing his identity as Chief Rabbi of Prague, Hamburg, and Altoona, he entered a synagogue that evening and surveyed the room, looking for a suitable place to sit and pray. Toward the center of the synagogue, his eyes fell upon a man who was swaying fervently, tears swelling in his eyes. “How encouraging,” thought the Rabbi, “I will sit next to him. His prayers will surely inspire me.” It was to be. The man cried softly as he prayed, tears flowed down his face. “I am but dust in my life, Oh Lord,” wept the man. “Surely in death!” The sincerity was indisputable. Reb Y’honasan finished the prayers that evening, inspired. The next morning he took his seat next to the man, who, once again, poured out his heart to G-d, declaring his insignificance and vacuity of merit. During the congregation’s reading of the Torah, something amazing happened. A man from the front of the synagogue was called for the third aliyah, one of the most honorable aliyos for an Israelite, and suddenly Rabbi Eibeschutz’s neighbor charged the podium! “Him!” shouted the man. “You give him shlishi?!” The shul went silent. Reb Y’honasan stared in disbelief. “Why I know how to learn three times as much as he! I give more charity than he and I have a more illustrious family! Why on earth would you give him an aliyah over me?” With that the man stormed back from the bimah toward his seat. Rabbi Eibeschutz could not believe what he saw and was forced to approach the man. “I don’t understand,” he began. “Minutes ago you were crying about how insignificant and unworthy you are and now you are clamoring to get the honor of that man’s aliyah?” Disgusted the man snapped back. “What are you talking about? Compared to Hashem I am truly a nothing.” Then he pointed to the bimah and sneered, “But not compared to him!” Perhaps the Torah reiterates the laws of damaging mortal and animals in direct conjunction with His directives toward blasphemy. Often people are very wary of the honor they afford their spiritual guides, mentors and institutions. More so are they indignant about the reverence and esteem afforded their Creator. Mortal feelings, property and posessions are often trampled upon even harmed even by those who seem to have utmost respect for the immortal. In the Torah portion of Emor that declares the enormity of blasphemy, does not forget to mention the iniquity of striking someone less than Omnipotent. It links the anthropomorphic blaspheming of G-d to the crime of physical damage toward those created in His image. It puts them one next to each other. Because all of Hashem’s creations deserve respect. Even the cows. Reprinted with permission from www.torah.org
