Rabbi’s Corner It is rare that you could get a bunch of rabbis to agree on anything…! Yet, when it came to dedicating a Shabbat to speak about Jewish Education in West Hartford the rabbis were unanimous. All the Orthodox rabbis in town will be speaking this Shabbat about the importance to Jewish Education for our children and for our community. We can be incredibly proud as a community to have a strong elementary and high school which are devoted to teaching the next generation of Jewish leaders the texts our tradition and the values that pervade them. The task of teaching is becoming more and more difficult in these changing times and I applaud those who devote their lives to Jewish Education. The task of sending children to Jewish schools is becoming more and more difficult in these changing times as well and I applaud those who have made the sacrifice to do so. May our schools continue to grow and to thrive and to inspire generations of Jews to be proud of their heritage and committed to their traditions. As a way of introducing this whole theme of Shabbat I have attached a brief column that appeared in Jewish Action Magazine in 2010 that I think captures the challenges and goals of Jewish Education in our times. Enjoy! This Wednesday, as you all know, is Yom Yerushalayim! We will have the privilege of, iy”h, celebrating 46 years since the reunification of Yerushalayim. I invite you all to join us for a special festive davening Wednesday morning at 6:30am. We will be davening upstairs in the main sanctuary and all men and women are invited to come, to sing, and to celebrate. Shabbat Shalom Rabbi Weinberg

CONGRATULATIONS Avigayil Halpern, a junior at HHNE has been awarded the distinguished Bronfman Fellowship. As described on their website, "the Bronfman Fellowship begins with a 5-week, all-expensespaid summer program in Israel where Jewish Action Magazine Spring 2010 Fellows travel through Israel, explore their Jewish Gerald M. Schreck identity, and engage with thinkers, authors, artBack in the 60s when I attended yeshivah, the chal- ists, and educators in a transformative experience, lenges facing Jewish education were formidable. The stuwhile learning about themselves and each other." dents tended to be first generation Americans; the rebbeim were Yiddish-speaking survivors. Understandably, there was a significant cultural gap between the European rebbes and their baseball-obsessed, American-as-apple-pie talmidim. While the rebbeim tried valiantly to forge a connection with their talmidim, they seem to have come from a different world. To make matters more challenging, we had to translate Chumash and even Gemara into Yiddish, a language we heard at home but did not really speak. I recall spending many hours with my father, a”h, on long winter Friday nights reviewing Gemara, struggling to commit the more difficult Yiddish words to memory. The challenges facing Jewish education today are, of course, radically different. Rebbeim and talmidim often

RABBI WEINBERG’S SHABBAT AFTERNOON CLASS
COMMEMORATING THE 20TH YAHRZEIT OF RABBI JOSEPH B. SOLOVEITCHIK zt”l

share the same cultural background (and even play baseball together!). In most yeshivas, students are expected to translate Chumash, and certainly Gemara, into English. Moreover, the plethora of educational aids, including many classical sources (and even Talmud Bavli!) available in English, makes the learning experience more pleasant and enjoyable. Nevertheless, reaching the twenty first- century talmid is no simple feat. How does an iPod-and-iPhoneaddicted teenager get turned on to Rashi and Rambam? How does a member of the IM (instant messaging) generation cultivate the necessary patience and diligence to master Tosafot? And yet, some of the fundamental issues facing Jewish educators today are, in fact, issues that have faced Jewish educators since time immemorial. Indeed, while educational methodologies change from time to time, the goals of Jewish education have always remained the same: to make Torah alive and relevant, to instill in students a deep and lifelong love of learning, to provide students with a strong spiritual foundation that will enable them to cope with life’s vicissitudes. What is the best way to achieve these goals? This remains the perennial challenge of Jewish education… I doubt my father realized it at the time, but those Friday nights I spent learning with him, struggling to decipher the dense Talmudic discussions, gave me precious memories and helped nurture my love of learning Torah. For my solid Jewish education, I owe an extraordinary debt to my dear father, whose yahrtzeit is on 5 Nisan…

The Western Wall and "Western" Civilization Based on a sicha by Harav Yehuda Amital ~ Adapted by Dov Karoll (www.vbm-torah.org) Those of us who experienced the reunification of Yerushalayim on 28 Iyyar, 5727 (7 June, 1967) find it difficult to describe. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life. I was at home; I had been exempted from fighting because I was above forty. I tried to help the elderly, to make myself useful during those difficult days, days of trembling and fear. Suddenly, on 28 Iyyar, we heard the Kol Yisrael radio station: they were playing "Yerushalayim shel Zahav," "Jerusalem of Gold," in the middle of the war. A little while later, not at the regular time, there was a newsflash: "Jerusalem has been liberated!" The announcer, Moshe Choval, who was not religious, began to read Tehillim 122, "I rejoiced when they said to me: 'Let us go to God’s house.'" It stunned me that they were reading this psalm on the radio! I do not have the words to describe that experience. I do remember that Mincha that day was one of my greatest prayers ever. A neighbor of mine, a Torah scholar, told me: "This is a revealed miracle!" I do not know if it was a revealed miracle or a hidden miracle, but I know how strongly I felt it. The ideas and emotions of that day must inform my thoughts about the Israeli government's economic plan. This plan, espousing austerity for the sake of economic growth, stems from an ideology of globalization. Market forces, privatization, individualism — these are its buzzwords. What lies at the foundation of this ideology? I am sure you have seen at recent weddings that there are some people who do not dance in the circle, but dance on their own. I saw a wedding where there were 100 boys, each one dancing on his own. It is aesthetically pleasing, but what is going on here? How can a celebration such as this devolve into individuals executing fancy dance steps? The catchphrase is "Al titarev," "Don't get involved." Why dance in an unnatural circle, hands clasped, arms linked? Let nature run its course, let each individual express himself, and you will see how well it comes out. This is the ideology of globalization: "Al titarev, let market forces run their course, don't talk about social justice. The rich will get richer and the poor will disappear; let them die of starvation, and whoever is left will be wealthy." This is the philosophy of privatization: why should the state get involved in the personal lives of its citizens? In the Knesset, we have 120 of the creme de la creme, the best of our nation, and what they say is the law! Why should the Supreme Court get involved when we have these elected sages who make decisions? Why would you interfere? We need economic growth. Even the "spirituality" of our time gives its imprimatur to this attitude. These are the philosophies that backpackers bring back from India: they do not speak of tzedek (justice) at all! "People should die quietly and not make noise." They do not speak about tzedek and uprightness, because everything is about finding yourself, individualism. This is enlightenment? This lies behind the idolatry that goes around today: "Go with nature; don't get involved." How nice is it for everyone to do whatever he wants! On the Internet and cable television, everyone watches whatever he wants, whenever he wants. Freedom, privatization — behind all this is the notion: "Let nature run its course - it's so beautiful! Why would you interfere?" Perhaps it is natural, but all idolatry comes from nature. This is New Age philosophy, dressed up in a suit as free -market capitalism. "If everyone has freedom, if everyone does what we wants, then you will see," says the finance minister, "there will be growth. Give the wealthy bank manager a little more, and he will work harder." What does that have to do with the Kotel ha-Ma'aravi (Western Wall), the ancient remnant of our Temple site, liberated on 28 Iyyar? Let us think back to Avraham Avinu, the first man to be commanded regarding circumcision, who almost sacrifices his son upon the Temple Mount, Mount Moriyya. Circumcision is a perfection of the natural; in the Midrash, Rabbi Akiva tells Turnus Rufus (Tanchuma Tazria 7) that nature has negative aspects, such as wild animals, poisonous fruits. Human beings must perfect nature, and this is not blasphemy, but the highest fulfillment of our God-given mission. I wish to develop this concept further. In Moreh Ha-Nevukhim (III:45), the Rambam cites a gemara from Tractate Yoma (which we do not have in our version), wherein Avraham Avinu picks the ma'arav (west) of Mount Moriyya for the future site of the Holy of Holies, because "the Divine Presence is in the ma'arav" (Bava Batra 25a-b). This is because the Sun, the ultimate symbol of nature, rises in the east, and its worship was then popular. Avraham Avinu chooses to turn to the west, turning his back on the sun, which is antithetical to nature. Yechezkel (8:16) decries the Jews who turn their backs to the Temple, turning to the east, bowing down to the Sun. They defy the memory of their ancestor Avraham, the innovator of a new approach to the world. We see that letting nature follow its course is not a new idea; it is the oldest form of turning away from God. The refrain is: "Return to nature; let people do what they want." Now, psychology speaks this way, arguing that shame is bad, an invention of religion; instead, we should stick with nature. This is the ideology of the new economic plan; remove regulations and benefits, and the economy will naturally grow. If the poor complain, the cognoscenti murmur, "They don't know that there will be growth; they will benefit eventually…" As we stand here, almost 4,000 years after Avraham Avinu, the urgency of his message has not dimmed. We must take our cue from him, and look to the ma'arav, turning our backs on the cruelty and indifference of the natural world, embracing the obligation and involvement of the world of faith. That is the universal message we still get from the Kotel ha-Ma'aravi. May God grant us the merit to rebuild the Temple, so His Presence may once again rest in the Holy of Holies — in the ma'arav.
