It’s 5:18pm on a glorious Shabbos Nachamu afternoon in the Catskills. The joyous songs of “Nachamu Ami” have just concluded at the grand kiddush at the shul in your bungalow colony. You're walking home from shul in the beaming sunshine, surrounded by laughter from friends and family. The grounds are filled with happy families greeting each other and sharing divrei torah of this week’s parsha.
The light summer Keter tzitzis flickers comfortably across your shoulders. As a father, you feel inner happiness. All week long you have waited for the opportunity to reconnect with your family, and even your bochurim are home from camp this week. It’s shabbos Nachamu, you can feel it in the warm summer air. The warm breeze harmonizes your voices in unison, reminding you of גמרא גמור זמורתא תהא. There is no place in the world you would rather be.

THE NESHER AND THE EAGLE
(Re: FYI: Eagles, Issue 145) I really appreciate your magazine with its high-quality and informative Torah’dige articles. I would like to comment on the FYI article in which was written that “interestingly, the Hebrew term we associate with the eagle — nesher — is currently used to refer to vultures. The question is what the word “nesher” refers to in Tanach.” The answer to this question is that according to Tosfos Chulin 63a [d”h netz] the nesher is not the eagle. Also, Rav Saadiah Gaon translates nesher with the Arabic term nesr, which refers to the griffon vulture. Ibn Ezra does the same, noting that the Arabic language provides good evidence for the identity of the bird. Contemporary scholars in the field of Biblical zoology have likewise concluded that the griffon vulture is the nesher and the eagle is the netz that is mentioned in the torah in Parshas Shemini. However, Sefer HaItur, Chizkuni and Yalkut Me’am Loez state that the nesher is the eagle. Thanks, R.M.

BEAT YOUR CRAVINGS
TIED TO THE CHURBAN
(Re: Lest We Forget, Issue 145) It was really interesting to read about families who do not eat meat on Wednesdays as a zecher l’Churban. I never realized there was a reason behind it, although as far back as I can remember, our family would eat only dairy or pareve on Wednesdays. I always thought it was a convenience thing menu-wise, and only now learned that the tradition has its roots in the Churban. Thank you for this information. I wonder how many, like us, have kept this minhag without knowing its reason. Additionally, I’ve heard that there are people who do not purchase any homes, but will only rent their residences, which I assume is also related to the Churban. Is anyone familiar with this minhag? Perry K. Compiled by:
SHEVY HOLLANDER
Concrete remembrances of the Home we lost
As Yidden in galus, the Churban is something we live with every day.
We feel the pain of the galus so intimately. We daven for Moshiach constantly, recall the glory of the Beis Hamikdash in our tefillos, and each day brings such aching reminders that we are a nation in exile. And yet, we also take remembering to the next level. Our chachamim have instituted many minhagim and practices that Yidden from all walks of life incorporate as a zecher l’Churban, a concrete reminder that we are in foreign lands and under hostile leaderships, and that our hearts yearn for home.

In Maseches Bava Kama (daf 54b) it says that if someone locks up his animals properly and an animal escapes and causes damage, then the owner is patur. However, if he doesn’t lock them up properly and they escape and cause damage, then the owner is chayiv. The mishnah tells us that having an improper fence is tantamount to not having one.

Reading the Gemara we may think, “What kind of person would install an improper fence? The animals could escape and cause so much damage! Lives could be put at stake!” Let’s try and apply this to ourselves in ways we can understand and that are relevant. Many of us and our children have “kosher phones,” or so we think. The truth is that no flip phone is kosher unless explicitly mentioned in product specifications or visibly certified by a reliable/known hechsher; otherwise, it is in the category of a regular smartphone with a keypad. A reliable filter will go into the innards of the phone and into the SD card and make sure the internet cannot be accessed, and that no matter what is done to the phone, one won’t succeed in getting the internet capabilities back. On the flip side, hundreds, if not thousands, of people have “non-filters” on their phones that did not go through the rigorous filtering proper kosher phones have. I once walked into a yeshivah where many, if not most, of the bachurim had such a “filter.” Here’s how to tell if the flip phone is improperly filtered: 1. If there are apps like Waze or Spotify. 2. If in settings there is an option in the main menu called “developers options” that can be accessed when pressed on. Here’s how you can tell if the phone is properly filtered: 1. External labels of name brand filters are great indicators. 2. When the phone is turned off and on, the logo of the filtering organization is displayed. 3. In settings, by “about phone, software information,” if you press “build number” five times, it should say, “You are a developer.” Upon returning to settings, click developer option, and you should not be able to access that option. If you can, it indicates that the filter is outdated, unreliable or simply not there. A primary goal should be to make rebbeim aware of the fallacies of false filters. My yeshivah requires a receipt from a reliable filtering organization that matches your phone. Every yeshivah should have a similar solution. Additionally, I happened to have heard from a very chashuv person that his “filter” for his kids’ phones means taking data off the phone plan. This pashut won’t work because every phone is also equipped with built-in Wi-Fi and Google, which means that it takes very little effort to land in the same hole you tried climbing out of. If someone has a garden of tomatoes, he’ll protect it with a small fence. This small fence wouldn’t cut it, however, if he’s trying to keep people out of a land mine. The greater the threat, the greater the fence needed. If this is true with minefields, how much more so about our ruchnius — and having a properly protected phone. After all, a fence with a hole is like no fence at all. Y.J. THE BORO PARK VIEW WELCOMES YOUR COMMENTS, FEEDBACK AND LETTERS.

PARSHAS VA’ESCHANAN A Cut Above
In this week’s parsha, Moshe Rabbeinu expresses the greatness of Klal Yisroel. He tells the Yidden that the nations of the world will praise them, saying, “Only this great nation is a wise and understanding people.” Moshe continues by saying, “Which great nation is so close to their G-d, that He is available whenever they call upon Him?” and, “Which great nation has such just statutes as the Torah…” (Devarim 4:6–8) Later, Moshe lauds Klal Yisroel again, stating, “For you are a holy people… Hashem has chosen you to be His treasured people… because of His love for you…” (ibid. 7:6–8). Why did Moshe Rabbeinu express this praise so many times, and in so many ways? ONE MORNING, Reb Baruch Ber Liebowitz of Kaminetz, zt”l, was walking on the street when he noticed the chimney cleaner. Thinking the man was a gentile, he wished him good morning in Polish. The cleaner replied in Yiddish, “Rabbiner! I am a Yid! Why not greet me in Yiddish?” When Reb Baruch Ber heard this response, he shuddered. “Reb Yid,” he said, “please forgive me! I made a mistake!” “It’s okay, Rabbiner,” answered the chimney cleaner with a smile. “It wasn’t such a bad mistake…” But Reb Baruch Ber was pained. This was not enough. He repeated his request for forgiveness: “I did you an injustice,” he said. Then he took a couple of moments to explain to the cleaner the chashivus of a Yid. “Do you know what a Yid is?” he asked. “A Yid is a different entity from a gentile. A Yid is kedusha, a Yid is taharah.” Reb Baruch Ber continued to point out the greatness of Klal Yisroel in a way that this man would understand. When he finished, he turned to the cleaner again and asked, “Reb Yid, are you sure you truly forgive me — with all your heart?!”

“Rabbiner!” came the quick reply. “I said it before that I am mochel, and I mean it!” Reb Baruch Ber smiled and shared the following story: There was once a girl who received a gift from her grandmother. It was a pearl necklace, and the girl cherished it dearly. One day, she wore it while playing outside with her friends. Her friend, seeing the precious piece of jewelry, fingered it curiously. Suddenly the string tore, and all the pearls went flying. The girl was upset, but in time she calmed down, and when her friend asked for forgiveness, she calmly forgave her. When she arrived home, the girl told her mother what had happened. Her mother was very upset. “Do you know that these pearls were real?! They weren’t fake. And even more than that; these pearls were an heirloom, passed down for generations in our family!” The girl felt terrible. She ran back to her friend’s house and said, “The mechilah I gave you before wasn’t real! I didn’t realize then that the pearls were so precious. If I would have known they were so valuable, I would never have been able to

“Rabbiner! I said it before that I am mochel, and I mean it!” forgive you for losing them!” Reb Baruch Ber told the Yid, “True — you told me right away that you forgave me, but that was before I explained to you what a Yid is. Now that you understand the true value of a Yid, you surely realize that hurting such a holy being is wrong! Now I must ask your mechilah again. Please forgive me with all of your heart!” * * * * * Before Moshe Rabbeinu was niftar, he felt compelled to prepare Klal Yisroel for the major milestone ahead of them. Klal Yisroel was just about to enter Eretz Yisroel. Coming after 40 years of life in the Midbar, where the Yidden were protected by the Ananei Hakavod, fed on holy mann and water from Above, and led by a leader who spoke directly to Hakadosh Baruch Hu, things were about to change. The Yidden would need to work hard to place bread on their table. They would need to toil in learning Torah. They would be following the natural ways of the world, just like all of the nations. Klal Yisroel would work just as the rest of the other nations do, eat just as they do, and sleep just as they do. Moshe Rabbeinu repeated himself numerous times for he wanted to prepare Klal Yisroel and make sure they recognize our deep value and greatness. We may be doing the same things as the nations of the world — but we are an entirely different entity. We were chosen from among all of the nations and elevated to a point of extra closeness and connection to the Creator of the world. The Kuzari famously points out the four levels of creation: domem, tzamei’ach, chai and medaber. Yet there is another, higher level: Yisroel. The Yid is above all ma’alos. The Kuzari explains that an animal is not a greater form of vegetation, and vegetation is not a greater form of inanimate nature. The proof is that when the animal dies, it does not become vegetation, and vegetation never becomes inanimate. Rather, each level is a creation for itself. The difference between Jew and non-Jew is the same. A Yid is not like any gentile, just more special; a Yid is entirely different. Klal Yisroel is the chosen one from among all creations. Even the simplest Yid is on a greater level than the wisest gentile in the world. A talmid chacham once came to the Chazon Ish and complained that he was feeling down. “I don’t feel like I can make myself happy,” he said. The Chazon Ish replied, “Did you say the Birchos HaTorah today? When you said ‘Asher bachar banu mikol ha’amim,’ did you think into what you were saying, or did you merely mouth the words? If you think into it, you will have no choice but to be full of satisfaction and happiness all day!” Let’s recognize our special, inherent value. We aren’t “just people”; we are Yidden! 58

Riding the Waves Streamlining the Shidduch Process
ClickShadchan — a concept whose time has come
Gitty’s eyes darted around the hall, In the center, the energetic nineteen-year-olds danced with gusto around the kallah. Further out, there were the subdued mechuteneste circles. Sprinkled in between sat the elter-bubbas drinking in the nachas on their chairs of honor. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed her mother approaching Mrs. Dreiman. Quickly, she turned back to face Miriam.

“Yeah. After two years, you’re more than ready for something bigger and better…” “Jobwise? Totally not.” “C’mon, you know I wasn’t talking about that. I meant
shidduchim.” “Exactly. C’mon, I’m only 20! Don’t know about you, but the phone hardly rings with suggestions.” “Actually, I get plenty of calls, thanks to my last name. But many of the shidduchim that are mentioned are so —” “Off the mark?” “Yeah. And often they’re supposedly so on the mark that people keep mentioning the same name over and over again —” “And each time, the shadchan thinks he struck gold. You hold your breath until he says the name and then you’re like, ‘Oh no, not again!’” A waitress passed by and took their empty plates. “Psst…Miriam, see Mrs. Dreiman there?” Gitty whispered, gesturing toward a petite middle-aged woman who was surrounded by several other women, engaged in a rousing conversation. “You mean the famous shadchante?” “Right. Did she ever call you?” “Ummm, actually she did — only once. Her suggestion was quite on target but we could not get through to her after doing our research. It was a boy from a different neighborhood and it was really hard to find out about him and the family. When we finally figured out that it had potential, we called her back and she never responded.” “I hear she needs at least another two phone lines. Her sister-in-law teaches with me, and even she can hardly reach her!” “They say Mrs. Dreiman really knows her stuff. I’m going to ask my mother to — hey, there she is coming right over to me.” “Miriam, come and meet Mrs. Dreiman, a famous shadchante. She wants to have a few words with you.” Miriam winked at Gitty as she approached the potential shaliach for her yeshuah. Meeting a shadchan once in six months was something, but couldn’t more be done? I wish there was another way to get my name out there. More shadchanim should get involved. The music stopped as a minyan Maariv was announced. Gitty stretched her tired legs and went over to the glowing kallah to wish her a happy life. Her mother joined her, stopping on the way to tell Mrs. Dreiman good night.

Should I get a coffee now? Dina wondered. I must remember all the information. And maybe I can even call Eretz Yisroel to find out about Jacobs, the five-star bachur. Is he really the masmid they make him to be? I saw him recently during bein hazmanim and he didn’t give that impression. If coffee would do the trick, then coffee it would be. And there she sat, until the wee hours of the morning, scribbling, ruminating, and scribbling some more. At 4 a.m., Dina snuck into bed, hoping her husband would make sure she got up on time for work. * * * * *
“Quick communication? Automatic reminders? Detailed resumes? Organized files?” Dina savored the thought, as she heard the details from her co-shadchan, Malka. “Yes, ClickShadchan is a custom-made tool to make life easier for shadchanim and those looking for shidduchim. First of all, there’s a large database with names of hundreds of eligible boys and girls.” “Ach, you mean a dating site? Where each single is laid out for public display?” “No! This for our heimish crowd. Only approved shadchanim can sign up to view the listings and try to make matches based on the information written on the resumes” “How much detail do these resumes have?” “Obviously the name and age, education, whether the boy is working or learning, a general personality description, kehillah and also details about their physical appearance and family. Could be more — I don’t remember everything off the top of my head.” “You mean every shadchan can see a picture? And all the

The stillness of the night was shattered by the sound of the door swinging on its hinges. Dina Dreiman loved attending simchas, especially when it was a close friend marrying off her child. But ever since immersing herself in the world of shidduchim, she could no longer indulge in a calm night out. And now, it was time for a brain August 10, 2022

information?” “As much as the seeker allows. And the single can even choose to whitelist shadchanim — and only allow shadchanim they are comfortable with to see their info.” “What if a shadchan doesn’t want to see pictures?” “That’s also blockable.” “This sounds like a groundbreaking idea. But there are so many shadchanim out there who don’t have computers or devices at home.” “Like me! I called the office after hearing about this software from my friend and the manager said he’ll pay for a monthly kiosk membership as long as I use the system often enough. I also have the option of borrowing a tablet from the office.” “I have to check this out. What’s the web address again?” * * * * *
“So I put my daughter’s resume on file. It’s really not a big deal. Why not save my shadchan — and myself — so many phone calls? Believe it or not, one shadchan called me up already to get a better idea of who my daughter really is. And wait — here’s an email that just came in,” Mrs. Rosen shared with her sister. A suggestion has just been made for you. Please click on this link to access your portal.
“Does it seem like it’s the right type of boy for Miriam?” “I know this boy. He’s a great boy but it’s not for her. He’s too leibedig. Let me press reject. Hey — there’s an option for notes. I’ll explain why it’s not for her. A mechaya! The next shadchan who looks at her file will get what type of boy not to even try redting..” “This sounds like a platform whose time has come. But is it really okay to use — I mean, according to daas Torah?” “There’s a haskama on the website from a big dayan in Williamsburg, HaRav Mann, shlit”a. And Rav Avrum Hersh Wosner, shlit”a, of Monsey, my husband told me, calls this website “his website.” I wouldn’t hesitate to make use of it!” * * * * *
The nagging thought that kept repeating itself over and
The Gold boy wants a girl with a covered sheitel. Let me put that into the search. Wow. There are 219 names that fit this description. Let me narrow it down by age. 132 names left. No smartphone. 79 names. So, the first one looks interesting. She’s 20, works as a secretary in an insurance office and is from his kehillah. Oh — I know her mother; she’s a Greenwald! Let me check the shadchan’s notes. “Girl is very idealistic. She wants a boy who learns part time and only went out to work once he got older. Must be careful with technology.” What shidduchim were already mentioned? I see… They seem pretty similar to the Gold boy but didn’t get too far. One was because he said no, another because of Dor Yeshorim, and a third because of an issue with names. Let me give this a try. Wait a minute - I think the Golds are out of town now for a wedding. I’ll put this in the “shortlist” file. What’s that? A new signup on the system! It’s Gitty Klein — that must be the girl I noticed at that chasunah a few days ago. I don’t get what she’s looking for but I hope I can help her. I’m gonna post a question on the shadchan’s group — maybe someone can clue me in. * * * * *
What are the other shadchanim saying? “I was about to take a break from shadchanus. It’s in your zechus that I’m going into it even more now.” “Well, what can I tell you? After I heard about it, I checked out ClickShadchan and it all clicked.” “I’m going to tell all my friends to get their children to sign up. And I won’t be surprised if the parents will decide to become shadchanim too…”

Concerns Mount as Polio Detected in Orange and Rockland Wastewater Samples Health officials are raising an alert after traces of polio were discovered in seven Hudson Valley wastewater samples, all of which were genetically linked to a previously reported case of paralytic polio in a Rockland County resident. Three positive samples were found in Rockland County wastewater in July, with four more detected in Harriman and Middletown in Orange County in June and July testing. The New York State Department of Health has said that the discovery underscores the importance of getting every adult and child statewide vaccinated against polio, which can be prevented, but not cured, and can lead to paralysis and even death. Health Department Commissioner Dr. Mary Bassett warned that every case of paralytic polio that surfaces may represent hundreds of others who have been infected with the virus. “Coupled with the latest wastewater findings, the department is treating the single case of polio as just the tip of the iceberg of much greater potential spread,” said Bassett. “As we learn more, what we do know is clear — the danger of polio is present in New York today.” Health department officials have said that the original Rockland County case was linked to polio that was discovered in both London and the greater Jerusalem area, reported CNBC. According to the Centers for Disease Control, all children should receive four doses of the polio vaccine between the ages of six weeks to four months. Unvaccinated adults or those who aren’t sure if they were ever immunized should receive three doses of the polio vaccine, while those who have had one or two doses should get their total number of inoculations against the virus up to four doses. Department of Health statistics measuring vaccination rates among two-year-olds outside of New York City placed Orange County dead last in the state, with a vaccination rate of 58.68%, followed closely by Rockland with a 60.35% vaccination rate. Both of those numbers fall well below the statewide
average vaccination rate of 78.96%. In New York City, where 86.2% of children ages six months to five years are fully vaccinated, Williamsburg holds the dubious honor of having the lowest numbers in the city at 56.3%, with Boro Park coming in in the 70% to 79% vaccination range.
Sanitation Supervisor Drives Away After Bumping Boro Park Woman in Crosswalk The city’s Department of Sanitation has launched an investigation into a report that a Boro Park woman was sideswiped by one of its supervisors as she crossed the street last Thursday morning. Boro Park 24 reported that the incident took place at approximately 9:30 a.m. at the corner of 15th Avenue and 58th Street. The woman was crossing 15th Avenue, and a dashcam video shows that she was bumped by the official DSNY vehicle in the crosswalk. The driver of the vehicle stopped momentarily before leaving the scene. “I saw him,” said the woman. “He saw me. We made eye contact … and he just kept on driving.” The incident was reported to DSNY, and spokesperson Vincent Gragani said that it was under investigation, with appropriate measures being taken. The unnamed woman, who had right of way in the crosswalk, is considering legal action in the wake of the incident.
Adams Angered as Judge Invalidates City’s Education Budget In a rare move, a state supreme court judge overturned the Department of Education’s $38 billion budget, saying that its passage violated state protocols, giving City Council members who once supported the budget and then reversed positions a potential chance to strike it down. Spectrum News reported that a group of parents and educators who were unhappy with the hundreds of millions of cuts in the budget sued to invalidate it, arguing that the City Coun-

cil’s educational policy panel had voted on the budget after it had been passed by the Council, instead of before the vote, as required by state law. An attempt by DOE Chancellor David Banks to sidestep the initial panel vote via an emergency declaration was deemed improper by Judge Lyle Frank. Frank’s decision gives the City Council another chance to revamp the budget, which contained $375 million in cuts to reflect lower enrollments, with $160 million in federal stimulus dollars softening the blow slightly. Some City Council members have said that they had regretted voting to support the budget and that with spending now reverting to the previous year’s fiscal budget, the mayor and the City Council could hold a new vote. Mayor Eric Adams slammed the City Council for what he called its “misleading and irresponsible statements.” Adams said that the budget included an unprecedented amount of city funding and that City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams had hailed it as a budget to “be so proud of” that “is good for every New Yorker.” “The funding in the budget has been clear for months and was negotiated, reviewed and voted on by the City Council with full transparency,” said Mayor Adams. “The Council knew what it was voting for and knew it was the right decision. And in the months since the vote, our administration has continued to provide them with detailed responses to its questions.”
Hoping To Head Off Future Issues, Lufthansa Creating Position To Prevent Anti-Semitism Two and a half months after refusing to allow more than 100 Kerestir-bound Jewish passengers to board their flight to Hungary, Lufthansa has announced the creation of a senior management position dedicated to preventing all types of discrimination and anti-Semitism. According to JTA, the airline said that an independent investigation it had commissioned found no evidence of “sentiments of anti-Semitism, prejudice or premeditated behavior by Lufthansa representatives.” It did acknowledge that some of its staff had handled the situation in a manner that was “insensitive and unprofessional,” but shifted at least some of the blame to several visibly Jewish passengers who it said were not complying with regulations, despite warnings from the captain on their original flight from New York to Frankfurt. Those actions, said Lufthansa, were the reason their staff barred over 100 passengers from boarding their connecting flight to Hungary, with one employee explaining that it was punishment for actions of a few. In addition to creating the new position, Lufthansa said that it would incorporate a focus on anti-Semitism into its staff training. The airline also said that it would adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of anti-Semitism, which describes eleven different scenarios that could be categorized as anti-Semitic. Lufthansa CEO Jens Ritter issued a formal apology, saying, “Lufthansa deeply regrets the denied boarding and the impact it had on our passengers.”

Beloved KRM Employee Gets Surprise Birthday Celebration from Felder and NYPD
Monsey Hat Box and Private Donors Step Up After Bunkhouse Burns to the Ground A pre-Tisha B’Av fire that left a group of Camp Aliya boys with nothing but the shirts on their backs prompted Klal Yisroel’s chesed machine to kick into action, with a well-known Monsey store opening its doors as part of the effort. An email sent to parents informed them that despite being closed for the Nine Days, the Monsey Hat Box would accommodate their sons and would be giving a 50% discount on all items last Thursday night. A group of generous parents volunteered to cover the cost of the remaining purchases for those in the affected bunk, located on the Parksville grounds of Camp Rayim Mesivta. Hat Box brought in salespeople and tailors to ensure that the campers have suits to wear for Shabbos, as well as hats and shoes. The boys were taken from Hat Box to Walmart to fill in whatever other items they needed, with a second trip made on Friday morning to Apple Tree Supermarket in Liberty where each one was given $30 in credit to replenish their personal junk food stashes. The Liberty Fire Department said that it received a 911 call about the fire at 11 a.m., with volunteer firefighters arriving on scene to find significant flames in one bunkhouse, with flames spreading to two others, all of which were empty at the time. Campers helped firefighters stretch out hose lines to the fire, enabling volunteers to start dousing the flames almost immediately. Mutual aid for additional firefighters and tankers was supplied by White Sulphur Springs, Livingston Manor, Loch Sheldrake, Swan Lake and Jeffersonville fire departments, with Camp Rayim’s nearby lake used to resupply tankers. The Liberty Fire Department posted information and pictures of the fire on social media, with one user commenting, “Thank you to the ever careing [sic] first responders. BUT A BIG THANK YOU TO THE CAMPERS THAT HELPED GET THE HOSES QUICKLY TO THE FIRE! That was a very scary situation for them and they were todays [sic] true assistant hero’s [sic].” One firefighter who sustained an ankle injury was transported by Catskills Hatzolah to Garnet Health Medical Center in Har-
Demonstrating that public service is all about serving the public, Senator Simcha Felder and representatives of the NYPD’s 66th Precinct paid a visit to KRM Supermarket last week to wish longtime KRM employee Avrumi Unger the happiest of birthdays. Unger, who is also known as Allan, is a well-known communal personality. He has had a difficult year, losing both his mother and a brother, prompting Senator Simcha Felder to arrange the visit. Joining Felder for the visit were the 66 Precinct’s Deputy Inspector Jason Hagestad and Officer James Jameson, as well as NYPD Inspector Richie Taylor of Community Affairs. The group arrived with a large bunch of balloons on Unger’s August 4th birthday and were greeted with hugs and smiles from the very delighted man of the hour, who received an honorary NYPD commander’s coin as a birthday gift. “It was an honor to take part in making this a great celebration for such an amazing guy,” said Hagestad. “Allan’s birthday brought us together with so many friends and supporters and gave us all a reason to smile.” Felder credited the NYPD for their willingness to jump on board a mission to bring joy to a local resident, who happens to be an avid fan of the department. “Their response really went beyond the call of duty,” said Felder. “Their warmth and sensitivity left an indelible impression on everyone, and Allan’s million-dollar smile lit up the room.” “With all the bad news, we all need more stories like this that just make you smile,” added Felder.

CHAPTER 22 RECAP: After Maariv, Izzy gets to talking with Velvel about Reb Menashe. Things are going great until, reliving some of his Holocaust experiences, Velvel becomes infuriated and tells Zach he’s a disgrace to the family. The next day, when Zach and Izzy arrive at city hall to claim the manuscript, the clerk tells them that someone else has already claimed it.
I
zzy stared at the woman in confusion. “Wait a minute. What? Are you saying another person was here to claim the manuscript?” The clerk nodded. “Yes, yes.” “Did you give it to them?” Zach demanded. She shook her head. “I say to you, it weel take few days.” “Great,” Izzy said. “We have time to work this out. Who was it?” At that, the woman held up her hands. “Sorry. I cannot to tell you.” “That’s ridiculous!” Zach exploded. “That manuscript belongs to me! Someone wants to steal my property, and you won’t tell me who it is?” “We not giving names to other peepel. I weel file your, eh, your —” She seemed to struggle for a word. “Your asking? Judge weel decide.” “But — but —” Izzy didn’t know what to say. “We traveled all the way from New York just for this manuscript! Your govern-
ment asked us to come!” The flustered clerk gestured to a line of people politely waiting their turns. “Sir, I give your papers in. Please next!” Zach raised both eyebrows. “Can I talk to your superior? Or anyone else who can help us figure this out? Please? That manuscript belonged to my great-grandfather, who was murdered in the Holocaust.” To Izzy’s surprise, it looked like Zach was about to cry. He locked eyes with the clerk and whispered. “It’s the last of his things we have,” he begged. “Please.” The woman looked even more agitated now. She made a swooping gesture, pointing them to the door, and loudly repeated, “Please next!” She turned away from them and gestured to someone in line. “Czy moge ci pomóc?” “I don’t believe this!” Zach growled as they left. “Who could have pulled something like this?” Izzy shrugged. “I have no idea. Maybe someone else thinks they’re the oldest rela-
tive?” Zach opened the door, and they braced against the cold. “Don’t kid yourself, pal,” he said with a snort. “This is theft. It’s a con job, plain and simple.” “You were pretty emotional in there,” Izzy noted. “I thought you didn’t care about the manuscript.” Zach stopped suddenly, looking defensive. “I care about it.” He pushed a button on his keys, and the car alarm beeped. “He’s my great-grandfather. This is my history, too.” Then he gave Izzy a wink. “But to be honest, a little emotion always helps in situations like this. Greases the wheels of government, if you know what I mean. Here, you drive,” he said, tossing Izzy the keys. “I need to think.” * * * * *
“Done thinking?” They were back at the hotel. Zach had kept silent during the drive, scanning his phone relentlessly. Now he looked up in confusion. “What? Oh, yeah, sorry. I was just figuring out what to do with the rest of my day. We’ve got to wait this manuscript thing out, so there’s time to kill.” Izzy sighed. “You want to go touring, huh? All right.” He stood up reluctantly. Zach shook his head. “Hold on there, cowboy. I want to go touring, yeah. But most of what I’m looking for isn’t going to interest you in the slightest. How about we split up for a few hours? We’ll meet for dinner this evening. Okay?” “You sure?” Izzy didn’t know exactly what Zach had in mind, but anything that “wouldn’t interest Izzy in the slightest” was probably something Zach shouldn’t be doing, either. Not that Izzy could do much about it. Zach laughed. “I’ll be home by bedtime, Mom, I promise! You want me to drop you off anywhere before I go?” “I dunno.” What did Izzy want to do? Learn, he supposed. Maybe Zach should take him to the Lodzer shul? No, the place was probably locked. Besides, Izzy had more seforim in his suitcase than there were in the shul. “I’ll be fine here, I guess.” “Suit yourself,” Zach said. “If you change your mind, gimme a call.” “Yeah. Hey, Chanukah’s tomorrow night.”
Zach looked at him in confusion. over slightly so he could read the words. “And…?” “Heh.

That sounded familiar. How had Izzy ended up in this mess? He was 4,000 miles from home, with no job when he returned. His shidduch prospects were practically nonexistent. The whole reason he’d come here was now in jeopardy. And to top it off, whatever slight kesher Zach had been developing to Yiddishkeit seemed to be fading fast. What was Izzy chasing?

Did they explain how they’ll choose who to give it to?” “No, just that ‘judge weel decide.’ She didn’t seem that interested in helping.” “Well, don’t give up,” Chaim Simcha said, more because his brother needed to hear it than anything else. “Hashem sent you there for a reason.” “I know, I know,” Izzy growled. “Are you okay?

“Nothing good,” Izzy told him darkly. “We went to the Lodzer shtiebel, but that was a disaster. And now this.” “You’re tired,” Chaim Simcha suggested. “Get some rest. It’ll look different in the morning.” “I got some rest,” Izzy said, sounding vaguely entertained. “A few hours ago, I fell asleep on the Rebbe’s sefer. You came to me in a dream, by the way.” “Really?” Chaim Simcha’s eyes flashed with amusement. “Doubtless I shared some brilliant insight into the human condition.” “You told me I was drooling on the pages,” Izzy replied. “So yeah.” Chaim Simcha chuckled. “You should record these pearls of wisdom for posterity.” “Why didn’t you tell me that while I was sleeping?” “I’ll do my best next time,” Chaim Simcha promised with a laugh. After wishing Izzy well, Chaim Simcha hung up and sighed. Someone was trying to snatch the manuscript. Well, there wasn’t much to do about it at the moment. He’d overnight a letter to Lodz tomorrow morning, describing what had happened. Maybe the letter would reach someone better placed than a front-desk clerk. If not, at least he’d have something documented. He’d learned long ago (from Izzy, of course) that creating a paper trail was important whenever there might be a legal tangle in the future. His eyes turned to the giant portrait of Reb Menashe. It was a curious likeness. The Rebbe’s expression seemed to change depending on how you looked at it. Sometimes he looked distraught, sometimes angry. At other times, a gleam of satisfaction or pride might peek from his eyes. It wasn’t magic, not nevuah or ruach hakodesh. Chaim Simcha figured the expression was simply ambiguous enough that it was open to interpretation. The way the Rebbe looked at you, therefore, was a reflection of how you saw yourself at that moment. Which made it a kind of ruach hakodesh after all… Right now, the Rebbe seemed to be imploring him, begging Chaim Simcha to do something, which meant Chaim Simcha himself felt that way. He wanted to act. But what could he do, from so far away? He was hardly an expert in the Polish legal system. They needed a local
guide, someone Izzy could hire to advise them. There had to be someone like that in Poland. With a start, Chaim Simcha realized they already knew someone like that right here in New York. He picked up the phone and called Lenny Bergman’s office. But the phone rang and rang until the machine picked up. Next he tried Lenny’s cell, but it went to voicemail. “Lenny, this is Chaim Simcha,” he said into his phone. “I have an issue I’d like to ask you about. Please give me a call as soon as you can; it’s a little bit urgent.” It was urgent, after all. The manuscript could disappear forever if they didn’t move quickly. Nothing more he could do on that front, was there? Lenny wasn’t likely to be home right now. Reb Menashe kept staring at him, looking worried. Email. Maybe he was one of those people who check their emails more often than their phone calls Chaim Sim-

To his surprise, he received a response almost immediately. With furrowed brows, Chaim Simcha opened the mail. AUTO-RESPONSE: Hi, this is Lenny. I’m currently on vacation in Eastern Europe. I’ll be back next Monday. For urgent enquiries, please contact Yosef Baumgarden at ybaumgarden@bergmanrealty.com.
Chaim Simcha frowned. Eastern Europe? Lenny hadn’t gone to Lodz, had he? TO BE CONTINUED...

CHAPTER
ELEVEN
Recap: Sebastian is finally reunited with his family, who, contrary to their opulent life in Spain, lives in poverty and is largely socially limited due to their conversos status. Rabbi Mendel Strasbourg offers to learn with Sebastian.
T
he door opened, and Carolina burst into the room. “Sebastian, Rabbi Strasbourg, dinner is ready. Oh, this is so thrilling. The whole family together — I mean, well, you know — and a guest at the table. It is almost like home.” Dona Angelica was waiting for them in the small dining room. She seated Sebastian at the head of the table with Reb Mendel to his right, and she herself took the seat at the opposite end with Carolina on her right and Felipe on her left. The table was set with fine china and cutlery. Two tapers in the center of the table provided candlelight, while oil lamps on the wall illuminated the room. A small vase of cut flowers stood near the tapers. The Norwegian housekeeper brought baskets of warm bread and platters of salads and laid them out on the table. “This is a really special occasion,” said Dona Angelica when everyone was seated. “Sebastian is here, and we are having a formal dinner, with everything prepared kosher exactly according to the rabbi’s instructions. Tonight I don’t feel quite like the widow that I am. Tonight I feel joyous and elated. So let’s have a wonderful evening. Let’s talk only about happy things and not about things that will make us sad.” “That, dear Mother,” said Felipe, “eliminates just about every topic of conversation we could have.” “Oh, shush, Felipe,” said Carolina. “Don’t be such a cynic. Let me tell you about the children I tutor. They are the most miserable group of troublemakers I have ever met, but I love them dearly.” The wine flowed freely as Carolina regaled everyone

with story after story about the difficulty her students were having with the Spanish language. Her imitations of their butchered Spanish sentences delivered with a heavy French accent were so perfect that the dinner table erupted in laughter. Even Reb Mendel, who spoke no Spanish, was amused and laughed politely. The mood of the evening was mellowed by the wine, the food and the conversation, and everyone around the table contributed reminiscences and stories that amused, touched and sometimes brought tears to the eyes of the listeners. The last to speak was Sebastian who chose to retell the story of his escape from prison with the assistance of the holy hermit who would be transformed by legend into a hunchback with magical powers. There were many amusing parts to the story, but the graphic depiction of the mortal dangers he had faced brought a shudder to Dona Angelica’s shoulders and a tremor to her lips. “I am so sorry, Mother,” he said quickly. “I should not have told this story.” “No, it’s all right, Sebastian,” she said, quickly composing herself. But the mood was broken. “Listen, I have some good news,” she said with forced brightness. “At least, I think it is good news. I have been petitioning the King to help me recover our estates and properties in Alsace, Luxembourg, and Burgundy. My cousin Giscard Duvalier, Comte de Bonvilliers, came by this afternoon and told me that the King has decided to grant us an audience and hear what we have to say. It may not happen right away, but at least it has been put on the
calendar.” “That is wonderful news, Mother,” said Sebastian. “We have hope at last.” Carolina leaped from her chair and embraced her mother. “Oh, I will miss those little troublemakers and their absurd Spanish,” she said, “but I will learn to live without them.” “Giscard also asked that you come around to his cottage, Sebastian,” said Dona Angelica. “Giscard enjoys calling it a cottage, but it is at least forty times as large as this house. He says he may have something for you to do while we wait for the King to give us a hearing.” “That is good news, too, Mother. I was wondering what I would do with myself here in Paris. Perhaps he can find something for Gonzalo as well, although I think that Gonzalo can take perfectly good care of himself.” “That he can, Sebastian. And thank Heaven for his resourcefulness and the protection of the A-mighty that brought you back to us alive and well. Oh, yes, and one more thing. Very, very important. What could it be?” She put her fingers to her forehead as if trying to recall some elusive piece of information. “Ah, yes. Now I remember. Giscard said that when we come to our audience, we should bring Rabbi Strasbourg along.” Reb Mendel recoiled in shock. “The King asked for me? How can that be? He doesn’t even know who I am.” “My dear Rabbi Strasbourg,” she said. “My family is a bone of contention between France and Spain. The King extends his protection to us, not out of chivalry to a widow in distress, but because it embarrasses the Spanish crown. The French government knows everything about us, everywhere we go, every sou we spend, everyone who comes to visit us. Believe me, Rabbi Strasbourg, they know everything about you.” “But what do I have to do with your petition? Why does he want to see me?” Dona Angelica shrugged. “Who knows? We will find out.” “But I live in Metz,” said Reb Mendel, his agitation unrelieved. “It takes me days to get to Paris. Will I have to remain here until the audience?” “Royal palaces move slowly, Rabbi. We will be given notice many weeks in advance of the date of our audience. And even then, we may have to wait in attendance for several days, if not more, until the King will finally see us. You will have plenty of time to get here, Rabbi.” * * * * *
The summer passed by without any word from the palace. Autumn came softly to Paris. Gentle rains fell almost daily from the middle of September into October. The traffic in the fashionable districts and in the government center grew heavier as the families of the aristocracy returned from their summer homes. The leafy planes turned russet and gold before they shed their foliage onto the boulevard to be turned to mulch under the wheels of the elegant carriages. October melted into November, and in the Rue Parmentier, the Dominguez family still waited for the call from the royal palace that failed to come. Life continued in its tense and desultory fashion. Dona Angelica puttered and “TONIGHT I worried and read the latest French and German literary works. Carolina tutored, DON’T FEEL read and dreamed. Felipe worked at the QUITE LIKE THE library and studied with Reb Mendel at every opportunity. Sebastian was occuWIDOW THAT I pied with his duties at the chateau of GisAM. TONIGHT I card Duvalier and sat in from time to time half-distractedly when Reb Mendel and FEEL JOYOUS Felipe studied together. And all of them AND ELATED.” lived on the edge of high anxiety.
Finally, when the icy winds toward the end of November heralded the approaching winter, Duvalier, a florid man in his late thirties, with fashionable long hair and a mustache, appeared on their doorstep with specific information about the audience. He informed the family that the audience would take place on the morning of 16 December. He also asked that the rabbi from Metz be available in Paris a few days beforehand and that they all meet in the Rue Parmentier when the time of the audience drew closer. * * * * *
Two nights before the appointed time, they gathered in the Dominguez home. They all had a glass of white wine. Then Giscard Duvalier addressed them. “With your permission, Madame Dominguez, my esteemed kinswoman, let me explain the political situation in Paris right now, and then we will see how we can take the best advantage of it. By the way, do we need to be concerned about your housekeeper who keeps puttering about?” “Helga?” said Dona Angelica. “She is harmless. And besides, she only speaks Norwegian and a tiny bit of French. If we want to be absolutely sure she doesn’t understand what we are saying, we can speak Spanish or German. She does not speak a word of either language. Oh, yes, Rabbi Strasbourg doesn’t speak Spanish, so I suggest we converse in German tonight.”
“That is perfectly fine,” said Duvalier. “Now, here is the situation. I do not need to describe to you the greatness of King Louis XIV. He has brought France to a level of power, prosperity and culture greater than perhaps at any time in our history. The whole world trembles before France. The whole world buys our products. The whole world reads the works of our writers. The whole world even imitates our fashions. The whole world fears and hates us but at the same time adores us. All this is to the credit of our King.” “Vive le Roi!” said Sebastian. “Long live the King!” The others quickly followed suit. “Yes, indeed,” said Duvalier. “Long live the King. He is in his prime now, at the height of his powers. Did you know that people have taken to calling him the Roi Soleil, the Sun King? Just as the planets revolve around the sun, so does the French court and all of France revolve around him, and increasingly, so does all of Europe. This is what our king is accomplishing. This will be his legacy. But there can only be one sun among the planets, and the King is competing with another sun. Do you know who it is?” There was a brief, somewhat uncomfortable silence. “No doubt you mean the Pope,” said Dona Angelica. “Yes and no,” said Duvalier. “It is not so much the Pope as a man, although Pope Innocent XI is certainly a formidable personality. It is even more so the ecclesiastical establishment of the Catholic Church in Rome. They project their power into France. They send in their Papal Legates at will,

“BUT THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE SUN AMONG THE PLANETS, AND THE KING IS COMPETING WITH ANOTHER SUN. DO YOU KNOW WHO IT IS?” and this greatly displeases the King. Did any of you hear about what has been going on at the palace this last month?” Dona Angelica shook her head. There was no other response. “A year ago,” continued Duvalier, “the King convened an Assemble de Clerge, a conference of the most important churchmen in France. Under the guidance of the King, this group is on the verge of issuing a declaration that will severely limit the power of the Roman churchmen in France. Among a long list of other enactments, no Papal Legate will be allowed into France without the express consent of the King, and the King will now have the right to issue laws on ecclesiastical matters. It is a revolution, my friends. A veritable revolution.” “It is not surprising, then,” said Sebastian, “that we have not heard from the palace in such a long time.” “Yes and no,” said Duvalier. “The King and his councilors have had many other things on their minds besides the Dominguez family, but the conference of churchmen has certainly been one of them. In any case, let me not mislead you. You should in no way underestimate the importance of your petition. The King will not want to give in to the demands of the Pope and the Catholic Church outside France at this time. On the contrary, I think he may be inclined to look with favor on your petition simply as another act of defiance to reinforce the independence of the French Church.” To be continued…

CHAPTER SEVENTY RECAP: Though
happy to be home, Rabbi Reiness feels deep anger toward Osher, since Shikovitzer’s lot seems to be lost forever. To combat this anger, Rabbi Reiness decides to do even more for Osher: sponsor additional safrus lessons for him. He also wants to redt a shidduch for Ariella, and he says that his forgiving Osher will depend on whether Ariella agrees to look into the suggestion. Osher has a great conversation with Ariella, and a very positive phone conversation with his parents.
“H
ow is the Rav recovering?” Yigal Erenbaum asked politely. “I understand this was quite a harrowing experience…” “The Rav? I don’t know; you need to ask him…” The lot stretched out before him, bathed in sunlight and full of trash, just like he remembered it. Elazar Reiness walked along the edge, no longer afraid to be seen, nor to be identified. His battle had come to an end, in failure, but he was biting his lips and moving onward. There would be a hearing in court, but he wasn’t pinning much hope on it. Still, every so often, his legs carried him here. “So… how do you feel?” Mr. Erenbaum reworded his question. “Baruch Hashem. The first few days were rough, but as time goes on, I’m recovering.” “We enjoyed Osher very much over Shabbos,” the boy’s father said suddenly. “You’ve made a new person out of him.” “He’s a wonderful boy,” Rabbi Reiness told Yigal sincerely. “You should have lots of nachas from him. Life here, the atmosphere, the calm, what he went through… it all helped him progress, baruch Hashem. He’s really working on himself, and it shows. He has a new chavrusa now, and they get along very well.” “He also showed us a mezuzah he is in the

have passed already.” “So, it’s a bachur from a non-chareidi religious family, but over the past few years, the boy became much more frum. He is now learning in the Mir, in Yerushalayim. His family also became more religious as a result of where he was going, though they are not quite as yeshivish as him. Does the background sound okay?” “Yes, that’s fine.” “I’m talking about the son of Dr. Kreisman, from Zichron Yaakov. He’s the one who evaluated Osher.” “Aha.” Rabbi Reiness paused for a moment, and when nothing more was forthcom-

middle of writing. I’m not a big maven, but it looks pretty nice, doesn’t it?” “It’s really exceptional.” Rabbi Reiness turned his back on Shikovitzer’s lot and continued walking. “The sofer who is teaching him claims he has unusual talent, that Osher is gifted in this particular skill.” “I’m glad to hear. And it’s also interesting,” Mr. Erenbaum said, “because over the years, we never noticed him being drawn to this kind of thing — things like art, or the precision needed for this particular kind of work… I also don’t think that his handwriting is particularly nice.” “Safrus is a separate art, in a class of

its own. It’s not writing in the simple sense of the word; I think it’s better to describe it as drawing the letters.” “Well, I certainly don’t understand these things; I’m more of a dry numbers person. But what difference does it make? The main thing is, he should be successful at whatever he does.” “Amen v’amen,” Rabbi Reiness answered warmly. Then he lowered his voice. “On another subject, I have a shidduch suggestion for your oldest daughter. My wife spoke to her already, and she’s ready to listen, in theory, but she asked us to give you the details so you can make some inquiries for her.” “She wants us to look into it for her? Are you sure?” “Yes. Maybe it’s just as a way of getting my wife’s pressure off her… but the main thing is that she agreed.” “Did you suggest it to the other side already?” “I thought of doing it at the same time. I have the details about the boy and his family, and I’d be happy to get your information. If the suggestion sounds interesting to you, in general terms, I’ll reach out to them. Every day that passes is a shame.” “It’s true. As it is, too many days
ing, he asked, “So what do you say? This bachur, by the way, is one of the most special talmidim I have ever had.” “What do I say? Only that, after such an accusatory evaluation, I would be surprised if the honorable Dr. Kreisman would want us as mechutanim.” Yigal did not even seem to be making an effort to couch the bitterness. “Well, I think they would want it,” Rabbi Reiness said calmly. “I read the evaluation, and there is no accusation there. It’s simply the picture of a situation. And as a professional who is involved with boys who have strayed from the path, I am telling you that in every case, every child has his own free will. Parents are not immune from making mistakes, but if those mistakes do not involve critical issues, the child should be able to cope, and can cope.” Zelig Shikovitzer rose in his mind. He had never met the boy, the one who had left his father alone to leave This World, yearning, longing, and with a void that had never been filled. Those had been difficult years, replete with so much ideological falsehood. Maybe this could be a way to favorably judge those who fell by the wayside, but that did not absolve them from responsibil-
ity, even for one minute. “And Osher is coping beautifully,” he continued. “We just spoke about it, right?” “Nu, nu.” Erenbaum seemed to regret his momentary candidness. “So, do you want to hear about our family?” “I’d be happy to.” “I’m from Tel Aviv, and I have two brothers there. My father is from a longtime Berlin family; no one in the family is frum, though. My father moved to Eretz Yisroel but knew nothing about Yiddishkeit. My mother’s side did know a bit about tradition: Shabbos candles, Yom Kippur... Their name was Blum.” “And your wife?” “Her maiden name is Schick, from Kibbutz Yodfat.” “Does she have siblings?” “No, she’s an only child.” “And what was her family like?” Osher’s father smiled wryly. “A typical kibbutznik family. Her mother came from Hungary after the war, and settled there. I think her name was Sternberg; I’ll find out. But my father-in-law, of blessed memory, was what they call ‘the salt of the earth.’ His parents were from the founders of the kibbutz. Not that that means anything to anyone today.” “Were they Hungarian?” “I think that the Schick grandmother was from Hungary, and that he was from Russia, or Ukraine. He came to Eretz Yisroel as a young boy. I’ve heard lots of his stories from his Palmach days… He belonged to one of the underground movements; I don’t remember which one.” “So your wife is a fourth generation here, on this side.” “Yes. Actually, her grandfather’s family was really chareidi. I don’t know if he didn’t have any siblings, or if he just didn’t keep up with them when he went off. In any case, neither my wife nor I had any Torah-observant relatives from either side.” “And yet you became frum, and built a beautiful frum family, all on your own,” Rabbi Reiness noted quietly. He looked at the few lines he had written down, and distractedly poked holes with his pen in the cover of his notebook. “That’s remarkable.” Mr. Erenbaum didn’t reply. “Remind me, what was your wife’s grandfather’s name, the one from the Palmach?” “Schick. Zelig Schick.” He laughed. “My father-in-law’s father. He changed his family name when he went off the derech, but he kept his first name for some reason. My wife told me how strange it was for her, as a child, to have a grandfather with an archaic name like Zelig, and yet, he was a proud kibbutznik.” Sarah always said he had a sixth sense that helped him zero in and find the most miserable boys on the street. Elazar never knew if indeed there was such a thing, and if there was, if he had it. But the minute he heard the grandfather’s name, he felt with every fiber of his being that he knew exactly who this Zelig was. It was the Zelig he had just thought about five minutes earlier. Was this what Sarah called a “sixth sense”? “Schick,” he said, and turned around to glance back at the lost lot behind him, located on the seam-line between old Acco and the new part of the city. “Shick is Shikovitzer, isn’t it?” August 10, 2022

“I don’t know. But you know what? Now that you mention it, I do remember my wife telling me something like that. You seem to have done some homework even before calling me.” Did Mr. Erenbaum sound offended? “Not at all. I just remembered a Zelig that I knew. I mean,” he clarified, “that I heard about. He was a friend of my
back to the carpentry shop, to the dozens of boys waiting for him there, and to Osher, who was learning with his chavrusa now. Perhaps he should tell the lawyer to just withdraw the appeal and forget about the whole thing. There did not seem to be anything more for him to find in Acco. The game was over. But aside from the lot, there was still the carpentry shop, the terrific air, the open sea and a head clear of pressure — and that was all so good for his bachurim. So perhaps he would stay here. Or perhaps he’d move. In any case, he would continue to give his boys his heart and soul, and daven for success to the Master of all efforts and results, in Whose Hands it all rested. One needed to grow up to understand this kind of thing, but among his students, there were lots who were matured by life, which gave them the ability to absorb significant understandings like this. Osher, for example. When all was said and done, Yitzchak Shikovitzer could definitely be pleased.
Shikovitzer’s lot was no longer. It was standing abandoned and neglected; the foxes were celebrating their victory. father, zichrono l’vracha, before he left religion. Wow. I am totally amazed.” He fell silent, thinking about Zelig, about Yitzchak, about his own father, and about the will. The will that he was unable to carry out. Mr. Erenbaum said something about how small the world was, and wasn’t that interesting, and that they would find out more details and get back to him. But Elazar hardly heard him. He said a few polite word, hung up, and remained standing in the middle of the block. A kaleidoscope of thoughts and memories whirled through his mind, and he inhaled deeply. Shikovitzer’s lot was no longer. It was standing abandoned and neglected; the foxes were celebrating their victory. But his great-great-grandson was alive and well, and a ben Torah; he was overcoming his challenges and making progress. And if he, Elazar, could believe his sixth sense, he was now beginning a new path, a lighter one, a better one than any other he had tried so far. You tried to get the land, and you didn’t succeed, but you helped Osher build the person inside him. You tried to illuminate one forgotten place, but the fire took hold of a different branch, and it is glowing in its own way. True, a mikdash me’at, a shul, was supposed to be built here. And it was ironic to think that Osher himself was somewhat responsible for the failure. But maybe it also was a comfort of sorts. Elazar Reiness gazed at the lot on the corner of the street, as if to say goodbye, and turned around again. He could go
Osher He’s nice, this Avner, the new guy. I like him. Aside from Doron Nachman and him, the boys all tend to look at me with this annoyed expression, the same one they always looked at me. You know, the kind of expression that says, “Who are you anyway, little kid? You don’t understand anything.” But now, at least, I’m trying not to give them reasons to look at me like that. These days I hardly work on anything in the carpentry shop. Reb Elazar set up a small table for me on the side, and when the boys work, I sit and write. Sometimes, though, when I need a bit of a break, I’ll take the torch and a piece of wood and make whatever shapes I want. I prepared a sign like that for Doron Nachman, as a goodbye present. He’s probably leaving next week. He really liked the gift. I’d sketched the lighthouse, similar to what I’d done on the broom I’d made for Ariella, and he seemed very appreciative.

days now on something that looks like a chair with a special place for legs, similar to the chair Yechezkel Rosenberg has in Kiryat Chaim. I think he’s building it for me. He spends too much time hovering around me, as if he’s trying to evaluate my height with his eyes. I’m not saying anything, though, because I don’t want to ruin the surprise. It’s really nice of him. There were times when we didn’t really get along, and I think he wants to forget about those things. Maybe I’ll also make him a wooden plaque. I’d sketch a fox on it. I wanted to make a nameplate for Ariella’s front door, as a gift for her. Right now, however, Yisroel Meir Berg is still in the hospital, and she’ll have to
put mine up. I wanted to tell him that I was very flattered about that, but I didn’t find the right opportunity. I really need to learn to find opportunities to say things to people, because sometimes these things are pretty urgent. Like, I need to find the right time to apologize about the lot. I still haven’t found that opportunity, and I feel terrible about it. We actually spoke about the lot a few times, Reb Elazar and I. After he came back from the phone call with my father, and told me that our families go way back, and that the lot that he wanted to get was because of a promise that his father had made to my great-great-grandfather, that might have been a good time to apologize. But I couldn’t bring myself to do it. Tatty and Mommy were pleasantly surprised and happy when they heard that old story, but it was uncomfortable for me. I just feel, I don’t know, uneasy, whenever Reb Elazar mentions the lot, even if he talks about it in a general way. I know I should apologize to him. It makes no difference that this lot really should be more my family’s than his; he’s the one who worked so hard to get the land back, investing all that time, energy, and thought into it — until I came along and ruined it all. I already apologized, very briefly, for the kidnapping that I caused; I think I stammered my whole way through. But I can’t speak about the lot. It’s just such a loaded topic, made even more loaded by the fact that it’s still before the court hearing, and everything is so tense and looks so hopeless... I have to plan my words, especially since I’m the only one who knows that despite their hopes, they have almost no chance. I didn’t tell anyone about the form I’d signed that day for the Arab who came by; I’d basically made it official that there were no Reiness heirs around when the meeting should have occurred. I don’t know what Reb Elazar will do when he sees that document in court. I prefer not to think about it at all.
There did not seem to be anything more for him to find in Acco. The game was over. be on the yishuv for at least three more weeks. But eventually, b’ezras Hashem, he and his parents will come home, and it’ll be time for her to leave. I thought of her, wandering around like that without a real home of her own... It must be so hard. I chose a really nice piece of wood for the sign. It looked a lot like the one I’d etched “black sheep” into that time. Ariella told me that she had found it on the beach when she came to Acco. But I didn’t know which last name to write. In the end, I made a pretty border, with a delicate pattern, and put it away. It would wait patiently. First I’d give her the broom, maybe when I visit her one day at the Bergs, on their yishuv. She invited me to come over and said that Gadi is also waiting to see me. I’m also busy writing another mezuzah. No one will buy a mezuzah from a sixteen-year-old boy, but Tatty was happy to accept my first one; he even put it up on the front door at home! He called me the other day to let me know that he’d taken it to a rav who is an expert in this area, and the rav said it’s not only kosher, but mehudar! Maybe I’ll also make them a nameplate, and the mezuzah I’m working on right now will be for Reb Elazar. I already made him a nameplate, and immediately, he took off the old metal one that had been there so he could 108

CHANA GLUCK
It’s Shabbos afternoon; time moves in slow motion. Languid walks. Indulgent nods to requests for one more freeze pop. Relaxed observation of kids at play. But there, down that street, you pass a shul and the energy changes. The air is charged with purpose as the sweetest sounds pour out in supplication, in praise. Ethereal, they perfume the air with purity and drift heavenward. It’s the glorious sing-song of youngsters chanting Tehillim. It is a rare privilege, then, to hear from the shepherds of our tzon kedoshim, the Tehillim group leaders themselves, about their holy work.
REB SHAUL KATZ Asked to be referred to as Reb Shaul ben Gittel, this longtime mispallel of the Shinova shul led a chevras Tehillim in Monsey for years. His longtime work impacting youngsters began back in 1976.
HOW DID YOU GET STARTED? It all began when we found that the kids in shul were being rowdy at shalosh seudos. They were noisy, there were fights, and then they would be sent outside. It really wasn’t very pleasant. We knew then that the kids needed to be kept busy, so Reb Nochum Kornbluh and I gathered them together and sang zemiros with them. It was beautiful. Reb Baruch Glauber (of clothier fame) was a bachur then, and he began a chevras Tehillim, replete with stories and more, in addition to our shalosh seudos efforts. He was wonderful. When he was engaged and ready to move from Monsey, he asked me to take over.
HOW DID YOU REWARD THE KIDS? I was careful to only get treats that mothers would approve of: Captain Cool freezepops without food coloring, jello candies that don’t stick to the teeth (I still give them to my einiklach), and a variety of chips and snacks to ensure that every kid had what he liked. I would spend around $25 a week in those days.
WERE THE TREATS SPONSORED? After the generous discount that Reb Mordechai Klein of Motty’s gave me when I came to stock up on Fridays, 90% of the expenses were out of pocket. Occasionally, people threw in $20 to $25.
HOW MANY KIDS WERE IN YOUR GROUP? When Reb Boruch formed the chevras Tehillim, there were about 20 to 25 boys in the group. In the summer, the crowds were big128

TEHILLIM SALVATIONS After the passing of my father, a”h, my mother lived with us. When she got sick with congestive heart failure (CHF), Dr. Howard Friedman of NYU cautioned us, “Don’t let your mom be placed on a respirator!” But one Shabbos she had fluid in her lungs and was having trouble breathing, so she was rushed to the hospital. I hastily arranged for a yungerman to take the nosh stash from my basement and lead the chevras Tehillim. As it turned out, my mother was put on a respirator. When I asked when she’d be taken off, I got an incredulous, “Are you kidding? We just put her on! Not before 24 hours, at least!” As 5 p.m. came and I stood in the hospital without my group of sweet boys, I began saying Tehillim with them from afar, by heart. A moment after I finished, the nurse came to tell me that my mother was off the respirator. Furthermore, she was released from the hospital that very night! The power of Tehillim is tremendous. I caught COVID in the early stages of the pandemic and was in a coma on a respirator for seven weeks. I credit my survival to the Tehillim said by my wife and children, and to my chevras Tehillim years.
ger. Once I took over, there were some 80 to 90 boys in the group, sometimes over 100. And I made sure the boys came. I personally hung the flyers that stated the timing and promised nosh and prizes. At one point, the group was so successful that the girls wanted something too! My youngest daughter, then 14, started a group for them in our backyard. My son banged together some benches and tables, my daughter bought nosh, and she led that group of 25 to 30 girls for a couple of years.

I began leading the group in the summer. At the season’s end, I asked, “Kinderlach, would you come in the winter, too?” They yelled an enthusiastic “YES!” and I began doing a winter group, as well. The winter group was smaller than the summer group, though.

REB YOSSEL RUBINSTEIN Fondly known as Fetter Yossi to his many Tehillim group graduates and the bachurim who have accompanied him on his uplifting Shavuos trips to Mezhibuzh, Reb Yossel of Williamsburg led his Tehillim group with a slightly different twist.
WHAT TIME DID YOUR CHEVRAS TEHILLIM START? At 8 a.m. every Shabbos morning. What, should we only say Tehillim when we’re all napped and rested? I believe that you should start your day with Tehillim. We even adjusted the timing to work for every yom tov, too. On Yom Kippur, when Shacharis began extra early, my chevrah began at 6:30 a.m. And you know what? The boys all came running! Fathers would complain to me that their sons would wake them at 7 a.m. to be accompanied to chevras Tehillim. I told them, “This is a great investment in their chinuch.”
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO START THIS GROUP? I was in Tosh one Shabbos and watched as the Rebbe, zt”l, said the entire sefer Tehillim, as he did every Shabbos. When I saw him surrounded by kinderlach, all saying Tehillim together with such a bren, I knew I needed to start such a thing myself. At that time, I had three children in shidduchim. After I started the chevras Tehillim, I was zoche to marry them all off in one year!
WHAT WERE YOUR WEEKLY EXPENSES? I went all out with the nosh and gifts. (Years later, one of my “nosh gabba’im” told me, “Do you have any idea how much nosh I pilfered every week? I helped myself, I gave some to my friends…” I laughed. “I knew all about it,” I told the boy. “But why would I hurt your feelings for a bit of nosh?”) I also raffled off books and seforim. Those prizes alone cost me $100 per week. A father once told me that before I give his son another set of seforim I should buy him a seforim shrank!
WERE ANY OF THE REWARDS SPONSORED? Hardly; most of the expenses came out of my own pocket. Here and there, people gave some money if they had yahrtzeit or needed a refuah. I’d say that over all the years I 130

ran my group, I must have spent tens of thousands of dollars on it.
WHAT WAS THE CHEVRAS TEHILLIM SCHEDULE LIKE? When it came to Tehillim, we first said kapitel kuf yud tes. I chose three pesukim that speak of the importance of Torah — Mah ahavti, Ner l’ragli, Se’afim Saneisi — and we chanted them three times, progressively louder as we went along. The kids would scream the words; there was nothing like it. They knew that with Torah, you can run from all your tzaros! We then said the fifteen Shir Hamaalos of Shabbos, and kapitel kuf mem daled, for which I had a special tune. We also sang songs and I told the boys stories.
DID YOU RUN YOUR GROUP IN THE SUMMER? Every week. I could have six kids because everyone else was up in the mountains, but I farbrenged with them all the same. Why should they feel bad that they were left in the city?
HOW MANY KIDS WERE IN YOUR GROUP? Sometimes 120 to 130, and sometimes 80, depending on the time of year.
WHO COULD JOIN? Anyone. And they all felt like VIPs because I believe that everyone’s a star. I’d call the struggling kids up to the bimah to say the Tehillim out loud.
HOW MANY YEARS DID YOU RUN YOUR GROUP? Twenty-five years. Some of the former group boys are grandfathers by now! Before I moved from Williamsburg, I gave over my parchment Tehillim to two yungeleit who would run the chevras Tehillim further.

MRS. SORA TAUBER* Unique in the field of Tehillim groups as a Mommy and then Bubby leader, Mrs. Sora Tauber of Monsey is still leading groups of our youngest treasures in heartfelt shevach v’hoda’ah to Hashem.
WHY TEHILLIM? I’ve loved Tehillim since I was a little kid. In fact, a boy I used to play with when we were small asked one of my siblings years later if I still loved Tehillim so much! You could say I was looking for a reason to start a chevras Tehillim group, and when my uncle was sick, I did. I’m still doing it 35 years later, baruch Hashem.
WHO JOINED? The neighborhood kids — even the two-year-olds. The first word one of my own children said was haleh-li. And her 21-month-old now says halleli too!
HOW DID YOU WORK OUT YOUR NOSH STOCK? My father included me in his Erev Shabbos shopping; he considered it a zechus to take part in this way. He’d bring snack bags from Klein’s grocery as long as his age permitted it. When he stopped, a neighbor of mine, wanting that same zechus, took over.
ry. On Shabbos Mevorchim, for our brachos siyum, I divide the room in half and have a bracha/amen exchange for each type of food. It’s precious!
WHEN IS YOUR GROUP IN OPERATION? At this point, it’s every day! I have a Tehillim line so kids can conference on the phone. I have 15 to 20 kids on the phone on a daily basis, and the siyumim attract around 50 to 60 kids. I also run an initiative to encourage families to say Tehillim on Shabbos Mevorchim. Families who divide and say the entire Sefer Tehillim get to pick up a prize at a local prize store. Likewise, during the Shovavim weeks, I also give out prizes to families who complete Sefer Tehillim. I have a closet full of prizes and books, and I keep running different Tehillim programs with whatever I have in it. Prizes for my weekly raffle also come from this closet of treasures.
TOUCHED BY TEHILLIM
DO YOU HAVE A SPONSOR? A relative of mine gives me $80 a month to help with the expenses, and I often get sponsors for prizes that I raffle off or distribute to the participants. Other times, I fundraise. I also make a brachos siyum every Shabbos Mevorchim, and that is sometimes sponsored.
WHAT DO YOU SAY AS A GROUP? We start with a beautiful Ribono Shel Olam tefillah, where we ask for a refuah sheleimah for the sick in the zechus of Shabbos. Sometimes I tell the kids a sto132

My young neighbor was in Pre-1A when she overheard her mother on the phone mentioning a birthmark-removal procedure for a child. The girl knocked on my door, insisting that her sister had a big booboo and that we must say Tehillim now! Another time, a neighborhood boy was involved in a car accident, and several kids came running over so we could all say Tehillim together. -------------------------------------------------------------------------Author’s note: I grew up on Mrs. Tauber’s Tehillim group. She was a living legend, walking among us and chanting softly, radiating such love for us kids and for Tehillim. To this day, her sing-song accompanies me whenever I say Mi Yitein, and I can still taste those tri-colored wafers flavored with Shabbos afternoon sunshine.

REB ELIEZER SPITZER Tiferes Yonah, an organization that provides programs for boys ages eight to thirteen during and after school hours, and also during vacation, was founded and named for the legendary Harav Yonah Feurst, zt”l, from Nitra. Reb Eliezer Spitzer runs the chevras Tehillim, which is only one of its programs.
HOW DID YOU GET INVOLVED IN THE TIFERES YONAH CHEVRAS TEHILLIM? Reb Shloime Feldman, z”l, a tayere Yid, founded the organization in honor of Harav Yonah Feurst, who had raised him. Reb Shloime was niftar young, and his son reached out to me to take over.
HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU BEEN RUNNING IT? By now it’s 28 or 29 years, kein yirbu, and we run it at two locations. One of them is Reb Yonah’s old apartment.
WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE CHEVRAS TEHILLIM PROGRAM? We started by having a speaker every week. Different mechanchim come down each week to speak to the boys and tell them a story. They’re all volunteers, by the way. Reb Shloime, z”l, was very persuasive when he fundraised, and no one said no to him. That’s how he ran his entire organization on a voluntary basis. The speech takes around an hour, and over the years we added the fifteen Shir Hamaalos of Shabbos. Two boys are chosen each week to stand at the bimah to recite the kapitlach as “chazan.”
have boys signed up from eighteen different yeshivos.
WHAT DOES YOUR REWARD SYSTEM LOOK LIKE? We’re the most conservative of all the groups out there; we give each child a couple of cookies. At the 13th Avenue location, snacks and danishes are distributed sometimes. At some point, a monetary system was introduced. Good attendance and behavior rewards a child with point cards each week, and our Otzar Hamatanos is open on set dates so the kids can buy prizes with their accumulated points.
HOW MANY BOYS ATTEND EACH WEEK? The crowd size fluctuates, depending on the time of year. Our 17th Avenue branch sees around 100 kids per week, and our 13 Avenue branch around 80. And summers see a lot of other groups close, so we have a rise in attendance then.
DID YOU RUN YOUR GROUPS IN THE SUMMER? The main site on 17th Avenue operates all year, and the 13th Avenue location is closed during the summer.
WHAT KIND OF CROWD DO YOU HAVE? We’re open for anyone to join. It’s mostly for Yiddish speakers, but even those who don’t speak the language enjoy it! We
The zechus of these selfless leaders is enviable. May it be a continued source of bracha for them, and may we all be zoche to harness our tefillos to the unparalleled power of tinokos shel beis raban. 134

The Warmth of Shabbos by:
NESANEL YOEL SAFRAN For many, if there’s one food that spells “Shabbos,” it’s cholent. There’s something about the warm, bubbly, fragrant dish that sets the tone for the day of menucha. Like many Jewish foods, its origin is steeped in history and meaning.
I
n this case, it’s not so much about what is cooked as how it’s cooked: slowly, overnight, from before Shabbos begins until the following day. This isn’t only a culinary secret — as the world is increasingly chapping the geshmakeit of foods cooked low and slow — but it was actually initiated as a protest against the apikorsim known as the Tzedokim, who lived in the times of the Second Beis Hamikdash. These folks, consisting primarily of the wealthier and more modern element of the Jewish population, did not hold by the Torah Shebaal Peh, but only the written Torah (which is ridiculous, if for no other reason than if it wasn’t for an oral tradition, they wouldn’t even know how to read the words and letters of the written Torah). One of their meshugasim was that the Torah says not to light a fire on Shabbos (Shemos 35:3) — and that could, without Chazal’s interpretation, be read as not to have any fire in your house on Shabbos. Therefore, they claimed, a person may not have or eat any warm food on Shabbos day. For the same reason, they would sit in the dark on Shabbos night, with no candles burning. (Someone might think these folks were being “extra-frum,” and that halevai today we should have such apikorsim, who want to be more strict instead of less. But I say punkt farkert: They were trying to make Yiddishkeit so unpleasant and difficult that people would drop it altogether.) So, to show that they weren’t like them, but rather that they believed in the truth of Chazal, on Shabbos the Yidden davka served and ate hot food — food that had been cooking all night in a perfectly permissible way, aka cholent. The Rema advocates this in his gloss to the Shulchan Aruch. (A whiz kid who will remain nameless asked if nowadays we could
140

www.thebpview.com · 718.408.8770
accomplish the same thing by eating ice cream for the Shabbos day meal, which had sat all night in a freezer powered by electricity, which is a type of fire…) Unlike today, many people throughout history didn’t have their own private stoves and ovens, so the custom developed that before Shabbos each household would bring their sealed and marked cholent pots to the local baker, who put them all in his big oven to bake and bubble until the next morning, when the families would come to pick them up after davening. Now, this idea of an oven-baked cholent may sound like a quaint custom and maybe even culinarily interesting, but of course, it’s a relic from the past. Er… except for the cholent of yours truly. It could have been a malfunctioning stove top, a draw to our ancient ways, or maybe just a cook’s curiosity, I don’t remember, but one time I decided to bake my cholent in a pot in the oven — and I never looked back. The cholent came out
mamash amazing. I think part of the reason is the even cooking and the convection an oven creates. Also, because no part of the pot sits directly on the heat source, you can get away with putting in less liquid, and thus get a more intense, concentrated flavor. All I know is, it’s geshmak. “But what about a crockpot?” you’ll taaneh. “It also surrounds the pot with heat, and it also doesn’t burn easily.” I won’t deny it. There are some amazing crockpot cholents out there — just not mine. (Full disclosure: I do make crockpot cholent on Pesach — mainly because we have a teeny Pesach oven. When I do, I line the crockpot with a disposable aluminum pot of about the same size to keep it clean. A crockpot liner bag would also do, but this allows for noshing (more about that soon). I also cover the top of the ceramic part of the cooker with a sheet of aluminum foil before covering it with the glass lid, in an attempt to emulate the “total surround” heat of an oven.)

Of course, there are almost as many varieties of cholent as there are Yidden, and over our long galus, they have taken on different styles and flavors, depending on the cuisine and ingredient availability of our host countries. If you had to break it down, five of the general categories of cholent are schalet, chamin, skhina and dafina, osh savo and tabeet. Schalet is another word for the typical Eastern European Ashkenazi style of cholent generally that contains beans, barley, meat and potatoes, with little spicing, often with kishke inside. Chamin, meaning “hot” in Lashon Hakodesh, is the typical Sephardi style cholent, with roots in Spain, Portugal, North Africa and the Middle East. Generally chicken is used, not meat, and whole eggs are put inside. Moroccan cholent is called skhina. It includes chickpeas, rice, meat, potatoes, eggs and spices (often, each ingredient is placed in individual mesh bags within the pot and served separately for a nice presentation). Osh savo is served by Bukharan Jews, and it is a sweetand-sour rice dish. Tabeet is the Iraqi version of cholent and consists of a whole chicken stuffed with rice and lots of spices. Wherever it’s found, cholent has developed its own lore. Even its own humor. As the joke goes: Q. When do people eat cholent? A. Well, it depends. If you’re a bachur, Friday night. If you’re a yungerman, Sunday evening. While we’re on the subject of Friday night cholent snacking, I’m all for it — but there are some important things you have to know to make it permissible to return the crockpot to the heat source until Shabbos day (assuming you’ve left some for then). First of all, the cholent has to be fully cooked and ready to eat. If not, then returning the crockpot to its heating base would cause it to become more fully cooked, which is the prohibited Shabbos melacha of bishul. Also, the crockpot has to have a separation between the heating element and the ceramic part of the cooker. (This is similar to covering the fire or heating elements of a stove before Shabbos, in order to be able to return hot food to the fire.) This separation can be created by placing a piece of thick aluminum foil (some say it should be thicker than what you would use in order to keep the heating element

clean of spills, or that it should be a few layers of regular aluminum foil) between the heating element and the ceramic bowl of the cooker. Some opinions hold that there needs to be a more significant space between the heating element and the ceramic crockpot insert, which can be created by placing a few balls of tin foil under the insert. (Even that opinion would agree that for a crockpot or slow cooker that isn’t surrounded on the sides by a heating element, but only sits upon the heating element, no spacing is necessary, and one need only cover the heating element with aluminum foil.) Whatever the case, some say that the knobs should preferably be removed or covered. To be able to return the pot to the heat, two additional conditions must be met: When you remove the pot from the heat, you have to keep the pot in your hand. It may be placed on a counter or table when you dish out the food, as long as your hand is still on the pot. (Some say that you need to support the pot in a way that if you would remove your hand, the pot would fall.) You also must intend to return it to the heat source. One more condition is that when putting the ceramic insert back onto the heating element, the food must still be halachically hot, or at least warm enough to be pleasant to eat. As always, for these and all halachic matters one should ask and follow the psak of their rav. So, did you think after all that talk about baked cholent I’d just leave you hanging? Of course not!
EASY AND GESHMAK OVENBAKED CHOLENT (Serves 8) INGREDIENTS 3 8 1 2 3 6 2 2 1 1 1
lb. of your favorite cholent meat, cubed large potatoes, peeled and cubed cup barley, optional (We have grainsensitive eaters, so I leave it out.) (14 oz.) cans baked beans in tomato sauce medium onions, peeled and chopped T. cooking oil lb. hot dogs, sliced into approximately 1-inch slices T. onion soup mix Water (more is needed if using barley) cup ketchup T. salt T. garlic powder
INSTRUCTIONS 1. Heat the oil in a large ovenproof pot, and saute the onions. When they have started to brown, turn off the stove — its job is done! 2. Add the other ingredients (except the water), and mix everything together well. 3. Add water to cover the ingredients, plus another 2 inches. (If using barley, add additional water, equivalent to three times the amount of barley being used.) 4. Place the covered pot in an oven set to 250°. The pot should be at least slightly raised from the oven floor. I use the convection setting to achieve even heating. Bake for 10 to 12 hours. (As every oven and pot cooks differently, I’d advise checking about halfway through to make sure there is still enough liquid to bubble. If not, add more water.) All the above is done before Shabbos — I do it Thursday, overnight. For Shabbos heating, reheat the pot in the oven until it bubbles, then place it on a standard hotplate or blech — or transfer it to a crockpot set to “low.” Enjoy your oven-baked cholent, for a real taste of Jewish history!

Warmed By Her Light He was a true talmid chacham, the only frum one among his brothers. Having grown up in a very secular leftist home in Eretz Yisroel, his sincere embracing of the life of a Torah Yid was a curious phenomenon. What propelled him to reach higher? His mother, he shared, knew virtually nothing about Yiddishkeit. She was aware of the mitzvah of hadlakas neiros, however, and knew that it was an opportune time to daven for her children. Thus, every week, she prayed that her children grow up to be like Ben Gurion. Who could be a better role model for a secular person than the prime minister?
O
ne day, his mother saw in the news that Ben Gurion had visited the Chazon Ish, zt”l. She read the descriptions of the poignant meeting and thought to herself that if Ben Gurion had troubled himself to travel all the way to Bnei Brak to meet this holy man, he must be even greater than the prime minister! From that day on, she began to daven during licht bentching that this son grow up to be just like the Chazon Ish. The man pointed out that he was the only one among his siblings to become frum after his mother changed her tefillos. Yes, the power of a mother’s tefillos are inestimable. Her tears run down her cheeks and flood the gates of Heaven. They reflect her innermost desires and stimulate a downpour of reward. There is another story of a simple woman that is well-known. This woman did not know how to daven, but in a few simple words in her native tongue, Russian, she beseeched Hashem while lighting the Shabbos licht. Raising her arms upward, she implored that her son Shmuel grow up to be a talmid chacham. Her modest pleas were answered. Her Shmuel turned out to be the gaon, Reb Aharon Shmuel Koidenoiver, zt”l, who authored numerous works. (He was the father of the Kav Hayashar, Reb Tzvi Hirsh Koidenoiver, zt”l.) One of the builders of Torah in America repeated that as a child, he would watch with interest as his mother shed many tears before the licht. The financial situation in their home was beyond desperate, so he was quite sure that his mother was begging for bread, for food for her family. One week, he sat himself down right near his mother so he could hear her quiet prayers. “Ribono Shel Olam, light up the eyes of my children in Your holy Torah,” she cried, repeating the words again and again, tears streaming down her cheeks. “Hearing her earnest wishes, I knew what my tafkid in life was,” the gadol concluded. The mitzvah of hadlakas neiros is truly a privilege for the Yiddishe woman. It is her special The Boro Park View

Tefillas Chana Brought down from the Shelah Hakadosh, among others, it is a segulah for a woman to say the haftorah of the first day of Rosh Hashanah after tzinding licht. This reading is from Shmuel 1:1, which talks about Chana’s tefillah. Chana was famous for the style of davening that she introduced — “rak sefaseha naos, v’kolah lo yishama,” her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Still, Hashem heard her entreaties and blessed her with a son, Shmuel Hanavi, who was equivalent in greatness to Moshe and Aharon. When she arrived at the Mishkan, she poured forth her heart in gratitude for Hashem, with her prayer, “Vatispallel Chana.”
time, a time when she can ask, implore and plead on behalf of her children, her husband and herself. It is a special eis ratzon, and when facing the heilige licht, her supplications are heard. Saying Tefillas Chana before the Shabbos licht is a segulah for all women, Tefillos that mirror the s’char inmeriting children for the childless and bringing joy into child-raising. The trinsic to this mitzvah — children Kitzur Shulchan Aruch indicates that it should be said with kavanah, with an talmidei chachamim — are that much understanding of the text. more potent when uttered specifically at this moment, while fulfilling the mitzvah. “Haragil ba’ner,” one who is careful with and beautifies this mitzvah, the Gemara in Maseches a guarantee, he would lend her some money.

The rebbetzin did not hesitate and ran to fetch her precious rah and mitzvos. tichel. Her face shone, free of worry. She would be able to give tzedakah before licht tzinding as usual! “Az m’tzindt azoi licht, iz nisht kein vinder az m’hut azelche voile kinder! — If one tzinds licht this way, it is no wonder that one has such good children,” Reb Yehoshua exclaimed, pointing to their son, the future Reb Yissachar Dov of Belz, who was but It was Erev Shabbos in the home of Reb Yehoshua of Belz, a young child. zt”l.

Spreading Light with Generosity
Techinos — Special Supplications of the Yiddishe Mamme Throughout the generations, women have recognized the tremendous eis ratzon of hadlakas neiros, capitalizing on the time by pouring out their hearts in tefillah, both in their own words and following established techinos. Little is known about the origins of these techinos, as many were authored by women who may have chosen to remain anonymous. One piece, “Techinas Imahos,” was written by Rebbetzin Sarah Rivkah Rochel Leah Rapaport, a sister to Reb Itzikl Hamburger who passed away some 250 years ago. Others are more well-known, and songs have even been written using their words. They call out every mother’s deepest dream, “Vezakeini l’gadel banim uvnei banim… ume’irim es haolam baTorah uv’maasim tovim…”

Shir Hashirim All kesavim are holy, but Shir Hashirim is kodesh kadoshim. That is one reason why it is customarily said on Erev Shabbos, as the kedushah of Shabbos descends upon the world. The following happened one Friday night when a circle of chassidim were in Mezeritch by the Maggid for Shabbos. They were sitting together and reviewing the Torah of their Rebbe, while in a separate room sat Reb Aharon of Karlin, his lips murmuring incessantly. Suddenly, there was a knock at the door and an attendant of the Maggid came in. “Where is Reb Aharon?” he asked. “The Rebbe requests that you stop saying Shir Hashirim. With your Shir Hashirim, you are shaking the Upper Spheres and our Rebbe cannot sleep!” When the holy Chasam Sofer took leave of his rebbe, Reb Nosson Adler, zt”l, Reb Nosson taught him two ways of saying Shir Hashirim. From that point on, the Chasam Sofer would say Shir Hashirim once a month, investing great preparations and deep concentration that made reciting it take a long time. Reb Nachum’ke of Horodna said that the holy Yesod V’shoresh Ha’avodah, Reb Alexander Ziskind, zt”l, wrote Shir Hashirim in his own ksav on a kosher megillah. Every Erev Shabbos, he would say it with fervor and d’veikus. His reading split the heavens, Reb Nachum’ke said, so much so that all the malachim would stop singing shirah so they could listen to the sweet sound of Reb Alexander’s Shir Hashirim. Much as the sanctified words of Shir Hashirim are veiled in mystery and can be understood on countless levels, so too are the deep reasons for reciting it at this time of the week.

Rekindling the Light The mitzvah of hadlakas neiros is intended to be fulfilled when the woman is calm and ready, with a happy heart, a symbol of peace and tranquility, following in the ways of Aharon Hakohen. And much like the Menorah attested that the Shechinah rests upon Klal Yisroel, she is grateful for the privilege to bring the Shechinah into her home. The woman steps toward the candles. Dressed in special Shabbos garb, her “bigdei kehunah,” she approaches the holy task of ushering the kedushah of Shabbos into her mikdash me’at. Reminiscent of the Menorah in the Beis Hamikdash, she lights with olive oil as an extra hiddur. She waits for each little flame to go up before kindling the next spark. The glow of the licht radiates joy and serenity in the home, essentially extinguishing the fires of dispute, sadness and weekday worries. Hidden in the flames of the Shabbos licht is a vestige of the Ohr Haganuz. Basking in the aura of this holy licht has an impact on the Yiddishe neshamah, whether it is felt externally or not. May we all merit sensing the kedushah, and seeing the fulfillment of the ultimate light of the Geulah, as it says, “Im atem mishamrim neiros shel Shabbos, ani mareh lachem neiros shel Tzion.”

What makes a bean a bean? Beans are a subcategory of legumes, which are plants that bear fruit that grow inside a pod. Under the legume umbrella are pulses, which are dried beans — including lentils, dry beans, and dry peas. The word pulse stems from the Latin word puls, which means seeds that can be made into a thick soup. Beans are also a subcategory of seeds (yes, they are everyone’s cousin). Unlike other seeds, beans are seeds you can eat (say that quickly three times), and they are also more often used as food rather than to grow more plants. So beans are legumes and seeds, but not all legumes and seeds are beans. Confused yet? Great. History of Beans Beans are one of the longest cultivated foods in history. They played a major role in Egyptian agriculture, and Egyptians are credited with being the first ones to cook beans. Beans were an important source of protein and vitamins in the BCE time period as well as the Middle Ages, since they were cheap and easy to grow. More bean types were later developed in Central and South America, including our favorite cacao bean. In fact, Christopher Columbus brought those over to Europe in the late 16th century after he saw them in South America.
Cacao and Coffee Beans Some of the small pleasures in life can be found in a freshly brewed cup of coffee or a piece of chocolate. But did you know that coffee beans and cacao beans are not beans at all? Coffee grows on bushes in clumps of bright red cherries, and the “coffee bean” is the seed of these cherries. As for cacao beans, while they do technically grow inside pods on the cacao plant, they are classified as the seeds of the fruit of the cacao tree. To add further confusion, cacao seeds are also considered nuts, which makes chocolate… a fruit.

Favorite Bean Dish The most popular bean dish in Jewish cuisine is… cholent. Cultivated over many years and in kosher kitchens all over the world, cholent is the comfort food of every Shabbos afternoon (and evening, for those of us who have a taste Friday night. And Thursday night. And…). It started with Yiddishe balabustes who would take their pot of beans, meat and other ingredients and put it in the local baker’s oven until Shabbos morning so there would be warm food on Shabbos. There’s a machlokes over where the word cholent originates. Some say it’s a compound word of the French chaud (“hot) and lent (“slow”), or of chaudes lentes (“hot lentils”). Others say it’s the present tense of the Latin word calentem, meaning “that which is hot,’’ via Old French chalant (present tense of chalt, from the verb chaloir, “to warm”). Wherever the name comes from, I’ll have a full serving, thank you.
Chickpeas and Peanuts
The Navy Bean — Or Is It? Navy beans got their name from the American Navy forces in the early 1900s, when these beans became a staple for American forces. Providing meals that were both economical and nutritious quickly made these beans a star. During World War II, in fact, when many forces were stationed in Australia, navy beans were produced for the very first time in “the Land Down Under” to great benefit and success. Though navy beans are among the smallest types of beans, they are great energy-boosters and help lower cholesterol as well.
I don’t know who was in charge of naming different foods, but whoever it was must have been very confused by the time they got to chickpeas and peanuts. Although their names would suggest otherwise, chickpeas aren’t peas, and peanuts aren’t true nuts. Peanuts and chickpeas are both considered beans. Chickpea comes from the Latin word cicer, referring to the plant family of legumes, Fabaceae, that chickpeas grow on. As for peanuts, they are considered part of the legume and bean family since they grow in a pod, though they do share many characteristics with tree nuts.
Beans in Language Full of Beans
Spill the beans
Full of beans, meaning full of energy, originates from 14th century Europe when horses were fed beans. After getting fed, the horses would be energetic and giddy, hence “full of beans” becoming the way to describe their liveliness and energy.
The phrase spilling the beans means to tell a secret or share something you shouldn’t. This idiom originates from ancient Greece, where different colored beans were used for voting. If someone would literally spill the beans, the proportion of yes to no would be seen, prematurely revealing the results of the vote.
