We see a fierce warrior. One with the unrelenting vigor to overcome any challenge set forth. Although few in years, when it comes to facing obstacles, Ari is the leader of the pack.

TO EACH ITS OWN (Re: A Table of Tradition, Inbox, Issue 53) In response to the letter in which someone wrote that almonds are not considered nuts, it is interesting to note that in our family we eat all types of nuts during Tishrei besides almonds. Each family has its own tradition, and we should each stick to the minhagim passed down in our respective families. A Reader

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LEARNING EXPERIENCE (Re: Their Time to Learn, Inbox, Issue 53) I’m writing in response to the mother who was wondering why young girls need so many days off from school. I am a mother of lots of girls, ka”h, the oldest of whom has recently graduated school. I cannot give you a compelling reason for young girls having so much off — simply because I have no idea how the schools decide on such matters. I would like, however, to offer another perspective. When girls are home, they don’t have to help from 9 a.m. until they go to sleep. There is a lot more to a home and a mother-daughter relationship than helping out. Spending time at home is a beautiful, healthy way for a girl to learn many skills, such as verbal and nonverbal communication, relationship skills, and good middos practices. She can also help out a little on her level, experiment with cooking and baking, as well as have some time to play with friends, read or whatever else she enjoys to do. Yes, I know lots of women work and are not available to be home The Boro Park View welcomes your comments, feedback and letters. Please email comments@thebpview.com.

with their kids. There are also many mothers who are too busy to have the brain space to to deal with their young daughters who can be at school... But if you are home with your daughter/s, allow them to experience erev yom tov, allow them to learn from you, and build bonds that can not be taught in school. Much hatzlacha! M.P.

WHERE ARE THE VEGGIES?? (Re: A Manual of Menus and Other Minutiae, Issue 50) I can’t even begin to imagine just how long it took Rivky Friedman to come up with a full yom tov menu for readers of The Boro Park View, and it is clear how much time and effort she put into planning sixteen absolutely gorgeous meals. However, I couldn’t help but notice that there are almost no vegetables and salads on the tempting yom tov menu. By my count, there are three salads, a cabbage side dish, one offering of roasted vegetables, and two vegetable soups. (Sorry, candied carrots and potatoes don’t qualify for me on this — I’m talking about healthy, low-cal options, the kinds we are supposed to pile onto our plates because they are full of nutritional benefits.) I get that almost all of us, myself included, go for items we might not otherwise eat when we prepare those extraspecial yom tov meals. But it was more than a little surprising to see that vegetables that fall into the good-for-you category only made it onto the menu seven times out of a total of fifty-two non-dessert courses. Rivky, thank you for so many great ideas. When you do next year’s menu, please, please, please give us some veggie ideas as well so we can keep our families healthy! And thank you The Boro Park View for including a blank sample menu page for us to use as we meal-plan for our own families. Gut yom tov to all, Y.A.

FAVORITE FOODS First of all I have to say that I absolutely love your magazine. I wait for it each week, and I read it from cover to cover. The column I like most is the recipe section. The recipes are always easy, tasty and on the mark. I make sure to clip the recipes each week and keep them in a special folder. I saw that you recently had some great recipes for roasts that looked delicious. I am looking forward to making them for yom tov. Thank you, and keep up your great work! Chaya

TIMELY TISHREI TIPS I’d like to share two ideas that work well in my home at this time of year. I found that the honey bottle covers are perfect for Canola oil. I remove the green cap from the oil bottle (without ripping off the foil). I then twist the honey cover on and poke a knife through the hole to puncture the foil.

on the move Hey, Mindy! How are you? Did you hear who’s moving? Who? Your daughter and those adorable grandkids joining the mass exodus to New Jersey? Nope! My favorite kitchen store The Peppermill is going places. You’re kidding! When? Where to?

they’re moving to 4622 18th Avenue after Sukkos.

That’s a great location - right between Boro Park and Flatbush!

I heard they’re planning a grand opening bash for adults and kids too. And an exclusive sale for customers before they move!

Yes! A newly-renovated store will give everyone an upgraded shopping experience.

I’m sure some things won’t change though -like their quality products and exceptional service!

Sounds exciting, Sara. how do I do find out more?

Easy! Text "PEPPERMILL" to 33222 to get their text messages. You can also sign up for emails on theIR website thepeppermillinc.com. That’s the best way to keep up with all their news.

This is a very neat, clean way to dispense oil! Also, those who have a Leiter’s Sukkah and use heavy, double-sided tape to affix the noi sukkah usually find it hard to remove the residue from the panels. I use paint thinner for the purpose, and it works like magic! I put the paint thinner into an empty Windex bottle, and wearing a mask (which we anyhow have handy!) I spray the walls and it easily comes off. Sandy

It is with a troubled heart that I write this letter. I do not have an agenda nor do I have an ax to grind. I just wish to bring up an issue that is very painful to me. Before I do so, I would like to make an important disclaimer: There are many wonderful shadchanim who only mean the best and try their best, and this letter is addressed to a minority. I have spoken to a few people who, like me, have had negative interactions with shadchanim, and therefore I decided to bring light to the matter. My twenty-year-old son has just begun the shidduch parsha. We have a complicated family situation; we are a blended family. I understand that not everyone can think of a suitable match, but what I have been bothered by was the total disrespect with which I’ve been treated. The following are some of the unpleasant interactions I’ve experienced: I sent a shadchan a picture of my blended family, and she must have forgotten the details. She called me up and asked who all the others in the picture are. So I apologized and explained that maybe I had not been clear that we are a blended family. She emailed me back, “Count your numbers before you count your blessings!” (Meaning I should be aware of how many children I have before I speak to a shadchan.) She did later apologize. After she heard that I’m in a second marriage, another shadchan asked who my ex-husband is married to and who his siblings are. She also wanted to know who his children were mishadeich with. I found these questions insensitive. Another shadchan put me on the spot and asked me, “Is your son a top learner?” My son may or may not be a top learner, but is that the only thing girls are looking for? Derech Eretz kadmah l’Torah. My son is a boy with beautiful middos, and may he be zoche to make strides in learning. I went many a night crying myself to sleep. Shadchanim, I call out to you. You are doing avodas Hashem and helping Klal Yisroel. When you do so, I ask from the bottom of a broken heart, please be respectful, understanding and courteous. And when a shidduch may prove to be a bit challenging and take up extra time, know you are being a shaliach of Hashem. May you be zoche to have much hatzlacha in your avodas hakodesh! Anonymous

WEEK 3:

A POWERFUL PLACE A number of variables are necessary to create a successful and empowered tefillah. Some of the major areas of focus include: Proper wording of the tefillos, ensuring we say them correctly and with proper pronunciation to tap into the enormous power Chazal coded into the words. Focus and attentiveness, both to the meaning of the words we are saying, as well as to Whom we are talking, turn our tefillos into a true conversation with Him. Investing emotion and true feeling into what we are saying — with the understanding that a true tefillah is described as avodah shebalev, serving and connecting to Hakadosh Baruch Hu from the heart — means we are not merely mouthing words. Then there are factors that deal with our surroundings: a location free of distractions; being among others who are serious about tefillah, thereby adding an aura of significance and consequence to the tefillos at hand; being part of a minyan, thereby turning a personal matter into a group effort, adding exponential strength to the tefillos of all involved. Yet another factor with the potential to greatly boost the efficacy of each of our tefillos is that of location. Where we choose to stand can have a tremendous impact. Why is this so? Simply put, tefillah is not about asking Hakadosh Baruch Hu to help us out with the various things we would like to have. He has no direct need for us to come to Him and ask for anything, and is more than capable of providing whatever we need — be it in matters of health, financials, personal matters or other — long before we ask. He loves us tremendously, and certainly wishes to give to us. Why do we

have a need for tefillah? Hakadosh Baruch Hu put us in this world with the task to search for Him until we can see Him clearly in all aspects of our daily lives. The concept of tefillah, then, is quite logical. By withholding certain things until we request them, Hashem forces us to come to terms with the One Who is in control of these things. It’s a simple method to get us to appreciate Who is really providing all our needs. To this end, the wording of the main body of Shemoneh Esrei generally follows a consistent pattern: Please provide us with health — because You are the One in charge of health. Please provide us with financial security — because You are truly in control of all finance. Essentially, we are articulating this realization. Please provide me with health, because I get it. I understand. I recognize that it’s You, and only You, who can help me. If we get the message, and fulfill the objective of tefillah, we are, in turn, deserving of our tefillos being answered and receiving all that He really wants to give us. In other words: We don’t connect to Hakadosh Baruch Hu in order to get what we need; on the contrary, the reason we have needs is so that we should focus on Him, talk to Him, and connect to Him. That said, it is quite understandable that a place of kedusha provides a far greater ability to connect. Hashem is right here. We’re talking face to face. The greater the level of kedusha, the greater the preexisting potential, as I stand ever closer to Him before I even start my tefillah. What does this mean in a practical sense?

Please provide me with health, because I get it. I understand. I recognize that it’s YOU, AND ONLY YOU, who can help me.

• One should always daven in a beis haknesses, even when it might be more convenient to simply put together a minyan in one’s house, the lobby of a building, or other.[1] • The level of sanctity in a beis midrash, a place dedicated for constant Torah study, ranks even higher than that of a beis

haknesses, and as such, is preferred for tefillah. [It is worth noting that in present-day society, the lines between beis haknesses and beis midrash are somewhat blurred. Many a beis haknesses features numerous shiurim throughout the course of the day, as well as countless people coming in to learn. These dual-function environments likely attain full kedushas beis midrash status]. • The importance, and power, of utilizing a beis midrash or beis haknesses is independent of that of minyan; even if, for whateverreason,aperson4ndshimself davening individually, without a minyan, he should still be davening in a beis haknesses as opposed to his home.[2] It should be noted, though, that this holds true only if both the beis haknesses and non-beis haknesses options are equal — for example, if both locations have a minyan or, alternatively, if both locations currently do not have a minyan. If, however, one if faced with a choice between tefillah b’tzibbur by joining with a minyan in a non-beis haknesses

IN SUMMATION: 1. The fact that the beis haknesses is imbued with a tremendously elevated kedusha means not only that there are more rules to heed; it means we have a supercharged atmosphere to boost our ability to connect with Hakadosh Baruch Hu. This is something we must take advantage of, and not daven in non-beis haknesses settings. 2. A beis midrash carries more kedusha than a beis haknesses. Both a beis haknesses and a beis midrash maintain theiradvantageevenwhenthealternatelocationavailablehasalargercrowd b’rov am and hadras thebene4tof melech.”

setting, or opting for tefillah in a beis haknesses without a minyan, one should join the minyan and not miss out on tefillah b’tzibbur. • A general concept regarding the performance of many mitzvos, among them the mitzvah of tefillah,is, b’rov am hadras melech” (Mishlei 14:28) — meaning that the performance of the mitzvah becomes enhanced and beauti4edwhendonewithacrowd.The larger the crowd, the greater the glory. This concept has additional meaning when it comes to engagement in Torah and tefillah. Hakadosh Baruch Hu presents Himself in places where He is sought. The greater the size of the crowd involved, the greater the manifestation of Shechinah present. As such, when a person has a choice between two places of tefillah, precedence should be given to the beis haknesses with a larger crowd, provided both are equally conducive to a proper tefillah.[3]

When the concepts of kedushas hamakom (sanctity of location) and b’rov am (size of crowd) conflict, the sanctity of location is the more potent factor and carries greater weight. Thus, if one has the option of tefillah with a large crowd in the lobby of an office building, or tefillah in a beis haknesses with exactly a minyan, one should daven in the beis haknesses. Similarly, when presented with a choice between a beis midrash and a beis haknesses, one should opt for the beis midrash even if a larger crowd is present in the beis haknesses.

AFTER MILLIONS IN COMBINED SAVINGS FOR LOCAL FAMILIES, THE CHASUNAH MALL IN MONSEY’S URBAN SQUARE HELPS SAVVY BUDGETERS SLASH EXPENSES EVEN FURTHER WITH ITS ONE-OF-A-KIND “BUDGET PLAN.” 108 / THE BORO PARK VIEW

In our divided world, few ideas are agreed upon as universally as the need to reduce wedding expenses. There are no defenders of the status quo and few who stubbornly insist that costs must remain high. Still, real progress has been slow for a number of reasons. While others talked the talk, Yoel Goldstein decided to put his money where everyone’s mouth is. He wanted to do something that would help thousands of mechutanim and simultaneously lower baseline expenses throughout the community. After lots of effort and significant investment, Mr. Goldstein opened the Chasunah Mall, a one-stop-shop to provide a package including gifts, furniture for dining room, bedroom, dinette and kitchen, along with housewares, linen sets, everyday items and more. Many new business ventures come with the difficult task of establishing a positive brand identity. They want one that is considered prestigious and associated with class. When launching a project like this, the job is so much harder. If parents would feel like they were settling for a cheap, second-rate experience, the Chasunah Mall would have failed in its essential mission. This is where Mr. Goldstein’s two decades in the furniture industry came in handy, as he called on his network of connections and personally traveled to Italy multiple times to ensure that his items are of the highest quality. On a recent afternoon visit to the Chasunah Mall’s beautiful location in Urban Square on Main

Street, mothers and kallahs could be seen browsing the striking selections — selections that could have been on display in the most high-end establishments. This is by design: chasan, kallah and parents feel like they’re selecting from and buying only the very best — and they’re right. A number of factors help keep prices low while quality remains high. The most obvious is, of course, the economy of scale. Manufacturers and wholesalers accommodate the pricing needs of Chasunah Mall clients because of their collective buying power. Mr. Goldstein’s industry experience is another major factor and helps shoppers get the most bang for their buck. Perhaps most importantly, the Chasunah Mall is more than a business, and its owners do whatever it takes to help families marry off within their means.

GETTING SMART WITH THE BUDGET PLAN

The success of the Chasunah Mall has led to calls for further reductions and savings. Recently, a new package called the “budget plan” has been unveiled that saves a further $3,500 to $4,000 per side. No, they haven’t raised the price of the standard package so that this just seems like a saving, and neither have they compromised on quality. Instead, the Chasunah Mall devised a plan that can further reduce costs by cutting out what might be unnecessary to some and offering fewer options, which means more stock moved and better prices. This new package comes at a time when there has been a great communal awakening to the scourge of excessive wedding costs. Mr. Goldstein makes sure to point out that if someone wishes to remove any number of items from their package, they will be credited on their invoice for nearly the entire amount of that item. Further-

THE BORO PARK VIEW / 109

In a nutshell: the goal is that nobody should pay for things other people want in their package! more, if someone chooses to add an item not included, they can do so for an affordable price. In a nutshell: the goal is that nobody should pay for things other people want in their package!

A MIDDLE-CLASS MOVEMENT

One of the many hindrances to real change in this area is the peer pressure to fit in and be considered balabatish — for the other side, potential future mechutanim, and even for the family themselves. The management and staff at the Chasunah Mall make it clear that they are middle-class folks who think and shop just like their fellow customers. The helpful salesladies in the showroom are mothers who are marrying off children as well, and this is evident in their affability and understanding of their shoppers’ needs. Customer service is a highlight of the shopping experience. One firsttime mother of the kallah said that

110 / THE BORO PARK VIEW

she felt like she had a personal shopper at her side during this hectic and unfamiliar time. Everyone’s definition of middle class, and what is expected of them, is different. Often, a business establishes a basic package with the implicit understanding that they will try and push additional features, options and upgrades on buyers. The Chasunah Mall is determined not to operate this way. They are happy to accommodate additional requests, but the goal is to keep prices low and not push upgrades on unsuspecting parents. Quality is another factor that sets the Mall apart from others. Frequently, parents mention that they brought their furniture many years ago and they’ve come to value durability, which is what brings them to the Chasunah Mall. Its management has installed a sophisticated system where selected items are uploaded, ordered and tracked. They hope to soon roll out a customer portal where shoppers follow the progress of their order. In every way except the final price tag, this is a high-end establishment and a convenient one-stop-shop for families during their time of simcha. As the quip goes, “What’s the difference between theory and practice? In theory, nothing.” While many engage in long, theoretical conversations about solutions, the Chasunah Mall is changing the rules of the game and implementing critical change — one wedding package at a time.

Rising Infection Rates Have Hatzolah and NYC Calling on Jewish Community to Amp up COVID-19 Efforts Upticks in coronavirus cases in Boro Park, Williamsburg, Flatbush, Midwood, Far Rockaway and Kew Gardens have the city doubling down its community outreach efforts in an effort to bring numbers back down to more tolerable levels. Speaking at multiple press conferences last week, Mayor Bill de Blasio said that the city is working closely with key community figures and organizations to get the message out, emphasizing the importance of four proven methods for keeping the virus at bay: wearing masks, social distancing, hand-washing, and staying home when sick. Both the mayor and Department of Health and Mental Hygiene Commissioner Dave Chokshi noted that the techniques have worked previously when rates began rising in Sunset Park, Ozone Park, and the Bronx neighborhoods of Tremont and the Soundview and also stressed the importance of increased testing, contact tracing and community outreach. “This is such an important message,” said de Blasio. “Let’s do the basics. Let’s make sure we do not let this disease in the back door here in this city, because we’ve come so far and we’ve fought so well against it.” The mayor’s words were echoed in a pre-Yom Kippur advisory issued by Chevra Hatzolah, which spoke of “a recent alarming increase in severity and hospitalizations — including ICU admissions” in COVID-19 patients. Warning that the coronavirus can be deadly, Hatzolah advised community members to wear masks covering both their mouths and noses where strict social distancing is impossible, following social distancing guidelines, avoiding large gatherings, and staying home when not feeling well. With one out of every confirmed coronavirus case in the city being a resident of one of the six areas that are seeing spikes in infection rates, de Blasio said that both the NYPD and sheriff’s office would be stepping up enforcement and that he was prepared to do “whatever it takes” to prevent numbers from climbing further. The mayor and New York City’s Health + Hospitals CEO and President Dr. Mitchell Katz warned that urgent action was needed to prevent another lockdown that could close down businesses and other institutions in the affected areas. Three yeshivos were ordered temporarily closed by the city over a period of a week because of increased coronavirus rates. Dr. Katz, who grew up davening in shuls in the Ocean Parkway area, emphasized the importance of avoiding large indoor gatherings despite the inherent difficulties and said that while he would be willing to daven indoors

over Sukkos if he were in one of the affected communities, he would only do so in a mask, sitting next to only immediate family members. “We’re not asking that people not celebrate the holiday,” said Dr. Katz. “We’re asking that people wear masks, and we’re asking that people be socially distant.” Dr. Katz noted that his father-in-law had died of COVID-19 just days earlier in Israel, and the levayah was attended by just a handful of people because of the ongoing restrictions. “These things are extremely hard, but they’re what’s necessary for us to get through COVID,” explained Dr. Katz, adding, “I spoke to my mother-in-law this morning. She can’t even be with her own other son because of the lockdown.” The city has been issuing reminders in affected neighborhoods via robocalls and WhatsApp messages, and in addition to working closely with shuls and yeshivos, it is distributing masks, gloves and hand sanitizer. Highlighting the efforts of the city’s youngest residents during the pandemic, the mayor said that he has seen children in some areas rising to the occasion, diligently wearing their masks, despite the predictions of naysayers. “They have done an amazing job with the masks,” said the mayor, adding, “We need this for the whole family. We need everyone wearing those masks. It makes a world of difference. So, let’s get the word out and let’s work together to fight back this disease as we have done so successfully.”

Easing Visitation Policies, State Slashes Nursing Home Wait Times While coronavirus rates are up in the state’s Jewish communities, things have been improving in other parts of the

state, prompting New York State Health Commissioner Dr. Howard Zucker to update existing guidance on nursing home visitations. Under the revised guidelines, limited visitations are now allowed at facilities that have been COVID-free for fourteen days, a sharp drop from earlier guidelines that mandated a 28-day waiting period. Under the new policy, which went into effect on September 17, only two visitors ages eighteen and up would be allowed per resident at any one time, both of whom must be symptomfree and present a negative verified COVID-19 test result from within the past seven days. Temperature checks, masks and social distancing are all required, and the total number of visitors to any facility at any one time cannot exceed 10% of the total number of residents. Dr. Zucker said that the state will continue monitoring nursing homes to ensure that the new policy does not lead to a rise in coronavirus cases. “We understand how trying it has been for New Yorkers to not see their loved ones and the challenges they’ve had to endure during this unprecedented pandemic,” said Dr. Zucker. “The number of nursing homes that have taken the necessary steps to protect residents from the asymptomatic spread of COVID-19 while working to reopen to outside visitors, shows that adhering to the DOH visitation guideline is the smart and cautious approach to allowing visitations.”

Shopping Bag Ban To Return Post-Sukkos The ban on single-use shopping bags that took effect on March 1 but was temporarily halted by a lawsuit last spring will return on October 19, according to the Department of Environmental Conservation. An Albany Supreme Court judge ruled last month against a Long Island–based plastics manufacturer that filed a lawsuit in the hope to overturn the ban, giving the state the ability to reinstate the prohibition on single-use plastic bags after providing businesses with 30 days’ notice. The ban is scheduled to go into effect on October 19, and according to the New York Post, first-time infractions will not result in a fine, but those who are found in violation can expect to pay $250 for a second offense and $500 if they fail to comply a third time. As in its earlier iteration, the ban will not apply to certain plastic bags, including produce and deli bags, pharmacy bags, takeout bags and dry cleaners bags. In a nod to the pandemic — which has had had some stores advising customers that they would have to bag their items on their own if they brought reusable bags from home to protect cashiers’ safety — DEC Commissioner Basil Steggos noted in a statement that shoppers should use “common sense precautions to keep reusable bags clean.”

Recap: Blumi calls Elisheva to find out how the yad got to her. She inquires whether Elisheva has a son who learns mishnayos for niftarim at night. Elisheva answers in the negative, and although the two are happy that Blumi has found her father’s yad, the mystery still remains — until Miri tells her mother that one of her sons does, in fact, spend nights learning for niftarim. “Tomorrow, Tatty’s going to take us to the sofer, where we’ll get to see the almostfinished sefer Torah,” seven-year-old Yitzy informed his brother, who had come home from yeshivah for Shabbos. “Do you want to come along?” “I’ll see it at the hachnasas sefer Torah, b’ezras Hashem.” Binyamin smiled and parked his suitcase near one of the beds in the large boys’ room. It was the first time he was coming home for Shabbos after the final room arrangements with the new furniture had been made. “You’ll sleep with Shuey, Meir and Yitzy,” his mother had told him a few minutes earlier when he walked in. “Put your things in the second room — the big one — and then come back here to have a drink.” Her voice was a bit loaded, and he looked at her quizzically. Then he went to put his things down. “This is the room with the most kids!” Yitzy explained to him proudly. “We’re four. Mommy gave the little kids a different room. And the girls got the really tiny rooms — Riki and Devoiry in one room, and Esty and Chani in another. Poor girls. It’s so boring to be with just two people in the room.” While Yitzy was talking, Meir, the older of the two, stood there and gazed at Binyamin.

Binyamin stared back. “Is everything okay, Meir?” he asked. “Yes. Just that Mommy said that if you don’t want to sleep in the room with us because it’s too crowded, then she’ll give you the last room, near the one that will be Zeidy’s. It’s empty now; we just dump stuff in there.” “Nu?” Binyamin asked. “So, do you want to move to that room?” Meir’s lips protruded in a pout; he already seemed offended. “No,” his eighteen-year-old brother said. “I’m sure I’ll enjoy it here with you very much.” “And it’s not too crowded for you?” Shloimy, who suddenly burst into the room, asked. Binyamin chuckled. “If we all slept together in the old dining room, and it was just fine, why should it suddenly be crowded for me now?” “I heard a neighbor here telling someone that she heard that before we moved, we had a ‘miserably tiny house.’” Shloimy rubbed his chin. “I’m not sure what that means, but I know what ‘tiny’ is, and I know what ‘miserable’ is, right?” “Right,” Binyamin affirmed. “I overheard it as I was approaching the fifth floor, so when I got to the top of the

September 30, 2020 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / 123 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

stairs, I went over to her and said that we actually had a very big dining room, and we weren’t miserable at all.” “Hmmm!” Binyamin responded. “She was probably very surprised to hear you saying that.” “She was a little confused,” the little boy admitted. “So was the other neighbor. But then she said she was very happy to hear. And her face got redder and redder, and she opened the door that said… well, it doesn’t matter which name it said on their door, because it’s lashon hara. And she went inside quickly. But right we weren’t miserable, Binyamin?” “Of course not.” “Tatty says that money is not what makes people happy,” fourteen-year-old Shuey said. Until now he’d been sitting on his bed with his nose in a book. “But if you can buy things with money, then you get happy,” Meir said. “No,” Binyamin said. “That’s not true.” “Why not?” Meir asked. “Because it’s not true,” Binyamin repeated. “Tatty said that if you answer ‘because,’ it means you don’t have an answer,” Meir said triumphantly. “It’s not that there is no answer,” Shuey argued back, siding with Binyamin. “It’s just something you’ll only understand when you grow up.” “That’s worse than no answer,” Meir grumbled. “And I think that if I would have money to buy all sorts of things, I would be happy.” “I have money,” Binyamin said, without thinking, “and that doesn’t make me happy.” “Because it’s not really money,” Meir scoffed. “It’s just coupons for seforim. I saw what you get from yeshivas bein hazmanim and all that.” “No, we get a little bit of real money for tests. I also have some other money,” Binyamin said, not sure what he was trying to prove or why he was trying so hard. “I have almost fifteen hundred

124 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 30, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

shekels. Believe me, Meir, that it doesn’t make me particularly happy.” And it was not only because he had hoped to save up a larger sum of money before going back to that building to look for the owners of the envelope — and to hear how much money had been in there. Elisheva leaned on the door of the room. “There’s cake and coffee waiting for you, Binyamin,” she called, smiling at him. Was he only imagining that she was blinking faster than usual? He followed her to the kitchen and sat down at the table, which was covered with a white tablecloth. Everything was gleaming, and the aroma of Friday lunch wafted from the stovetop. “I overheard what you told the boys,” his mother said, sit-

“The silver yad was in the envelope?! And it had been in the house the entire time?” He didn’t touch his cup of coffee. ting down across from him and pushing a small plate with a slice of cake toward him. “Nearly fifteen hundred shekels is a nice sum of money. Can you make that much from learning mishnayos at night?” He raised his head from his cup and studied her; her face was expressionless, or rather, was an attempt to look expressionless. “It only happened a few times,” he said in a restrained tone. She lowered her eyes to the tablecloth, as though there was nothing more interesting going on right now than the white lace design. After a long moment, she raised her eyes. “Perhaps we’ll talk about that another time. But Mrs. Hartstein feels terrible about the whole story.”

“Mrs. Hartstein?” “The woman from the silver yad.” “The silver yad?” “That we found under the fridge.” “Huh? What does that have to do with the mishnayos that I went to learn?” You mean, with the money that you went to earn, she wanted to say. Instead, she answered, “That’s what was in the envelope that Mrs. Hartstein gave you.” “The silver yad was in the envelope?! And it had been in the house the entire time?” He didn’t touch his cup of coffee. “In the house? I was sure it had fallen out in yeshivah or on the street, and that someone had found it while cleaning up and had taken it!” “Well, no, it was in our old house.” “But how did it get under the fridge? I’m sure that I didn’t take it out of my jacket as long as I was in the house, and my jacket wasn’t in the kitchen at all. It was the day I had the flu, remember?” His tone was apologetic and confused all at once. “You know how the little ones like to play with your jacket, Binyamin. They must have taken it to the kitchen. I need to ask whoever it was that found the yad — Bentzy, I think — how it got out of the envelope.” “The envelope probably tore.” He stood up, then sat back down. “Come on, eat,” his mother said. “Yes…” He made a bracha and tasted a few crumbs. “The question is why you didn’t go back to Mrs. Hartstein. She gave you something to watch, that something disappeared, and you don’t go to ask what it was? To apologize? To speak to them about what to do next?” “I wanted to save up some money before going back there, so I should have what to repay her with... You know, Mommy, according to halacha I was a shomer chinam, which means that in

September 30, 2020 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / 125 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

case what I was watching got lost, I would be exempt from paying it back. But I would have had to pay anyway, because in order to be exempt I would need to make a shvuah.” “You don’t need to pay or make a shvuah now,” his mother said, and some of her trademark warmth and softness returned to her voice and movements. “The yad was found. But you can’t disappear from someone like that, Binyamin,” she added quietly. “It’s not the way to do things. Why didn’t you come to me about it?” “How could I have done that?” He swallowed. “Was I supposed to have burdened you and Tatty with this problem, too?” *****

Bratislava, 5708/1948 “Which hand do you choose?” Janek Cohen asked. Ulush raised a pair of surprised eyes to him. Surah had cried all night, and only at dawn had Ulush reached the conclusion that it was not hunger (the baby had pushed away the bottle), and not the cold (there was enough wood in the oven, and the small blanket was heavy enough), and it wasn’t thirst or fever. It was her mother’s mood, which undoubtedly was having an effect on the ten-month-old tot. This loneliness, the isolation that felt even worse among millions of people, was intolerable. Janek’s cousin had turned out to be very kind when they’d come to New York seven months earlier, exhausted from their journey. He had hosted them in his home for a week and a half, but his wife had begun to show signs of irritation, which only mounted as time went on. One afternoon, Ulush had gotten up, packed their two suitcases, and asked Janek to go and find them a room to rent. He understood her. What was there for her to look for in this city? She had only Janek and Surah. Not a single person from Slovakia lived anywhere near them. When she went out on the street,

126 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 30, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

she didn’t know a soul — and no one knew her. “Which hand?” Janek repeated patiently. “Right,” Ulush chose. “A letter.” Her husband smiled. “You chose a letter from Edo.” “Edo sent another letter? How lovely! I love reading what he writes!” She took the envelope and turned it over, slowly reading the Hebrew words on the side of the sender. Suddenly she noticed that Janek was still standing in front of her, his left hand behind his back and a mischievous spark in his eyes. “You didn’t tell me I could choose another hand, too,” she said, smiling. “Try.” “Okay, so… left.” He ceremoniously handed over another envelope. “A letter from… Gustav?” she asked in shock. “Yes. Two letters came at once. Read it; I’ll hold Surah.” She opened Edo’s envelope, and out of the corner of her eyes, she noticed her baby giggling in Janek’s arms. Her eyes scanned the lines, and a smile slowly spread across her face. “Sweet,” she said, when she finished reading it. Her eyes glistened. “I would bring him here to us, if I could. He writes so nicely, thanking us again as if it’s the first letter he’s sending. Oy, if I would have money, I’d buy him a ticket to come to us right away; I see that he’s lonely there in Eretz Yisroel.” “And what does Gustav say? Where was he sent from the ship?” She put down one envelope and picked up the other. “He’s also so alone there…” she said with a sigh, a few minutes later. “They sent him to an orphanage in Yerushalayim. But he has a nice counselor.” She perused the letter. “He was disappointed that Edo wasn’t there, because he wants to meet up with him. Maybe we can try and arrange something from here, get them to be placed together? Why is each one alone?” To be continued...

Focus on the Issues: Health Care THE PULSE: As Election Day nears, this column will provide an in-depth analysis of campaign issues. Health care is a central focus of the 2020 campaign. In 2020 Democrats are seeking to defend Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act and to build upon it. The Trump administration aims to have the Supreme Court repeal the act and has promised to replace it with something better. The current fight over the next Supreme Court nominee adds to the health care debate’s fervor, as the next nominee may be the pivotal vote in deciding if the law stands or falls. This article will provide some background and context over the current debate. ACA/OBAMACARE: The Affordable Care Act was signed into law by President Obama in 2010. Many of its provisions went into effect in 2014. The law focused on expanding coverage to uninsured Americans, and it sought to guarantee that all insurance plans provided adequate coverage for adverse medical effects. The law mandated that children be allowed to stay on their parent’s health plan until age 26. It banned lifetime maximums and stopped insurance companies from denying coverage based on an individual’s preexisting medical conditions. The law also revolutionized the individual market for health insurance, as it set up insurance marketplaces where individuals could purchase coverage based on their needs. The marketplace also offered subsidies for lower- and middle-income Americans to buy insurance, and it provided cost-sharing reductions to help cover copays on mid-level plans. The

132 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 30, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

law also mandated that all health insurance policies cover ten essential health benefits. To ensure that people would not wait until they are sick to purchase insurance, the law included an individual mandate that required individuals to buy insurance or be penalized by the IRS at tax time. The law also required that employers with over 50 full employees provide insurance to their workers or be assessed an additional tax. REPUBLICAN OPPOSITION: Republicans opposed the ACA for several reasons. The mandated essential health benefits and the removal of lifetime maximums caused premiums to rise and made insurance more expensive for those not eligible for subsidies. The subsidies provided to low- and middle-income families caused new government expenditures, and the new outlays required that new taxes be placed on top-tier health plans and medical devices. Lastly, many Republicans believed that the individual mandate was unconstitutional government overreach. They argued that the federal government does not have the power to force people to purchase a product that they do not want to buy. Ironically the individual mandate was first proposed by the Conservative Heritage Foundation, and much of the ACA was modeled on the health care reforms that Mitt Romney instituted as Republican governor of Massachusetts. NATIONAL FEDERATION OF INDEPENDENT BUSINESS V. SEBELIUS: In this landmark case, the

Supreme Court upheld the individual mandate on the basis that it was a tax and was, therefore, a legitimate exercise of Congress’s taxing power. In May 2017, the Republican-controlled Congress passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 that essentially repealed the mandate by reducing the tax fine for failure to purchase insurance to zero. CALIFORNIA V. TEXAS: Texas and nineteen other

states filed suit arguing that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which eliminated the fine for failure to purchase insurance, should cause the entire ACA law to fall. Since there is no longer a fine associated with the mandate, it could no longer be considered a tax. As such, the constitutional basis found for the law in The National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius was no longer valid. Therefore, the entire law must fall. In December 2018, District Court Judge Reed O’Connor found in favor of the plaintiffs, and the case is now in the Supreme Court’s docket. PRESIDENT TRUMP: The president has issued ex-

ecutive orders to lower the costs of health care. He has mandated price transparency to bring down prescription drugs costs and shield patients from unexpected medical bills. Trump has also rolled back some of the essential benefits requirements of the ACA. This has al-

lowed insurers to market cheaper plans that offer less comprehensive coverage. The benefit of such plans is that the premium is more affordable. The drawback is that the person purchasing the plan may not be aware of the risk he assumes by forgoing ACA-mandated protection. The Trump administration is backing the plaintiffs in California v. Texas and is advocating for the court to strike down the entire ACA. President Trump has promised to replace the law with something better. He has vowed to protect those with preexisting conditions. In July, President Trump told Fox’s Chris Wallace that he would unveil his new health plan within two weeks. As of mid-September, the president has not revealed any replacement for the ACA. Furthermore, it is highly unlikely that the president could get a bill passed in a divided Congress. The president’s only option would be to issue executive orders on health care. These would likely be struck down as unconstitutional as legislating is the domain of Congress and not the executive branch. There is a real fear that if the law were to fall, it could lead to thousands of Americans losing their insurance and would leave those with preexisting conditions unable to purchase protection. JOE BIDEN: Joe Biden is a strong supporter of the Af-

fordable Care Act. He believes that while the law is beneficial, improvements to the law need to be made. He has committed to working with Congress to fix the problems and improve Obamacare. Many progressive Democrats, such as Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, advocate for a more radical approach and are pushing the idea of Medicaid for All, where the government would run the entire health care system. Government-backed socialized medicine is the norm in many Western countries such as Canada, England and Israel but remains highly unpopular in the United States. Joe Biden is opposed to Medicaid for All due to its exorbitant price tag and has promised to veto any attempt to pass it. Kamala Harris has expressed support for a more limited version of Medicaid for All that would allow Americans to purchase private or government-backed Medicaid plans. THE IMPACT: Opposition to the ACA helped power

Republicans to congressional victories in the 2010 midterm elections. However, support for Obamacare has grown over time, as many Americans have benefited from its provisions. Furthermore, Republicans failed to produce a viable alternative when they had complete control of the government from 2016 to 2018. Democrats believe that they have the upper hand on health care issues and will seek to frame the upcoming battle over the next Supreme Court Justice as a battle for Obamacare’s survival. President Trump will likely attempt to undercut Democratic talking points by issuing executive actions and unveiling his policies to address Americans’ health care concerns.

Taste of the Sea On Shabbos the fish I prepare is usually basic, cooked in water with onions and carrots. Come yom tov, I like to prepare a variety of fish dishes with a different twist to enhance each seudah. No one skips this first course!

AS THE YOM TOV SEASON DRAWS TO A CLOSE, WE GATHER FOR A SPECIAL PRAYER FOR RAIN AND PARNASSAH. TEFILLAS GESHEM IS OUR OPPORTUNITY TO MERIT RAIN AND SHINE IN THE YEAR AHEAD. BY: HERSCHEL RUBIN

We live in a world where the primary concern with dry winters is the lack of snow days, and dry summers mostly mean more watering of the garden. Yet throughout nearly all of history, a dry spell was an existential threat to livestock, crops and even humans. So serious was rain, or the lack thereof, that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an entire Maseches Taanis primarily dedicated to the praying, fasting and customs of a winter where rain is delayed. The mishnah teaches us that while mankind is judged on Rosh Hashanah, it is on the days of Sukkos when Hakadosh Baruch Hu passes judgment on water-related matters for the com-

ing year. Chazal explain that this is the reason we take the arbaah minim on Sukkos, as these plants and fruits could not grow without water. This, too, is the impetus for the nisuch hamayim that took place in the Beis Hamikdash every day of Sukkos with much fanfare and festivity — a celebration we still commemorate today with a simchas beis hasho’eivah. It would seem logical, then, to begin mentioning rain in the second bracha of Shemoneh Esrei on the first day of Sukkos, but we wait until Shemini Atzeres to begin saying mashiv haruach umorid hageshem. Why is that? The Gemara explains that rain on Sukkos would be a bad omen, as rain prevents us from sitting in the sukkah and enjoying the yom tov. We wait until it is announced in shul before mussaf of Shemini Atzeres to begin mentioning rain and officially enter winter, or what was called “yemos hagshamim — days of rain.”

MORE THAN WATER Tefillas Geshem is more than a simple prayer for rain. The baal tefillah wears his kittel and the nusach is similar to that of the recent Yamim Nora’im. The davening carries a serious tone, and the women’s section is generally full. On the day

of Shemini Atzeres, when, according to the midrash, Hashem says that He wants to spend another day with us, we gather for one last farewell to the holy days of Tishrei. Water is the essence of life, and this evocative tefilllah touches on many of the greater themes in Yiddishe life. When Moshe Rabbeinu spoke to Klal Yisroel at the end of their wanderings in the desert, he told them, “The land you are entering to take over is not like the land of Egypt ... but from the heaven’s rains you shall drink water.” Simply explained, Egypt was a land with an irrigation system that included the Nile River rising and bringing water to fields and reservoirs, while Eretz Yisroel would mostly rely on rain from above. But there’s also a deeper reading here: The Jewish people will not fool themselves into thinking that the natural world is an autonomous entity; we know that all is from Above and the water we receive has to be earned. Every day in Krias Shema we repeat the promise that if we follow the Torah, we will merit an abundance of rain. Water and rain are the essence of a world that is whole and prosperous, and we understand that the natural world and our moral world are two sides of the same coin. The piyutim of Tefillas Geshem allude to this as large parts of the prose focus on the Geulah and the protection of Klal Yisroel, and not so much on rain in the literal sense. Tefillas Geshem includes a moving piyut that mentions the greatness of our ancestors and the central role that water

played in their lives. Each section is capped by either, “For their sake, do not withhold water,” or “For the sake of their righteousness, grant the gift of flowing water.” The roles that water plays in our national history in a physical and metaphorical sense feature prominently on this special occasion.

AN AUSPICIOUS TEFILLAH The word geshem shares the same root as the word gashmiyus — materialism. Without water, nothing in our material world can exist. When we daven for rain, we are not only davening for an advantageous weather forecast, but for everything we need in our day-to-day lives. Chazal teach us in the name of Rabbi Yochanan that there are three keys that Hakadosh Baruch Hu never leaves in the hand of a messenger, and one of them is the key to rain. The Gemara then adds that others also counted a fourth one: the key to parnassah. As to the question of why Rabbi Yochanan

didn’t mention parnassah, the Gemara’s response is short and succinct: “Rain is parnassah!” The renowned baal mussar Rav Elya Lopian, zt”l, said that the reason Hakadosh Baruch Hu never hands over these keys is so that we are always forced to turn our heads Heavenward with emunah and the realization that we are entirely dependent on Him for our survival. When we daven for geshem, we not only ask for our requests to be heard, but we also proclaim that we attribute everything that happens in our lives and our world to Hakadosh Baruch Hu Himself. This emunah is itself a vehicle for meriting an abundance of brachos and parnassah. The day after Shemini Atzeres we begin reading Parshas Bereishis. The Torah tells us that all the world had already been created by Friday, but the plants had yet to begin growing, as there was no rain and no one to work the fields. Rashi brings a Gemara that explains this pasuk a bit differently: The plants weren’t ready to grow because Adam Harishon had yet to daven for rain! When Adam came and asked his Creator for water, only then was the natural world ready to blossom. As we wrap up this festive month and prepare to get back to work in the long winter ahead, may we merit to see rain and parnassah: As a blessing and not a curse. For life and not for death. For abundance and not for famine.

When we daven for rain, we are not only davening for an advantageous weather forecast, but for everything we need in our day-to-day lives.

IN THE DAYS LEADING UP TO SUKKOS, AMATEUR BUILDERS DESCEND ON LOCAL LUMBERYARDS AND HARDWARE STORES FOR ASSISTANCE WITH THEIR SPECIAL DIY PROJECT.

Every season has its sights, sounds and smells. In addition to the pleasant aromas emanating from the many arbaah minim stands, the pre-Sukkos days are also associated with the distinct lumberyard and hardware store smell: that combination of wood dust, machine oil, new rubber and plastic, as well as the stuff in the aisles you never enter.

Building a sukkah used to be way more improvisational, as families would screw, nail and glue together whatever wood and scrap material they could find to build something resembling a hut, with the requisite two-anda-bit walls. But even today, with prefab sukkahs being the standard, there’s inevitably still a need for an urgent lumberyard run for some electrical, shlock or decoration needs. It’s the busiest season of the year as bachurim, yungerleit and baalei batim in white shirts undertake blue-collar work for this unique mitzvah. We’ve all laughed at the cliche of a clueless customer entering the hardware section to ask for “The thing that goes into the thing and connects to the big thing.” Well, those working the aisles in locals lumberyards probably aren’t laughing as they try to help these once-a-year consumers figure out what they need, and far too often are forced to explain why they actually need a different “thingy” entirely.

Hardware Goes Heimish In the early ’70s, brothers Isaac and Abe Rosenberg bought an existing hardware store and began serving the construction industry as well as individuals with lumber and hardware needs. The business grew and grew, becoming the local industry leader, and today boasts two large retail locations: Certified Lumber in Williamsburg and Boro Park Lumber on New Utrecht Ave. Abe (Avrum Yehuda) Rosenberg always had a knack for construction. As a bachur, he was charged with building the communal sukkah for the projects on Division Avenue, and he had worked in the construction industry before opening his business. In the ’70s, he was the first to streamline the sukkah-building process for individuals when he designed and built the very first panel sukkah. The original version, which was the predominant choice of buyers until recent decades, was a simple panel nailed onto a frame of 2” by 2” wood with horizontal support in the middle. As the world of sukkahs continued to expand and improve, Mr. Rosenberg

was not done yet. He was still looking for that elusive sukkah that would be lightweight, compact, easy to assemble, and durable. Eventually, he designed and filed a patent for the now wildly popular “Lego sukkah” that is a breeze to snap together and whose panels are half-sized, making it a perfect fit for Brooklyn families with little available storage space. So successful has this model been that it is now the only type of sukkah sold by Certified and Boro Park Lumber.

A Season for Everyone The needs of individual sukkah-builders vary, and these stores offer any items customers might look for. The Sukkos season begins months in advance, when the management reviews how the previous year went and which areas need improvement. This commitment to excellence and improvement has helped the Rosenberg family cement their reputation as the premier destination for any and all sukkah-related purchases. This year, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected every industry in some way. This field is no exception, as the price of lumber skyrocketed. The value of lumber as a commodity in future markets first tripled, then dropped sharply to about double its low of April. The reasons for that unexpected volatility are multifold: lumber mills closed or operating at half capacity, tariffs on Canadian lumber, homebound people undertaking construction projects, and more. Yet despite everything going on, we were assured by Yossi Rosenberg, one of the managers in the business operations, that they’re fully stocked this season. Throughout the year, most customers who visit the stores are either professionals involved in construction or at least handy individuals who know what they need. Everything changes in these weeks before yom tov, when amateurs and first-time sukkah builders descend on the stores with unique needs and requests. The staff is trained to be patient and attentive, and overall most customers leave satisfied, even if it took them a bit longer than they had hoped. In preparation for the hectic season, operating hours are extended and more manpower is added to the team. There are so many different types of sukkahs and awnings that it requires lots of expertise to identify what each customer needs and how each customer can best be helped.

Find your compleat wardrobe

Knowledge born of years of experience in the world of sukkahs certainly helps the team with this task. Every new sukkah is in some way custom designed, and the Rosenbergs and their staff do a detailed job in working with the dimensions and requirements at hand. Quite often, a call will come in with a complaint that something was sent wrong and there are missing pieces, but upon sending a crew it usually turns out that the client made a mistake when setting up his new sukkah. Mr. Rosenberg laughs when asked about this. “Look, it comes with the territory. Every business comes with a unique customer experience, and we’re happy to be there for our clients.” When yom tov draws closer, the action rises to another level as people scramble for last-minute purchases. One of the more common items that people find themselves without in these last hours is, ironically enough, s’chach. Some find last year’s s’chach to have gone bad, while others are so busy with erecting the sukkah structure that they fail to realize that they’re missing a halachic roof over their heads. For sellers like Certified and Boro Park Lumber, this creates a difficult balancing act, as they want to have enough for every customer, yet don’t want to be left with a stock of a seasonal item like s’chach that becomes nearly worthless the day Sukkos ends.

* * * Just days after the most spiritual moments of the year, we celebrate a seemingly earthly yom tov that is the Chag Ha’asif — the Harvest Festival. These are days where fasting is replaced by feasting and the somber tones switch to joyous tunes. Perhaps it is fitting, then, that we put on our work gloves and shop in stores dedicated to the physical world and manual labor. While this cannot seem further from the beis midrash, it personifies the spirit of Sukkos, ushering the natural world into our spiritual realm through mitzvos and joy.

This section is dedicated to all sukkah dwellers who have been dreaming all their lives of going sukkah hopping. Now, The Boro Park View has done the hopping for you. We took the annual trip a bit in advance, and contacted some Boro Park and Monsey residents at random who have tour-guided us through the inner workings of their sukkahs. As I hit the keypad with the list of random phone numbers extracted from the Business Directory, I realized something remarkably amazing. No matter how identical most sukkahs appear, every sukkah has a story behind it. Some are more dramatic than others, but somehow each sukkah is uniquely memorable. The Daskalowitz family has an easy-to-assemble sukkah

that they usually build a week before yom tov. Their children made some delightful diamond art mosaics with which to decorate the walls, and the highlight of their sukkah is the branch that hangs majestically from the s’chach and boasts some happy feathered birdies on it. And there’s more: From the branch hang several glass balls showcasing hand-picked flowers inside. The Rottensteins have an inimitably easy sukkah to build. They simply roll down and fasten the heavy fabrics on each side of the porch, and hey, presto! Their sukkah walls are complete. The show-stopping design is of the Kosel Hamaaravi. One of their children says, “You feel like you’re in Yerushalayim”

The bulk of the work involved in sukkah-fying their porch is bringing down the panels and schlepping them back up to where they’re stored in her attic. 168 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 30, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

when they sit in the sukkah. Their sukkah ceremoniously turns into a dormitory at night when approximately twenty (!) people sleep in it. Family H. stores their wooden sukkah panels in the basement. That means heavy-duty schlepping! After Rosh Hashanah, their crew of boys begins the noisy process. The biggest fuss involves the sukkah walls, which are plastered with guitars, violins, and an entire section with violin-themed clocks, a collection of her boys’ Avos U’banim raffles. The G.s’ sukkah, which is bigger than their dining room, is adorned with a beatiful, hand-crafted wooden crown. A.M.G.’s family has four family members with names of the Ushpizin, “plus Imahos,” he says, which are also celebrated. They’ve got some unique decorations: They hang twelve bottles of oil from the s’chach to be used for lighting Chanukah licht and for all the Shabbosim throughout the year. And, dangling among their shivas haminim hangings are a few bottles of beer. Rina Resnik’s sukkah is entirely Eretz Yisroel–themed. Usually, it gets built during the Aseres Yemei Teshuvah by her children, and they take it down a week or two after yom tov. The bulk of the work involved in sukkah-fying their porch is bringing down the panels and schlepping them back up to where they’re stored in her attic. Every year, in the first week of September, Mrs. Knopfler’s son puts up her sukkah and forms their traditional arches with drapes. Then they adorn the walls with an assortment of homemade noi sukkah, adding a new decoration to the collection each year. In the sukkah of Shaina M. Brull, a switch occurs every night when they drag out the tables and arrange the mattresses. Their decorations are kept organized and every wall features a different kind of decor. The focal point is the wall bedecked in her grandmother’s own patterns and floral textures of gorgeous handmade shterens (cut-out stars) crafted with a penknife. Shaina’s sukkah stands one among many. “Be careful,” she warns others, “because everyone can hear what goes on in your ‘house’ on Sukkos.” Yocheved lives on the third floor, and since her porch is just big enough to hang four shirts and accommodate one chair, her sukkah is built two flights down. Every trip down is calculated, and no one makes the trip with empty hands. If you come up to wash, you take along the fish plates, and so on. To avoid too much schlepping she invested in a good, sturdy tray, and uses disposable dishes so the tableware only has to go down and not

back up. It’s the once-a-year occasion when her soup tureen comes out of storage, to be used for serving cholent, soup and more. The greatest benefit is that she doesn’t feel too guilty indulging in all the delicious yom tov food, because the exercise between each course more than makes up for it! It also means that for night seudos, she puts her little ones to sleep on the bed in the sukkah, as they can’t be left alone upstairs. And if the s’chach has a space in between, her kids can peek out their dining room window and catch a glimpse of Totty sleeping down below. C.M.C’s sukkah has recently undergone renovations. It is now big enough to accommodate all their guests, with room for the two to four men who sleep in the sukkah. But they had an unpleasant surprise on that first Sukkos in their newly

renovated sukkah when they discovered that during construction, the vent from the kitchen air conditioner had been angled to blow hot air directly into the sukkah! On Chol Hamoed, they opened the s’chach around the vent and set a makeshift, temporary pipe around it to direct the hot air outside. As is the minhag, Motzei Yom Kippur finds Mr. C. putting up the s’chach and hanging a beautiful chandelier designated just for Sukkos that gets stored from year to year. The Gelb family has a wooden sukkah that, like in many families, gets built by their menfolk. During meals, they raise their voices in song and join with another ten families who build their sukkahs in adjacent backyards, creating a majestic acapella singalong. Come nighttime, the makeover begins. All the tables and chairs get put away, and they bring in two folding beds in addition to the high-riser that serves as a couch by day. The Zimmermans’ wooden sukkah walls are entirely covered in sukkah decorations that last from year to year. The building of the actual sukkah walls takes their tatty and boys not much time at all. It’s the shlock that takes plenty of time, but once the hard work is complete, it is their pride and joy. Measuring just four feet by eight feet, M.P.’s sukkah is relatively tiny. Because of its small size, ladies sit inside a bedroom off the porch. They fold the tables and place a mattress on the benches every night for the four people who sleep in their sukkah. Although E.Z. lives on the sixth floor, her family has a spacious sukkah at 6 feet x 20 feet! All panels and s’chach are stored in their basement six flights below, so if you’re visiting someone in their building between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, you’ll find good company in the elevator, as the Z. family will be occupying it with their sukkah-building equipment! Mrs. Wigder is lucky. This year, for the first time, they will have an awning instead of a tarp for when it rains. Around four or five people usually sleep there at night. Their sukkah is pretty easy to assemble, as three of its walls are part of the house, leaving only one wall to be constructed. “Pretty much like a peninsula,” one observer comments. Roizy Hershkowitz’s sukkah is also pretty small, with room for only one person to sleep inside. Despite its size, they have a real water fountain in their sukkah! The proximity from one sukkah to the neighbors’ is so close, that sometimes when they finish singing one song, they hear one (or more) of their neighbors singing that very song right after them! How’s your sukkah? Remember what’s most important: After all the hard work is done, sit back, thank Hashem, and enjoy a beautiful yom tov in its cozy confines.

During meals, they raise their voices in song and join with another ten families who build their sukkahs in adjacent backyards, creating a majestic acapella singalong. 170 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / September 30, 2020 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

he worst nightmare for a Yiddishe Tatte and Mama is when they get that phone call notifying them that “your child cannot come back to yeshivah, your child doesn’t fit the mold.” The heart comes to a halt, the heart stops! What am I going to do with my child, what is this child’s future? The parent could plead, the parent could cry, the parent could tell the Menahel/Menahales, “I beg you, it’s pikuach nefashos. What is going to be with my child?” Yet, the response is, we understand but we’re sorry. They go from one mosad to the next and the response is identical. How many tears, how many sleepless nights? There is one mosad, a local mosad called Shalsheles Bais Yaakov. The parents hear that maybe there’s some hope. They run down to that building, they knock on the door, the door opens wide, and there you have the Menahel Rabbi Chaim Kugelman and the Menaheles Mrs. Esther Goodstein standing there, greeting them with open arms, looking them straight in the eye. They say look at this child of yours, with full confidence, with siyatta diShmaya this child is going to grow up to be a role model of a bas Yisrael, she is going to be a Yiddishe Mama, you’re going to see much nachas from her b’ezras Hashem. This, Rabbosai, is: Hope! It always bothered me that such a great school, which is a real service for the community, is the only school that is always struggling. Why? The answer is simple: The Satan will not allow the school to succeed, because this school is v’escha l’goy gadol. The Satan realizes that if

these girls go through this school they’re going to be saved. Additionally, many of the kids come from broken homes with no means to pay tuition. Many of our parents are immigrants that would have been sending to public school and aren’t paying much either. Shalsheles never turned away a Yiddishe kind because of lack of funds. This past June I decided to go in for a few minutes during the graduation. I walk in and see a respected Chassidishe couple among a mix of all types. All of a sudden I hear their daughter getting called up to the podium. She starts speaking and says, “I entered this building as a nobody. Rabbi Kugelman, Mrs. Goodstein, you believed in me. Baruch Hashem I’m graduating with flying colors.” Tears started rolling down my cheeks. As much as I had heard till now, seeing it in real life is a different story. I went over afterwards to Rabbi Kugelman to ask him to please tell me more about that girl. It seems she came from a Chassidishe school but was influenced by the wrong group of girls… and since then was rejected by her school. We gave her a chance at Shalsheles, Rabbi Kugelman tells me. The first Friday at our weekly assembly, where the girls sing zemiros with an amazing passion and yearning, as many don’t have it at home, she burst out of the lunchroom sobbing uncontrollably. Mrs. Goodstein followed her out and tried to calm her down, asking her what’s wrong. She cries out, “I have this at home and I threw it away. These girls don’t have it at home and are so excited about Shabbos I can’t handle it. I promise from now on my Shabbos will be different!” Such are the success stories at Shalsheles Bais Yaakov. Please open up your arms, open up your hearts, sponsor a child for a year or at least one month. Before you call the office or write out that check say, “Ribbono shel Olam, in the zechus of my helping out these children and these families, I beg you to protect my children.” In this zechus you should all be zocheh to asach asach Yiddishe nachas from all your children. P.S. If you know a girl who is struggling in her present school and feel she can grow in Shalsheles BY, have her parents call the school 718-436-1122, ext. 1.

I was seven years old and lost. And my little sister Baily was with me, to boot. It wasn’t that anyone had been irresponsible. I was dropped off at the corner and told to run down half a block to my aunt’s house. No big deal, I’d been there a million times before, so like a big girl I took my little sister’s hand and skipped cheerfully down the street to the familiar red brick house, thinking of the swing set Tante Goldy had in her backyard. Today’s the most exciting day ever in my whole entire life, I thought to myself as we came to the house. That Sukkos morning I’d gotten up early so I could finally put on my yom tov dress, and my father came into my room to tell me the earth-shattering news: My mother had had a baby! And not only that, it was a girl — another little sister to play with. She was adorable, my father assured me, and I was in absolute bliss. My happiness lasted as long as I still thought that my aunt was going to answer the door at any moment. But as the seconds and minutes passed and no one seemed to hear me at the door, I slowly began to get worried. My knocking grew frantic. I started banging, twisting the door handle, trying random combinations on the number lock, but nothing seemed to help. I was stuck outside the door, and no amount of willpower in the world could get me in. There was nothing I could do to will the ball of tears back down my throat, and I began to feel like joining my sister, who, seeing my growing anxiety, was crying and whimpering. “Chaya, what are we going to do?” she wailed. I couldn’t answer her, except to try to bang on the door one more time with my red, aching knuckles and, in my mind, command my aunt to answer the door right now! “Here, Baily, let’s knock together,” I said around the tightness in my throat. “One, two, three!” and both of us smashed our little fists into the door. Then we waited hopefully for the sound of footsteps. But that wasn’t forthcoming. Feeling most pitiable and quite abandoned, I looked out into the street. Throngs of men were passing, some still draped in their talleisim, holding tall lulavim and clutching esrog boxes. Women walked by briskly, pushing strollers holding festively clad children. It seemed the whole world was heading home to eat the seudah with their families, and only we were all alone. Did anyone even see us? Desperately, I wished one of the passersby in familiar garb would notice us and our plight. At the same time, I wished I could shrink into the wall and be invisible so no one would see me crying like my four-year-old sister. But what am I supposed to do? I asked myself. I couldn’t go back home; no one was there. I couldn’t go to the hospital, I thought dejectedly, to where my Mommy was with the precious new baby. Maybe, though, the inspiration struck, maybe my aunt had gone to shul. “Baily, maybe we should go to Beis Yechezkel,” I suggested, feeling lighter at the prospect of a so-

lution. “But we can’t cross,” Baily looked up at me accusingly with teary eyes. “Right,” I deflated, wondering if I could break the rules just this once and cross the street on my own. It was too far for me to go alone, though, even if it was only a few blocks away and I’d been there so many times I knew the way all by myself. Now I was truly at a loss. As the strains of zemiros began wafting through the fall air, Baily began sobbing again, and I felt helpless to comfort her. “What’s going on?” a friendly, deep voice asked. A tall man holding a lulav and esrog, with a full beard and long black coat, had stopped at the sight of two little girls crying on a Brooklyn doorstep. I was in a quandary, thrilled that someone had taken notice of us, but knowing that I wasn’t allowed to talk to strangers and feeling a little intimidated and shy. I looked away as Baily held onto me tight. “Can’t get in?” he guessed, putting down his arbaah minim gently against the brick façade and trying his luck at the door. His powerful knocks startled me, and I began hoping that perhaps salvation was in sight. Surely my aunt would hear that! But all was quiet as he strained to listen. Nothing. What to do next? “Umm,” I started in a soft voice, hoping to catch his attention. He turned. “It’s possible that my aunt went to shul. We daven at Beis Yechezkel,” I told him. He had to bend down to catch my words, but once he did his face brightened. “Sure, I know where that shul is! It’s right here!” He gathered his belongings and motioned to us to follow him. I held on to Baily’s hand as we went down the street and dearly hoped not to run into anyone I knew. What if they thought he was my father? And what if, I worried, this man is really a kidnapper and takes us the wrong way? If he does that, I reassured myself, I’ll start yelling and screaming so loud Mommy will hear me all the way to the hospital. But within a few minutes we’d reached the familiar building, and I breathed a mammoth sigh of relief. “Here we are!” our savior pronounced. “You know where to go now, right?” I nodded, the look on my face expressing all the thanks I was too little to say. Even Baily had stopped crying as I led her to the shul, turning back once in gratitude. I scampered confidently through the women’s entrance, heading to where I knew Tante Goldy always davened, relishing her anticipated happy surprise. Today should’ve been the most exciting day of my life, I mused, but it could’ve been the scariest day of my life! It would have been, if not for one Boro Park yungerman who cared enough to stop.

“One, two, three!” and both of us smashed our little fists into the door. Then we waited hopefully for the sound of footsteps.

A drill in one arm and a badly tangled collection of extension cords in the other, my husband treks up to the roof for the third time in ten minutes to tend to his baby, his sukkah’la. He passes the kitchen every time he heads up to fortify the sukkah walls, and each time he does so, all I am thinking is that he should instead be bolstering — or at least retaining — his wife’s sanity. I’m rolling kneidlach when he pokes his head through the door. Again. “Look, Nissy,” he says as he holds up two bags of plastic ties. “I’m going to use these to reinforce the first set I threaded through the holes in

the sukkah boards. It’s pretty durable as is, but I want it to be super sturdy.” His other palm cradles a lightbulb, and for lack of better options, he stuffs some other tools into his mouth. This seems to be a simulation of Project Titanic (sans the I’m-incontrol attitude, apparently!), yet instead of encouraging him to make this sukkah as resilient as possible, I bombard him with objections and doubts.

“Can you explain something to me?” I ask. “Why is our sukkah taking this long to erect? Katz and Rosenwasser started the same time as you did, and their sukkahs are standing proud and tall since yesterday. I understand hiddur mitzvah, but it’s meant to last all of eight days. We’re talking about something temporary, for goodness’ sake! It really is beautiful, but I believe you’ll accomplish more if you leave the sukkah as is and help me finish cooking. You do, after all, want to have what to eat in that mansion you’re building!” “I think,” my husband tells me through a mouthful of screws, “that you have no idea what windy weather they’re predicting.” “And I think,” I tell my husband, who by now has added another screw to his growing collection, “you don’t know of the wind that sneaked into this apartment and evolved into a grand tornado. Can you take a break for a moment and

rescue me from this?” And with this I mean the ruckus in my kitchen. With my three little ones home since a day before Rosh Hashanah, not a single school day marked on the Tishrei calendar to look forward to, and no sign of volunteers willing to run a day camp of sorts, my house resembles the aftermath of a windstorm. In addition to (trying to do the) cooking, I am busy entertaining three bored toddlers who very quickly get tired of crafts and soon turn to activities that involve tinkering with washing machine buttons (restarting a nearly finished load on a two-hour cycle), running all magazines through a human paper shredder, and removing the tips from bobby pins (1,000 in a box!). I don’t know what had gotten into me when I’d nodded my head enthusiastically to a husband who waxed nostalgic about having our own cozy, homey, dreamy, warm sukkah. Our. Own. Then it had sounded trancelike, unreal, like a dream come true. The otherworldly portrayals were even followed by a meek I’ll-help-you-with-the-food promise, which I, Mrs. Manage-It-All, dismissed. But now it sounds like anything but a dream. And I need that help badly. The sound of the drilling and food processor duet is not pleasant. And neither is the sight of chocolate batter smeared on the walls, spice rub all over the floor and too many burned pots to count. And that’s besides for the other half-finished foods, still waiting to be tended to. Then my husband walks in. “Done!” He is all smiles and is holding the drill like a trophy, while I’m holding a spatula like a flyswatter, tensed and ready to strike. “Away until D-Day (Disassemble Day)! Now, Nissy, how can I be of assistance?” His two right hands come to good use, and soon the harmonious catering team burns the midnight oil, finishing the dishes on the menu to perfection. The next day my husband gives us all a grand tour, pointing out his reinforcement techniques to me while the kids each select a prominent place to hang their unfinished noi sukkah (did I mention craft activities bore them?). The following day is Sukkos. Time — and homes, at times — flies! All is cozy and homey and dreamy and warm. And then, as my husband’s predicted, the sky opens its big mouth, takes a deep breath and starts howling. The s’chach rattles, and the walls of

our sukkah shake slightly. If not for the soup tureen in the center of the table, the tablecloth would’ve been a goner. Jingles from the surrounding sukkahs are heard as loose items fall to the floor. The winds go from whistling to violent, and our thin sweaters fail to provide sufficient warmth. My kids are already sleeping by now — one in the stroller and two on chairs — and I drape fuzzy blankets over them. My husband gazes, mesmerized, at how the sukkah walls battle the wind, fighting, struggling, yet prevailing. “Nissy,” he says, “do you still think I overdid it?” I’m about to suggest a tune for the next song when a deafening sound is heard. Pulling my sweater tighter around me, I peek out from the swinging hinged doors as my husband tries to belt out an Ilui Ushpizin that is louder than the noisy winds. Vestiges of the beautiful niggun falter as the winds pick up speed — and with their speed, an entire sukkah. Rosenwasser’s sukkah is in the air, swaying, swaying, doing a little jig, until it finally falls, depleted, in a heap of wooden planks. Talk about express demolition. Reminiscent of the oft-read line of my youth, “Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house in,” Katz’s sukkah is

I don’t know what had gotten into me when I’d nodded my head enthusiastically to a husband who waxed nostalgic about having our own cozy, homey, dreamy, warm sukkah. next in line. Their s’chach does a giant leap and goes over the roof gate (fortunately falling where pedestrians don’t pass). Although Katz is luckier than Rosenwasser, and all they need to part with is their s’chach, they are literally left without a roof over their heads. No amount of huffing and puffing, however, gets our solid sukkah walls to waver. It is now the lone sukkah on the rooftop, dutifully sheltering its inhabitants. And then the door to our almost-brick-built sukkah is opened to invite in the Rosenwassers and Katzes, who are more than glad to come join us. An assortment of plastic chairs is crammed around the wobbly folding table as strains of melody begin to fill the sukkah. This time the combined singing, a chorus of beautiful, heartwarming voices, beats the winds. And when dessert is served, a teensy-weensy bit of my (and my husband’s) hard work pays off as the women admire my culinary skills. So no, it wasn’t exactly “our own” sukkah, after all. It was a shared sukkah where shelter and advice on how to build wind-resistant sukkos were shared in abundance.

WE ARE SO EXCITED about the changes taking place at King David Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation and to finally share our gorgeous renovations with the community. Our focus was on infection control and safety, while still ensuring a comfortable and luxurious environment. In recent months, we have been hard at work, renovating and updating our nursing home and rehabilitation facilities. Additionally, as part of our transformation at King David Center, we are excited to announce the appointment of Rabbi Boruch Goldstein, mora d’asra of K’hal Ner Lemeyah of Marine Park, as the new Rav of our facility. As we enter a new era of service at the King David Center, we look forward not only to caring for the physical

needs of our residents, but for their spiritual needs as well. At the recent hachtarah, we formally welcomed Rabbi Goldstein to the King David Center family. The elegant affair, held in an outdoor tent to ensure safety guidelines, was attended by many of our dedicated corporate leaders and staff. During the catered fleishig meal, Mr. David Schoenblum, administrator of King David Center, spoke about the concept of hischadshus. He explained how, with the appointment of Rabbi Goldstein, we look forward to bringing a new element into the nursing home in time for the new year. Now, both residents as well as their family members will be able to benefit from Rabbi Goldstein’s many years of experience as a knowledgeable, dedicated and compassionate leader, ensuring that everyone’s spiritual needs are properly addressed. Afterwards, Rabbi Goldstein addressed the crowd, emphasizing how we are raising the bar, ensuring that residents truly live each day, no matter how old they are or how physically weak their bodies have become. He elaborated on the mind-body connection, and how caring for the spiritual needs of our residents will impact their physical wellbeing as well. Providing a heimishe atmosphere — a place where Shabbos feels like Shabbos and Yom Tov feels like Yom Tov — will rejuvenate their spirits, impacting their emotional, mental, and physical wellbeing. Under Rabbi Goldstein’s guidance, residents at King David Center will feel that they are in a heimishe setting throughout the year — participating in kapparos in Tishrei, Chanukah candle lighting in Kislev, and Purim festivities in Adar. With daily minyanim, shiurim, and a weekly Shabbos program, they will truly feel that their ruchnius is as important to us as their gashmius. At King David Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation, our goal is to create an environment that feels like a second home to our residents. Now, with our upgraded facilities and our focus on imbuing the center with a heimishe atmosphere, we are confident that our residents will feel the comfort and relaxation that is so important to their overall health. Furthermore, with the visiting guidelines currently in place, we know it’s more important than ever that residents can benefit from the comforting guidance and chizuk that Rabbi Goldstein can provide. Under his leadership, we look forward to seeing our residents thrive both spiritually and physically, as King David Center enters a new phase, bringing our residents an unparalleled level of care, in an atmosphere that is truly reminiscent of home.

You’ve frequented the hardware store one too many times in the past three weeks. At first you were looking for that long, narrow thing to connect the corners, and then it was a flat, sharp, oddly shaped instrument to cut at the right angle. Let’s get familiar with some of the tools that kept you company while your sukkah boards grew into a week-long residence. Tools made it into the headlines at the very beginning of time. Actually, at the very, very beginning. Tongs (similar to pliers) were created on the first Erev Shabbos of Creation (according to some sources, as quoted in Pirkei Avos), since the only way to create a pair of tongs is with the use of another one to bend it into shape. No one seems to remember how all the other nonmechanical tools were invented, mainly because they happened before archeological tools existed. Let’s examine the world of motor-driven tools instead.

The original electric hand drill was invented in Germany in 1895. Twentyone years later, Black & Decker added a pistol grip that made it possible for one person to use the drill without help.

Necessity is the mother of... the jigsaw. A worker in a sewing machine manufacturing plant replaced the needle with a long, thin saw to do a specialized job, and the jigsaw was created! And... the power saw! The inventor of the first portable power saw was looking for a better way to cut sugar canes.

The smallest working power tool is a drill created with a 3D printer. It measures just 2x1x2cm, and operates with a hearing aid battery, motor and micro switch. What’s more, it works!

The world’s largest chainsaw never cut down a single tree since invention. The Gus, which actually made it into the Guinness World Record at 23 feet tall, stands idle at a tourist attraction and is driven with more mechanizing power than has ever been needed.

Measuring 20 feet, 9 inches long, the world’s longest screwdriver is not the most practical tool in your toolbox, mainly because it will not fit inside. Trust me, I know.

Unfortunately, many people confuse the screwdriver for the entire toolbox. If you need to use a pry bar, a nail puller, or an extended arm to test the battery in your fire alarm, get to your toolbox! Misemploying a screwdriver may result in eye or skin injuries from its sharp and pointed tip. Consider yourself warned.

Safety is also extremely important when using nail guns! A nail travels at 1,400 feet per second as it leaves the nail gun — that’s as fast as a bullet! — so yes, extreme caution should be taken.

Stuff You Wish You’d Find In Your Toolbox

At Wilhelm’s Hardware’s separate sukkah center, night hours during this season tend to get the busiest, necessitating a special night staff to handle the additional customers. Many sukkah builders ask for linoleum flooring, though the flooring sold here is nothing like linoleum. It might look similar, but it’s made of fiberglass — which rolls up for easy storage throughout the year. Shopping at Wilhelm’s has its perks! On an Erev Sukkos night, the Wilhelm staff found a tired sukkah builder in a deep slumber on one of their sample folding beds. This definitely serves as a good testimonial for the bed!

SPRAYABLE RUBBER Looking to defy the laws of physics? Try giving sprayable rubber a go. As the name suggests, it comes in a handy spray can. You can use it to seal and waterproof anything you aim it at. Just keep it away from faces! WHITEBOARD PAINT Turn your walls into a canvas, or the world’s largest reminder. Whiteboard paint is an excellent choice for creative types orforthoselookingtoputatwistintheo]ceboardroom. Keep away from permanent markers, or you might be repainting sooner than you’d like.
