AN UNREALISTIC STORY

(Re: The Upsherin That Almost Wasn’t, Issue 82) After reading the story about the mother who forgot her son’s upsherin, I felt compelled to contact you to verify if this story is true. The storyline seems completely unrealistic. Let’s say the mother is actually that absentminded; what about the rest of the world? The siblings?

The grandparents? Every boy who looks to be older than two is always asked by everyone, “Nu, so when is your upsherin?” Was this boy hiding in a closet?

Could such a story actually have happened?

Y.W. THE BORO PARK VIEW RESPONDS: Unfortunately, the story we wrote has in fact occurred some 30 years ago, with some details and facts changed to protect the privacy of the family.

NO EXCUSE GOOD ENOUGH

(Re: The Upsherin That Almost Wasn’t, Issue 82) The story about the forgotten upsherin made my blood boil. I cannot fathom how a mother, as busy and overwhelmed as she is, can forget her own child’s upsherin!

out-of-hand pekelach. Those are totally not important, and not only could, but probably should be skipped. But how can a mother not look forward to the foundation of Yiddishkeit, her yingele’s introduction to the world of Torah? Even if the mother had 25 kids, this is simply inexcusable!

A.N.

OF DREAMS AND NIGHTMARES

(Re: A World of Alef-Beis, Issue 82) Reading about the background of Reb Zishe’s Schmeltzer’s alef-beis tape brought a smile to my face. I remember the time my husband walked into the house with one of the “Middos Velt” CDs when my son was old enough to appreciate it. Tuning into the sounds of his youth, he reminisced about how very frightened he was when the cassette would reach the part where “Shloime’s” parents called for him while he was trapped on a construction site that he shouldn’t have visited. He was so excited to share the experience with our son!

And my memories? Like C.S. Teitelbaum so wonderfully described, I recalled the nightmares the lamed katchke gave me as a kid!

Name Withheld to Protect the Children at Heart

WHAT IS IN HIS NAME

(Re: The History and the Mystery, Issue 78) Thanks for a wonderful read each week. I’m writing in regard to the article you ran about Eliyahu Hanavi. I wanted to clarify what you wrote about why Achav was called by that name. The “ach” part of his name, which when literally translated means brother, does not allude to that in this case.

Rashi (Sanhedrin 102b) translates ach to mean ra la’Shamayim.

Furthermore, in multiple places across Shas, ach is shown to have a negative connotation.

Thanks again for putting out such a heimish publication.

PARSHAS

BEHARBECHUKOSAI Growing Emunah

Parshas Behar begins with Hashem speaking to Moshe Rabbeinu on Har Sinai, relaying the mitzvah of shemittah. Rashi asks: What relevance does shemittah have with Har Sinai? Weren’t all mitzvos given on Har Sinai?

FOR A FARMER, putting aside the sickles and tractors takes courage. More than just his livelihood, the fields are his very life! But when shemittah rolls around, ehrliche farmers across the land take this valiant step.

* * * * * It was after the shemittah year of 5712/1952, and the frum settlement of Komemiyus was in a quandary. They had no wheat with which to sow the field! The only seeds they could find were poor-quality, infested kernels left over from the sixth year.

The legendary rav of the moshav, Rabbi Binyamin Mendelson, zt”l, reached a decision. They would plant these seeds, and Hashem would help. The agriculturists laughed. “What a waste of effort! You’re jeopardizing some 20,000 liras.”

The rains were late that winter. All of the farmers who had tilled their fields in the summer, when it was still shemittah, lost their crop. The soil was too dry. Only in Komemiyus, where the planting began after Sukkos and lasted until the rains finally came, did the wheat grow. Despite the inferior seeds, and

56 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / May 5, 2021 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

despite the ridiculing predictions, the bounty of shemittah triumphed. * * The offer came in 1957. In an effort to cultivate the land, the government was planting orchards in many young settlements.

Komemiyus would be granted trees too, but Rabbi Binyamin Mendelson would accept the gift only on his own terms: The orchards would follow his strict guidance when it came to the halachos of shemittah. When the authorities refused to go ahead, Rabbi Mendelson remained firm, despite the fact that farming the orchard had the potential to support a number of local families and the entire settlement.

Thus, the proposal stalled.

Rabbi Mendelson then repeatedly told them of the importance, greatness and sanctity of shemittah, and finally, about a year later, he prevailed on the director of the project. The trees were planted at the exorbitant expenditure of half a million liras, and shemittah would be observed.

The very next year, 5719/1959, was shemittah. As promised, the orchards were left untended. The project managers repeatedly told Rabbi Mendelson that he was endangering the entire investment, but with a lot of self-talk, Rabbi Mendelson strengthened himself, believing that in the zechus of the mitzvah they would avoid a chillul Hashem.

Toward the end of the month of Av, the project director visited. He said that they had planted twelve orchards in total, and work had continued throughout the year in all fields besides for those in Komemiyus. And wondrously, the crop in Komemiyus surpassed the others by far!

“How can it be?” the director asked.

“It’s simple,” Rabbi Mendelson explained. “We followed the ratzon Hashem, and Hakadosh Baruch Hu made the orchards flourish.”

* * During that same shemittah year, there was a shortage of onions throughout Eretz Yisroel. At that time, an Egyptian ship accidentally ventured into Israeli sea territory. When the sailors realized their mistake, they quickly abandoned the ship and ran off.

Amazingly, the ship was loaded with onions, and there was more than enough for all those who kept shemittah. * * More recently, in the year 5760/2000, there was barely any rain in Eretz Yisroel. Because it was the sixth year of the cycle, there were those who worried that there won’t be enough produce to carry them over through shemittah. Amazingly, the crops that winter were a huge success, with the produce numbering many times more than a typical year — even though there had been no rain. * * 5768/2008 was a shemittah year, and it was the first time a certain kibbutz in northern Eretz Yisroel was keeping shemittah. When an activist from chutz la’aretz met with this farmer, who cultivated a large banana plantation, the farmer was emotional. Just days before, there had been a rare winter frost that left all bananas in the neighboring fields black and ruined. But the bananas in this farm remained unscathed.

“I cannot imagine how anyone does not see Hashem’s hand!” the secular kibbutz farmer exclaimed with tears in his eyes. * * * * * The Chasam Sofer points out that from shemittah we can clearly see that the Torah was given by Hashem on Har Sinai. There was no way a human being could be behind such open, supernatural occurrences that happen without explanation.

We are told not to plow the fields, yet we merit a bounty of produce enough for three years — the years before, during and immediately following shemittah. How could anyone guarantee such bounty?

The only explanation is that this is all coming from Hashem. Only He could make such a promise, and only He could bring it to fruition.

What greater proof is there that the Torah was given by Hashem at Sinai?

Did You Know?

Keren Hashviis was founded in 1980, when Rabbi Binyamin Mendelson encouraged a handful of neighboring farmers to uphold shemittah. The organization has mushroomed since then, hoping to provide financial resources, halachic guidance and moral support to some 4,000 farmers in the upcoming shemittah year.

Keren Hashviis gives Yidden in chutz la’aretz the opportunity to have a share of property in Eretz Yisroel so they, too, can have a part in this special mitzvah.

The upcoming year, 5782, will hopefully be the first time since Churban Bayis Sheini that more than 51% of the agricultural land in Eretz Yisroel will keep shemittah!

CHAPTER 6 RECAP: Shabbesai Tzvi advises Yechiel to heed his father’s request and return to Warsaw to settle down. The Swedish armies invade Western Poland, giving Yechiel the opportunity to return to Smyrna with his wife, where their son Netzach is born.

T

imes were good in Smyrna, and Yechiel’s business prospered. He began to import fine silks and other fabrics from Salonika, a large city in northern Greece whose populace was almost entirely Jewish, many of whom were engaged in every stage of the production and distribution of textiles.

Shortly thereafter, reports reached Smyrna that Shabbesai Tzvi had arrived in Salonika with a large entourage of followers. He had taken up residence in the home of Shlumiel Karidi, one of the elders of the city, and was being received with great honors.

Yechiel was overjoyed. He would travel to Salonika to see Shabbesai Tzvi under the perfectly legitimate guise of purchasing goods for his firm. No explanations to his wife would be required. More as a formality than an actual request, he wrote to Shabbesai Tzvi asking for permission to visit. In the meantime, he began to make preparations for his journey.

Shabbesai Tzvi’s letter came one week before Yechiel was to sail. “My precious child, you must not come

62 / THE BORO PARK VIEW

to Salonika,” wrote Shabbesai Tzvi.

“It is not yet time. Do you think it is for naught that I wandered through Macedonia for such a long time without setting foot in Salonika?

The nitzotzos, the sparks of holiness, scattered throughout Salonika are gripped tightly by the kelipah, the forces of evil. Only after I had gained many new disciples and had grown stronger with the passage of time was I able to enter Salonika. When it’s time for you to come, I shall summon you. I shall be wed in Salonika, and you shall dance at my wedding.

My blessings to you and your family.

Let us pray to the Almighty that your little Netzach grows up in a better world.”

The Master was to be wed! The news stunned Yechiel, and the realization that he had been made privy to what must surely be a well-kept secret flattered him immensely. He put away the letter, resolved to guard the wonderful secret with which he’d been entrusted. He canceled his trip to Salonika without the slightest twinge, content to wait patiently for Shabbesai Tzvi’s summons.

Several weeks later, Smyrna was swept by the sensational news that

Shabbesai Tzvi had married Leah Karidi, the daughter of Shlumiel Karidi, in a lavish and magnificent ceremony. Yechiel was shocked and bitterly disappointed. His dreams of dancing at the wedding had turned to ashes. He despaired of ever seeing the Master again. Why had he had a change of heart and not invited him to the wedding? What had he done to make the Master turn away from him?

The answers to his questions were provided by Gamliel Basnoun who arrived in Smyrna from Salonika just weeks after the wedding. Gamliel had gone home to his wife and children in Yerushalayim after Shabbesai Tzvi’s departure from Smyrna, and Yechiel had not seen him since then. From time to time, Yechiel received letters from him describing his travels to raise money for the poor of the Holy City in the Jewish communities of Tunis and Cairo, as well as other wealthy Jewish communities on the North African coast. Gamliel had turned his attention to the west and south because Europe was at war; Constantinople and Smyrna alone did not justify a northern itinerary. But now that a measure of peace and prosperity was returning to the Jewish communities of Poland, Gamliel Basnoun was heading north again, and he had the good fortune to arrive in Salonika just in time for the wedding.

“I have a message for you,” said

Gamliel as they sat together on the veranda one evening. “I know you’re disappointed that you weren’t at the wedding. The Master said I was to tell you that this was not the wedding at which you were to dance. Those were his exact words.”

Yechiel stared at his guest, unable to speak.

“He also sends his blessings to you and your family,” continued Gamliel. “He mentioned Netzach in particular.”

Yechiel breathed a sigh of relief. The Master was not angry with him. The wedding mentioned in the letter must have been a veiled reference to something altogether different, some deep mystery not yet revealed.

“How I yearn to see the Master again!” exclaimed Yechiel. “How I long to drink the golden words that flow from his holy lips! Tell me, Gamliel, do the people of Salonika realize how fortunate they are to have Shabbesai Tzvi among them? Do they accord him the honor that is his due?”

“Of course. They accord him royal honors, more than to the elders themselves. The Master’s blessings are the most sought-after rewards in Salonika. The touch of his hand is the fulfillment of dreams. Some call him the Prince of Salonika. It is not an inappropriate title.”

“I’m glad,” said Yechiel. He smiled as a new thought struck him.

“And now there is a Princess of Salonika.”

Gamliel squirmed uncomfortably and cleared his throat.

“I have some news from Salonika that is not yet widely known. Do you want to hear it?”

“Don’t tease me, Gamliel. I can’t bear it.”

“Forgive me. I see the Master’s message has had a profound effect on you. Hold on to your chair. The Master is going to divorce Leah Karidi. In fact, he has probably already divorced her by now.”

“What?” exclaimed Yechiel, jumping to his feet.

“It is exactly as I say, Yechiel.”

“What happened?”

Gamliel shrugged. “It’s hard to say. His gracious host, Shlumiel Karidi, offered the Master his daughter’s hand in marriage. She’s a fine girl, and her father is a learned and respected man. The Master consented. But after the wedding he remained secluded in his own rooms, too holy to live an ordinary life with an ordinary wife. In many ways, it seems to be a repeat of his first wedding here in Smyrna some years ago to Rachel. I’m sure you heard of it.”

“Yes, I did. You told me about it yourself.”

“Of course. I remember telling you about it, now that you mention it. Anyway, Shlumiel Karidi had the greatest respect for his new son-in-law, who was obviously a very learned and holy man, but he couldn’t let the situation remain as it was.

Unable to decide on a course of action, he presented his problem to a private meeting of Sa-

Why had the Master had a change of heart and not invited him to the wedding?

What had he done to make the Master turn away from him?

lonika’s elders and asked their advice. The elders listened to his story in wonder and decided to investigate the matter...”

“Go on.”

“Well, it seems that when the head of the rabbinical court in Smyrna heard of the Master’s arrival in Salonika, he wrote to one of its wealthy merchants vilifying the Master and describing in great detail his last days in Smyrna.

This letter was brought to the elders. Further investigation, however, uncovered other letters from prominent people in Smyrna that spoke of the Master in reverent and glowing terms. And indeed, their own observations bore out these other letters. It was decided that Shlumiel Karidi, accompanied by several of the elders, should pay a visit to the Master. Several of the Master’s followers, I among them, were

“Why?”asked Shlumiel, his voice full of anguish. “If you are indeed so holy, and we can all see that you are, why did you marry my daughter in the first place?”

present in the room when the visitors arrived. It was my last night in Salonika...”

“So what happened?” prompted Yechiel.

Gamliel cleared his throat and sat forward in his chair.

“They came into the room with solemn expressions on their faces. The elders remained standing in the back of the room as Shlumiel stepped forward. The Master looked up from the Gemara he was learning with a faraway look in his eyes, as if he had torn himself away from the pastures of Heaven to return to the lower world. Shlumiel trembled under the Master’s holy gaze. “‘What can I do for you, honored father-in-law?’ asked the Master. ‘And what can I do for your honored friends?’

“Shlumiel was unable to speak, so overcome was he with awe. “‘Speak your mind,’ said the Master gently. ‘Don’t be afraid to offend me, for I knew what was in your heart long before you stepped through this door.’

“The words came pouring out of Shlumiel’s mouth in a jumbled torrent. The Master listened in grave silence, nodding from time to time. “‘Don’t be angry with me, honored father-in-law,’ said the Master. ‘My soul adheres to a higher world, and I cannot live as an ordinary man. But fear not. You and your daughter shall be amply rewarded in the end.’ “‘But why? Why?’ asked Shlumiel, his voice full of anguish. ‘If you are indeed so holy, and we can all see that you are, why did you marry my daughter in the first place?’

“The Master looked at Shlumiel for a long time. Then he closed his eyes and spoke in a distant voice. “‘It is a mystery within a mystery. And I can pull away only the very edge of the veil for you. Your daughter Leah is the gilgul, the reincarnated soul, of Batsheva, Queen of Eretz

Yisroel, wife of Dovid, mother of Shlomo. That’s all I can say. Your daughter’s reward will be great. In a few short years, I shall make her Queen of Ophir, the land of gold and precious stones, and she will rule over many peoples. Then she’ll journey with me to the Holy Land and become one of the great prophetesses. Only a few short years, my honored father-in-law. Only a few short years.’

“I saw Shlumiel and the elders exchange glances even as the Master was still speaking. One of the elders brought his fingers to his lips as a sign to the others that they remain silent. He waited till the Master was finished. Then he stepped forward.

“Do not hold it against them. They do not understand. But someday they will.

Someday the whole world will.”

“‘Holy Master,’ said the elder. ‘It’s obvious that you are more of the world of the angels than of our own. Shlumiel Karidi and his daughter Leah have been honored by this marriage. This brief time has been its own reward. But Leah is, after all, an ordinary girl, and her father must think of her future. If it pleases the Master, would he divorce the girl so that she may marry an ordinary man?’

“The Master stared at the elder. He looked into his very soul. The elder flinched but remained standing there. “‘It shall be done,’ said the Master.

“Shlumiel and the elders bowed and left the room. “‘Do not think for one moment, my precious children,’ said the Master when we were alone again, ‘that because my eyes were closed I do not know what passed among our visitors. Do not hold it against them. They do not understand. But someday they will. Someday the whole world will.’

“The following morning I sailed for Smyrna.”

For several long minutes, the two men sat together lost in their own thoughts as they stared out at the throbbing waters of the gulf. The cool evening breeze seemed to carry the echoes of Salonika from across the Aegean Sea. Gamliel was the first to speak.

“You know I shall be leaving soon for Poland, Yechiel.”

“I know. I think you’ll do well there, but not as well as in the old days. It will take many, many years to overcome these years of disaster.”

“No doubt, but it’s rumored that there’s phenomenal wealth in Warsaw,” said Gamliel. “Perhaps you can help the poor of Yerushalayim by providing me with several names and a letter of introduction.”

“I’ll certainly do whatever I can for the people of Yerushalayim,” Yechiel said with a smile of good-natured irony. “Especially if an old friend benefits from it as well.”

“Thank you, my friend. I knew you’d understand.”

Tears and Tehillim as Tragedy Strikes in Meron A night of celebration turned into an unspeakable horror as 45 people were niftar and over 100 were injured in a Lag Ba’omer night stampede in Meron.

The tragic turn of events took place after a midnight hadlakah by the Toldos Aharon Rebbe, when a large number of people attempted to leave the area at the same time by heading down a slick metal ramp that led to a staircase. Police had reportedly blocked off the exit for unknown reasons, and as the number of people in the narrow passageway increased, some began falling, creating what police described as a human avalanche.

Emergency crews on site swung into action, with Magen David Adom, United Hatzalah, Zaka, Israel Police and IDF soldiers working to treat and evacuate the injured and rescue the trapped, their job hampered by the sheer volume of people present. A field hospital was set up in Meron as ambulances and rescue helicopters made their way to the site to transport casualties to nearby hospitals.

As the horror unfolded, confusion

mounted worldwide as news of the disaster spread. Those who had gone to Meron were unable to leave for hours as the single road in and out of the area was reserved for emergency vehicles.

Cell phone service in Meron was severely compromised because of the massive number of phone calls coming into the area, leaving family members spending the night trying to contact their relatives.

The heartbreaking list of niftarim includes ten children — among them two sets of brothers from Yerushalayim — multiple yeshivah bachurim, and kollel avreichim. Among those lost were Monsey residents Shragee Gestetner, a”h, and Yosef Amram Tauber, a”h; Reb Eliezer Tzvi Joseph, a”h, of Kiryas Joel; and Menachem Knoblowitz, a”h, a Boro Park chasan.

While the exact number of people who flocked to Meron remains unclear, Hamodia reported that in the days before Lag Ba’omer, as many as half a million were expected to mark the yahrtzeit of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai at his tzion. With the 2020 celebrations at Meron canceled because of COVID-19 and authorities only recently deciding to open public venues as infection rates continue to fall, there was no question

that the crowds heading north for Lag Ba’omer this year would be large ones.

Despite official declarations that only 10,000 people would be allowed into the Meron compound at one time and that those individuals would need proof of vaccination or COVID-19 recovery, police made it clear before Lag Ba’omer that it would be up to event organizers to enforce those rules.

Israel’s attorney general is launching an official investigation into the tragedy, with accusations and fingerpointing already taking place. While police have been accused of negligence for reportedly closing an exit near the ramp where the stampede took place — allowing tens of thousands into the compound and letting large numbers of people to leave the area at once — others have blamed government officials who permitted an unlimited number of people to attend the event.

The potential dangers in Meron have been brought to light before, with multiple reports dating as far back as 2008 noting that the area’s size is far too small to accommodate the crowds and that safety concerns were being overlooked, a problem likely stemming from the fact that there is no single agency coordinating the annual celebrations.

‫ויבכו העם‬ ‫בלילה ההוא‬ By: Y. Blooming

“LECHU NERANENAH,” THE BA’AL TEFILLAH BEGINS. IT’S FRIDAY EVENING AND I’M BLANK-STARING AT MY SIDDUR . THE VERSES READ LIKE THOSE HAZY WORDS YOU SEE IN YOUR DREAMS: LET’S SING JOYOUSLY… LET US COME BEFORE HIM WITH THANKS; WITH SONG LET’S SHOUT HIS PRAISE. SINGING? PRAISING? RIGHT NOW? 78 / THE BORO PARK VIEW

The mood in shul was decidedly somber and muted when I arrived. What is there even to say? The gabbai, generally animated during this busy time, has a resigned look on his face as the children run around carelessly. Who’s got the energy now?

IT’S BEEN

a mere 24 hours since our community has experienced one of the greatest calamities in recent generations. Around the world, Yidden have turned moot the question whether grown men cry. The names and faces that have begun trickling out have turned one massive tragedy into dozens of catastrophes — each worthy of its own headlines, mourning period and personal introspection.

Now, just one day later, as families began receiving confirmation of what they’ve so dreadfully feared, as young children learned way too early about the perils of life, and mothers realized they would never kiss their young sons goodbye again, it does not feel right to be singing. Instead, we’re cloaked in a deep mourning that could not be concealed under Shabbos clothes or washed off in the mikvah.

Mikdash melech ihr melucha, kumi tze’ee mitoch ha’hafeicha — sanctuary of the King, royal city, arise, come forth from the upheaval; rav lach sheves b’emek ha’bacha — too long have you dwelt in the valley of weeping; v’hu yachamol alayich chemlah — and He will show you abundant pity.

The words soothe for a moment, but the mind quickly drifts to the fresh almanah, who just two days prior packed her husband’s suitcase for a short trip to Meron. Now she dwells in the valley of weeping, even without the crushing enormity of her difficult road ahead having set in. Perhaps a neighbor is coming by to make Kiddush soon, but Tatty will never walk through that door again humming his favorite Gut Shabbos song.

Her life will never be the same. The traumatized preschooler watching Mommy’s face buried in tissues — her life will never be the same either. The sudden yasom saying his first Kaddish with broken enunciation — his life, too, will never be the same. Lag Ba’omer will never be the same. Will our community ever be the same?

Do we even want it to be?

where his sons Moshe and Dovid lie lifeless before him.

Lag Ba’omer has always been a day of contradictions. It is a yahrtzeit celebrated as a wedding. Tearful tefillos seamlessly mingle with euphoric dancing. Unlike other major days, there is no buildup leading to it.

Instead, the somber sefirah season surrounds it. Even the simultaneously hartzig and lebedig songs of Lag Ba’omer speak to this esoteric enigma.

And at the height of this auspicious day, Klal Yisroel was jolted by the most horrific calamity most of us have ever been exposed to. Just a few hundred feet away, thousands had just begun their festive danc-

His life, too, will never be the same. Lag Ba’omer will never be the same. Will our community ever be the same?

“REB SHIMON,

I brought them to you alive. Return them alive to me!” The gut-wrenching cries of Nachman Elchadad pierce the air at the double funeral

ing in honor of Rabi Shimon. Across the Jewish world, children were preparing for Lag Ba’omer, gathering twigs and honing their archery skills, some of them blissfully unaware that their father or brother was at the moment being crushed under a sea of humanity thousands of miles away.

And at that very moment, those who’d made the pilgrimage to this site of extraordinary yeshuos were subject to death and maiming in the most inexplicable way.

As the news started to spread, none of it made any sense. Packed crowds, a common occurrence, had somehow turned into such a horrifying and incomprehensible disaster.

How can a few minutes of inadequate crowd control lead to decades and generations of pain for so many Yiddishe families? The mind struggles to make sense of it. And the news somehow only got worse.

From reports of injuries, to multiple deaths, to a dozen fatalities, to 20 killed, and in a scope that is still hard to comprehend days later, 45 neshamos taken!

In those moments there was no parent who failed

THE BORO PARK VIEW / 79

to relate to the agony of their fellow father and mother desperately waiting for the phone call from their son.

Every victim looked like our sons, brothers and fathers — people we’d risk our lives for. The names could have been drawn from the local phone book and the photos would pretty much look the same.

The searing pain spared no one. Hatzolah members, who tried to block out all emotions as they treated piles of patients, were inconsolable afterward as they recalled making life-and-death decisions in choosing whom to treat. Bystanders watched helplessly as fellow Yidden drew their last breath under the weight of their fellow innocent brothers. Hardened Zaka members cried audibly as they wrapped bodies that just minutes earlier were vessels for living, breathing Yiddishe kinder.

THE FRUM

community today numbers well over a million people, bli ayin hara. We are bound not only by our way of life and common challenges, but by a shared achrayis to one another as members of one large family.

The Meron tragedy brought to the forefront a vivid reminder that we still see ourselves that way. Life has not been the same the past few days, and none of us can shake the feeling of personal loss — which begs the question: How much are we missing out on by accepting a familial relationship where only tzaros are shared, and happy moments are at best met with indifference and at worst with abject jealousy? If we are so sad when they’re gone, wouldn’t it behoove us to embrace them when they’re with us?

On a more personal level, the empathy we exhibit for mothers and fathers sitting shivah over their sons serves as a poignant wake-up call to cherish the living. We cannot forget that our children are more than mini people that we’ve been burdened with setting straight. Not because life is fragile — although that too is true — but the agony of the void reminds us of how special our bond is and how lucky we are to be blessed with it.

The scope of the worst Yiddishe peacetime disaster we can recall will leave a long-lasting impact. The headlines will move on, but the families never will. No matter how often we check the latest updates or what the investigations turn up, what happened, happened.

All that’s left is to determine our reaction to it. We’ve passed the first test with our empathy and shared tears. But it does not get easier. Not with 45 of our youngest and brightest in freshly dug graves.

Hisna’ari mei’afar kumi — shake the dust off yourself, arise; livshi bigdei sifarteich Ami — dress up in your garments of glory, My people; al yad Ben Yishai beis halachmi — through the son of Yishai the Bethlehemite; karvah el nafshi ge’alah — draw near to My soul and redeem it.

Shaken Action to

By: Ruchy Reese

After 33 days of semi-mourning, we were all eagerly looking forward to Lag Ba’omer. Instead of silence, there would be sound: the crackling of hungry flames, the deep and rhythmic pounding of the bass, and the melodic echoes of “Bar Yochai, nimshachta ashreicha…” Everywhere would be dancing people and smiling faces — Klal Yisroel rejoicing on the day of the broken plague and the reunion of a holy man with his Maker.

BUT THEN THE DAY OF SIMCHA TURNED TO ONE OF SORROW. HUNDREDS OF OUR BELOVED BRETHREN FELL TO THE CRUSH OF HUMANITY, THEIR BODIES BROKEN — SOME SO SEVERELY BATTERED THAT THEY BECAME INCAPABLE OF HOUSING A SOUL. AND NOW KLAL YISROEL IS ACHING, CRYING OUT IN PAIN.

“Lamah?!” we weep. We’re not really asking why, for who can fathom Hakadosh Baruch Hu’s ways? But seeking clarity in the confusion, we do ask for what? Despite the haze of bewilderment, we know that Hashem didn’t leave us to flounder in the darkness without light. We have the Torah and those more learned and wiser than ourselves to consult with. We just have to seek them out.

“What does Hashem want from us?” I tearfully ask the person whose guidance has never led me astray — Rebbetzin Weinberger, daughter of the Skulener Rebbe, zt”l, and wife to the Skulener Dayan, Rabbi Shimon Yoel Weinberger, shlit”a.

Her answer renews my courage and gives me a new perspective, lending me the strength to forge ahead despite the searing pain. With her permission, I am sharing this powerful message.

“You always have to think into these things,” she says.

“We’re observing tragedies that we never have before. It’s not a time of war, yet so many people should die? First from the coronavirus and now from this? The Ribbono Shel Olam is calling for our attention! If something happens in Eretz Yisroel, the message is meant for the entire world.”

And it surely must be an important message, but for so many of us, the path forward may not be clear. Rebbetzin Weinberger’s words offer clarity.

“Before a neshamah comes down to this world, it is handed a specific nisayon,” she tells me. “Nobody is told what theirs is. But the yetzer hara knows what it is, and he tries everything in his power to prevent the neshamah from overcoming its nisayon. He wants to make it hard on the person so that they can’t fulfill their tafkid. He will even distract a person from their tafkid with easy mitzvos. He makes a person think, ‘I’m so good! I’m doing so many good things!’ But everyone has to have a meeting with his yetzer hara and see which mitzvah is very hard for him, see where the yetzer hara is holding him back. In that area lies his tafkid.

“Look into yourselves,” the Rebbetzin says. “Nobody can tell you what to improve in; you know yourself better than anyone else does. The Mishnah says, ‘Eizehu gibor?

Hakovesh es yitzro.’ Yitzro means his inclination. Why does it say ‘his’? Because every person has their own unique yetzer hara.

“The yetzer hara is compared to a fly,” Rebbetzin Weinberger continues. “I push it away from my face, and it goes to another part of my body. This is the nature of the yetzer hara. He will always come back. And right now he’s being so wild! My father, zt”l, used to say that before a person dies, his body shakes because it is trying to hang on to life. The yetzer hara is at that stage; he sees that he’s close to his end, and he’s all over the place. No generation ever had the nisyonos we have now.

“Before a neshamah comes down to this world it is told, ‘Tzei l’milchamah — you’re going to war!’ Think about when there’s a war and there’s a draft,” she tells me. “The army

THE BORO PARK VIEW / 85

comes and grabs people who are tall and strong, sending them to battle. They won’t take drunkards from the street, because they know they’ll be killed immediately. The Ribbono Shel Olam doesn’t either send down weaklings to fight His war. We who are alive today are the really strong neshamos that He chose for this generation with its specific nisyonos. Our grandparents didn’t have the nisyonos that we have today, because they wouldn’t be able to fight them. But our neshamos possess the kochos to overcome these nisyonos. I’m here to fight. You are here to fight! We can do it! We’re not here to sit around and relax. It’s so important to know this. Hashem chose you!”

Rebbetzin Weinberger encourages me, telling me that we are given everything we need to fight in this war. After all, don’t we say the bracha of “she’asah li kol tzarki — that He provides everything I need”? She then gives me a valuable piece of advice to add to my arsenal.

“Imagine that someone is knocking on the door, and when you look through the peephole, you see a person who looks very frightening. You lock the door and stand there shaking. But he can only come in if you open the door for him; he won’t come in by force. Now imagine if you were to open the door to ask him what he wants.

He’d push his way in and rob the house! Because if you open the door even a little bit, you’re in danger. This is the way we have to deal with the yetzer hara. He has no permission to enter! There is no discussion.

“We need so many zechusim,” Rebbetzin Weinberger says. Each of the mitzvos we do, the challenges we overcome, and the tefillos we say generate tremendous zechusim for Klal Yisroel, and we can never know the far-reaching impacts of each action.

86 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / May 5, 2021 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

Rebbetzin Weinberger shares an especially powerful thought on tefillah: “We must never give up davening, because tefillah is always accepted. Chazal say that tefillah is always fulfilled, at least halfway. The other half is sometimes put away for moments when we need them most. We see this with Moshe Rabbeinu, in Parshas Va’eschanan.

‘Va’eschanan’ has a gematria of 515. Moshe Rabbeinu begged Hashem 515 times that he should be able to enter Eretz Yisroel and see the land. The pasuk then says that he wasn’t allowed in, but he was able to see it.

Hashem fulfilled half of his tefillah then and put away the other half to be used for Klal Yisroel when we need it most. The remainder of those tefillos is still being answered. We have to know that we never daven in vain.”

And yet, the Rebbetzin tells me, people are so often worried that despite their davening, their prayers don’t seem to be answered.

“Someone who doesn’t feel his tefillos are heard by Hashem is like someone who worships idols! Idols ‘don’t hear.’ But Hashem always hears. He always listens. Every tefillah goes into a savings account. The tefillos are there, and whenever Hashem decides is best for us, that is when they are answered! He knows when we need it most. There’s no such thing as them going to waste.”

Since the tragedy in Meron, so many tears have been shed and kapitelach Tehillim said. No, it won’t bring the lost lives back until the time of techiyas hamesim, but the prayers are certainly adding up. With the cumulative effect of all our tefillos and our being mekabel to overcome the yetzer hara in his last stance, we pray that this is the final tragedy of all.

May Hashem comfort His people.

CHAPTER SIX RECAP: Reb

Elazar admits to his wife that he can’t seem to figure out Osher. She suggests anonymously giving Osher a bottle of homemade lemonade for his hoarseness. Osher is sure that the lemonade has been sent to him by his sister Ariella.

Bored by the carpentry shop, Osher manages to insult Dovid. Reb Elazar invites both Dovid and Osher to accompany him to a wedding in Tzefas.

“S

arah, mazel tov!” The kallah’s mother shook her hand warmly. “It’s so lovely to see you. Come, sit down. We saved you a place.”

Sarah smiled and nodded and walked over to the corner table.

“Hello,” she said to the women seated there, some of whom she recognized and some of whom she did not. “Mazel tov.”

“Sarah, mazel tov! How are you?” Elazar’s cousin began passing her bowls of dips one after the other. “You look tired. Until what time did you work today?”

“Until six. Thanks.” Sarah took a bit of coleslaw but ignored the other dips.

“It’s no wonder you look like this, with those black circles under your eyes. With children or adults?”

“Both.”

“Did my neighbor’s daughter start coming to you? You know, she’s hard of hearing.

I highly recommended you to her, and told them it’s worth it to travel once a week all the way to Acco, or Haifa. You go to Haifa sometimes, don’t you?”

Sarah slowly swallowed. “Yes, once a week. And I don’t like to give out information about people.” She smiled, and her American accent sounded even stronger, as it always

THE BORO PARK VIEW / 91

did when she was abashed or uncomfortable. “Can you please pass me the Coke?”

“But I gave her the recommendation!”

“The Coke?”

“No, my neighbor!” Zahava almost threw the soda bottle across the table.

“I told her that you’re the best speech therapist in the north of the country, if not the entire country. I told her that every meter she has to travel to you is worth it for her daughter. I told her that —” “Thanks so much for the recommendation, Zahava. I really appreciate it.”

Sarah leaned back. “But if your daughter was my client, you wouldn’t want me to give information about her freely, would you?”

Zahava didn’t like the comparison, or so it seemed. “Look, Sarah, it’s so nice that you’re sensitive about this,” she said. “But you’re overdoing it a bit.

If I don’t hear about it from you, I’ll hear about it from her. All right, whatever. How is it to live in that far-out little hole?”

“Oh, Acco is no far-out hole. Elazar lived there as a child, remember? It’s a city with lots of charm.”

“Nu, nu,” Zahava said. For a moment she seemed to have forgotten her neighbor’s hard-of-hearing daughter. “I remember that place. We used to vacation there when we were kids. So much time has passed since then… But I don’t understand. Why was Elazar so driven to move back there?”

Sarah was very skilled at ignoring questions she had no intention of answering. There were people like Zahava with whom it was hard to apply this technique, but Sarah was never one to back down in the face of difficulty.

“Sarah?” Zahava asked, after a few moments of impatient waiting.

“What?” Sarah smiled, shaking off some mysterious deep thoughts.

“I asked why Elazar was so driven

92 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / May 5, 2021 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

to go back to Acco. What does he have there now?”

“Oh, lots. Come over for a visit when you have a chance. I’m sure you’ll enjoy reminiscing about your childhood experiences.”

“And yet?”

“Yet what?”

“He didn’t move back there only for the nostalgia, did he?”

“Nostalgia is a wonderful thing.” Sarah studied the flower she had formed from her gold-hued cloth napkin. “So why not?”

“Because normal people don’t live their lives based on nostalgia.” Zahava sensed she was losing what remained of her patience. What was it about Elazar’s wife? She was a pleasant, successful, usually very friendly woman, but sometimes she seemed to disconnect in the middle of a conversation, offering only vague answers to the questions directed to her. Maybe that was her Americanism coming through.

“Normal is a subjective concept, you know.” Sarah put the flower down on her big plate. The waitress standing behind her looked at it admiringly and immediately began to ask her how she’d made it. Sarah slowly demonstrated the different folding techniques, effectively putting an end to her conversation with Zahava.

figure out why we moved, and why here, and why we left Haifa, and what we are looking for here, and don’t we miss our children?”

“Oh, that? Actually, no one badgered me about that. Or maybe they tried and I didn’t notice.”

“So what didn’t they leave you alone about?”

What was it about Elazar’s wife?

She was a pleasant, successful, usually very friendly woman, but sometimes she seemed to disconnect in the middle of a conversation...

***** “People just don’t leave me alone,” she said to her husband late that night after they settled in at home. “How was the wedding for you, and meeting everyone?”

“They didn’t really leave me alone much either,” he replied. “But it was fine. It didn’t bother me.”

“They’ve spent two years trying to

“About this house.”

“This house?” She looked around at the walls.

“Yes. Remember Marcus’s son?

He started dabbling in real estate. He wants to buy it.”

“Really? He, too?”

“He, too.” He smiled. “Another one in line… Throughout almost the entire wedding, he told me about the plans for this area and the developing tourism here. Apparently, the Acco municipality wants to start encouraging tourism in the city.”

“Encouraging it? As it is there are too many gentile tourists and all kinds of others here.”

“During the day. But they don’t stay overnight in the city, usually. There aren’t really any nice hotels here.”

“So that’s what Marcus’s son wants to build? Hotels? For gentile tourists?”

“That’s what I asked him, too. But he said, on the contrary, he wants to build a frum hotel, which would be a big asset for the religious communities here. You know, people will come vacation here,

and they’ll fill the shuls…”

She pondered this. “That sounds a little better.”

“Yes, I also thought so, until I realized that he wants to build that hotel right here.”

“Here?”

Chuckling, he tapped the rug near his bed with his feet. “Right here. Instead of this floor, these walls, and this ceiling. And, of course, instead of some other walls and houses on this street.”

“Well, then, it’s a waste to do all that talking.”

“You understand that. But he did not.”

“So let him not understand. Just like a different woman at the wedding just could not understand why we left Haifa for Acco; it looked to me like she was taking it personally or something… By the way, tell me, did Osher say anything to you about the lemonade?”

“To me? No. Maybe he said something to someone else, though.”

“What do you think he thinks?”

“Truthfully, I don’t know. He’s quite an enigma to me, that boy.” He tried to smile, but it wasn’t his regular easy grin. “I usually get to know my boys pretty fast. But there’s something about him that is so closed, so mysterious.” He was quiet for a long moment. “Hashem will help,” he said finally, with a sigh.

Pr epar e...

To be ther e

The wedding was nice, and I really enjoyed the ride there and back. Reb Elazar has a very big family, and he said that what we saw was only part of it. He is an only son, and he has only one sister, who’s a lot older than him.

But his sister has many children and grandchildren, and Reb Elazar himself has about eight children, and all of them — except for the youngest, who is learning in a yeshivah in Yerushalayim — are married. He’s got lots of grandchildren already, too. I didn’t see any of his kids, because they didn’t come to the wedding. None of them live up north like he does. But a few of his nephews came, and many of his cousins, and together they all have more than 50 kids, bli ayin hara!

So many people came over to him at the wedding, and he introduced almost all of them to me: This one was a nephew, or a cousin, or the son of a cousin, or he was married to the daughter of a cousin, and things like that.

He made sure to introduce me to everyone he spoke to, so I should feel comfortable. Eventually I told him that I won’t remember who is who anyway, and he smiled and stopped explaining to me the whole mishpachology. But he did keep offering me cake and bourekas and other things to eat from the hot buffet.

I sat there eating and drinking, while thinking about how different it is from our family. I never went to a cousin’s wedding when I was a kid. I don’t have even a single frum cousin, so whenever there was a wedding in the extended family, Tatty and Mommy went to say mazel tov, but they didn’t take any of us along. We never went to our grandparents for Shabbos, either. Here and there, Tatty’s parents came to visit us, but Mommy’s parents never did.

no one can compete with.

Sometimes I thought that they didn’t like to come to us because I was very wild and didn’t behave politely. Today I realize that I had nothing to do with it. Still, I’m sure it was always a relief for Mommy to know that she at least has Ariella, who always knows what to say — so if an irreligious relative would decide to visit, she could count on her to help set a positive tone. Of course, that’s besides the fact that Ariella also

ADHD, but she manages with it really well. Mommy always says that she “took it to a good place.”

Mommy never says such things about me.

This reminds me that I have to call Ariella, because of the lemonade. I must know if Reb Elazar told my family that I’m here. If he did, I’m out of here. I came because I wanted to run away, without my family coming after me.

I like to run away a lot.

I hope he didn’t tell them. I really, really hope so.

Because I told him that I had spoken to them myself, but he didn’t understand that I didn’t tell them exactly where I am. It’s not called lying, I think. I mean, I hope.

I must know if Reb Elazar told my family that I’m here. If he did, I’m out of here. always had the greatest test marks, and she knows how to make everyone laugh, and she never causes Mommy or Tatty any embarrassment.

When there was a quiet minute at the wedding, I told Reb Elazar that he should appreciate his big family. He told me that it’s true, and that he really does, but it was good that I was reminding him, because we don’t always remember these things.

Dovid wasn’t sitting next to us. The minute we arrived, he got himself a good spot across from the band, and he didn’t move from there until we left. On the way home, he explained to the Rav that he loves music, and that he plays some guitar and keyboard.

The Rav smiled and said that he also plays, on the accordion. At first, that made me laugh, but then I decided that it really fits. Reb Elazar is not your average person. Which makes us a good match, because I’m not your average person either, and I know it.

People don’t always understand me.

Like Dovid, for example, earlier on.

Why was he even offended? What did I tell him? That I was bored? So what?

What’s there to be offended about?

The only one who totally gets me is Ariella… Sometimes she gets me too well. Maybe it’s because she also has

***** I called Ariella when Shloimy and Yeruchem went down to prepare supper. I stayed upstairs in the apartment, without even checking whether it was my turn to do anything. I actually remembered that it might be, but as a new guy, I’m allowed to forget. I locked the door of the room and called.

I think Ariella was very surprised to hear from me.

“Osher!” she said. “One minute.”

Then I heard some muted sounds, like she was covering the mouthpiece.

After a minute, she was back on the phone. “Sorry, I was in the middle of a lesson with a student, but we’re done now.”

“An accordion lesson?” I asked.

When the Rav told me about his accordion, I totally forgot that I know that instrument very well because of Ariella.

“Yes.” “My Rav also plays the accordion,” I told her.

Oops. She didn’t like that tidbit

at all. “Your Rav? An accordion?” I could literally see her eyebrows drawing close to one another. “What’s his name?”

“Reb Elazar,” I said calmly. “But he never took official lessons, he told me.

He just has inborn musical talent.”

“Reb Elazar,” she echoed slowly.

“Yes, Dassy, good-bye. Next Monday, b’ezras Hashem!”

I waited patiently for Ariella to pick up the conversation with me.

“Who is Reb Elazar?”

“My Rav.” “Where?”

“Here.”

“Where is here?”

“Ariella, enough already! And thanks for the lemonade that you sent, but I really don’t want you to come yourself.” I couldn’t let her win this; she won too often. “Do you understand? I don’t want to see anyone from Bnei Brak. Let me have some time to figure out if this place is good for me.

If not, I’ll be coming home next week.”

“Lemonade?”

“Come on, Ariella!” Now I was annoyed. “First you send me stuff, and then you’ll send me yourself. I know it!”

“But maybe I’ll come to the area, nothing to do with you,” she said. “If, let’s say, there’s an accordion store there with a half-price sale.”

“That’s a ridiculous excuse,” I said irately. I forgot that it’s not good to get angry. It always gets me into trouble.

“Very ridiculous. I don’t think you need to come from Bnei Brak to Acco to buy an accordion.”

“You’re right,” she said warmly, but her tone didn’t convince me, because just like she knows how to read me, I can also read her a bit. And somehow, under all that sugary sweetness, I realized I’d made a mistake. Until now she’d had no idea that I was in Acco.

And I — no one else — had gone and revealed it to her.

DOUBLE CREAM CHEESE CARROT CUPCAKES Here’s a new spin on the oldie-but-goodie carrot cake: cupcakes! Sweet, moist, dense and delicious, filled with a heavenly cheese mixture and topped with mouthwatering frosting, you’ll never have enough of these savory carrot cupcakes.

By: Rivk y Friedman

CUPCAKES

DIRECTIONS

1 cup flour ¾ cup sugar 1 tsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. baking soda ½ tsp. baking powder ¼ tsp. salt 1½ heaping cups grated carrots ⅔ cup oil 2 eggs, beaten

1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.

FILLING

5. Bake for 13 minutes, check how they’re doing, and add a few minutes if necessary. Since the baking time varies greatly with the oven, just check for the right goldenbrown color and springy tops. Allow the cupcakes to cool.

8 ½ ¼ ½

oz. cream cheese, softened cup confectioners’ sugar cup milk teaspoon vanilla extract

FROSTING 4 4 1 2+

oz. cream cheese T. butter tsp. vanilla cups powdered sugar

2. In a separate bowl, combine the grated carrots and the oil.

3. Slowly add the flour mixture to the carrots, stirring until just mixed. Add the beaten eggs and stir a few times (the fewer the better!).

4. Grease a muffin tin or use paper liners. Scoop in the batter, filling each muffin cup about ⅔ full.

6. In a large bowl, combine all filling ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is smooth, about 4 to 6 minutes.

7. To fill the cupcakes, insert a decorating tip into a piping bag and fill with cream cheese filling. Insert the tip into the top of the cupcake. Push it about one inch into the cupcake; there’s no need to cut a hole into it first.

Squeeze the filling into the cupcake. Depending on the size of the cupcake, you should be able to squeeze 1 to 2 tablespoons of filling into it. If the filling starts to leak out of the hole, stop; you have filled the cupcake as much as possible.

8. For the frosting, blend the cream cheese, butter and vanilla until smooth.

9. Slowly beat in the powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth.

10. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag and pipe frosting evenly over the cupcakes.

Optional: Garnish with some toasted, chopped, honeyglazed pecans.

2. Prepare the cookie crust: In a food processor, pulse the sandwich cookies into fine crumbs. Alternatively, you can use a rolling pin to crush the cookies by placing them in a bag, placing the bag on the counter, and rolling back and forth with the rolling pin.

3. Stir together the cookie crumbs and melted butter in the prepared pan.

4. Press this mixture into the bottom of the pan and very slightly up the sides. The crust will be thick.

5. Bake the crust for 7 to 8 minutes. Allow it to cool slightly while you prepare the filling.

6. Prepare the filling: Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat together the cream cheese and granulated sugar on medium speed in a large bowl, for 3 minutes, until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

7. Add the sour cream, peanut butter and vanilla, and beat until combined.

8. With the mixer on low speed, add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition until the mixture is just blended. Do not overmix the filling after you’ve added the eggs.

9. Using a spatula, fold in three-quarters of your chopped peanut chews. The rest will be used to decorate the top of the finished cheesecake.

10. Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Place the springform pan into the oven. Place a pan filled with water on the lowest shelf. (This helps keep your cheesecake moist.)

11. Bake your cheesecake for 50 to 60 minutes or until the center is almost set.

12. Turn off the oven and open the door slightly. Let the cheesecake rest in the oven for 1 hour.

13. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool completely at room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight (preferred).

14. Loosen the cheesecake from the rim of the pan and remove the rim. Top the cheesecake with additional chopped peanut chews and drizzle with melted peanut butter.

NOTES: • You can easily freeze this cheesecake for up to 2 months. Cover tightly and freeze. Let it thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

• Avoid overbaking the cheesecake. When the cheesecake is done, there will still be a 2 or 3 inch wobbly spot in the center; the texture will smooth out as it cools.

ONE OF THE

more unique and cherished parts of the Shavuos morning davening on the first day of yom tov is the piyut, or liturgical poem, called Akdamus. It was composed in the eleventh century by Rabbi Meir ben Yitzchok of Worms, Germany. He is mentioned in several places by Rashi as well as by Tosfos, and there is a tradition that he was one of Rashi’s teachers. This heilige poem consists of 90 rhyming verses written in Aramaic, relating such yesodos of Yiddishkeit as the creation of the world, Olam Haba, the malachim’s praises of Hashem, and the greatness and suffering of the Yidden.

An especially fascinating aspect of the Akdamus is the ancient and enduring tale concerning how and where it was written, and how it became known and revered by Klal Yisroel.

During the time in history in which Rabbi Meir lived, it was common for the notzrim to force the rabbanim of Jewish communities into unfair debates about their faith. One day, the new priest of Worms, who was also a particularly powerful sorcerer who had actually killed Yidden with his kishuf, approached the king and demanded that the Jews present one of their sages to debate him. Although the king had until then been friendly to the Yidden, the galach persuaded him to decree that if he would win the debate, all of the Jews in the kingdom would have to give up either their religion or their lives.

In distress, the local rabbanim and baalei batim held an urgent meeting. It was decided that such an emergency warranted sending someone on a mission to visit the Aseres Hashevatim, or the Ten Lost Tribes, that lived on the other side of the Sambatyon River, who were proficient in both Torah and in the ability to nullify sorcery, which meant they were proficient enough to take on the evil priest.

The one chosen to go was Rabbi Meir, who set out on a long journey full of obstacles and challenges.

Finally he stood on the banks of the turbulent Sambatyon.

He had no choice but to wait for Shabbos to arrive before he crossed, as that was

126 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / May 5, 2021 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

the only time the river rested from its fury. Though this would normally be assur, he was permitted to do so as it was a case of pikuach nefesh.

When Rabbi Meir came ashore in the land of the lost tribes, he was promptly arrested for being mechallel Shabbos. But after he explained the exceptional circumstances, he was taken to meet their Rav, who immediately agreed to his guest’s request. They chose one of their sages, known as “the tailor,” to go and stand up to the priest.

Rabbi Meir, however, would not be allowed to accompany him because, unlike his coming, his return was not a matter of pikuach nefesh. Thus, he had no choice but to remain with the ten tribes until the end of his life. He had realized this would be the case and had even tearfully divorced his wife before he left so she would be free to remarry, yet he’d willingly made this great sacrifice in order to save his fellow Yidden.

During the week before the following Shabbos, when the river would again calm and the sage from the ten tribes would be able to depart on his mission, Rabbi Meir was inspired by Shamayim to compose the Akdamus piyut, which he gave to the emissary to deliver to the heads of the community he had left behind.

When the sage arrived, he engaged in the showdown with the priest — and when the latter tried to harm him with

sorcery, the sage turned it against him, leading to the rasha’s destruction. The king returned to his previously kind behavior, and the Yidden rejoiced in their yeshuah.

The Akdamus poem was duly given over to the rabbanim of the community,

the city where the author came from, in order not to anger the non-Jews who were defeated in the story that was the catalyst for the song.

This story, while mentioned by numerous sources, may possibly be apocryphal, but the existence of the unique river Sambatyon is a fact corroborated by Chazal.

The Gemara (Sanhedrin 65b) brings an exchange between Rabi Akiva and Turnus Rufus, the wicked Roman Governor. Turnus Rufus asked Rabi Akiva: “Who is to say that today is the Shabbos as you say it is? Perhaps it’s really a different day of the week.”

Rabi Akiva said to him: “The Sabbatyon River can prove that today is Shabbos, as it is calm only on Shabbos.” (Note that the Gemara refers to the river by the name “Sabbatyon,” and not “Sambatyon”; however, other sources in Chazal do spell it “Sambatyon.”) Additionally, while the Gemara here cites only the existence

He said that this river, called the Sambatyon, still throws up stones and dirt with great force, and if it would meet a mountain of iron, it would quickly destroy it. and within a short time, the piyut and the amazing story behind it were publicized in many Jewish communities, and it became the widespread custom to recite it on Shavuos. It’s interesting to note that there was no minhag to recite it in Worms,

of the “Shabbos-keeping” river, the Midrash (Bereishis Rabbah 73:6) connects it with the Aseres Hashevatim who are said to live in various regions beyond its banks.

Later sources also cite this connection.

One of the earliest accounts recorded after the times of the Gemara was given by a fascinating yet controversial figure who lived in the late ninth century and went by the name Eldad HaDani (Eldad, from Shevet Dan). He appeared in the Jewish community of Kairouan (presentday Tunisia) and claimed to have come from a land called Chavilah, near the Sambatyon River, where he had been in contact with others of the Aseres Hashevatim.

Although the Jews of Kairouan received Eldad with kavod, they were unsure of whether to believe his tale. Thus, they sent a shailah to Rabbi Tzemach bar Chaim Gaon, of Sura (in Bavel), the gadol hador of the time.

Among other things, they related with some skepticism that Eldad had told them that his ancestors, who lived in

Chavilah, once heard a noise at night like an earthquake, and the next morning they suddenly saw a multitude of people surrounded by a new river throwing up stones and dirt. He said that this river, called the Sambatyon, still throws up stones and dirt with great force, and if it

proaching (though it does stop roiling), and it remains there until Motzei Shabbos. He also said that there are narrow portions of this river, no more than 60 amos across, where people can stand on one side while we stand on the other, and we can call to one another. Nevertheless, they are absolutely imprisoned by this river, neither able to leave nor receive visitors…

Rabbi Tzemach Gaon, far from rebuffing the veracity of Eldad’s words, responded by agreeing that much of Eldad’s tale was consistent with Jewish tradition and that the inaccuracies within it were due to the trials and tribulations of Eldad’s travels. Aspects of Eldad’s tale are also found in Targum Yonasan ben Uziel.

Many prominent medieval rabbanim cite Eldad’s writings as a valid source of Jewish law, while others dismiss him as an impostor and his writings as fantasy. Throughout the ages, other figures of various levels of credibility have ap-

This waterless river continuously roils with stones and dirt six days a week, resting only on Shabbos. On Erev Shabbos a cloud settles on its surface, preventing anyone from ap-

peared on the Jewish scene with tales of such encounters.

As for the Sambatyon’s location, Eldad identified it as being in Africa between Sudan and Ethiopia, while Rabbi Shmuel of Tzangoli claimed it was in Egypt. Rabbi Menashe ben Yisroel (Mikveh Yisroel) said it was in Iran near the Caspian Sea, while Rabbi Avraham Pritzel (Orchos Olam) identified it as the Ganges River in India.

Wherever it is, the Yiddishe neshamah can’t help but be drawn in by the lore of the mysterious river and our long-lost brothers who dwell on the other side.

Perhaps this Shavuos, as we listen to the haunting chant of the Akdamus, we can allow our hearts to long for the revelation of this river — and with it, the reuniting of Klal Yisroel so we can together praise the Torah and its Giver.

Throughout history, there have been — and there still are — various groups and nationalities around who claim to be, or whom others claim are, Yidden who hail or once hailed from the “other side of the Sambatyon” as members of the Aseres Hashevatim. Here is a sampling of some of those theories, ranging from the possible to the peculiar.

THE PASHTUNS The Pashtuns are native to Afghanistan and Pakistan and adhere to an indigenous and pre-Islamic religious code of honor and culture. The belief that Pashtuns are descended from the Ten Lost Tribes has never been substantiated. Many members of the Taliban hail from the Pashtun tribes, and they do not necessarily disclaim their alleged Israelite descent.

THE KASHMIRI The theory of the Kashmiri (those from the Pakistani/ Indian border province of Kashmir) descending from the lost tribes was first suggested by a famous 11thcentury Persian Muslim scholar. Later, 17th-century French explorers of the region commented on the similarity in appearance between the Kashmiris and the Jews, including their “fair skin, prominent noses.”

INDIA Cochin Jews are the oldest group of Jews in India, with roots that are claimed to date back to the time of Shlomo Hamelech. As early as the 12th century, mention is made of the Jews in southern India.

THE IGBO The Igbo Jews of Nigeria claim descent from the tribes of Ephraim, Naftali, Menashe, Levi, Zevulun and Gad. Their claims, however, do not stand up to scrutiny.

CHINESE In the mountainous area of northwest China, near

132 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / May 5, 2021 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

the border of Tibet, in Szechuan, lives the ancient people whom the Chinese call “Chiang” or “Chiang-Min,” whose numbers reach about 250,000. According to their tradition, the Chiang tribe is the descendant of Avraham, and their forefather had twelve sons. Those among them who did not take Chinese wives after their victory in war still look Semitic.

JAPANESE Some have speculated that the Japanese people may be the direct descendants of some of the Aseres Hashevatim. Researchers note, however, that DNA evidence shows that there are no genetic links between Japanese and Israelite people.

There are similar conjectures concerning the Koreans.

NATIVE AMERICANS In 1650, Thomas Thorowgood published a book in England entitled Jewes [sic] in America or Probabilities That the Americans Are of That Race. Of this work, a critic cynically wrote: “[Some missionaries were] active in trying to convert the Indians but suspected that they might be Jews and realized that it had better be prepared for an arduous task.”

THE BRITISH Adherents of “British Israelism” believe that the lost tribes migrated northward, over the Caucasus, and became the Scythians, Cimmerians and Goths, as well as the progenitors of the later Germanic invaders of Britain. An author and critic of the theory states that the proof cited by adherents of British Israelism is “of a feeble composition even by the low standards of the genre.”

Do you love the scent of flowers? The breezy smell of clean linen? Or perhaps the whiff of cinnamon buns fresh out of the oven?

Imagine if your house would smell that way all day, every day!

If you spend most of your hours at home, you probably don’t even realize what aroma hits your neighbor as she stands at your door.

Your carpets and walls, soaps and detergents, all contribute to the mix… which is why every house has its own unique smell.

How can you make sure yours is pleasant and inviting?

BY: T. GESTETNER

Meet the latest trending “fragrance factory” — the world of essential oils. Welcome, aromatherapy!

Essential oils have long been praised for their potent healing factors, and the countless variants nurture and cure mind and body. But simply used, these aromatic oils make great deodorizers, bringing lovely scents into the room.

From scented candles and air fresheners to laundry agents and cleaners, today essential oils are being used to upgrade the olfactory experience in many a room and home.

HOW DOES IT WORK? With all the hype, there still seems to be a cloak of mystery surrounding essential oils. Are they innocent or potent? Hazardous or harmless?

There are so many controversial health claims, mainly because evidence is so limited. Let’s take a deeper look at what the oils really are.

Extracted from plants, essential oils capture the scent and flavor, or the “essence,” of the plant. The derived oils are so concentrated that they are even more intense than the plant itself. This makes essential oils overpowering in certain uses or dosages, or for certain people.

Take peppermint, for example. It may relieve a senior’s GI discomfort, but can potentially cause jaundice in babies or breathing problems for kids. When essential oils are combined with appropriate carrier oils that dilute them properly, however, they can create a safe, ready-to-use product.

These compounds contain unique characteristics based on the different plants they come from, and they boast vast therapeutic properties. From stress to depression, digestion to skin conditions, essential oils can have an impact on one’s both physical and emotional well-being. Typically, they are not swallowed, but instead inhaled or applied topically to the skin.

The benefits are plentiful — when the oils are used correctly and in moderation.

May 5, 2021 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / 141 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

HOUSEHOLD SOLUTIONS If you start looking at ingredient labels, you’ll find essential oils listed in a multitude of products, from cosmetics, soaps and dental products, to detergents, insecticides and paints. Some foods contain essential oils, too, as the oils are said to extend a product’s shelf life.

Let’s explore some ways these therapeutic oils can be used to add a fragrant ambiance to your home.

AIR FRESHENER Malky decided to replace the artificial air fresheners she used with something more natural. She mixed a few drops of lavender with a carrier oil and put the combo in a spritz bottle. Presto! Her homemade concoction lent a fresh and breezy feel to her home.

Malky’s goal was the pleasant scent, and she didn’t think much into the effects the spray would automatically have on the people inside the room. Nevertheless, it took a few days, and she suddenly realized that her colicky baby was definitely less fussy! He’d begun sleeping more peacefully than he ever had, and this “fringe benefit” was super exciting!

Be it via spritz bottle, candle or diffuser, freshening the room with unprocessed aromatic oils is a win-win.

The house will smell fresh, while minds and moods can be improved!

Note: Essential oils should never be used, in any form, for babies younger than three months. Care should also be taken during childbearing stages.

LAUNDRY You can add zing to your clothes by using essential oils in your laundry. Just put a few drops into your unscented detergent, or create your own laundry-scent booster by mixing essential oils with salt. Fresh loads of laundry will come out smelling fresh and inviting.

Note: You may want to patch test to make sure the oil doesn’t stain the clothes.

A nice way to freshen sheets between washes is to sprinkle a drop of lavender or other aromatic oil over it.

As an added bonus, the calming effect of the soft scents may even help you fall asleep!

CARPETS AND RUGS Plush flooring may make your house homey, but it is also a number-one net for trapping all sorts of smells.

Dirt and spills can be remembered for a long time…

Scented baking soda is a great solution. Just mix some

of your favorite essential oils with baking soda, then sprinkle this on the carpet some twenty minutes before vacuuming. Ahhh! The room will smell fresh and fragrant.

CLOSETS AND DRAWERS How about aromatic oil sachets for your linen closet or sock drawer?

Purchase ready-made organza or cotton bags, or make your own using scraps of cloth. Fill the bags with dried herbs such as dried rose petals or lavender flowers and rice, and mix with a few droplets of essential oil. Use the sachets to adorn your home and contribute continuous freshness.

The scents will fade with time, but you can always renew their strength by adding fresh drops of oil.

CLEANING AGENTS

DIY LAUNDRY SCENTS SEA SCENTS Crisp and clean Orange + Rosemary (2:1 ratio)

CITRUS STYLE A fresh, fruity flavor Lemon + Grapefruit (2:1 ratio)

FRUITY FLORAL A luxurious blend Bergamot + Lavender (2:1 ratio)

Many essential oils are said to have antibacterial properties. They may be useful in fighting bacteria — especially strains that have grown resistant to antibiotics. This also means the oils get to the root of any bad smell, tackling the problem while simultaneously infusing it with a fresh scent.

Adding a few drops to household cleaners can keep the house smelling good — and act as a great disinfectant. Tea tree and lemongrass oils make perfect additions to all-purpose cleaning agents.

Try it, and the next time you mop your floor or wash down the cabinets, you’ll be spreading good aromas, too!

HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: THE HISTORY OF ESSENTIAL OIL HEALING Rene Maurice Gattefosse was in his lab, puttering with the healing properties of plants, when he burned his hand.

Without a second thought, he plunged his hand into lavender oil. Wonder of wonders! The burn healed quickly and left no scars.

And that’s how French chemist Gattefosse kicked off a brand new fad: aromatherapy.

Ever since that 1920 “accident,” people around the world have turned to modern aromatherapy and the use of essential oils to heal and enrich the mind and body.

In truth, essential oils have been in use long before the official practice of aromatherapy was born.

In Ancient Egypt, aromatic oils like aniseed and cedar were used in cosmetics and ointments, and the Egyptians used myrrh in their embalming process. Traditional Chinese and Indian medicine recorded more than 700 oils, including cinnamon, ginger and sandalwood. Greek physician Hippocrates recommended essential oil treatment and wrote extensively on the subject.

During the Islamic Golden Age, the use of essential oils expanded even more. Master alchemist Ibn Sina (also known as Avicenna) developed a distillation technique, and essential oils could be used in a safer, tempered way.

In the years that followed, distilled essential oils became an integral part of medieval pharmaceuticals in Europe.

Over in the United States, essential oil production gained popularity as early as the eighteenth century.

More currently, the last few decades have seen an upturn in aromatic oil use for health, well-being and pleasure — an ancient pattern turned modern fad!

TRASH A hot spot for unwelcome odors is the garbage can.

Put a cotton ball dampened with a few drops of aromatic oils, such as lemon or tea tree, inside the can before inserting a garbage bag. This should do the trick.

TUB A bath can become an oasis of tranquility with just a few drops of essential oil. It’s a lush, luxurious way to relax and let go. Plus, it can loosen physical tensions such as stiff muscles.

Mix ten to twelve droplets of essential oil with an ounce of carrier oil, and add it to the water as it flows from the spout. Wait a few moments for the water to disperse.

Note: Essential-oil baths are not recommended for kids who may come to ingest some water.

With essential oils around your home, there’ll be no need to stop and smell those roses… you’ll be able to smell them all the time! * This article does not address potential side effects of these potent elements. Consult your physician or research the effects of any given product before using it in your home.

Nothing announces spring louder than pretty flowers!

And what can be prettier than beautiful flowers on beautiful little girls? Without further ado, I introduce you to these I-can’t-believe-they’re-so-easyto-make statement flower wreaths!

Note: These are best made fresh, immediately before use. If you’ll be using them a couple of hours later, keep the wreaths in a cool place.

Supplies: Gardening wire Gardening tape Flowers of your choice Ribbon About a yard of ribbon per wreath (so you have enough for the ends to hang down prettily). Keep the edges from fraying with a lighter or some nail polish.

Scissors

150 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / May 5, 2021 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

Picking the Flowers Always buy a little more than you think you need; you don’t want to run out in the middle of your project. You also want to have enough to play around with. (The only downside to having extra pretty flowers is... having pretty flowers!)

For a classic look, go with baby’s breath! You will need approximately 6 to 7 stems per wreath to create that luscious look.

For patterns and designs, there are no rules! You may want to ask your florist for flowers that will last nicely out of water. Choose flowers that have different shades, shapes and textures that look nice together.

Important: Keep the flowers in water until you’re ready to work on the wreaths.

LEARN IT. MASTER IT. RISE ABOVE.

Creating the Base 1. Twist together two pieces of wire, and form into a wreath.

2. Create small loops at the two ends.

3. Secure the loops with tape, making sure to cover any sharp edges of the wire.

Adding the Flowers 1. Place a bunch of small flowers on the wire and hold them in place.

2. Wrap the tape around the flower stems. The first bunch should be wrapped with tape 3 to 4 times.

3. Add small bunches of flowers, overlapping the stems that are already taped to the wire.

4. For a fuller look, use more flowers per bunch, and overlap them very closely together.

5. Keep wrapping tape at least twice around each bunch, until the entire base is covered with flowers.

Cluster Designs and Patterns 1. Play around with the flowers before you start taping, until you achieve a pattern you like.

2. Start adding the flowers on the wire, one stem at a time, wrapping it with tape as you go. You can always add or remove flowers as you work.

Once you’re all done, thread the ribbon through the loops, and tie it with a bow. Now don’t forget the camera!

It is gorgeous, but its scent is so strong that a mechutenista once reported putting the bloom out on the porch when her daughter received it in her kallah bouquet since the family could not tolerate the smell.

Mrs. Racheli Abayov

A unique presentation: We upgrade kallah gifts with gorgeous live blooms. When one is spending so much on diamonds and silver, the fresh flower art presents the gift in a manner that showcases its beauty.

There are no rules when giving flowers, and I would never consult any educational material on the matter. The only rule I follow:

Give your recipient the flora they love!

FLOWER SHORTAGES Since flowers are not company-produced, farming issues affect availability in a large way, as does demand. This past week, baby breaths were scarcely available; we received just one box of blooms to divide among our three branches, whereas we usually order twelve!

Recenlty farmers warned that weather irregularity and changes in the growth pattern had left them unsure as to the right time for cutting hydrangeas, severely compromising the the supply and affecting the cost.

However, despite the shortage, we do everything we can to avail to our customers the flowers they love.

Obviously, short supply also translates to rising prices on the little there is available.

Production of flowers was also greatly affected by COVID-19. Last year, when company employees contracted the coronavirus and entire staffs of field workers were unable to go out to tend to the flowers, entire fields of roses had to be burned, and those effects still linger.

If flowers had voices, they’d sing lullabies, don’t you think? There’s just something about flowers that makes us feel so happy and at peace. And with such a variety of blooms, the floral world boasts flowers ranging from odd to beyond. Let’s explore our typical make-me-happies, and some less-typical flora, too.

IN NUMBERS > The rose is considered the most beautiful flower in the world and is the No. 1 most sold cut flower.

IN CHARACTER > Mimosa punica, or sensitive plant, has whitish-pink fuzzy flowers that look like little pom-poms. True to its moniker, this bashful bloom will actually fold up its leaves when it is touched.

> 50% of flowers are sold by supermarket chains. > There are over 400,000 varieties of flowers in the world. Mind-boggling — but read on to see why not all of them grace our vases. > The flower with the world’s largest bloom is the Rafflesia arnoldii, which is found in the rainforests of Indonesia. It can grow to measure 3 feet across and weigh up to 15 pounds! The Rafflesia arnoldii is a parasitic plant, which means it mooches some or all of its nutritional requirements off another living plant. This flower is very rare, which is a good thing — like the Corpse Flower, it emits the smell of rotting flesh! Thankfully, it only blooms for three to four days... > I’ve always thought there was one source of food aromas: food. Apparently, though, flowers have a foothold in that corner too because there’s a whole host of growing things that smell like edibles! The popcorn cassia smells like buttered popcorn, Sassafras trees have leaves that smell like Froot Loops cereal when you pinch them, and the chocolate cosmos, a stunning burgundy flower, smells like chocolate! > No need for soil in some plants such as orchids; they can get all of their nutrients from the air. > Sunflowers didn’t get their name for nothing; they’re actually pretty tight with the sun. They move throughout the day in response to the sun’s movement from east to west. > Patience is a virtue, and it pays off. Some species of bamboo develop flowers after 65 or 120 years! And — throw unity

168 / THE BORO PARK VIEW / May 5, 2021 www.thebpview.com / 718.408.8770

into the mix — all plants of one bamboo species develop flowers at the same time, no matter where they’re located around the world. > The Agave, also known as the century plant for its longevity, is monocarpic. After spending its years without flowers, it finally grows a single bloom and then dies. > At the size of a grain of rice, the Wolffia globosa, or watermeal, is the tiniest flower in the world. It blooms in a small hole in the surface of its plant. > The Cypripedium calceolus has been nicknamed the Lady’s Slipper Orchid for its protruding center petal that resembles the comfy footwear.

IN BENEFITS • The priciest spice, saffron, is sourced from a crocus bloom.

• The juice from the bluebell flower was historically used to make glue.

• Gerbera daisies placed next to your bed can help you catch your zzz’s, because Gerberas emit oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide and toxins at night. It is said to be especially helpful for anyone suffering from sleep apnea.

> Vanilla flowers are so delicate, they open only for a couple of hours at a time and need to be pollinated by hand to produce a vanilla bean. Vanilla ice cream lovers out there, be grateful.

FLOWER TRIVIA > Not only do roses make us happy, they’re also related to many healthful favorites — apples, raspberries, cherries, peaches, plums, nectarines, pears and almonds. > Rainbow roses are a riot of artificial color. Their stems are split from the bottom and placed in different cups of color so that the vibrancy can be sucked into the petals along with the moisture. > In Holland in the 1600s, the bulbs of tulips were more valuable than gold. > Tulips can also be substituted for onions in a recipe! I prefer them in their vases, though. > How many greenbacks would you dish out for a growing thing? The costliest flower ever sold is the Shenzhen Nongke Orchid, which took eight years to develop and blooms only once every four to five years. How much cash? Just $200,000 at an auction. > Here’s a handy fact: A bit of sugar or citrus soda in your vase will keep cut flowers fresh for longer. > White flowers smell stronger than colorful ones. I didn’t know that, either. > Queen Victoria loved flowers so much that she wore an orange floral wreath instead of the expected crown. > The only official state flower that’s not a flower is Maine’s: the pinecone!

But none like Masmidim.

At Masmidim, a division of Ichud Mosdos HaChinuch, our mission is to give children with learning disabilities the ability to grow and thrive, absent of any stigma.

As the only self-contained program of its kind to operate within the framework of a mainstream Yeshiva, Masmidim’s proven method of skill-based development, paired with unmatched warmth, results in mainstream success within just a few years.

Apply today and see why there is truly nothing like Masmidim.
