Free Speech Denied in the Torah
In the Torah portion for this week, King Balak of the Amonites hires Balaam, a mercenary sorcerer, to curse the Israelites. For reasons we don't learn from the Torah text, Balaam is able to summon God's power, so if left unchecked, Balaam could do some real damage to the Israelites. Reluctently, Balaam agrees to King Balak's request to curse the Israelites, but whenever Balaam summons the power of the curse, God changes the words from a curse to a blessing. In fact, this is the spot in the Torah where we read blessing, "mah tovu ohalecha ya'akov, mishk'notecha yisrael," How lovely are your tents O' Jacob, your dwelling places O' Israel. God won't allow Balaam to use any curse words, and in fact turns Balaam's curses into blessings. God is regulating free speech! The study of Torah can be simply for personal spiritual fulfillment, but I believe a more powerful approach is to study Torah and use it as a lens through which we evaluate our actions and our beliefs.

How can I celebrate freedom while 134 Jews are not free?
Passover (Pesach) celebrates our ancestors' freedom from slavery. How can we celebrate being free while 130+ Jews are held hostage in Gaza? I've received this question in various forms over the last few days. This year is different from all other years because, this year, we commemorate Pesach with the knowledge that we are not all free. Just as Pharaoh sought the annihilation of our people, so too do evil rulers seek our demise today. However, like our ancestors, we will prevail over our enemies. We will celebrate together again in full joy. This year, we marked Chanukah, Tu b'Shvat, and Purim with mixed emotions. We celebrated the significance of these days and held the pain of the hostages and their families in our hearts and minds. We will do the same for Pesach. The irony is not lost on any of us that we will mark the day our ancestors gained their freedom while 130+ Jews are not free. The Pesach seder is the right time to talk about this conflicted day. When you eat the Hillel … [Read more...]

CHAI HOLIDAY FOOD DRIVE KICKS OFF Participate in Temple Emanu-El’s annual High Holiday food drive, and you will make a difference in the fight against hunger. All donations go to the Community Assistance Center (CAC) and the Food Pantry at Jewish Family & Career Services (JF&CS). Both directly serve food-insecure families and individuals in our community. Also known as Project Isaiah, this year the drive has been renamed the Chai Holiday Food Drive, as we focus on “chai”, the Hebrew word for “life”. And since “chai” is symbolized by the number 18, we’re asking congregants to consider donating from 18 nutritionally dense, non-perishable foods. Foods to consider include: canned meats canned soup canned chili canned vegetables canned tuna canned stews canned beans quinoa rice oatmeal & other cereals juice boxes or cans fruit cups peanut butter & jelly canned spaghetti sauce & pastas boxed pasta meals (like mac ‘n’ cheese) You can drop off your donation … [Read more...]
