With
the untimely passing of Avraham Lukas aka Rabbi A. L., I had to remove
all the four names that he had given me as I have no way of knowing if they were
cured or the reverse.
With
the Hiatus of three weeks, I had to write only the major news from Israel and
the first weeks only the move moving events in the world or with Israel the last
20 or so links are from this week in Inyanay Diyoma.
As
I published last issue my direct e-mail I received a notice of the passing of a
very mild man and an influence on the Cincinnati and other Communities.
Baruch
Dayan Emmes Rabbi Yacov Lustig (Yacov ben Tova Ethel on my prayer listed passed
away).
In an
e-mail Chespid by the Chief Chabad Rabbi of Brazil: Our final
address has three names which represent three kinds of lives and ways of
living.
1 - Beis
Hakvoros, those who live as if life ends here and then a cold slab covers
all.
2 - Beis
Olam, those who leave projects which will continue even after they have
gone.
3 - Beis
Hachaim, those who continue alive and among us because they inspired and
inspire, whose company was a pleasure and an honor, and will always be
remembered.
Rabbi
Yakov Lustig was a Beis Hachaim yid.
Shabsi
and Yael Alpern
Rabbi
Haskel Lookstein recorded how he once asked Rabbi Lustig something and he
recalled the Rabbinical Source immediately. To me he was like a calm big
brother. Here is an article that Jeffery from FL sent to our small
congregation.
Rabbi
Jacob Lustig, the longtime spiritual leader of Keneseth Israel (KI) of
Cincinnati was born in Hungary on September 24, 1926 – the second day of Sukkot
– to Abraham and Tova Ettel Lustig. His family arrived in Cincinnati in 1939 and
immediately became close to Rabbi Eliezer Silver, the Rabbi of Keneseth Israel.
His father, Abraham, became Rabbi Silver’s Shamash – assistant – and was
involved with all of Rabbi Silver’s work locally, nationally, and
internationally.
Since
Cincinnati did not yet have any Jewish day schools, Rabbi Lustig’s mother rented
an apartment in New York so Rabbi Lustig and his siblings could attend Torah
V’Daas, a Yeshiva in Brooklyn. In 1943 Rabbi Lustig was a student in the first
class of the Lakewood Yeshiva founded by Rabbi Aaron Kotler. He remained close
to Rabbi Kotler throughout Rabbi Kotler’s life. The Lakewood Yeshiva, which
started with 13 students, is now the largest Yeshiva outside of
Israel.
Rabbi
Lustig had a brilliant mind and could quote rabbinic sources from memory. He
maintained close ties with many of the rabbinic luminaries and was blessed with
the ability to transmit their thoughts to the wider public over the course of
his lifetime.
When he
returned to Cincinnati, Rabbi Lustig followed in his father’s footsteps
purchasing rental properties in Avondale. Later Rabbi Lustig branched out into
operating nursing homes. He was well liked by both the residents and the staff
of the homes he ran. He married his first wife, Edith nee Blau, in 1956. Edith
passed away in 1999. He married his wife Esther in
2002.
After
Rabbi Silver passed away Keneseth Israel searched for a new rabbi and invited
two candidates to Cincinnati. Neither candidate was hired, the synagogue
selected Rabbi Lustig as their new leader. He was the rabbi at Keneseth Israel
for nearly forty years, serving from 1968 to 2006. Rabbi Lustig’s business
success allowed him to provide substantial funds to keep Keneseth Israel
operating during some lean years. The synagogue moved from Avondale to Roselawn
and Rabbi Lustig made sure that there was always the required quorum for
services. He also purchased new and updated prayer books for the
synagogue.
Rabbi
Lustig was generous with both his time and money. Like his mentor, Rabbi Silver,
he helped out those in need – often proactively before they would need his help.
His generosity extended to helping people find jobs and providing money to
people trying to start their own business. He was a great contributor to
community institutions like Cincinnati Hebrew Day
School.
Rabbi
Lustig passed away, at age 90, on September 19, 2017 – 28 Elul 5777. He is
survived by his wife Esther, his son Dovid, and his siblings. He was
pre-deceased by his first wife Edith.
Parsha
Beresheis
A
funny thought popped into my head about Organic Food, which supposedly lengthens
life. Remember Chava ate Organic Apples and brought death into the
world.
Our
Parsha starts with Bet and not Aleph for Bet is the first letter of Bracha aka
blessing and Aleph if the first letter of Arur aka curse.
The
Roger M. Pearlman theory of 6 Day Creation. First:
This is the initial stage of material from nothing. I believe that both the Big Bang and the Pearlman coincide here. The material is the whole universe the size of a pea and the temperature outside is absolute zero but the temperature inside is cooking like a pressure cooker it is so dense that light cannot escape. The inside temperature is 10 with 46 zeros Kelvin scale.
2 Now the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters.
The internal thermonuclear compressed reactions are producing Helium, Carbon and other elements. One of them is the main composition of the planet earth, which is Iron. The reactions produce the elements in clusters of the same element that could be Silicon, Iron or Nitrogen. Oxygen is combining with Hydrogen as part of the fiery heat in this complex compacted steam. G-D is by this in HIS contracted form called Tzimzum in the Kabballah.
Here is where I differ with the Pearlman theory. I claim that since the earth formed and condensed on the first day so did the stars and galaxies. His original theory was the 4th day.
After
I wrote him, he replied. Yes I
would be interested if we can restrict to and or preclude cosmic inflation
expansion to day one or day four, or if either would be possible based on the
relevant passukim and any limits on how Hashem did based on the factual natural
observations, knowing Hashem would not base creation on shecker,
(falsehood) albeit
not making so obious that we would have no free-will / merit for recognizing
Hashem did/does/will do it :)

regards, for constructive feed-back, rm
3 And God said: 'Let there be light.' And there was light.
This is the Big Bang spewing out the light and the elements from that pea sized universe and G-D expands with it.
4 And God saw the light that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.
This is where the Pearlman Theory is better than the conventional theories of today. He has the expansion going out by the heat even faster than the speed of light. They also expand faster than the speed of light but take very long to form stars. He has stars form at 2,000,000,000 light years on the first day. They take very long and go out to a diameter of 93,000,000,000 light years needing mysterious unmeasurable dark matter and energy. He claims that a smaller universe does not need this mysterious dark matter and energy, which has never been found or measure. He has one big bang in the year zero and they have many different expansions that are faster than the speed of light. His theory of the heat pushing the matter out into the zero Kelvin world makes a lot of sense to me. National Geographic had a series on some mysterious happens from NASA one of them was a photo from the Hubble Telescope of Galaxies moving away from earth at faster than the speed of light. Did the release of the pressure and heat cause space to warp. Recently, there has been some indication of galaxies forming earlier than the previous calculations.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.
How long was the first day? Was it a 24-hour day? A year or like the Psalm: 90:4 For a thousand years in Thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past? The Lubavitcher Rebbe insisted that it was a 24-hour day that we know.
6 And God said: 'Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.'
Not part of his theory but Pearlman mentioned to me in an e-mail that Angels were created on the second day based on the Medrash quoted by Chabad. http://www.chabad.org/parshah/article_cdo/aid/974948/jewish/When-were-the-angels-created.htm
7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters, which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.
We learn here that the initial earth was created as a ball and the planet was completely watery. The Pshat here is that water on earth and in the clouds are separated on the second day. Water in comets and other heavenly bodies were also separated on this day.
9 And God said: 'Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear.' And it was so.
This can only be if the original ball has tectonic forces uplifting land mass or masses to get to heights about sea level. So the dry land appeared on the third day.
10 And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters called He Seas; and God saw that it was good. 11 And God said: 'Let the earth put forth grass, herb yielding seed, and fruit-tree bearing fruit after its kind, wherein is the seed thereof, upon the earth.' And it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, herb yielding seed after its kind, and tree bearing fruit, wherein is the seed thereof, after its kind; and God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening and there was morning, a third day.
How is it that grass and trees can form on the third day, without the sun? One there is still excess photons of light floating around the universe. Secondly, the stars are much closer. KEMA or the Pleiades was very close and Adam saw over 100 stars so he named it in Hebrew “like one hundred” that is how Gemara Berachos the Sages knew this and I always wondered but if Adam could actually see them closer by 5788 light years with the naked eye (or maybe more if they were still in a space warp faster than the speed of light), then they would appear brighter as if one had a six inch telescope.
14 And God said: 'Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;
Here is where Pearlman initially figured that the stars were created. However, in my opinion, this is where the constellations were fixed for our viewing when the sun captured the earth as we see below.
15 and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth.' And it was so. 16 And God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; and the stars. 17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness; and God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
This was the day that the solar system formed and the earth-moon combination went into effect. The combination allowed us to establish an accurate lunar calendar for when seasons would come into effect after the change in the earth orbit at the flood. At this point there were no seasons and the earth’s orbit is a 12 hour day and 12 hour night. (Although a Medrash on Adam states in tractate Avoda Zara that on Dec. 21st he recorded the shortest day and then when the days did not get shorter on Dec. 25th, he was very happy and he noticed the days getting longer on Jan. 1st and started the holiday of “Calendar”. It is a nice Medrash but the Pshat after the flood is the effect of seasons first mentioned.) In fact there might not have been even rain before the flood as prior to man there was an Ayd that watered the garden. 2:5 No shrub of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground; 6 but there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
[Medrash – When Metushalah died, the world took on the light like that of the six days of creation. Velikovsky theorizes that this was a planetary or large asteroid encounter that glowed like the seven days of creation during his seven days of mourning. After which the flood occurred. For look at the calculation of years at the end of Beresheis Chapter 5. Metushalah died in 1656 and that is the year of the Mabul aka Deluge aka Biblical Flood.]
This year I am not covering the creation of Man but one can look into Tractate Berachos 61B (google “come and hear Berachos 61B”) for the creation of man.
…
5:25 And Methuselah lived a hundred eighty and seven years, and begot Lamech. 26 And Methuselah lived after he begot Lamech seven hundred eighty
and two years, and begot sons and daughters. 27 And all the days
of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years; and he died. 28 And Lamech lived a hundred eighty and two years, and begot a son.
Unlike
Metushalah who had merit to ward off the flood, Lamech did not. If you do your
homework, you see that 777 years when he died occurred in 1656.
29
And he called his name Noah, saying: 'This same shall comfort us in our work and
in the toil of our hands, which comes from the ground which the LORD has
cursed.' 30 And Lamech lived after he begot Noah five hundred
ninety and five years, and begot sons and daughters. 31 And all
the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years; and he died. 32 And Noah was five hundred years old; and Noah begot Shem, Ham,
and Japheth.
One
man given 120 years to make a project like the Teva could not complete it but
with three sons for purchasing, hauling and building the Teva. Gathering the
animals (although the Medrash states they came on their own) would require a lot
of trading and purchasing during these years.
Already after Adam and Seth died, people began forgetting HASHEM and worshipped HIS servants, the stars, planets, and other natural phenomena. Kings and princes took on the role of demi-gods and had the right to the first night or to take any woman they wanted. (This continued throughout the Middle Ages long after the flood perhaps not as gods. I don’t want to go into what ISIS did with captured women, girls and using boys although theoretically homosexuality is forbidden by Islam.)
The people before the flood were guilty of bloodshed, sexual improprieties, idol worship and Hamas or violence that was thievery and bullying.
3 And the LORD said: 'My spirit shall not abide in man forever, for that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.'
In 120 years when Metushalah shall pass on, I will no long have a Tzaddik in the world that can atone for their sins and I will destroy the world.
4 The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.
Nephilim has a number of means in the commentaries. I have seen the names of two angels. I have seen commentaries that these are princes who were demi-gods and lastly, I have seen claims of them being giants. I saw some “photographic proof” which turned out to be false and a film of claims about people all over the world being between 9 to 12 feet tall. An average man or woman had no power against these extremely tall bullies who would talk by force any woman any time.
5 And the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
IF YOU THINK THAT WE ARE BETTER TODAY, THEN CHECK AGAIN. THERE ARE THOUGH MORE RIGHTEOUS IN OUR GENERATION AND ABOUT TWO BILLION PLUS WILL SURVIVE THE WAR OF GOG AND MAGOG BUT THE WICKED WILL PERISH.
6 And it repented the LORD that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at His heart. 7 And the LORD said: 'I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and creeping thing, and fowl of the air; for it repents ME that I have made them.' 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
The L-RD decided that a brand new world would have to be created. At this point, only Noach as his family, a handful of animals and fish would survive.

Parsha
Noach
6:9
These are the generations of Noah. Noah was in his generations a man righteous
and whole-hearted; Noah walked with God.
Adam
was like a very small child. Noach a bit more aged walking with. Avraham more
independent and walking before G-D and finally Moshe talking as if face-to-face.
Noach found Chen or grace, which was his redeeming quality according to Rabbi
Pinchas Winston Shlita. BUT NOACH IS NOT RECORDED AS PRAYING FOR HIS GENERATION
LIKE AVRAHAM PRAYED FOR SODOM OR DEBATED ON BEHAVE OF PEOPLE LIKE MOSHE FOR AM
YISRAEL.
10
And Noah begot three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
As
much as Noach tried to educate his sons, the locals might have influenced them.
Shem was the oldest so he met Metushalah who had heard the creation story from
Adam and was a reliable source without too much apart to give it on to Yacov.
Ham, the middle child, must have had some problems as his son Canaan became
corrupt and he also gave birth to Mitzrayim. Libya and other countries in the
area. Yefes, the baby, was concerned with beauty and external substance. So he
became the father of Magog, Germany and Persia.
11
And the earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
The
word used for violence is Hamas.
12
And God saw the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted
their way upon the earth. 13 And God said unto Noah: 'The end of all flesh is
come before Me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold,
I will destroy them with the earth. 14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; with
rooms shalt thou make the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
Despite
of all of your flaws, you have the only potential to continue but the human and
animal kingdom. Detailed instructions on how to make the Teva followed. Since it
is a Teva or box, it appears that the Ark was cubic in nature and not shaped
like a modern boat. In the book, In Search of Noah’s Ark, there is an
experiment done with such a box and it can withstand waves of 200
feet.
…7:4
For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and
forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I blot out from
off the face of the earth.'
The
Medrash talks about the sky lighting up like the primeval sky when Metushalah
died like a planetary or asteroid impact.
5
And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him. 6 And Noah was six
hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth. 7 And Noah went
in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark,
because of the waters of the flood.
We
know the story. Of the clean animals and birds, Noach took 7 each and of the
non-kosher only pairs. The herbivorous ate straw and other things that had been
stored. The carnivorous at fish and perhaps wheat, rice and soya
products
…
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights. 13 In the
selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and
Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark; 14 they,
and every beast after its kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every
creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind, and every fowl after
its kind, every bird of every sort. … 17 And the flood was forty days upon the
earth; and the waters increased, and bore up the ark, and it was lifted up above
the earth. … 24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred
and fifty days.
Even
if somebody the last minute built an ark with food after 190 days they were
gone. During the time in the Ark many of the animals hibernated so they needed
next to no food to survive. Alligators can go the whole winter and more without
eating until the ponds are refilled with water and fish. Still the logistics of
feeding animals that were small was enormous and I assume that a good deal of
the clean-up details went out the windows of the Ark. They were not our glass
windows. There was a Zohar on the Ark for light. I also assume logistically that
they had some lighting of torches and a year’s supply for the lower
decks.
8:
1 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were
with him in the ark; and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters
assuaged; 2 the fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were
stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained.
I
already in previous years mentioned that there are giant rocks that hold water
in the bowels of the earth. You have geysers that sprout some of the deep water
up. But miles below are these rocks with more water than the oceans. It is only
the will of G-D that the water remains down there.
3
And the waters returned from off the earth continually; and after the end of a
hundred and fifty days the waters decreased. 4 And the ark rested in the seventh
month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
It
should be noted that it was not necessarily on Har Ararat but the mountain
range. So searching would need a broader base. הָרֵי אֲרָרָט is
written in Hebrew. The translation above is correct but indicates one of the
mountains in the range.
5
And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month; in the tenth month,
on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
The
Ararat range is high. Har Ararat is 16,854 feet or 5,137 meters and the water
was 15 Amos about that at the height of the flood. The mountain is higher by
1000 feet or 300 meters the tallest mountains in Switzerland and France. So all
the peaks close by would be lower by a good deal. The air was rarer there
usually but the water pushed up the atmosphere slightly so breathing was not as
hard as it would be for people used to lower levels.
6
And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the
ark which he had made. 7 And he sent forth a raven, and it went forth to and
fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth. 8 And he sent forth a
dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground.
9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him
to the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth; and he put forth
his hand, and took her, and brought her in unto him into the ark. 10 And he
stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark. 11
And the dove came in to him at eventide; and lo in her mouth an olive-leaf
freshly plucked; so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
The
Dove came back Erev Shabbos just before sunset.
12
And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; and she returned
not again unto him any more. 13 And it came to pass in the six hundred and first
year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up
from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and
behold, the face of the ground was dried.
This
is Rosh Hashanah.
14
And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the
earth dry. 15 And God spoke unto Noah, saying: 16 'Go forth from the ark, thou,
and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee. 17 Bring forth with
thee every living thing that is with thee of all flesh, both fowl, and cattle,
and every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth; that they may swarm in the
earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.'
Note
Noach waited until G-D told him that it was safe to leave. At this point he
released slowly the animals into the wild. I assume that still the carnivorous
ones ate fish for a while from the drying waters. I believe that Noach and
family kept flocks and herds of Kosher Animals and Birds. The world was not yet
ready for the big herds of Africa and the hunt of the wild beasts. It must be
that grass had begun to grow at the lower altitudes for the elephants and other
herbivorous animals.
18
And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him;
19 every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, whatsoever moves upon the
earth, after their families; went forth out of the ark. 20 And Noah built an
altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and
offered burnt-offerings on the altar. 21 And the LORD smelled the sweet savor;
and the LORD said in His heart: 'I will not again curse the ground any more for
man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither
will I again smite any more everything living, as I have done.
HASHEM
reserves the right to punish mankind in the future for sins but not complete
destruction.
22
While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and
winter, and day and night shall not cease.'
The
will be seasons but it is possible that this was new as the earth might have had
12 hour days and night like at the equator and now the earth was tilted 23
degrees and somethings new called an apogee and a perigee. This the introduction
of seasons that did not exist before the flood. [A thought expressed in the book
‘In search of Noah’s Ark].
This is the first of the Mitzvos of the Bnei Noach.
2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, and upon all wherewith the ground teems, and upon all the fishes of the sea: into your hand are they delivered.
Similar to Adam HaRishon in that respect.
3 Every moving thing that lives shall be for food for you; as the green herb have I given you all. 4 Only flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
There is a possibility that Adam was a vegetarian and received from the primeval earth enough sustenance. Now Noah no longer had the good earth to grow things. He therefore had the right to eat animals. In fact every animal but now with their blood as we shall see.
5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it; and at the hand of man, even at the hand of every man's brother, will I require the life of man.
This is the second Mitzvah of the Bnei Noach.
6 Whoso sheds man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God, HE made man.
No murder and the third Mitzvah for the Bnei Noach. You cannot murder for you are destroying the living image of G-D.
7 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; swarm in the earth, and multiply therein.'
A repeat of the previous command or blessing but this is specific for mankind as the above was for all creatures including man.
8 And God spoke unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying: 9 'As for Me, behold, I establish My covenant with you, and with your seed after you; 10 and with every living creature that is with you, the fowl, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you; of all that go out of the ark, even every beast of the earth. 11 And I will establish My covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of the flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.' 12 And God said: 'This is the token of the covenant which I make between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: 13 I have set My bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between Me and the earth.
One day it may be so that the earth deserves to be destroyed and all mankind again. This time, one will see a rainbow and repent his ways. We make the blessing “KING of the Universe who remembers his Bris and is loyal to carry it out.”
18
And the sons of Noah, that went forth from the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and
Japheth; and Ham is the father of Canaan. 19 These three were the sons of Noah,
and of these was the whole earth overspread. 20 And Noah the husbandman began,
and planted a vineyard. 21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was
uncovered within his tent.
Three
people drank wine in the Bible and it was bad for them. They are Noach, Lot and
Shimshon. In each case the person got drunk.
…27
God enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and let Canaan be
their servant. 28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he
died.
You
would think that Parsha Noach ends here with his passing but a few other things
happened right before he passed away. In the year 1948 after creation, Avram was
born. He would be the new hope for mankind. In the days of a great-grandson of
Noach Peleg, the people wanted to make war with heaven and they started to build
a Migdal in Bavel to reach the sky. Our Sages, of blessed memory ask, “Wouldn’t
it have been more logical to build the tower close to the top of Mt. Everest
(actually on a very high mountain in their words and not a valley)” but rather
it was a tower to nowhere. It was a sign of stupidity that only foolish leaders
know how to build to keep the public busy. There is no indication that Peleg was
the leader but rather the equivalent to the spiritual leader in that generation
but failed to convince a wicked and foolish group that thought that they could
make war with heaven. In our days, many of us saw the atheistic Soviet Union
collapse like a house of cards. Since then, Russia has gotten smart and allowed
people to worship freely.
Now
Chapter 10 is the separation of the Nations, which probably will concern us
regarding Gomer and Magog, but our main concern in the rest of Beresheis
is:
11:10
These are the generations of Shem. Shem was a hundred years old, and begot
Arpachshad two years after the flood. 11 And Shem lived after he begot
Arpachshad five hundred years, and begot sons and daughters. 12 And Arpachshad
lived five and thirty years, and begot Shelah. 13 And Arpachshad lived after he
begot Shelah four hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters. 14 And
Shelah lived thirty years, and begot Eber. 15 And Shelah lived after he begot
Eber four hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters. 16 And Eber
lived four and thirty years, and begot Peleg. 17 And Eber lived after he begot
Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters. 18 And Peleg
lived thirty years, and begot Reu. 19 And Peleg lived after he begot Reu two
hundred and nine years, and begot sons and daughters. 20 And Reu lived two and
thirty years, and begot Serug. 21 And Reu lived after he begot Serug two hundred
and seven years, and begot sons and daughters. 22 And Serug lived thirty years,
and begot Nahor. 23 And Serug lived after he begot Nahor two hundred years, and
begot sons and daughters. 24 And Nahor lived nine and twenty years, and begot
Terah. 25 And Nahor lived after he begot Terah a hundred and nineteen years, and
begot sons and daughters. 26 And Terah lived seventy years, and begot Abram,
Nahor, and Haran. 27 Now these are the generations of Terah. Terah begot Abram,
Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begot Lot. 28 And Haran died in the presence of his
father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees. 29 And Abram
and Nahor took them wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of
Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the
father of Iscah. 30 And Sarai was barren; she had no child. 31 And Terah took
Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran, his son's son, and Sarai his
daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of
the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt
there. 32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years; and Terah died
in Haran.
They
were all spiritual leaders but with the exception of Shem and Ever failed to
keep up the G-D loving and fearing tradition. By the time Peleg was born, the
generation was spiritually weak and perhaps his peers influenced him in a
negative way. In the 9th generation after the flood at the time of
Nimrod and the making of Migdal Bavel, Terach was making idols. It was Avram at
the age of 3 or some commentaries say at the age of 40 who realized that for
such a creation, there must have been a CREATOR. This will be the foundation for
our Parsha next week.
Please
read this. It will change you. Trust me. Judith W.

----------
The story that I would like to tell you transpired some four months ago.
A few families had gathered in Park Hayarkon in Tel Aviv with our children. The younger children were playing on the jungle gyms, the older ones were riding bicycles, the women were talking and us, the men, were barbecuing.
I want to point out, and this isn’t really connected to the story, well maybe it is somewhat connected, that all of us who were gathered there are secular, but we respect religion.
Our group of friends has known one another since childhood and we try to head out together for a picnic once in a while, usually sometime in the middle of the week.
A religious young man came nearby to where we were having our picnic, he had a very young child with him and they were playing with a ball. We didn’t pay them much attention.
One of the guys in our group, Tomer, headed to the car park in order to get some extra pitot that we had left in his car. He came back rather annoyed saying that a motorcycle had parked very close to the door of one of his car. “I couldn’t get into the car,” he exclaimed.
Tomer is the natural-born leader of our group. He’s tall, strong, and has a very short fuse. He usually has a very big heart, until someone gets on his bad side, and this motorcycle certainly annoyed him. “Who does the motorcycle belong to?” Tomer shouted at the world as if there was a chance that among the throngs of people in the park the owner would be near enough to us to hear him.
Miraculously, the modest religious fellow asked, “Are you talking about the United Hatzalah motorcycle?”
Tomer replied. “Yeah, the big one that is red and white with a big box on the back. Why is it yours?”
The man replied, “Yes it is mine.”
Tomer growled, “So get off your backside and move it for God’s sake.”
The man answered, “Why do you need to speak like that. Speak kindly.”
“Speak kindly?” Tomer replied “Very soon you’ll feel the kindness of my fists without any words whatsoever. Now move your damned motorcycle before I come over there.”
The religious man looked at him, was visibly hurt by his words and remarked. “Would you like it if people spoke that way around your child?”
Tomer walked over to him menacingly. It looked like he really wanted to hit the fellow. But I and the other guys gathered and stopped Tomer mid stride. We told the gentleman, “Leave it alone. Please move your motorcycle and leave it alone. Tomer is not a guy you want to get into a fight with.”
In truth, I didn’t support Tomer’s actions and I believe that neither did the rest of our group of friends, but he was our friend, and this other fellow we didn’t know at all. According to our rules of conduct, that meant that we supported Tomer. The other gentleman, why would he interest at all? The gentleman took his son and walked away rather embarrassed. A quiet fell over our group. The silence screamed at us regarding what we all felt in our hearts. Why did Tomer have to embarrass this man so thoroughly, and why at all? So he could take the pitot out of the other side of the car, why did he have to treat this man so poorly. But this we only felt in our hearts. To Tomer, no one said anything. But we all felt guilty that we were part of the cause of this man’s embarrassment.
The man came back after a few minutes and continued to play with his son. What happened a few moments later changed everything.
Suddenly we heard a scream. Hagit had fallen off of the ladder on the playground. Hagit is Tomer’s daughter. She is six years old. She was playing with the rest of our children as well as dozens of others on a rope ladder that was part of a jungle gym. She simply collapsed from the top of the ladder and fell. All the other kids began screaming that something happened to her. We ran over to the jungle gym as fast as we could. Hagit simply lay on the sand, completely blue. It was clearly visible that she was not breathing.
Tomer ran over to her and began to shout, “Hagit! Hagit! Wake up! Help, Help, Somebody, help her! Someone call an ambulance.” His shouts were heard throughout the entire park.
Suddenly, the religious man appeared by my side and gave me his child. “Please take care of him, I’m coming back to help.” Before I could say or do anything he was gone as he dashed off in a crazed run.
It is hard for me to describe the next few moments. There were dozens of people who were watching a painful tragedy unfold and not a single one of them was able to do anything about it.
I can’t begin to explain the sensation of helplessness that we all felt. I simply can’t. And amid all this chaos and confusion, we heard an ambulance’s siren. We couldn’t figure out how an ambulance was arriving without anyone even calling for one. When suddenly the answered appeared before us. The siren was coming from the motorcycle, the big red one with the huge box on which it said United Hatzalah in bold words.
The young man who was sitting on it got off the motorcycle in a hurry, and with steady hands opened the box, pulled out a number of items and went up to the girl.
The whole situation was incredibly surreal. Tomer, the strong man who was always steady, was shaking like a baby, and this soft spoken man suddenly changed into the commander took charge of the situation. He began to give instructions to the gathered crowd. “You hold this… You bring me that… You run to the motorcycle and bring me the blue bag… Now tear it gently... “ Simultaneously, he called for an ambulance on his 2-way radio, “Send an ambulance to my location we have a case of a child suffering head trauma, not breathing who has lost consciousness.”
We looked at this man as a saving angel. He acted with professionalism, efficiency, and with a sense of purpose. Within less than a minute, Hagit, who was unconscious and not able to breathe began to move and cough. He succeeded in resuscitating her.
People all around began to cry. All of the women were in tears and many of the men as well. The man was focused, he continued to care for the girl and kept an open line of communication with his dispatch center. A few long minutes later that felt like an eternity, a stretcher arrived. A paramedic and two other men carried the girl to a waiting ambulance.
Tomer walked up to the young man and said, “I’m so sorry…. So very very sorry,” and broke down in tears. The man told him that “There is no time. Get on board the ambulance and go with your daughter It will all be okay.” He climbed on board and the ambulance left in a hurry.
We all approached the young man. We hugged him, and kissed him and thanked him profusely. We apologized profusely for our part in his embarrassment. I can’t express the outpouring of emotion that took place there. The man almost crumpled into himself due to the sheer amount of hugs and kisses he received. We were overwhelmed with emotion and we understood that something had occurred here that had never occurred to any of us ever before. We asked the young man for his name and number and promised him that we would keep in touch.
We headed to the hospital. Hagit had pulled through and was no longer at any risk. Tomer was shattered and pitiful. He was so embarrassed by his actions towards the man who had saved his daughter’s life. Tomer called him the next day, cried and begged for forgiveness. Tomer offered to pay the man money but the man calmed him down and said, “It’s okay, I forgive you.” He simultaneously tried to downplay what he had done. “We at United Hatzalah do these things every day. That is our reward. God forbid I should take even one penny from you.”
Tomer pressured him and pushed him to accept financial compensation. The man refused and said, “If you insist, you can make a donation to the organization, but I will not take a single cent from you.”
Hagit was released from the hospital three days later, but Tomer had not calmed down. His soul was burning. He told us that he wanted to throw a thanksgiving party and invite the young gentleman as the guest of honor.
He set the date for a week later on Saturday night and got the young man to agree to attend. He promised the man that he would make a donation to United Hatzalah as a sign of thanks. To this, the young man agreed.
This should be the end of the story, right?
However, none of us could dream of how this story would actually end. I recommend that you, the reader make sure you are sitting before I tell you the end of the story.
On Thursday night, the eve of the 23rd of the Hebrew month of Iyar, two days before the thanksgiving party for Hagit was set to occur, at3:30 in the morning, the young man was called to an emergency. His name was Effi Gadassi. While he was en route, on Menashe Ben Yisrael St. in Jerusalem, he was hit by a taxi cab while heading to save someone else’s life. He was killed on the spot.
You’ve most likely heard of Effi Gadassi, the United Hatzalah volunteer who was killed four months ago. He was the man who, with God’s help, had saved Hagit. The news reached us, and our lives were forever changed. Each and every one of us went to the funeral. We cried like babies. We held Tomer, who was close to fainting. I cannot express the pain he felt or the feelings of guilt that consumed him. We comforted him by reminding him that he had asked Effi for forgiveness and Effi had indeed forgiven him. But he felt that part of his heart had died with Effi.
However much we came back to find religion in the aftermath of these events, Tomer drew even closer to the religion that he had once overlooked. He now wears a very large Kippah on his head, he prays daily and he keeps all aspects of the Shabbat to its fullest. All because of, and in remembrance of Effi.
Tomer organized a fundraising drive amongst his friends and raised enough money to donate an ambucycle to the organization, the same kind of motorcycle that blocked his car and was used for saving his daughter’s life. The ambucycle will be dedicated in just one month’s time.
This is one story of Effi Gadassi, may his memory be a blessing. The story also represents the thousands of volunteers from United Hatzalah all of whom are doing holy work and without any regard for receiving benefit from it. As our story testifies, sometimes this holy work is not always looked upon favorably, and sometimes it even has its challenges and uncomfortable moments.. It comes with lack of sleep, and many times people even deride or chastise them. But they do it anyway.
May this story and the messages it contains be a remembrance for the dedicated volunteer Effi Gadassi and may they help his spirit rise and soar in heaven.
As
much as we would like to have a clean history and everything rosy, it is
impossible. Na’amah who was from the murderer Kayn and her father a
man-slaughterer per the Medrash. Yet she is the wife of Noach and a great …
grandmother of ours. 5:19
And Lamech took unto him two wives; the name of one was Adah, and the name of
the other Zillah. 20 And Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of such as dwell in
tents and have cattle. 21 And his brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of
all such as handle the harp and pipe. 22 And Zillah, she also bore Tubal-cain,
the forger of every cutting instrument of brass and iron; and the sister of
Tubal-cain was Naamah. 23 And Lamech said unto his wives: Adah
and Zillah, hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech; for I
have slain a man for wounding me, and a young man for bruising me;
So
we cannot change our ancestry as much as we would like. Even the Queen of
England and President of the USA cannot cover this up. Here is a letter to
people who wanted to change history according to their
whims.
Thanks

Rewriting
history according to contemporary views and prejudice.
This
letter is a response to Black Students attending Oxford as Rhodes Scholars
wanting to remove the statue of Oxford Benefactor, Cecil Rhodes. It should be
read on every campus in the U.S. as well.
Dear
Scrotty Students,
Cecil
Rhodes’s generous bequest has contributed greatly to the comfort and well being
of many generations of Oxford students – a good many of them, dare we say it,
better, brighter and more deserving than you.
This
does not necessarily mean we approve of everything Rhodes did in his lifetime –
but then we don’t have to. Cecil Rhodes died over a century ago. Autres temps,
autres moeures.* If you don’t understand what this means – and it would not
remotely surprise us if that were the case – then we really think you should ask
yourself the question: “Why am I at Oxford?”
Oxford,
let us remind you, is the world’s second oldest extant university. Scholars have
been studying here since at least the 11th century. We’ve played a major part in
the invention of Western civilisation, from the 12th century intellectual
renaissance through the Enlightenment and beyond. Our alumni include William of
Ockham, Roger Bacon, William Tyndale, John Donne, Sir Walter Raleigh, Erasmus,
Sir Christopher Wren, William Penn, Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA), Samuel Johnson,
Robert Hooke, William Morris, Oscar Wilde, Emily Davison, Cardinal Newman, Julie
Cocks. We’re a big deal. And most of the people privileged to come and study
here are conscious of what a big deal we are. Oxford is their alma mater – their
dear mother – and they respect and revere her
accordingly.
And
what were your ancestors doing in that period? Living in mud huts, mainly. Sure
we’ll concede you the short lived Southern African civilisation of Great
Zimbabwe. But let’s be brutally honest here. The contribution of the Bantu
tribes to modern civilisation has been as near as damn it to
zilch.
You’ll
probably say that’s “racist”. But it’s what we here at Oxford prefer to call
“true.” Perhaps the rules are different at other universities. In fact, we know
things are different at other universities. We’ve watched with horror at what
has been happening across the pond from the University of Missouri to the
University of Virginia and even to revered institutions like Harvard and Yale:
the “safe spaces”; the #blacklivesmatter; the creeping cultural relativism; the stifling
political correctness; what Allan Bloom rightly called “the closing of the
American mind”.. At Oxford however, we will always prefer facts and free, open
debate to petty grievance-mongering, identity politics and empty sloganeering.
The day we cease to do so is the day we lose the right to call ourselves the
world’s greatest university.
Of
course, you are perfectly within your rights to squander your time at Oxford on
silly, vexatious, single-issue political campaigns. (Though it does make us
wonder how stringent the vetting procedure is these days for Rhodes scholarships
and even more so, for Mandela Rhodes scholarships) We are well used to seeing
undergraduates – or, in your case – postgraduates, making idiots of themselves.
Just don’t expect us to indulge your idiocy, let alone genuflect before it. You
may be black – “BME” as the grisly modern terminology has it – but we are colour
blind.
We
have been educating gifted undergraduates from our former colonies, our Empire,
our Commonwealth and beyond for many generations.. We do not discriminate over
sex, race, colour or creed. We do, however, discriminate according to
intellect.
That
means, inter alia, that when our undergrads or postgrads come up with fatuous
ideas, we don’t pat them on the back, give them a red rosette and say: “Ooh,
you’re black and you come from South Africa. What a clever chap you are!” No.
We prefer to see the quality of those ideas tested in the crucible of public
debate. That’s another key part of the Oxford intellectual tradition you see:
you can argue any damn thing you like but you need to be able to justify it with
facts and logic – otherwise your idea is worthless.
This
ludicrous notion you have that a bronze statue of Cecil Rhodes should be removed
from Oriel College, because it’s symbolic of “institutional racism” and “white
slavery”. Well even if it is – which we dispute – so bloody what? Any
undergraduate so feeble-minded that they can’t pass a bronze statue without
having their “safe space” violated really does not deserve to be here. And
besides, if we were to remove Rhodes’s statue on the premise that his life
wasn’t blemish-free, where would we stop? As one of our alumni Dan Hannan has
pointed out, Oriel’s other benefactors include two kings so awful – Edward II
and Charles I – that their subjects had them killed. The college opposite –
Christ Church – was built by a murderous, thieving bully who bumped off two of
his wives. Thomas Jefferson kept slaves: does that invalidate the US
Constitution?Winston Churchill had unenlightened views about Muslims and India:
was he then the wrong man to lead Britain in the war?”
Actually,
we’ll go further than that. Your Rhodes Must Fall campaign is not merely fatuous
but ugly, vandalistic and dangerous. We agree with Oxford historian RW Johnson
that what you are trying to do here is no different from what ISIS and Al-Qaeda
have been doing to artefacts in places like Mali and Syria. You are murdering
history.
And
who are you, anyway, to be lecturing Oxford University on how it should order
its affairs? Your #rhodesmustfall campaign, we understand, originates in South
Africa and was initiated by a black activist who told one of his lecturers
“whites have to be killed”. One of you – Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh – is the privileged
son of a rich politician and a member of a party whose slogan is “Kill the Boer;
Kill the Farmer”; another of you, Ntokozo Qwabe, who is only in Oxford as a
beneficiary of a Rhodes scholarship, has boasted about the need for “socially
conscious black students” to “dominate white universities, and do so ruthlessly
and decisively!
Great.
That’s just what Oxford University needs. Some cultural enrichment from the land
of Winnie Mandela, burning tyre necklaces, an AIDS epidemic almost entirely the
result of government indifference and ignorance, one of the world’s highest per
capita murder rates, institutionalised corruption, tribal politics, anti-white
racism and a collapsing economy. Please name which of the above items you think
will enhance the lives of the 22,000 students studying here at
Oxford.
And
then please explain what it is that makes your attention grabbing campaign to
remove a listed statue from an Oxford college more urgent, more deserving than
the desire of probably at least 20,000 of those 22,000 students to enjoy their
time here unencumbered by the irritation of spoilt, ungrateful little tossers on
scholarships they clearly don’t merit using racial politics and cheap
guilt-tripping to ruin the life and fabric of our beloved
university.
Understand
us and understand this clearly: you have everything to learn from us; we have
nothing to learn from you.
Yours,
Oriel
College, Oxford
*Autres
temps, autres moeurs – Other times, other customs: in other eras people behaved
differently. One
cannot rewrite history to remove the murderers from our family tree. It is
actually the truth that sets one free.

Security who was very seriously wounded asked the two guards and a border
policeman to check this person. As they checked him, he opened fire with a
pistol at blank range. Three were murdered instantly, other border police or

Charedi
Protests by a small number of almost a cult in the community has people up in
arms. They are not registering for the draft since the law put in by Lapid and
then reversed and in turn blocked by the leftist anti-religious civil courts. My
family has registered and the two boys deferred temporarily. These Charedim
could be deferred but instead refuse to register resulting in jailing of the
refusers. A debate with taxpayers who serve vs them has occurred. Some want to
disrupt the Charedi Community by preventing them to go in or out before Shabbos
just as they disturbed us by this fringe bunch.
Here
is one comment on behalf of the majority and could represent my
grandsons.
There are
people that won't make a Shidduch with someone from Peleg. Yes it's stupid and
that's why the vast majority back Rav Shteinman, not only in Kiriat Sefer but
everywhere. The same way how the Neturei Karta is a very small minority and not
representative of Chassidim or Satmar. The same way as those that do price tag
are not representative of Dati Leumi. Not trying to excuse them, I dislike them
immensely. Just trying to put it in perspective.
What I would like to see is either the leaders under Rav Auerbach should be arrested or to find out who they are and protest at their apt.
