Corona Virus less deady than Flu, Parsha Teruma, Story, news


Fact: The Corona Virus is less deadly than the Flu


Professor Lass, former director of the Israel Health Ministry, stated that every year between a quarter to half a million people die of the ordinary Flu in the world! https://www.ifpma.org/global-health-matters/flu-can-cause-up-to-650000-deaths-a-year-globally/
Total for last season 2018-19 was 42,900,000 US cases with 61,200 deaths. Compared to 2017-18 48,800,000 with 79,400 deaths. https://time.com/5610878/2018-2019-flu-season/
Corona makes good headlines so far worldwide if China and Iran are telling the truth 82,000 cases less than 3,000 deaths.


Parsha Teruma


Last week, we had a lot of the 53 Mitzvos were only practical that were given on Har Sinai. This week after we read of the Safire Luchos with the Asera Dibros (the Safire Tablets with the ten Commandments) we return to the spiritual with the donations to the Mishkan.

25:1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying: 2 'Speak unto the children of Israel, that they take for Me an offering; of every man whose heart makes him willing ye shall take My offering.

The offering had to be from the heart, willingly and with love for HASHEM.

3 And this is the offering which ye shall take of them: gold, and silver, and brass; 4 and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair; 5 and rams' skins dyed red, and sealskins = giraffe skins, and acacia-wood; 6 oil for the light, spices for the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense; 7 onyx stones, and stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate.

These were rare and value items but when they ‘borrowed’ from their Egyptian Neighbors. Red dye and Techelles were special and rare. Egypt, being in Africa, would have access to giraffe skins from deeper in the interior up the Nile river. Today in Israel we do not see much Acadia Wood but Yacov planted the trees 230 years before on his way down to Egypt. The climate was slightly different and the trees had time to grow unlike what we see nowadays in the desert.

8 And let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them. 9 According to all that I show thee, the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the furniture thereof, even so shall ye make it.

I will show Moshe the plans and it will be up to Betzalel and Ohiliav to understand what HASHEM desired and build accordingly. Today the Temple Institute built in Yerushalayim similar items mentioned from the snuffdishes, incense holders, etc.


10 And they shall make an ark of acacia-wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof. 11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about.

Today there is in Yerushalayim a Teva build with the crown of gold and Cheruvim.

12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four feet thereof; and two rings shall be on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it. 13 And thou shalt make staves of acacia-wood, and overlay them with gold. 14 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark, wherewith to bear the ark. 15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it. 16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee. 17 And thou shalt make an ark-cover of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof. 18 And thou shalt make two cherubim of gold; of beaten work shalt thou make them, at the two ends of the ark-cover.

The modern model is built this way with the rings for carrying but it appears that it will be carried from the Temple Institute to the Mikdash and remain in the Holy of Holies. There is a possibility in case of war or other emergency to take out the Ark. Acadia is a hard wood and gold is one of the heavier metal and therefore the Ark and gold way a lot.

19 And make one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end; of one piece with the ark-cover shall ye make the cherubim of the two ends thereof.

Facing each other in peace and love from end to end.

20 And the cherubim shall spread out their wings on high, screening the ark-cover with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the ark-cover shall the faces of the cherubim be.

The faces of the Cheruvim were like that of small children and the wings covered them for modesty.

21 And thou shalt put the ark-cover above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.

Inside the Teva would be the Sefer Torah, staff of Aaron in the future from this point, brazen serpent in the future, a vial of Mann and both the broken and remade Luchos of the Bris.

22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will speak with thee from above the ark-cover, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.

Above the middle point of the Cheruvim will be the place of generation the prophecy of HASHEM. Either the Shechina or HASHEM will speak from there or give telepathy to the prophet or Cohain Gadol. I believe the following story is from Meseches Yoma. From my memory there was a Cohain Gadol who once said: “I am going to be taken from the world this year.” His listener wanted to know how he knew. “Every year, I enter the Kodeshei Kedoshim [holy of holies] with another ‘man’ by myside and he exits with me. This year he entered with me and did not exit.” In Daniel and Yehoshua an Angel is described as a man.

23 And thou shalt make a table of acacia-wood: two cubits shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof. 24 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round about. 25 And thou shalt make unto it a border of a handbreadth round about, and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border thereof round about. 26 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof. 27 Close by the border shall the rings be, for places for the staves to bear the table.

Now the Table and the Teva were made of Acadia. There was no need for a solid piece of wood or a certain length as in the supporting boards of the Mishkan. Thus even the average Acadia trees of today could easily be planed down to make boards that could be glued together and overlaid with pure gold.

28 And thou shalt make the staves of acacia-wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them. 29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and the pans thereof, and the jars thereof, and the bowls thereof, wherewith to pour out; of pure gold shalt thou make them. 30 And thou shalt set upon the table showbread before Me always.

The Shulchan of the showbread was not the Table we have in our kitchens but with layers. This is an image of what the Temple Institute built with real Cohanim and their outer garments. Note the head coverings of the Cohanim are in two different shapes. https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=SySvKvHP&id=9D53A8B181F1EF313174111933DAE06895FA0BCF&thid=OIP.SySvKvHP5fI37m7-VTcauQHaEK&mediaurl=https%3a%2f%2fpbs.twimg.com%2fmedia%2fCZoCPmcWYAET1Nz.jpg&exph=562&expw=1000&q=showbread+table+temple+institute&simid=607996587837424396&selectedIndex=8&qpvt=showbread+table+temple+institute&ajaxhist=0

31 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made, even its base, and its shaft; its cups, its knops, and its flowers, shall be of one piece with it. 32 And there shall be six branches going out of the sides thereof: three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candle-stick out of the other side thereof; 33 three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knop and a flower; so for the six branches going out of the candlestick. 34 And in the candlestick four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knops thereof, and the flowers thereof. 35 And a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, and a knop under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the candlestick. 36 Their knops and their branches shall be of one piece with it; the whole of it one beaten work of pure gold. 37 And thou shalt make the lamps thereof, seven; and they shall light the lamps thereof, to give light over against it.

The Temple Institute had a problem making a mold for the once piece Menorah of gold. The machining and work upon it was also delicate as all 7 stems had to be the same height with the knops at the same level. Note the equal-height, branches distance and the level of the designs very precise plus the bottom decorations. https://www.templeinstitute.org/menorah-gallery.htm

38 And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold. 39 Of a talent of pure gold shall it be made, with all these vessels. 40 And see that thou make them after their pattern, which is being shown thee in the mount.

I would assume that the snuffdishes would have some design similar to the design markings on the Menorah. The top vessel in the picture is the snuff dish for cleaning the Menorah. https://www.templeinstitute.org/history-holy-temple-menorah-16.htm

Up until now I have spoken of the physical appearance of the ceremonial items used in the Mishkan – Mikdash. But there is a hint even in the physical description of the Cheruvim mentioned above that shows spirituality. Their wings covered their faces or hid their faces because of modesty.

Physically we see beauty in gold, silver, bronze or brass, precious stones and the curtains of the Aron HaKodesh in a Synagogue all the more so the curtains in the Mishkan and those used in the Mikdash that took 300 Cohanim to Tovel (dip) in the Mikvah or wash.

The Kabbalah treats the noble metals and polish or unpolished crystals as having certain properties. Scientists tell us that the structure of the molecules produce certain vibrations. Kabbalists can tell us various hidden properties designed in these materials from the creation ex-nilo.

There is no accident why these stones and placed in such and such a position on the breast plate of the Cohain Gadol. One can see the breast plate and garments thanks to the Temple Institute and their donors.

All the various Sefiros of Kabbalah correspond with physical dimensions from string theory and things beyond or limited senses and three dimensional perspectives. HASHEM, who created these items, knows very well of their effect in both the lower world and the upper worlds.

26:1 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains: of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, with cherubim the work of the skillful workman shalt thou make them.

As with the metals and precious stones, these materials have certain physical and spiritual properties. The twining process of linen or goats’ hair was difficult and the later was done by women with patience of saints. Thread-thread had to be twisted at the tips and joined together and let me remind you that goats don’t have hair that is very long.

2 The length of each curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits; all the curtains shall have one measure. 3 Five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; and the other five curtains shall be coupled one to another. 4 And thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the first set; and likewise shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain that is outmost in the second set. 5 Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, and fifty loops shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain that is in the second set; the loops shall be opposite one to another. 6 And thou shalt make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains one to another with the clasps, that the tabernacle may be one whole. 7 And thou shalt make curtains of goats' hair for a tent over the tabernacle; eleven curtains shalt thou make them. 8 The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits; the eleven curtains shall have one measure.

Each goat or giraffe skin had to be thoroughly scrubbed and the linen processed or the skins combed. It is not stated if men or women washed and processed these items prior to making threads or twining the hairs.

9 And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shalt double over the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tent.

This is the Ohel Moed known better as the tent of meeting and the Mishkan itself.

10 And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the first set, and fifty loops upon the edge of the curtain which is outmost in the second set. 11 And thou shalt make fifty clasps of brass, and put the clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one. 12 And as for the overhanging part that remains of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remains over shall hang over the back of the tabernacle.

The Ohel Moed was made to the design of HASHEM. Would it be exact dimensions or spare dimensions to completely cover the interior so that no light, rain, dust, etc. could get in. [Remember the Mishkan would last from Moshe to the days of Shlomo HaMelech when the first Mikdash was completed.] “The pouring rains never doused the fire nor the wind move the column of smoke.” Perkei Avos Chapter 5 Mishnah 5 exact quote Chabad translation: The rains did not extinguish the wood-fire burning upon the altar. The wind did not prevail over the column of smoke [rising from the altar]. https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/682520/jewish/English-Text.htm

13 And the cubit on the one side, and the cubit on the other side, of that which remains over in the length of the curtains of the tent, shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it.



14 And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red and a covering of sealskins GIRAFFE SKINS above.
15 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle of acacia-wood, standing up. 16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half the breadth of each board. 17 Two tenons shaltl there be in each board, joined one to another; thus shalt thou make for all the boards of the tabernacle. 18 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side southward: 19 And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards: two sockets under one board for its two tenons, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons; …

These were boards from the Acadia Trees that Yacov planted 230 years earlier and they grew tall and wide in the strategic spots where he planted them that they supplied the wood for Mishkan for in nature in the wilderness there is not enough water that these trees grow like the Acadia in South Africa. But when planted properly in off-shoots of Wadis and other temporary rivers or need higher levels of ground water, these trees could thrive like their African Cousins.

13 And the breadth of the court on the east side eastward shall be fifty cubits. 14 The hangings for the one side [of the gate] shall be fifteen cubits: their pillars three, and their sockets three. 15 And for the other side shall be hangings of fifteen cubits: their pillars three, and their sockets three. 16 And for the gate of the court shall be a screen of twenty cubits, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the weaver in colors: their pillars four, and their sockets four. 17 All the pillars of the court round about shall be filleted with silver; their hooks of silver, and their sockets of brass. 18 The length of the court shall be a hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty every where, and the height five cubits, of fine twined linen, and their sockets of brass. 19 All the instruments of the tabernacle in all the service thereof, and all the pins thereof, and all the pins of the court, shall be of brass.

The Mishkan was 30 by 50 with a height of 10 Amos or 13.5 meters x 22.5 meters by 4.5 meters. The Ohel Moed was impressive for a temporary structure in the wilderness.


The Life and Times of Glickl bas Leyb
A 17th Century woman of the Ages by Judy Gruen 



Nearly 300 years after her death, Glikl has become an unlikely literary celebrity.

Our society is awash in published memoirs, something unheard of just a few hundred years ago. With one exception: a Jewish woman named Glikl bas Leyb, born in Hamburg, Germany in 1645. She took up her pen in 1691 as a recent widow “with a deeply grieving heart.” She began writing about her life, her marriage, her children, her faith, and her business dealings as a diversion from “a surfeit of worries, troubles, and heartache” that caused her sad, sleepless nights:
“My dear children, I began writing this, with God’s help, after the death of your pious father, since it afforded me some pleasure when the melancholy thoughts were upon me…”
Glikl had no intention of having these “seven little books,” as she referred to them once published. Her narrative is a remarkable document, a startlingly honest and exceptionally well-told tale by a keenly intelligent woman with a natural flair for storytelling. In this way, Glikl has left us a rare glimpse not only into one privileged Jewish woman’s life, but into the larger society as a whole, from how business dealings and disputes were handled to the complicated negotiations involved with marriage betrothals, to the ever-changing geopolitical sphere and how it affected Jews.
Frankfurt in 1612
While her original manuscript is lost to history, one of her sons, Reb Moshe Hamel, made two copies that survived. In the late 19th century, a descendent of Glikl’s named Bertha Pappenheim first translated her memoirs from Old Yiddish into German. It has since been translated into Russian, French, Hebrew and English.
Nearly 300 years after her death in 1724, Glikl has become an unlikely literary celebrity.
I had read an earlier translation of this work published under the name The Memoirs of Glukel of Hameln, translated by Marvin Lowenthal. But like many translations, much of Glikl’s original writing, particularly many of the stories and fables she included as moral lessons for her intended audience, had been edited out. Recently, Brandeis University Press published a new edition, called simply Glikl Memoirs: 1691-1719, translated by Sara Friedman. This edition is also presented with an outstanding and fascinating introduction by Chava Turniansky, professor emerita of Yiddish literature at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and an Israel Prize Laureate. Turniansky also provided the extensive annotations that confirm what Glikl claims about events and people about whom she writes. I cannot recommend this new edition highly enough. Not only is the translation more colorful and accessible to modern readers, but the inclusion of all of Glikl’s stories helps one better appreciate the full scope of her literary achievement.
While some aspects of Glikl’s life are unimaginable to a modern reader, many others are timeless. She worries about her husband’s health when he must travel for business and strategizes with him about how to recoup financial losses from a business deal gone bad. She grieves over the losses of several of her children, and anxiously tries to provide guidance to a naïve son who continually makes poor choices and requires frequent bailing out: “It is true that even during my husband’s lifetime we had worries here and there because of the pain of bringing up children; some of these can be told, others cannot or should not be told.” She reminisces about an earlier time when “life in those days was so much happier than it is today, although people did not possess even half of what they have nowadays – may they enjoy it and prosper.”

When she writes about the ever-present dangers that Jews lived with, or cries in distress over the endless plight of our people, we are Glikl, too.
Married at fourteen, Glikl gave birth to fourteen children, twelve of whom lived at least until young adulthood. She had eight young children at home when her husband passed away, including a baby, and it fell solely to her to raise, educate, and marry each of them off in dignity, as well as to provide for herself in her old age. Glikl was determined that all her unmarried children would also marry into other “respectable” families, which required substantial sums of money for both the dowries and initial support for the young couples.
Glikl and Chaim were among the wealthy class of Jews at the time. Like many other Jews locked out of many professions, they traded in precious gems, gold and silver, and loaned money at interest. Chaim and Glikl prospered greatly, though they also suffered debilitating losses from the occasional bad investment, or theft from a dishonest employee. Glikl writes about her business partnership with Chaim as if it was the most normal thing in the world for a wife to play this role. Her shrewd analyses of potential deals made her husband put implicit trust in her. On his deathbed, when Chaim is asked about any instructions going forward, he simply says, “My wife is in charge of everything.”
After Chaim dies, Glikl takes his place at the commercial fairs in Leipzig, Frankfurt-am-Main, and other towns a considerable distance, buying, selling, and trading. When her son’s poor judgement led his fabric business to fail, Glikl bought out his stock and went into the fabric business herself, successfully. During a disastrous, short-lived second marriage, Glikl lost her fortune due to her husband’s financial mismanagement. Despite her advancing age, Glikl does what she has always done: she rebuilds the business on her own and clears the debts she accrued through him.

She discusses money frankly and with a hard-nosed, practical eye. When writing about a complicated and protracted negotiation over the dowry amount for one of her children, she consults with the local rabbinical scholar and, getting his agreement with her position, holds her ground: “When he saw he could squeeze nothing more out of me. . . the wedding took place in mid-Tammuz, as respectable and splendid affair as we Jews can manage.”
Title page appended to the complete copy of the manuscript. Universitätsbibliothek Johann Christian Senckenberg, Frankfurt am Main.
Henry Abramson, Dean of Touro College in New York and noted historian, observes, “Glikl’s memoir is valuable for many reasons, but one of the most important is that it provides us with a rich picture of her economic activity--pretty much sui generis for a woman of the period, Jewish or non-Jewish. Her story also emphasizes the fragility of Jewish existence at the time: capricious decrees by local officials, spontaneous violence, and random abuse required a prudent focus on material security, particularly in liquid form, to be ready for whatever might happen.”
Glikl writes vividly and dramatically, not only about her personal life but about the riveting historical events in her lifetime. One of her earliest memories is of her father sheltering ten refugees who had fled Poland during the notorious Chmielnicki massacres, part of a political uprising by Ukrainians against Polish rule. The mass murder of tens of thousands of Jews is also known as “Gezerat Tach v’Tat,” the evil degree of 1648-49. Though the refugees were ill with infectious disease, Glikl’s father took them in – at great personal risk – and arranged for them to be cared for in their attic. Glikl’s grandmother, who insisted on climbing the stairs several times a day to help care for them, died as a result.
Glikl’s praise of her father knows no bounds: “Anyone who entered his house hungry left with his hunger satisfied. He gave his children, boys and girls alike, an education in both higher matters and practical things.” Indeed, Glikl refers to sitting in cheder, and it is such a tease that she never elaborates on what sort of formal education she had.
Outbreaks of infectious disease, including plague, were common and an ongoing source of worry. When Glikl’s four-year-old daughter Tsipora was believed by townspeople to carry plague, she and Chaim were forced to send her away with a maid for many weeks. Not only were neighbors fearful for their own sakes, but if the ruling Duke at the time learned that a Jewish home held contagion, it would be “a catastrophe” for the Jewish community as a whole.
Anti-Semitism was a basic fact of life that Jews had learned to work around as best they could. They were subject to onerous and discriminatory taxes. Their residency rights or rights to conduct business in a certain town could be revoked suddenly. In fact, when Glikl was only two years old, Jews lost the right to live in Hamburg and had to move to Altona, traveling each day back to Hamburg for business. (Technically, Jews had no residency rights in Hamburg at the time, though Glikl’s father had made some private arrangement allowing them to reside there.) Jews could be falsely accused of stealing from or murdering a non-Jew. Or, as Glikl relates in one of her long and dramatic episodes, a Jew could be murdered by a non-Jew and no justice would be served.
Glikl writes of an incident where a young wife named Rivka becomes convinced that a rough character had murdered her husband for the money he had carried with him. The husband had gone missing and no one had seen him for days. Other Jews cautioned her not to make accusations, but Rivka, whom Glikl describes as very clever, managed to get a confession out of a witness. Jewish community leaders finally convinced the local authorities to search the residence where Rivka knew her husband’s body would be found, but they were warned, “Beware, if you do not find the body, you are all lost, you know the rabble here in Hamburg. We won’t be able to stop them.”
When Shabtai Zvi and his messianic promises were revealed as a fraud, it was a crushing blow to Jews worldwide, particularly so close after the massacres in Poland. Glikl’s father-in-law had sold his home and packed his belongings in a trunk, waiting for the letter to arrive indicating the time had come to move to the Holy Land. Glikl writes:
"When I recall how young and old alike all over the world began repenting of their sins, as is well known, it cannot be described. Ah God, Lord of the universe, we were hoping that You, compassionate God, would have mercy on Israel, Your wretched people, and redeem us…”
Glikl’s piety allows her to approach this trauma as she does with all other bitter disappointments in her life – with continuing faith:
“Your people do not despair; they await Your mercy daily that You may redeem them. Even though he may tarry, still I await him every day.”
In her introduction to this new edition, Chava Turniansky observes that Glikl’s high level of literacy should not be surprising. In this early modern period, Jewish women wrote letters, literary compositions, and other correspondence. A thriving literature of mussar literature was written for and consumed by women, and the biblical verses and Talmudic references that Glikl includes prodigiously “were active components of spoken Yiddish at the time,” she writes.
Glikl’s memoir may have been meant for her family only, but thankfully, it has become an invaluable bequest to us all.
