    Bet Knesset Bamidbar Volume IX Issue 9 * 1 2 1 > 3 1 T l t O D T P 2 NEWSLETTER Elul - Tishri 5760-61 September 2000 FROM RABBI'S DESK HERSHEL BROOKS I I As we begin the New Year, we truly can see "What a difference a day makes!" or as we can say "What a difference a year makes." Who would have thought that one of our co-religionists would be nominated to be Vice President of the United States? I am amused at the media's reaction to the selection of Joseph Lieberman. So far, the pressing question among the "talking heads" seems to be, "What's he gonna do on the Sabbath?" It's revealing that someone's alleged commitment to worship and rest on the Sabbath can create such a stir. We live in a day when many want to post the Ten Commandments. Now, the prospect of a candidate taking the Fourth Commandment seriously, wanting to "remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy", has pundits questioning his commitment to the national interest. Amidst the outcry, I saw Senator Lieberman's rabbi on one of the news shows. He took a rather enlightened view of the Torah's prohibitions of work on the Sabbath. Basically, the rabbi argued the Law allowed one to break such prohibitions against work when human life and welfare were at stake. For example, voting on a key piece of legislation would pass this test. Such counsel by Lieberman's spiritual advisor reminds me of what happened in Shanghai immediately after the Second World War. The Jews who escaped the Nazis by immigrating to Shanghai were to sign for visas to immigrate to the United States. Unfortunately, some were required to come to the United States Embassy on Shabbat or lose their place to emigrate. The ultra orthodox Chassidic rabbis told the people to go. Personally, I think the four candidates from the two major parties should give politics themselves and us a rest one day a week. Such a Sabbath rest would probably make for a more reasoned measured and civil campaign. Probably, the only people who would miss a day's political campaigning are the news junkies and the commentators. The hue and cry from such folks reminds me of a comment made by a zealous football fan when his city lost its NFL franchise. "Now, what are me and my friends supposed to do on Sundays?" Well, there is an alternative. It is counter-cultural and out of vogue, but it has long belonged to the rhythm of life with G-d. It's called the Sabbath: a day of worship, rest and reflection. Here's hoping Lieberman doesn't cave to a culture thai finds such a commitment quaint, if not scandalous. May the year begin for all of us with love for our faith, pride in our heritage and, of course, with blessings of health and joy and nachas. Alma and I wish all of you a blessed year of 5761. HIGH HOLIDAY INFORMATION High Holiday tickets are sold out. There is a waiting list of members who would like to worship with us on one or both of the holidays. Many of you have bought tickets and will not be attending one or both of the holidays. If you will not need your tickets for Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur, please let Sarah Greene (256-1213) or Shel Kolner (838-7413) know. They will make arrangements for your refund and make the tickets available to those on the waiting list Please do not treat the buying of tickets as a donation if you are not planning to use them. There are fellow congregants who need your seat. Sliel Kolner 2 PRESIDENT SHEL KOLNER When looking for a subject to write about for this month, I recently rediscovered Mark Twain's article written for HARPER'S in September of 1899 - over a 100 years ago. In it he discusses the major impact Jews have made to the world, as he knew it then, in spite of their small percentage of the overall population. He wrote: "properly the Jew ought hardly to be heard of; but he is heard of, has always been heard of." He further wrote: "He is as prominent on the planet as any other people, and his commercial importance is extravagantly out of proportion to the smallness of his bulk." This came to mind when I received an e-mail response from CNN.com to a complaint I had about the way they listed Jerusalem on a weather map they used. I had received an e-mail from someone who suggested that CNN.com be told that Jerusalem is part of Israel - not part of any Palestinian state. I, along, with many others wrote to them indicating such. I wrote: "You should learn to use the world maps accepted the world over. Jerusalem is part of Israel and will always be." The response I received from CNN indicated that the weather page was changed to read "Jerusalem, Israel." They also added that the status of Jerusalem is the most contentious issue in the Israeli-Palestinian peace talks and that Palestinian and Arab leaders consider part of Jerusalem the capital of the prospective Palestinian state. They added that CNN.com is a nonpartisan global newsgathering organization. The importance of this whole diatribe is that we of "small bulk" can still be heard. Here we are 100 years after Mark Twain's article and we are still being "heard of." Others have come and gone (as in the past 5000+ years) and we are still being "heard of." Not only can we be heard of in a small way - getting CNN.com to change their position. But we can get an orthodox Jew nominated to be Vice President of the United States. Do you think Mark Twain would have envisioned this? I want to wish you all the Happiest and Healthiest of New Years and hope to personally wish you a L'Shana Tova when I see you. Service Set-up Janos Strauss and Irwin Haus, with occasional help from one or two others, have been setting up every Friday night service for the past couple of years. They also set up for the High Holidays and other special occasions. They would like the help of 2 able bodied people to help them set up the microphones, put up the mezuzah, the Mogen David and other miscellaneous items so we can all enjoy the service. The set-up and teardown take about 45 minutes and are really important. If you are interested, please call Irwin at 255-4458.
