Views from the Pews - Purim Thoughts from Bezalel Kosofsky

I went on a Torah tour of the Central Park Zoo led by Rabbi Becher on Thanksgiving with Congregation Ohab Zedek. The tour started with a goose drinking grape juice while a fish was making kiddush, a bunny dipping apples in honey, cats wearing Shabbos hats, a bear wearing a kippah on his hair, a fly eating a kosher pizza pie, and a horse playing dreidel of course.  In the middle of the tour, I heard a kangaroo speaking Hebrew to fish speaking back in Yiddish and saw a cow shaking a lulav right now. The tour ended with a gopher blowing shofar and a gorilla reading a megillah.

RABBI SCHWARTZ'S PURIM NOTICE

Dear OZ Family,

The year 5781 conflates a number of anomalies that combine to make this a very rare calendrical year.  Purim on Erev Shabbos, The 10^th of Teves on Friday, Chanukah all together missing Parshas Miketz, Erev Pesach on Shabbos, Tisha B’Av on Sunday, and the very rare readings for the Haftorahs of  Miketz and Tetzave, make all these anomalies a once-in-a-century year.

Please read below for select Purim Halachos and Guidelines, and please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have. Thank you for your resilience in allowing us a responsible reopening during this time. 

Celebrate with OZ

When the month of Adar comes, the Talmud tells us to increase our Joy. What better way than participating in this year's Virtual Annual Dinner featuring the comedy of MODI. Please click HERE to RSVP.

Parshas Zachor

• Some Poskim consider that one may fulfill the reading of Parshat Zachor by hearing the laining on Purim. 

Machatzis HaShekel

• This Mitzvah can be fulfilled by donating HERE. 
• Based on the current stock price of silver (which is constantly fluctuating), to fulfill the maximalist opinion of fulfilling this mitzvah, an $18.00 donation will suffice, but “Kol HaMarbeh Harey Zeh Meshubach.”

Purim Mitzvos & Ta’anit Esther

• Taanit Esther is Thursday, Feb. 25^th and fasting begins at 5:24am and ends at 6:27pm.  We should preferably daven Maariv and hear the Megillah before breaking our fast, but if we have no access to hear the Megillah earlier, then daven Maariv before eating and then join one of the later readings. 
• This year, you must RSVP to attend our 'in-person' Megillah Readings. There will be social distancing in the Main Shul and limited space in the 'Sukkah.' Please click HERE for evening and morning times.
• For those who due to health concerns cannot participate 'in-person', we will host Zoom Megillah Readings on Thursday at 8:30pm and Friday at 11:00am - click HERE for free RSVP. There is a call-in option as well.
• Matanos L’evyonim can be fulfilled by donating HERE.  This year the need is great, especially in Israel.
• Shalach Manos must inlcude at least 2 food items to 1 person.  Every year I announce that we should concentrate more on Matanos L’evyonim than on Shalach Manos.  This goes doubly for this year.  Please exercise discretion in fulfilling this mitzvah. 
• The Seudas Purim should begin before Midday, and the custom is for it to be dairy so as not to impact on the Shabbos meals.

Please let me know if you can assist with delivering Shalach Manos to some of our homebound seniors and assist them with their shopping or even setting them up for Zoom Megillah Readings.

Special preparations for Pesach will follow as a Shabbos Erev Pesach brings its own special rules. 5781 continues to be an anomalous year in many ways. 

Kol Tuv,

Rabbi Allen Schwartz

Office Update

Over the last weekend a burst pipe in the back of the Social Hall leaked into our main office. The heavy snowfall largely prevented us from getting rapid assistance, but thankfully our staff quickly salvaged and cleaned what they could. Equipment was saturated, files were soaked, and the wall and carpet are in the process of being removed and replaced as we work with our insurance and mold mitigation companies. We appreciate your patience as we get the phones, computers, systems, and other items up and running.

Hashkama Minyan Dvar Torah: Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb

Systems of law not only govern human behavior but also express values and commitments.

The law written in the book of Exodus in the Hebrew Bible is no exception.

Here are some of its most important values and commitments. 

• Seek to show a generosity of spirit in caring for the vulnerable.
• Use your foresight and ability to control material reality to anticipate difficulties and dangers and then take precautions.
• Difficult deals must sometimes be made in order handle the challenges of a physically, economically  and socially imperfect world.
• Be steadfast and faithful in your commitment to G'd.
• Find ways to express that commitment to G'd both privately and publicly.

A few questions to think about : 

• Are any of these also ethical or religious values worthy of commitment independent of a system of law?
• Do we compromise them by  building them into legal systems that use force? 
• Is it important for a people to have a system of law that, in addition to controlling the  use of force and violence, also expresses its ethical or religious values?
• If yes, why?

Chanukah Safety from West Side Hatzoloh

Dear Neighbor,

Here are some quick reminders to keep you and your family safe over Chanukah!

Lighting the Menorah:

• Never leave Chanukah candles unattended!
• Place the Menorah on a sturdy heat resistant surface away from anything that can catch fire including walls, curtains, cabinets, wooden and plastic tables, tablecloths, etc.
• Light candles where they can’t be reached by children and where they won’t be knocked over
• Keep surfaces and surrounding areas clear from burned matches, wick trimmings, oil residue, and other debris
• Do not light “school project” Menorahs made from materials that can burn (wood, plastic, etc.)

Cooking Latkes:

• Keep small children away from hot oil and cooking areas
• Keep hands, hair and sleeves away from open flame
• Use extra caution when carrying hot food around children
• Designate ovens, stoves, and heat containing appliances as a “NO GO ZONE” for children
• Never put water on a grease fire, use a fire extinguisher and call the Fire Department

Wishing you all a Happy and Healthy Chanukah!
