The Beis of Creation.

The Beis of Creation.: "construction of the Aron haKodesh (Holy Arc) was similar in the way that the embryo develops from three primary germ layers, which is the first significant aspect of, when the primordial or undifferentiated cells, beging to become different, and start building the three dimensional structure of living things.

The final though I had, which was beautiful in its utter simplicity, is this.

There is really no reason to be amazed, because both the frog, and the chickens embryos which we studied carefully and in fine detail under the microscope, had much in common with our Aron HaKodesh, in that they both were designed by G-d"

Bo: Hashem’s Hand

Bo: Hashem’s Hand: "“Take even your flock and even your cattle, as you have spoken, and go – and bless me as well!” (Shemos/Exodus 12:32)

Rashi comments; “And bless me as well – pray for me that I should not die, for I am a firstborn.”

The Sifsei Chachamim in his commentary explains that Pharaoh could not have been asking for merely a blessing since the words - “as well” – imply that he wanted to be included in another group – i.e. the Jewish firstborn who were to be spared.

Rather, he was asking that Moshe and Aaron pray for him that his life be spared."

Teaneck Parents Eyeing Public (School) Option | The Jewish Week

Teaneck Parents Eyeing Public (School) Option | The Jewish Week: "The Rosens are also, pending more information, planning to enroll both children in the optional Talmud Torah that is being developed by Hebrew Options in Public Education, a new nonprofit (pending 501(c)(3) approval) that is also helping to fund SACS.
While some question how much Judaic material an after-school program can cover, pointing to the failure of Talmud Torah programs in generations past, the Rosens are hopeful.
“This will be a little shorter, but we come from a home where we are proud of our Yiddishkeit and take joy in the holidays, so we feel we can reinforce” the Judaic learning at home, Melissa said."

Truth Seeking

Truth Seeking: "Why did Yskov choose to flee the scene with all of his children, property and wealth? What was the buzz about Yakov right before he left the epmployment of Lavan. Did Lavan's friends and family think the Yakov was a top notch worker, straightforward, direct and honest in his his dealing with his father-in-law, Lavan?"

Hurricane Irene and My Need for Control

Hurricane Irene and My Need for Control: "We are not in control.

But after the initial discomfort of that reality set in, I had another feeling.

I realized that, in fact, I was in control. Not of traffic, the future of my children, the financial markets or the environment, but I was in control of myself.

I was in control over how I responded to challenge. Would I be stressed or show strength? Would I spend the time doing something meaningful? Would I get frustrated and angry at the loss of property or convenience or would I be satisfied with what I had? Would I start to appreciate the “little” things like electricity and dry roads?"
