In truth, we never expected the na tional response we got from your cover age, nor did we expect the volume. But thank G-dpeople are definitely outthere reading the Jewish Homemaker from cover to cover, and it is obviously an active readership as well.

May you be blessed with success and good health until 120 for your generous coverage.

BRINGING ATT’ENTION TO ADD

First ofall, let me thank you on behalf of all the parents, siblings, relatives, teachers, and friends of children with Attention Deficit Disorder hyperac tive and not who have finally been allowed the forum they so desperately need (Dec. 1991). Most ofall, thank you on behalf of all of our children with this potentiallydestructive disorder. Because of your recent coverage, these children are beginning to receive the attention (no pun intended!) they really need, es pecially in the yeshiva setting.

We have been deluged with tele phone inquiries and pleas for help from as far away as Chicago, Miami, and Boston as a result ofthe article. In many cases, the parent was told about our organization by a teacher or rabbi who read your magazine and then made cop ies for all the families he or she thought could benefit. As a matter of fact, the calls are still coming in from this ripple effect. I know that, in many cases, your own staff must have received the first calls, since our telephone number and address were inadvertently left out. For all those who still wish to contact us, we may be reached either by writing to the

“New Solutions for an Old Heart break” and “One Family’s Search for a Solution.”

Perhaps as the public becomes more aware ofthis disorder, and more familiar with its symptoms and the devastating effects on both ADD/ADHD children and theirfamilies, a strongereffort could be put forth to see that these children’s educational needs are met. To quote Mishlei (Proverbs) 22:6: “Chanoch lana’ar alpi darko Educate the child according to his way.”

These are regular children whose needs are a little different. We owe them a prompt solution, now that the problem has at long last been identified.

OME OLD MARRIED FRIENDS CAME UP TO ME A FEW

SMONTHS AGO AND, OUTOFTHE BLUE,ASKED ME, “HOW DO YOU GET YOUR KID TO GET INVOLVED WITH, AND ENJOY DOING, JEWISH THINGS?”

It’s not the first time in history one set offirst-time parents has asked this question, but I found the circumstances so strange that it hit me almostlike alightning bolt — and I don’t get thrownforaloop too easily.

Tobeginwith,while I pride myselfonbeingsomewhatofasuccessful armchair psychologist, my specialty has always been the so-called “normal” problems of “normal” young adults (such as ba’al teshuvah situations, proselytes, and those looking for a mate). One of the main reasons that I was not too successful as a school teacher was that I had a hard time relating to youngsters, especially small children.

But what unnerved me the most in this instance was the identity of the persons asking the question. Theywere not only Orthodox, brilliant, and talented, but they were both accomplished professionals in certain areas of child development.

“What in the world could they learn from me in such a field?” I wondered to myself. Yes, it was true that I was several years older than they, and that I had been Orthodox considerably longer. I could add to their knowledge of kashruth, of politics, of Chassidus, and perhaps of English literature. But how to bring up a kid Jewishly? While I had become a first-time father much later in life than most, their child was actually a few months older than mine, a pattern that was recently repeated with the birth of our respective second offspring.

Searching For A Role Model

BY IRA AXELROD

The Jewish Homemaker

f one wants to raise a child

“Jewishly,” the first thing he must do is look to his own parental priorities. Quite apart from child-rearing, one can observe the mitzvos while still missing a very important ingredient in Jewish living.

Butbe thatas itmay,myfriends were very serious about what they On Friday afternoon, if I had afew secondsto were seeking from me.

The more they talked, the more glance atjustonething, would it hetheTorah I understood why my opinion on this matter was solicited. My ~ portion or the sports pages?

While I am not so chauvinistic as to of the actual event. Their son, however, see my offspring as the second coming of did not often wear this garment or, at the Ba’al Shem Toy in saintliness or the best, did so only after giving his parents Vilna Gaon in learning (although either, a taste of World War III. orboth, would be quite desirable), I have

On the seems to be way ahead ofwhat is usually

expected ofa child his age today. Needless to say, I don’t hear simi lar reports about my friends’ boy.

I have to admit that I give them credit for translating what could potentially be destructive jeal ousy into an honest self-admis sion that something is drastically wrong.

Remember, we are not talking here about parents who are arro gant, unrealistic, or uncommitted to Yiddishkeit. They are among the most genuine and sincere individuals I know, and there is not the slightest doubt that Jewishly (as well as in every other way) they want the best for their children.

So we return to the original question: Why is my son performing, even excel ling, in several important religious cat egories, while their child is not? If one can puthisfingeron one ormore answers at all, it certainly cannot be done stand ing on the proverbial one foot; so, since first being approached, I have given a great deal ofthought to myfriends’ ques

tion, with the hope that I am not only accurately hitting the mark, but that many other readers with somewhat simi lar problems can benefit from this dis cussion.

Dairy-Free, Naturally.

Oto mind is the identification of parental priorities. Quite apart from child-rearing, I have always maintained that one can observe the mitzvos while still missing a very important ingredient in Jewish living. A person can keep Shabbos, kashruth, fam ily purity, and Yom Toy, can pray regu larly and even keep the rules ofmodesty, and yet still miss the boat philosophi cally. Each individual ought to ask him self/herself: “Am Ian Orthodox Jewfirst, with everything else in the world being incidental, or do I rush to other fields of endeavor first and just ‘happen to be’ an Orthodox Jew?”

ne ofthe first thoughts that comes

EIN FOODS

Everyone has their own reasons for giving up dairy products, but there’s no reason to give up taste!

This is a far more penetrating and meaningful question than may strike one at first blush. But let’s think about: What do I enjoy in life? What gives me plea sure? Is my greatest all-consuming pas sion to be a millionaire (rather than, say, a Torah scholar)? Do I look forward most to acquiring, and then totally enjoying, a late-model car, a fancy suit or dress, a Bermuda vacation? Or do I get greater thrills from helping an alienated person find the way back to his rich and true Jewish heritage? On Friday afternoon, if I had a few seconds to glance at just one thing, would it be theTorah portion orthe sports pages? Is a Saturday night at the opera more meaningful to me than sitting at a melaveh malkah?

It doesn’t take three Ph.D.’s in differ ent specialties of child psychology to know that even the smallest of young sters is usually pretty perceptive, and that they have a remarkably accurate sense of the value system subscribed to by their parents. No matter what any body may rationalize, the apple does not fall far from the tree, and if a child does not see his parents verbalize, act, and, most importantly, feel an intense and ongoing love affair with Yiddishkeit, be assured that he won’t, either.

One can enhance this argument by noting that it is axiomatic that, regarding Yiddishkeit, each generation is weaker

than the ones that preceded it. Thus, many of our ancestors fasted two con secutive days in commemoration of the destruction of the Temple, but few of us can get through even one day without moaning about our four o’clock head-

aches. I. L. Peretz’s classic Bunche Schveig found heavenly pleasure in a warm roll with a large pat of butter on top, but we summon the manager if the waiter is five minutes delayed with our third course at the local restaurant.

Maway start off babying our chil dren into becoming as spoiled as we are. Whereas it was for merly unheard of for a Jewish child to begin his formal Jewish educa tion any later than three years of age, today we wonder if, maybe, he needs anotheryearortwo to play, and not really worry about his Judaism until he is four, or even five!

aking matters worse, we right

On a different plane, the child senses hisparents’ double standards and deeply resents that it is they, with no input from him, who decide where to be lenient and where to be strict. How many of us have derided that second-generation of as similated parents whose universal mes sage to their offspring was: “We don’t keep a kosher home, we don’t keep

N~tun3I So~ U,P~ fll~OTf1UI~ parve

Shabbos, we don’t keep the laws offam ily purity, we have given you no real reason to feel your Jewishness. But Heaven help you ifyou marry a shiksa!”

Well, thank G-d, Orthodox children are not put in that position. But don’t you think they sense a contradiction when we tell them: “Your Jewish education can wait, but why aren’t you wearing your yarmulka; We’re not strict about glatt kosher or cholov Yisrael, but what happened to your tzitzis; It’s okay to vacation on summer beach fronts, but you must be modest to the hilt when you attend Bais Yaakov”? Daddy can dis cuss his well-seasoned appreciation of expensive liquors for hours with his guests, but never seems to have a tenspot when a collector comes to the door; or, even better than that, screams bloody murder at yeshiva tuition time. Your children may not always hear what you want them to hear, but believe me, they are watching and listening, and they see and hear plenty!

Ofound exceptionally useful in transmitting a Jewish feeling to our young charges is through music—Jewish music. Itbecame an iron-clad customwhen I drove my son back and forth each day to his day care center (a Jewish day care center, inci dentally, under Orthodox auspices) to sing different “nigunim” (religious songs). This is one of the most pleasant ways I found to teach children such important concepts as what should be theirfirstHebrewsentence, “Torahtzivah lanu Moshe, morashah kehillas Yaakov” (“The Torah that Moses commanded us

isaheritageofthecongregationofJacob,” Deut. 33:4). In fact, when I held my newborn son in my arms forthefirsttime, a few seconds after he left his mother’s womb, he heard me sing that tune. And so one of the first sensations he had in this world was ofhis Jewishness, Jewish music, and the basis of what the Torah expects him to know. Growing up, that nigun was always used as a calming influence (no less an “authority” than Shakespeare says that music soothes the savage beast). We eventually developed the practice of using that nigun on the Monday morning drive, just to start the educational week off properly.

Throughout the week, ifYom Toy was approaching, my son would hear many nigunim pertainingto the holidayduring our trips, with “Lecha Dodi” always be ing the staple for Friday afternoon.

But music is not restricted to travel ing. Both our sons hear specific nigunim before each course during the Shabbos meals every week.

SoftheShabbostable itself. Shabbos in general and the meal in particu lar can be a make or break situa tion concerning the direction of a child’s Jewish involvement. Countless numbers of concerned parents are ob sessedwith theroutinization ofthe restof their child’s days (go to the bathroom, brushyourteeth,getdressed,havebreak fast, don’t each lunch or supper too late, etc.), but comparatively few give equal weight to creating a predictable and comfortable pattern for Shabbos.

omewhatakin tothis is the concept

Yes, the child may well see that Shabbos for Mommy begins when she lights the candles and that everyone must wait for Daddy to come home from shul before making Kiddush. But then what?

The Shabbos table provides such a good opportunity for explainable and colorful ritual. My oldest son was a lot younger than three when he learned that it was most appropriate to pour the Kiddush cup to more than brimming, that every male guest received bread upon which to pronounce the blessing, that each course was preceded by a nigun. He knew that, as chassidim, we use “ritual” desserts (apples and beans)

RELOCATING?

as well as conven tionalones, andthat the correct way to end the meal is to sing “Shir HaMa’alos,” wash our hands (mayim achronim) and say the Bentching, the Grace After Meals. (It should be noted that some of these ceremonies and rituals are not law, and vary with dif ferent families and communities.)

Not so special, you say? Well, we have another strict custom in our house. It is a most rare occasion when a Shabbos meal does not have a minimum of one guest. One of the first words in He brew that my son learned, some where around his second birthday, was orai’ach, “guest.” Iwill never forget how disap pointed he once was, almost to the point oftears, when our expected guest was too sick tocome andIreturned home from shut alone! What an important con cept to instill in a two-year-old: that both our spiritual and material bounties are meant to be shared. I am convinced that these are lessons which will remain with my son for the rest of his life, and yet, verbal as I am, I do not ever recall specifically articulatingthem. He merely saw what my wife and I were doing and instinctively sensed and understood that we genuinely and deeply felt that here is the proper path.

Would you like an even better story?

My Rebbe (the Bostoner Rebbe, shlita) invited us to join him at a Friday night meal one winternight. This was when my.

older son was just about three and afew months before my wife began expecting oursecond. We lived a brisk five-minute adultwalk away from theshul, a 10-minute walk for my son. But we were apprehen sive about making him take that jour ney after a meal that

would certainly end well after 10p.m. We explained to the Rebbe that we would love to accept his in vitation, but could do so only on the condi tion that we stay over Shabbos in the quar ters above the shut. He agreed, so we woundupjoininghim forboth major meals.

At each of the Rebbe’s meals, I, as oneofthe “veterans,” was quick to perform the mark offealty and respect to the Rebbe by lifting up his Kiddush cup for him in the prescribed way. My son had never seen this be fore, but he was all eyes. The next Shabbos, strictly of his own volition, he

reached out his hands to lift my Kiddush cup for me! And he has been at it ever since. Again, with no verbal lessons, he only had to sense that this was the way Daddy acted toward someone who was older and more authoritative than he, so this was obviously what would be appro priate for him to do in interacting with me.

on the table. One ofthe guests thought he wanted a drink ofsoda, but I motioned other wise. Then, when the Rebbe started pouring out wine for all those who sought it, my son was perfectly posi tioned to get his share. This from a three-yearold with no formal in struction in the matter!

Like many other husbands and fathers, the pressures of work and community fre quently take many of my evenings, and even some of my Sundays. Themaintimelamseen by my children for more than a few minutes at a stretch is on Shabbos. I may wolf down my food during the week on the way to an outside obligation, but Shabbos is a time to sit at the table for hours, like a king, enjoying G-d’s bounty to the fullest. Again, the lessons that are brought home to the child are multitudi nous: Shabbos means leisure and Shabbos means plenty. It is light and entertaining, featuring singing. We are remindedofourresponsibilities bylearn ing. We can be thrilled and fascinated and excited by our guests, while their presence gives us the best of all oppor tunities to demonstrate our generosity.

I almost always daven in shut, but on those rare occasions that I pray at home, I make sure that my children see me in my talusandtefihlin.There are pictures of Torah sages throughout the house, and while we are not so insular as to eschew secularbooks, the presence of holy books is evident. My son has secular books and toys (carefully screened by us) that we read and encour age him to play with, but he also has many that contain excellent Torah messages. One of my son’s most prized presents from his third birthday was a tape we gave him of chassidic music.

nysimchas with which my son has

he lessons and atmosphere of

TShabbos carry over into weekly and more mundane matters. Shabbos is not only agift, but also a privilege and a responsibility. Much of what my wife does as a lead-in to Shabbos begins days earlier. The idea that as Torah Jews we need a sense of duty is also a silently transferred lesson to children. Daddy takes his responsi bilities quite seriously, as does Mommy.

The child also wants to “get into the act.” So what did my son decide, strictly on his own? He wanted to help serve the courses on Shabbos! Ofcourse, only now that he is past four are we trusting him even with his own miniaturebowl ofsoup (and even then with our hearts a little bit inourhands), butthelessdelicatecourses

and dishes have been coming via “child express” since he was about two. He considers doing this a carefully guarded privilege! Ifhe is playing when the next course is to be served, he is often asked, “Shall Mommy serve this course, or do you want to do it?” Invariably he opts for the latter.

Anotheractivity which he finds excit ing is to “help Mommy” in her periodic baking ofchallahs for a five-to-six-week supply. While modernconveniences may preclude its necessity, my wife, my guests, and myself (to say nothing of my son’s rapidly discriminating taste buds) all agree that Mommy’s are far better. To her credit, rather than seeing the baking of her own challahs as demeaning or archaic, my wife views it as yet another enrichmentoftheJewishwayofliving— a further lesson not lost on our son.

Ahad interaction invariably have a Jewish flavor. He rarely sees his Daddy in a more positive emo tional mood than when I am sing ing timely songs at a Shabbos meal to which an affianced couple has been in vited. He has been in shut often enough to know that the height of true joy is throwing candies at a bar mitzvah or attending a Shabbos Sheva Brachos su pervised by the Rebbe.

The Torah, too, has become symbolic ofjoy forhim. He is absolutely thrilled to go on his own to where someone is hold ing the sefer Torah during the reading of the Haftarah and give the Torah a kiss. He sees Daddy and everyone else on those occasions at which we dance, such as Simchas Torah, and hetries to partici pate.

Of the Torah and its way of life it is said, “It is a tree of life unto those who grasp it; happy are they who retain their hold thereon. Its ways are ways ofpleas antness and all its paths are peace.”This is the unspoken heritage which we are trying to transmit to our children, whose actions prove that such instruction can not help but succeed. This is my answer to my friends. Jil

The attitude that the Torah’s “ways are ways of pleasant ness and all its paths are peace” is the unspoken heritage which we musttry totransmit to our children.

It was in that atmosphere that my fatherundertook aseriesoftrips there, at the behest of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, shlita. My father was always a pioneer, and here was no exception: he helped maintain the vitality of the burgeoning movement.

Early this year I had the opportunity to continue the tradition established by my father. I was invited by the Agudas HaRabbanim of the Commonwealth of Independent States, Moldavia,andother parts of the former Soviet Union to help develop a kashruth organization there.

Most Orthodox rabbis in the former Soviet Union are affiliated with the Agudas HaRabbanim. Among them are Rabbi Zalman Abeiski, the Chief Rabbi ofMoldavia, andformerly the head ofthe Lubavitcher institutions in Kiryat Gat, Israel, who made great sacrifices in or der to move back to his native land; Rabbi Berel Karasick, the Chief Rabbi ofthe Ukraine; Rabbi Moshe Moskowitz, Chief Rabbi of Kharkov; Rabbi Berel Lazar, the Lubavitcher representative in Moscow; and Rabbi Shmuel Kaminetzky, the ChiefRabbi ofDniepropotrovsk, who Alma ,45, Concern in thatrole is the successorto Rabbi Levi Yitzchak Schneerson, zI‘1, the father of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, shlita.

SYMPOSIUM ON AGUNOT

AN URGENT CALL TO ACTION!

My last overseas trip had been strenu ous (see “Diary of a Kashrus Adminis trator,” Dec. 1991), but it pales in com parison towhat I encountered on my visit to the former Soviet Union. On my last trip I was able to rely on timely airline flights. This is not to be found in the C.I.S. The norm is a long train ride, one which can take up to eighteen hours for a relatively short distance.

By contrast, a “short” trip was a fourhour ride crammed in the back seat of a cold car, making our way over icy roads.

IYestablishments, but also en countered issues one simply would not have met in the U.S. A perfect example is the maca roni plant we investigated. Macaroni is an important food, since, in a pinch, it can provide a filling meal. Everything seemed to he acceptable with this par ticular plant, since the macaroni was produced from flour and water. How ever, we were then told by the plant managers that they could add whatever products we desired to the macaroni, including milk powder and meat!

Here we had a kosher product, but how could we insure that the product would remain kosher, that the next day the plant would not begin producing the macaroni with meat by-products?

Then there was the case ofbread. The difficulty was that dairy margarine or milk is often added to bread in the C.I.S.

According to halacha, dairy bread may not be eaten unless its shape differs from standard bread.

It is safe to ake a general statementthat in the Commonwealth of In epen dent States, there are no rules when it comesto food production. Everyone does what he p1 ases.

“And ifI perish I perish”

~‘Esther 4:16~

The Jewish Homemaker

Moreover, the use of milk itself pre sents a kashruth problem. In the .S., those whodo notdrink onlycholov Yisrael rely on the fact that the government permits only milk from kosheranimals to be produced. This is not the case in the Commonwealth of Independent States. In fact, it is safe to make a general statement that there are no rules when it comes to Russian food production. Ev eryone does what he pleases.

There was a further problem with the oils used as a release agent in the pans where the bread is baked. We could not be certain that these oils were of veg etable origin.

To top it all, there exists a significant problem of ne’emanus, of taking the in formation supplied by the plants at face value. Simply put, the plant directors will tell you what you want to hear. We had to devise ways of approaching the plant managers wherein we would re ceive factual information. It was in this regard that Sasha was invaluable. With his knowledge of the Russian language and mentality, Sasha was able to glean information we might otherwise not have obtained.

The end result was that we were able to certify two bread plants, a factory producing sugar-coated cornflakes, one making tomato products, an oil plant, and a factory that produces imitation coffee (real coffee is next to impossible to find).

Moreover, we were successful in set ting up a system to monitor the kashruth of these plants.

A further step was a lecture we gave for the Agudas HaRabbanim, where we spoke of the complexities involved in kosher certification. We distributed lit erature regarding how to apply for certi fication, the status of various ingredi ents, the obligations ofmashgichim, and so on. We were gratified by the enthusi astic response, as we have already re ceived inquiries from across the former Soviet Union.

As a result ofour efforts and the work of the various Russian rabbis, a new kashruth organization, called the Kash ruth Commission, has been created, con sisting ofa union between the OKand the Agudas HaRabbanim. I was honored to be appointed Director of the Kashruth

Commission. This agency is already in volved in monitoring kashruth in the former Soviet Union.

outside world. Needless to say, Jewish life was not exactly thriving.

hue our primary mission was

IYthe promotion of kashruth, we had the opportunity to investi gate other aspects of Jewish life. In this again we were merely following in the footsteps of my father, who, in his travels to Jewish com munities around the world, did not re strict himself to matters ofkashruth, but focused on their varied spiritual needs.

In Moscow I visited the Lubavitcher yeshiva and tested the boys studying there. I was quite impressed with their scholastic ability.

Wevisited the cityofDniepropotrovsk (a mere seventeen-hour train journey from Moscow), where I spoke in the synagogue to the community. Until two years ago, this was a “closed” city; one had to be a Russian citizen to enter. The net effect was to cut off the city from the

What a difference two years have made! Today Dniepropotrovsk boasts a shut, ayeshiva, and thelargestdayschool in the C.I.S. So large is the school, with 250 students, that it is moving to larger quarters next year, a four-story building provided by the government. There is also a mikvah. On Shabbos the syna gogue is very crowded. On Sunday, the day off in Russia, it is so filled that you cannot get in! The city has promised to return the main synagogue, which was confiscated during the Communist era, to the Jewish community.

Rabbi Shmuel Kaminetzky, the Chief Rabbi of the city and the Lubavitcher emissary there, and his wife Chanie are due the credit for reviving the Torah spirit in Dniepropotrovsk. And the same can be said of the rabbis in other cities.

I could go on and on describing this modern-day miracle, in kashruth spe cifically and in Yiddishkeit generally.

Let us pray this revival will lead to the immediate coming of the Mashiach. Jil

PU IL UI ANhJEWISHUNITY

GEMARA TELLS US THAT, WHEN WE

:ved the Torah at Mount Sinai, G-d lifted the

mountainandsuspended itabovetheJewishpeople like a barrel. In this manner He warned them that they mustaccepttheTorah. This episodelentanelement ofcoerciontoMattan Torah.

When the Jews later celebrated the salvation of Purim, we are taught that they joyously “confirmed” again what theyhad “previouslyaccepted” (Shabbos 88a). This refers to the relative lack of frbe will at Mattan Torah. In effect, the Purim experience was a reaffirmation of ourfree will acceptance ofthe Torah and all that this entails.

Jewish unity was strongly evident in the Purim episode. Some commentaries note that Haman’s arguments touched upon the point that the Jews were dis persed and divided amongst themselves. It was as an antidote to this disunity that Esther pleaded with Mordechai, “Go andgathertogether all the Jews” (Esther 4:16). It is for the same reason to solidify and ensure Jewish unity that the mitzvos ofcharity tothe poorandfood gifts to friends were instituted as part of the observance of Purim.

At Mount Sinai the Jews camped “as one person with one heart” (Rashi on Exodus J9:2). The nation was ready to accept the Torah from the One G-d, and so there had to be true unity and unanim ity. Thus, on Purim, when the Jews ac

cepted the Torah a second time, it was again necessary for them to attain a state of unity. Therefore, the Megillah uses the singular form, Vekibel, to tell us that the Jewish people “accepted” (Esther 9:23). And whereas Purim represents the consummate acceptance of Torah, the unity ofPurim is also greaterthanthe unity achieved at Mattan Torah.

In order for all Jews to be united as one, they must all experience true hu mility and self-sacrifice, to the point of self-abnegation before G-d.

There are two ways to attain this selfnullification. At the time ofMattan To rah there was a great awakening and revelation of love from G-d, which radi ateddownwardandengenderedthewell ing-up oflove and desirefrom theJewish people below.

By contrast, on Purim there was the opposite scenario. That was a time of hesterpanim, ofthehidingofG-d’s coun tenance. In that circumstance the Jews

had to awaken the attribute ofself-sacri fice on their own.

Despite Haman’s decree to kill the Jews, young and old, men, women, and children, the Jews showed absolute selfsacrifice, determined not to compromise their beliefs or to accept apostasy even in the face of complete annihila tion, G-d forbid.

This self-generated, supra-rational martyrdom of Purim engendered a radi ance from the Essential Being that was beyond the level of the intellect. This interaction was superior to the level reached when self-sacrifice is initially awakenedfrom Above, aswas the case at Mount Sinai.

In this context, the revelation at Mattan Torah was the beginning, while the reaffirmation of Purim was the cli max. Inasimilarvein,theunityachieved at Purim was much stronger than that at Mount Sinai because it was self-gener ated, and consequently brought the un qualified, ultimate, and absolute accep tance of the Torah.

Similarly, the expressions ofunity on Purim in the form ofAhavas Yisrael, love forone’s fellowJews, takes on atemporal form charity and gifts of food.

We find the expression “Yom HaKippurim ke-Purim,” that Yom Kip pur is like Purim. There is a connection between Purim and Yom Kippur, and in one aspectPurimis on aloftierlevel than Yom Kippur.

On Yom Kippur, there was a lottery (for the two goats) in the Temple, while on Purim, Haman used a lottery to de cide when to kill the Jews. The concept of lots, which lacks the predictability of reason, relates to self-nullification and martyrdom beyond reason, at the level of Yechidah, a level of the soul which is above the intellect.

Adapted from the works of THE LUBAVITCHER REBBE, SHLITA

20 The Jewish Homemaker

On Yom Kippur, the Divine service stems from the Yechidah ofthe soul and relates to the aspect of one, in time, place, and person. The Yechidah time is “Onetime in theyear” (Leviticus 16:34)

Yom Kippur. The Yechidah is in the Kodesh HaKodashim the Holy of Holies.The YechidahpersonistheKohen Gadol (High Priest), the Chosen “One,” representing the Yechidah of all the Jewish souls. Similarly, every Jew on Yom Kippur creates his own Holy of Holies.

Purim also expects Divine service on the level of Yechidah, beyond intellect, for the self-sacrifice must be ad d’lo yada beyond knowing. Both days are thus connected to Jewish unity. True unity is attained when one realizes how small he is, and that his soul is more important than his body. By virtue of their souls all Jews are brothers, having one Father. It is only the bodies which cause disunity.

On Yom Kippur all Jews deemphasize their physical indepen dencebyfastingandobserving theother restrictions ofthe day; consequently, all Jews are united, for their spiritual es sence comes to the fore.

On Purim, however, there is a loftier spiritual power, emanating from the in tense martyrdom and self-sacrifice of the Jewish people and permeating all their being, even the physical body. So on Purim we celebrate with joy and feasting and drinking ad d’lo yada. This means that the martyrdom of Purim the statebeyond intellect—is associated with drinking intoxicating beverages and eating rich foods which normally are pleasurable, for the entire being of the Jew becomes a vehicle for the supernal “to yada. “The expression of this is unity achieved by donating to the poor and sharing with friends. This brings unity to people who are “dis persed.”

This loftier source of self-nullifica tion and unity causes a strongerunity in reality. For the physical criteria which normally separate people are bridged, and the rich and poor are connected through the mitzvah of charity so that, as stated by the halacha, “anyone who stretches out a hand must not be refused.” Jil

These predilections affect ot only the style of money managemen’ that oc urs within a marriage, but also the nature ofcommu nication concerning that management. or example, in a marriage, money may rep esent “control.” us, a man who is insecure may try to hold onto his wife by overpowering her, keeping a ~ght eash on he spending ahul ty.

Similarly, the ex oenditure o money may be seen as an in ication of love. us, a man’s desire to make money may be intei oret d as a measure of his love for his fe, although, in fac this is not necessariLy so.

a person may feel tha the amount o money his/hers oouse spen s on gifts, omforts, and uxuries for him/he is a measure o his/her affection. Again, this is not necessarily he case.

Childhooo experiences with money issues are one factor that can affect the adu ten ency to spend or with old money. Wha one wants materially is often hiase y wha e (or she) pos sessed or lacked in youth.

Fo example, i often happens tha the son o impoverish d arents develops a grea desireto accumulate wealth and its tra pings. An even more common ex ample o this impact is the tendency to as ire to at eas the same leve of eco nomic status that was characteristic o

the pa rental home, and to desire the same externa symbo s of that status (e.g., a twostory home, two cars, gold jewel , if tha is wha t e parents had).

Also, a person’s drive orlack o drivetoearn money in adulthood can be related to his education and u bringing.

On the other hand, those w o are encouraged to develop their talents and skills in non-material c annels (such as orab study, artistic endeavors, in ellec tual pursuits) may attain success in their fieldswithout knowing how to orwanting

how much it costs to pay for “bounced” checks, how much money should be put into the account, howthey can arrange to avoid becoming overdrawn again, and so on.

She should not tell her husband that he“doesn’t knowhowtomanagemoney,” or that he is “abandoning his responsi bilities,” both of which are issues of personality. Doing so will more likely result in an argument than in a solution to the problem.

2. Look for solutions stay away from blaming. Again, the wife whowants toavoid havingbank accountsoverdrawn will be more successful if she asks her husband to brainstorm with her in order to come up with solutions than if she accuses him of mismanagement and blames him for the problem. This is true even when the problem is entirely his fault.

No one likes to be attacked. A person who has made a financial error feels badly enough without being criticized. Criticism, even ifwarranted, only makes him defensive, and possibly even hos tile. Therefore, work like a partner with your marital partner; look for solutions together, rather than assigning blame.

3. Listen and think before speaking. Take your time with financial discus sions. Give your spouse feedback on what he/she said before you make your ownpoint. Keep inmindhowyourspouse is probably feeling about the issue. Re spect his/her fears and weaknesses. Re member where he/she is coming from.

4. Build your spouse’s self-respect as you speak. Give your partner credit for goodideas. Acknowledge andencourage responsible financial behavior. Show understanding of legitimate fears and concerns.

Money is a significant aspect ofevery marriage. When we try to work with our spouse rather than against him/her, it becomes one of the stepping stones to greater intimacy and marital growth.

“Don’t do that, Judy! I’m just dying to meet this ‘Jim Bron.’ But tell me, don’t you think it’s a little strange for a man to join the food committee?”

“Not really. After all, aren’t most of the world’s greatest chefs men? Wait asecond. I hearfootsteps. That must be him now!”

To their utter bewilderment, a huge hairy beast filled their field ofvision, followed by a tall young man. Soonbothmanandhis“best friend” appeared in the doorway. The immense Irish wolifiound jumped up and placed its front paws on its master’s shoulders, licking him affectionately.

“Please don’t bring the dog in here,” said Judy.

“Why not? You scared?” asked the man.

“No, it’s just that there is an Aron Kodesh in this building and—”

“A what?”

“You know, the Holy Ark,

“I just can’t stand this guy,” thought Judy. “How am I ever going to work with him on the same committee?”

Thus began an association which was to span years ofhappi ness and discontent, struggle and triumph, griefand gratitude. Let’s step back a moment and take a look at the backgrounds of these two individuals who figure so prominently in our real-life tale.

udy Prince was born in Buffalo, N.Y., which boasts a sizable Jewish community

J(40,000 or so) but only about 60-70 Orthodox families. Judy was raised in the Conservative movement, attending temple on Saturday mornings, only to rush offto the mall or library as soon as services ended. She was a source ofridicule at public school; the girl’s father would not allow her to wear miniskirts, which were then all the rage.

In fact, Judy’s father put on tefihlin every morning, but never bothered to explain the significance of the mitzvah to his children. This, they assumed, was part of his morning routine, just like showering or shaving. Although the family kept kosher at home, the children soon gave it up, because without the Jewish education to back up Nissan and Judy Bron at the upsheren (third birthday the rituals, they seemed meaningless. hair-cutting ceremony) of their son Moshe. December was a particularly bitter month for the Prince children. Their

The result is a degeneration of the nervous system.

The illness is characterized by recurring exacerbations (aggravations leading toan attack) and frequent periods of remission. Each victim is affected differently; no two cases are exactly alike. While some people are only slightly impaired, enjoying long periods of remission and leading basically normal lives, others are more severely debilitated, suffering gradual paralysis and becoming confined to wheelchairs.

powers were eventually wiped off the face ofthe earth. How, he wondered, had the Jews managed to survive the follow ing two thousand years of injustice and persecution?

When, in 1973, after the Yom Kippur war, the Jewish Federation of Buffalo aimed toget theyoungergeneration more involved in Holocaust studies, Jim in vaded the library and took out every book he could find on that subject. He devoured them one by one, searching out each and every miracledescribedtherein. Rather than question the reasons behind this chapter in our nation’s history, he emerged with more faith than ever in the Creator.

This unquestioning faith was to hold him in good stead later, when he and Judy faced misfortune. Indeed, it was during this time, while delving into the Holocaust, that he met his future wife at the Hillel House and they had their debate about the laws of kashruth.

the proper method of donning tefihlin. Within a very short while, Jim now Nissan was keeping Shabbos and taking upon himself every observance that he learned.

Judy, on the other hand, was pro gressing more slowly on the road to Or thodoxy, although she and Nissan were seeing each other extensively by this time. But before long, her life style, her mode of dress, and most everything else about her changed.

B1974, they were both fully com mitted to Yiddishkeit and ready tobegin abayLs ne’emanb‘Yisrael. Nissan, once a promising pre med student, held a number of unsatis factoryjobs until 1978, when he became a mashgiach (kashruth overseer) for Manischewitz wine. Who would have guessed that, six years earlier, this same man had argued over the separation of milk and meat?

y the time the two were wed, in

Judy was unable to find employment in her field, social work, and under fi nancial pressure finally accepted a sec retarial job, until the birth of her first

child. Four more beautiful ba biesfollowed, keepingJudybusy as she raised them in an atmo sphere permeated with Yiddishkeit.

“Our kids are allfrum from birth,” she comments, the satis faction apparent in her voice.

Nissan, meanwhile, had lost both his parents in an automo bile accident. But he did not despair. Instead, he comforted himself with the thought that at leasthewould nowbe ableto say a proper kaddish for them, and that they would benefit from his newfound life of Torah.

Allwentwelluntil 1982,when Judysufferedamini-stroke. With one side of her face paralyzed, she rushed to the doctor, who diagnosed her as having mul tiplesclerosis—adiseasewhich involves the wearing away ofthe nerve sheath (outer covering of the nerve).

After receiving chemotherapy, Judy was sent home. Then, in 1986, disaster struck: Judy’s condi tion worsened, affecting her eyes. As a result, she grew blind. Most of the doctors concurred that the retinal nerves were destroyed and that her eyesight would neverreturn. But one physician offeredhope that some ofit might which it did. Although still legally blind, Judy can now discern large objects at close range.

According to most specialists, the severity of this attack should have rendered her wheelchairbound, but Judy felt that this would never happen.

Why was she so sure?

“After my first chemo, my husband took me to the Bluzhover Rebbe for a brachah,” she explains. “The Rebbetzin pointed tothe baby in my arms and said, ‘May you dance at herchasunah.’ It wasn’t till afterwards that I realized her words surely helped protect me from losing use of my legs.”

Still, the loss ofher eyesight was a terrible blow. A once vital woman president ofthe PTA she now spent days in her armchair, alone and de pressed.

“It not for my husband and daughter, I would neverhave survivedthose awfuldays,” shestresses.

Her oldest daughter, all of nine years old at the time, took overthe cooking, cleaning, and laundry. Her husband never lost faith, always encouraging Judy to shake offherapathy and begin living again.

At first, the thought of never reading again, or never driving a car to reach a destination indepen dently, was more than Judy could handle.

“Whensomethingpositive happens, we always say, ‘I worked hard. This is coming to me.’ But when the negative occurs, we ask, ‘Why did I deserve this?‘Ifwe think this way, wewill never be content.”

The Jewish Homemaker

“I asked myself, ‘Why?’ Whatterrible acts had I done with my ability to drive that I deserved to lose it? I drove my kids to Jewish schools, drove to stores to buy kosher food all mitzvos! Surely there are some awful criminals who deserve this affliction more than I do! This is something which cannot be answered.

“When something positive happens, we always say, ‘I worked hard. This was coming to me.’ But when the negative occurs, we always ask, ‘Why did I de serve this?’ Ifwe think this way, we will never be content.

“Anybody with a handicap ultimately learns how to deal with it. The Eibishter [G-d] puts obstacles in yourway, and you have to rise from them.”

Such is the commentary of a woman who counts herself “lucky” for not hav ing totally lost her eyesight.

“No, I can’t see what you mean, but I think I understand what you’re saying,” is her witty response.

Life is by no means easy. Judy has been told that hercollege degree, earned cum laude, is outdated and therefore worthless. Finances are tight. Yet the Brons are content.

“You know, it’s funny,” remarksJudy. “If we could go back twenty years in a time machine, and my kids passed my husband and me on the street, they wouldn’t haverecognized us, becausewe

were so differentthen. Butwehavereally found ourselves in Yiddishkeit. The kids are very secure in what they are. All we’re missing is a little ofthegashmiyus material comforts.”

And yet, this is actually the “richest” of families. They have lived through so much, sacrificing everything for their children and for Yiddishkeit. But they considerthemselvesfortunate. Trulythey personify the words of our Sages: “Who is the wise man? He who is content with his lot.” Jil

Othat they would sell their house, a beautifulfour-storystructure, and move to Monsey, N.Y.,wheretheir children could enjoy a stronger Jewish education. Although they sold the house for less than they might have wanted, and though they surrendered much financially, the spiritual rewards were worth it.

The youngsters soon settled in some of the finest schools in the area, where they quickly made friends. But for Judy it was twice as hard to begin anew. She suffered acute depression for two more years, until a change of medication (through a specialist recommended by the Squarer Rebbe ofBoro Park, Brook lyn, who is known for medical counsel) and a new resolve to turn her life around brought her out of her dark corner.

Today, Nissan Bron is a Nikolsberger chassid, and his children are indistin guishable from their peers at school. All the kids speak a perfect Yiddish, and they are a source of double pleasure to parents whose childhoods differed so greatlyfrom theirown.

FROM OUR READERS (cont. from pg. 4)

I would like to comment on the use of medication for Attention Deficit Disor der. It is important for your readers to realize that there areseveral medications not just Ritalin which can be beneficial in decreasing the targeted behaviors of increased activity, impul sivity, and distractibility.

AchildwiththeADD diagnosisshould be evaluated by a child psychiatrist in order to benefit from the full range of appropriate medications. Nevertheless, medication is only one component of a comprehensive treatment plan that must include all the modalities described in your article.

Joyce Ryd.ainski, M.D. North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center Manhasset, NY +

I am writing to you as a person with Attention Deficit Disorderandalsosome learning disabilities.

I just turned 18 years old, but did not graduatehigh school. Idroppedoutwhen Iwas fifteen. Schooljust did notwork out for me.

I can remember, when I was still pretty small, my parents tryingto sitwith me and get me to focus on my reading and other homework. I cannot describe toyouthehellweputoneanotherthrough, none ofus knowingjust what was wrong, let alone what to do about it.

This letter is actually being dictated, because my handwriting is not legible even today. The fine motor control prob lems that often come with ADD were, in my case, severe. But that is not why I am

writing to you.

It is very important for the parents and teachers of children with ADD to understand that the ADD child does not mean to be “bad.” It is not a deliberate attempt to mess up thelives ofthe people around him.

Self-esteem is such an issue for these kids, who almost never get the chance to be right, to win, to do it according to the directions, the first time around. It is crucial toletthese kids know thatyouare there for them, that you do not blame them, that you want to help, and that you will try to get them the help they need.

Kids need to know thatpeople care but ADD kids need to know it a lot more often, because they forget a lot, and because they also mess up so often, and they are often not sure that words like “I really like you” or “I love you” are sincerely spoken.

Tam a memberofJAADD, and I hope that we will be able to help other kids, early on, so that they will hang on and stay in school and ultimately build for themselves a future. My future is at risk because I was not able to stay in school and get that education, in spite of the many years my parents andfriends spent trying to get me the right help, once they figured out what was wrong.

I was very resistant, especially to medication.Maybethathurtmychances; I don’t know. Now I am an adult, basi cally, and Jam goingforhelp on my own. G-d willing, I will be able to get the training I need to make a life for myself. Please try to get help early for your children. It could make all the differ ence.

By TZIVIA EMMER

Adaptedfrom “The Kashrut Connec tion: Does G-dReally Care What lEat?” in Body & Soul: A Handbook for Kosher Living, published by Lubavitch Women’s Cookbook Publications.

Keeping kosher was once as natural to a Jew as the act of eating itself. But somewhere in the transition to moder nit the proper understanding ofkashrus was lost to a large percentage of the Jewish people.

It became popular to postulate that kashrus had been meant as a health

precaution, necessary only in the days before refrigeration. Modern technology made kashrus anachronistic to many of our co-religionists.

The contemporary mind finds it diffi cult to understand why Judaism makes such fine distinctions concerning basics likeeatingand drinking,functions which we have in common even with lowlier beings. And so the question is posed: “Why should G-d care what I eat? The important thing is to be a good human being. What does food have to do with it?”

This question did not arise for our great-grandparents in Europe and the Near East not because they were less

DOES G-D CARE WHAT I EAT?

intelligent thanwe, and notbecause they lacked refrigerators, but because they saw the world through Jewish eyes. They knew thatlivingaJewishlife meantmore than going to the synagogue or giving charity; they knew it meant performing the mitzvos ofthe Torah in everyday life.

TheTorah tells us to “know Him in all your ways” (Proverbs 3:6). Each of the commandments, many of which involve physical objects (kosher food, Shabbos candles, tefihlin, inezuzos), serves as a channel for the connection between a Jew and G-d. Each mitzvah performed strengthensthis connection. Byperform ing a mitzvah, the body is elevated and refined in the service ofthe soul, and the physical aspect becomes a vehicle for bringing holiness into the world.

Spiritual Nutrition

We can look at being Jewish, then, as a holistic experience, of which keeping kosher is an integral part.

Our great rabbis tell us that kashrus

has an even more profound role. It is arguably the most far-reaching mitzvah of all, because it has an effect upon the entire body, mind, heart, and psyche of a person.

The laws concerning kosherand non kosher animals are given in Leviticus, the third book ofthe Torah. No reason is given why an animal that chews its cud and has split hooves is kosher while an animal having only one of these signs is not. Neither is a reason given why cer tain birds and fish are acceptable while others are prohibited. There is no appar ent rationale for making a distinction between one kind ofanimal, bird, orfish and another.

The great commentator Rashi wrote in the eleventh century citing Talmu dic sources many centuries earlier that the prohibition against eating pig meat is one ofthose mitzvos which, hav ing no logical reason, must be accepted on faith alone. (So much forrefrigeration theories.) The same goes for other com mandments which seem incomprehen

sible: we perform them for no other rea son than that G-d commanded us.

Upon accepting the Torah at Mount Sinai, theJewishpeople spoketwowords which reverberate to this day in our consciousness and in our approach to fulfilling the commandments na’aseh venishma, “we will do and we will hear” (Exodus 24:7). This means that we ac cept the mitzvos as G-d-given, and that only after having pledged uncondition ally to do them do we seek to understand them. And yes, Jewish tradition some times gives us explanations not to provide the reason fordoing the mitzvos, but to satisfy our desire to understand as much as possible within the confines of human intellect.

The nearest thing in the Torah to an explanation of the laws of kosher ani mals is the statement immediately fol lowing the enumeration of these laws: “For I am the L-rd your G-d; sanctify yourselves therefore and be holy, for I am holy” (Leviticus 11:44). The Jewish peoplewere singled outat MountSinai to become “a kingdom ofpriests and a holy nation” (Exodus 19:6), and the kosher diet is designed to bring refinement and purification to us.

The food we eat is absorbed into our flesh and blood, directly affecting all aspects of our being. Birds of prey and carnivorous animals somehow have the powerto influence the eaterwith aggres sive attributes, and these are among the foods forbidden by the Torah. For a Jew, non-kosherfooddullsthemindandheart, reducing the ability to absorb concepts ofTorah and mitzvos. Conversely, when one eats kosherfood, one’s receptivity to G-dliness is enhanced.

The Soul’s Outlet Of Expression

The body is the only means through which the soul expresses itself. “Even as a craftsman cannot do his work without proper tools,” wrote the thirteenth-cen tury Kabbalist Rabbi Menachem Recanati, “so the soul cannot fulfill its task without a cooperating body; and as it makes agreat deal ofdifferenceforany precision work whether a craftsman pos sesses fine tools or not, so it is of great importance for the human soul whether the body consists offine or coarse mate-

rial. Light shines more brightly through a good lamp, and the same trees yield different fruits according to the soil in which they are planted.”

Some people are so attuned to the spiritual effects of kashrus that non-ko sher food literally does not exist for them. It is said that Rabbi Nachum of Chernobyl, a famous chassidic rebbe of an earlier generation, once could not see a glass of milk that was right in front of him because, as it was later discovered, the milk had been delivered by the gen tile farmerwithout having been properly supervised.

There are many examples to illustrate the effect of kosher food on the spiritual sensitivity ofJewish people. It once hap pened that a Jewish community in Egypt wrote to Maimonides (the Rambam), the famous Jewish philosopherofthe twelfth century, with atheological dilemma. The modern world-view ofthat age, Aristote lian philosophy, had caused many Jews to be perplexed as to their own faith. The Egyptian Jews turned to the Rambam for a philosophical explanation ofone ofthe fundamental principles ofJudaism. The Rambam himself had formulated these principles; surely the great philosopher would be able to provide a suitable ex planation.

Yet the Rambam refused to answer the letter. He explained to adisciple that a philosophical explanation would have been unnecessary had the people in this community not already contaminated their intellect through eating non-ko sherfood. The Rambam recognized that, had their souls not been contaminated, they would have had the ability to under stand theprinciplein question,andwould not have had to write him.

G-dly Sparks In Kosher Food

Chassidic insights based upon the mystical teachings of Rabbi Yitzchak Luria (the Arizal) explain why the influ ence of kosher food is so powerful.

We take for granted the fact that we must eat in order to live. But if the soul gives life to the body, why do we need external nutrition? Why do we have to eat? The Greek philosophers asked the same question, but did not find a satis factory answer.

“Man does not live by bread alone, but by the word of G-d” (Deuteronomy 8:3) is a well-known statement from the Torah. The obvious explanation of this verse is that man requires a spiritual dimension in his life and should not live simplytoeat,drink, and indulge in bodily pleasures. But the statement can also be taken quiteliterally: that it is not thefood itself which gives life, but rather the spark of G-dliness the “word of G-d” which is contained in the food.

The digestive system extracts the nutrients from the food, while the neshamah, the soul, extracts the G-dly sparks found in nature. These sparks are from a higher source in G-dliness than even the soul ofman. The Divine energy in every molecule of food is what actu ally gives us life. Kosher food has a powerful energy that imparts spiritual, intellectual, and emotional strength to the Jewish soul. The sparks in non kosherfood, on theotherhand, are rooted in an unholy spiritualsource. This iswhy non-kosher food has such an insidious effect.

Purim and Kosher Food

The holiday of Purim gives us the opportunity to appreciate the signifi cance of kosher food and the potential for disaster if this mitzvah is neglected.

The Talmud relates that in the time Mordechai and EsthertheJewish people in Persia brought about a Heavenly de cree against them because they ate non kosher food at the king’s feast. There were other mitzvos that they neglected, butkashrus was the element thatbrought about the decree of destruction.

Mordechai, who along with Esther brought about the salvation of the Jews, remained steadfastly kosher. And so it is not surprising that Mordechai was the one man who merited to be called Yehudi a Jew (Esther 2:5). As for Esther, the Talmud details herdedication tokashrus eveninthepalace ofKingAchashveirosh.

InthemeritofMordechai and Esther’s dedication to kashrus, the Jews of their time were saved by G-d. Letus hope that, in the merit ofour own dedication to this mitzvah, we too will be redeemed. JIJ

or years my family has been

telling me (in the nicest way possible, of course) that I’m not the most observant person in the world.

“Ma, you’re not the most observant person in the world.”

“Why, Estie,whateverdoyou mean?”

“Ma. I’m Yaakov.”

Okay, so who’s perfect?

And what’s the big deal anyway? So I don’t always notice when someone has had a hair cut. So WET PAINT signs are largely wasted on me. So I PUSH when I should PULL. So it’s not like it interferes with my life or anything.

“Oh, no?”

“Tell me one time, go ahead.”

“Well, how about the time you parked the car in that lot in Manhattan (that really big lot in Manhattan), and when you came back, you weren’t able to tell the attendants the car’s make, model, or year. They had to wait until every car in thelotpulled outforthe nightbefore they could find yours.”

“Now, how was that my fault? Did I not distinctly tell them the carwas red?”

“Yes, you did. But the car was blue.”

Okay, I admit that when it comes to cars I’m not very, shall we say, tuned in. They all look alike to me. I’m the kind of person who’ll stand around for five min utes tryingto force my Ford doorkey into someone else’s Chevy just because it happens to be sitting in the general area where I parked.

AtleastIthinkit’s where I parked. I’m not very good at noticing street signs.

“You’re not too wonderful at noticing people, either.”

Now, I know precisely to which inci dent my husband is referring, and it happens there’s a perfectly reasonable

explanation for that particular case of mistaken identity.

One night not long ago, we attended a lovely wedding in a town outside New York City. An exceptionally lovely wed ding (five-piece orchestra, exotic flowers, Viennese table) everything, unfortunately, except valet parking.

Well, it was raining pretty hard when weemergedfromthehall, so my husband thoughtfully suggested that I wait out front while he brought the car around. I pulled up my raincoat hood and waited

BY CHANIE FRIEDMAN

with five or six other women whose hus bands had gone offin performance ofthe same act of chivalry.

Before I knew it, my husband was back, I jumped in the car, and we were off. Given the latenessofthehourand the fact that I’d danced practically non-stop all night, it was hardly surprising that I was fast asleep before we rounded the first corner.

Well, you can just imagine my sur prise when I was awakened an hour later by a voice announcing our arrival home, and the voice belonged not to my hus band, but to a very dignifed-looking eld erly gentleman with snow-whitehair and

brought home the wrong child from kin dergarten (a perfectly understandable ~ mistake since this kid was wearing a snowsuit almost identical to my son’s except his was blue and hers was pink); or the time I spent forty-five minutes shopping in a neighborhood clothing store, only to arrive home with a shop ping bag filled with the sales clerks’ lunch orders (which explains why I got this sudden craving for hot pastrami on rye on the ride home); or the time I sat halfway through a bar mitzvah dinner before I realized I was at the wrong hail, on the wrong night, joyously celebrating a simchah with people I’d never set eyes on before in my life.

IfI, on the otherhand, wanted to make a case for the fact that I’m not quite as oblivious as everyone seems to think, I might point out the following:

1. I can spot a speck of dust at fifty paces anywhere in the house even if it’s under a bed.

atru1Fds~~ handlebar mustache. You can’t even begin to imagine his surprise when I pulled down my hood and he discovered he’d broughtthe wrong woman home.

Actually, he was quite nice under the circumstances. We had a pleasant chat on the longride back and discovered that he was from the same shtetl in Europe as my great-uncle Yossel.

Look it was late, visibility was poor, and I’ve already explained how I am with cars so I don’t see how any of this proves that I’m not observant.

“Okay, then how about last Purim?”

I’m ready for this one.

“Last Purim I was the victim of a rather childish practical joke.”

“Yeah, maybe it was childish, but you fell for itfour times.”

All right,judgeforyourselves whether anyone would have behaved differently in this situation. Last Purim, my hus band decided it would he riotously funny to dress up as a meshulach (collector) you know. black heard, a lange rekel (long coat), the works and come knock ing at his own door for a donation.

All I can say is that his costume was

very convincing, because without even bothering to glance at the authenticating “documentation” he was waving in my face, I reached into my pocket, handed over five dollars, and shut the door.

Disappointed at not having gotten a more satisfying reaction to his little per formance, my determined spouse went around to the back door and rang the bell. I gave him five dollars. At the side door, I gave him five dollars. Back at the front door, I began, at last, to become a bit suspicious.

“Wait a minute. Haven’t I seen you somewhere before?”

A large grin started to spread across his face.

“I know this isn’t yourfirsttime here.”

The grin grew broader.

“Now, I never forget a face. Wait... I’ve got it! You were here last month collecting for a new yeshiva in Poland!”

The grin vanished. “Oh, come on,” he groaned. “You’ve got to be kidding.”

“A new yeshiva in Russia?”

I suppose ifone really wanted to make a case for my failure, at times, to pick up on what is generally obvious to the rest of the world, one might point to the time I

2. I can, just by quickly thumbing through the pages of the daily paper, ascertain every store in town that’s hold ing a sale and exactly at what percentage the items are being discounted.

3. Merely by standing sideways in front ofa mirror, I can tell to theounce preciselyhowmuch weightI’vegained over the weekend.

And if I may be allowed the following observations:

While it is perfectly true that I am capable of spending hours in conversa tion with someone I care about and not have any idea afterwards what they were wearing, it is also true that I need only look into their eyes to know instantly if something is troubling them, or if, per haps, they’vegotwonderful news toshare. I may on occasion pour a cup of sugar when the recipe calls for a cup of flour, but I’m pretty good at knowing when a friend’s request for a cup of sugar is really an appeal fora good old-fashioned heart-to-heart. A mispelled word may sometimes escape my notice, but a kind word never does.

‘YAmerica, here are some ofthe responses we’ve gotten:

for her, having to be stuck with King Aschashveirosh.”

What Happened to Crazy Yosel?) was given the rough draft of a script by children’s writer Yaffa Leba Gottlieb. Gottlieb and Silverstein then sat down and discussed what makes a script turn into a great narrated tape.

eli, in surveys taken across

“It just seemed I don’t know more jazzy. It wasn’t preachy.”

“It was funny. I’ve never heard the story told so humorously before.”

“It really seemed Purimdik, you know? Cute, but spiritual.”

“Great tape, Ijust loved the actorwho played Haman; he sounded so-o-o vil lainous.”

“Well, I liked Esther. She sounded like such a nice Jewish girl. I felt sorry

“I bought the tape for my kids, but I enjoy listening to it just as much as they do.”

“Thenarratorisgreat. Hereally knows how to tell a story.”

“It’s such a great teaching tool for my class at school. I hope all teachers make use of it.”

“Simply one ofthe besttapes I’ve ever heard.”

The history of this tape goes some thing like this. Producer Simone Silverstein (Shabbos Treats that Grew,

They decided that it had to be as descriptive as possible, with characters who must really come alive. So Gottlieb went back to hertypewriter and came up with a revised version. The result was The Shushan Chronicle, a truly exciting script, based on the Megillah (Book of Esther) and supplemented by the Midrash.

The new script read perfectly. That’s when Simone asked her talented-butnot-yet-famous husband Avrohom if he would join her in the production. After reading the script, he agreed.

And so Simone began the second stage: hiring the best actors she could find to narrate the story. Having recently gone back to doing voiceovers for TV and radio, a field she had left for several years, she ran into many Jewish actors who, though not observant, were more than excited to work on something “re ally Jewish.” For these actors, the tape was notjust ajob, but a reminder ofhow good it is to be a Jew something they hadn’t felt for a long time.

Next Simone Silverstein hired the well-known songwriter Mirele Rosenberger to pen the opening song andtocomposeanoriginal musicalscore. Having alreadyworked togetheron other projects, Eli and Ohr and Crazy Yosel, the two women had developed a fruitful rapport.

Producer Simone Silverstein

So you might ask, “Why is this Purim tape differentfrom all other Purim tapes?”

The Silversteinfamily: Avrohom, Bruna, Simone and Moshe Chaun.

“She’s so talented,” says Simone in her bub blyway. Wejust talked aboutthe mood! wanted in a particular scene, and the next day she would come up with the most amazing music I had ever heard. She not only wrote the music, but she also wrote all the arrangements.”

Simone then needed someone to sing the opening song. Her hus band suggested Laibel ben Moshe, whom they had both heard perform live. They had fallen in love with his work and the passion he puts into his singing.

The final part came in puttingeverythingto gether. It takes more than just a good script and good actors to make a script come to life; sound effects, like foot steps, birds chirping, and winds blowing, are needed to make the au dience feel as ifthe story Simone Silverstein and son Moshe Chaim. is actually happening around them.

For this Simone left the creative deci sions to her husband Avrohom and their engineer, Moshe Antelis. “With the tape being almost 75 minutes,” says Simone, “there were a lot of sound effects to put in. I saw the two ofthem working so hard in the studio. They were in there almost three months, making sure that every sound was right and every music selec tion was placed perfectly.”

She comments, “Iwasn’t sure all their exhaustion was worth it. That was until I heard the final version of the tape. A masterpiece!”

She is radiant. “Kids and parents are going to love this tape. I’ll think they’ll want to hear this again and again, even when it’s not Purim. The story is time less, and so is this tape.”

Lost and Found Wallet

Afterthe success oftheirlast tape, Eli and Ohr, Simone Silverstein and Mirele

Rosenberger have joined forces again, producing what may be the best of their “David and Yehudis Friedman” tapes.

The Lost and Found Wallet is once again narrated by Simone herself, and the music and effects are expertly ar ranged by Rosenberger. The story is wonderful, truly teaching the mitzvah of hashavas avaidah, returning a lost ob ject.

David finds what appears to be an empty wallet, only to discover that it is not! He is ready to keep the wallet and its contents until his youngersisterreminds him of the importance of returning lost objects to their proper owners. That’s where the adventure begins.

David and Yehudis handle the task in such a mature manner that parents will appreciate the portrayal ofgood charac tertraits. Kids will really enjoy this tape, and not only for its message. Simply put, the tape is so much fun that they’ll never get tired of hearing it.

Purim is the traditional holiday of joyous feasting and high spirits spirits of both kinds! On this daywe read the Megillah, give gifts to the needy, and share sweets with familyand friends in a festive blend ofcamaraderie and shenanigans.

Over thirty different foods are mentioned in ancient writings, and traditional preparations forthe holidayvary from countryto country, with both Queen Estherand the wicked Haman inspiring symbolic Purim specialties. The familiar favorite hamantaschen, usually filled with a poppy-seed mixture or prune butter, represent Harnan’s tri-cornered hat, or perhaps his nose, ears, or pockets. Tahini Triangles, simple cutouts, are a Moroccan version of this idea. In honor of Queen Esther’s vegetarian diet, we’ve included nuts and seeds in many of the coffee cake and cookie recipes that follow, and the perfect Pecan Ring is shaped like Queen Esther’s bracelet. It isn’t too early to think about baking now and putting goodies away for carefree entertaining and giftgiving. However, the Chocolate Covered Fruit is best made the same day. With cakes and coffee cakes pre pared in advance and readyto cut into slices, and cQokies tucked away in freezer or pantry, it’s easy to fill your baskets or boxes with a selection of sweets.
