EDITORIAL COMMENTS

THE NUMBERS COULD BE GREATER

In the past decade or so we have witnessed a remarkable change in the quality of Jewish education in the United States with the phenomenal growth of the Yeshiva Day School. We are indeed thankful that thousands of boys, girls, young men and young ladies have been brought under the roof of the Yeshiva k’tana. That so many are going on to Yeshivos Ge dolos and Kollelim is a cause for cheer to those of us who view these Yeshiva leit and lights as guarantors of Or thodox continuity. We do not pause to consider that the causative factors which brought many into the Yeshiva in the first place were mixed blessings integration of classes, disintegration of the public school together with the inspired reawakening to commit ment; we count our blessings: 70,000, 80,000, 90,000 of them in North Amer ican yeshivos, ken yirbu, and see the future of Judaism in roseate glory.

Let joy not be unrestrained. Consid er: in the United States there are 1,500,000 Jewish boys and girls of school age in the potential education al market of our Jewish schools. Of this number, 90,000 have been placed by the most optimistic estimates in nurseries, elementary level, high schools and higher institutes of learn ing which are in the orbit of Yeshiva Day Schools of wide religious spec trum. 6 per cent.

Where are the 94%?

If our figures are not wholly accur ate, we beg to be excused: there are no wholly accurate figures in a Jewish community where many hide their Jewishness or are not aware of it. But we shall be generous and assert that there are 300,000 non-Day-scholars 20%—who annually dip their toes in the puddles of Jewish lore at Sun-

day or weekday afternoon congrega tional schools. Value, content, dura bility and duration are not at issue for the moment. Only that 300,000 youngsters, 20%, are exposed to the “glories of the Hebraic past” for at least one hour a week, under Reform, Conservative and Orthodox Center auspices.

Add 6% in left to right Yeshivos plus 20% in “supplementary” schools, and we account for 400,000 souls or bodies. Subtract from 1,500,000 1,100,000!

Is it conceivable that 1,100,000 Jew ish teenagers and subteeners are cur rently roaming the byways of peren nial ignorance of the Past, the present and the Future? Perhaps our estimates are too high. We will introduce a Miscellaneous category that will c~t our roomers by 100,000; we are left with a total of 1,000,000 bodies with out soul. Appalling! Almost one mil Ion youngsters who will remain un tutored and untouched by the sub stance of Judaism. How utterly fan tastic!

Those of us who have been privy to discussions in educator circles, at con ventions and conferences, Board of Education meetings and workshops have heard the blame placed and seen the fingers pointing: Rabbis, prin cipals, teachers, parents, society anc’ a host of disembodied “theys.” A mil lion Jewish young ones running about unbridled and we indulge ourselves in the luxury of name-calling! It is a lux ury we can ill afford.

One million! One-sixth the korbonos of the holocaust we ourselves are kill ing off because no one really cares: because of a let-them-come-to-us-if they~want-a-Jewish-educ0tion attitude; because we are not concerned enough to reach out and bring them in; be cause of an our-way-or-no-way ap proach.

There is room in our vast United

States for a vable Jewish education al network made up of day schools and supplementary schools headed by men and women of dedication spirit and commitment who are concerned with our Future and are charged with the spark of inspiration. But no such network can be established without the realization that not every Jewish child is ready for or is capable of ab sorbing or undertaking a full two-track program of Jewish and secular learn ing on the elementary, high school and college level but every Jew ish child is capable of feeling the warmth of the Jewish heart and can and should be exposed to it. Hun dreds of thousands can and should be drawn to the threshold of observance. And any’one who says they can not or should not is arrogating authority to himself which is unconscionable. At best, he is taking the line of least resistance which has been costing Jew ish school rolls tens of myriads of students each year.

In our society, in the Jewish educa tional community, there is need for a hierarchical structure of learning, with the Bnai Torah serving as the aristoc racy. However, not everyone can be of the aristocracy, although it be hooves us to help them achieve this vaunted station. For them there is room near the top. And for others there is more room on the rung be neath, and still more room beneath that. There are persons of intellectual and religious quality whose predilec tions do not lie where we would have them lie; not everyone can be, wishes to become or should be a purveyor of Torah but everyone must be induced to learn commitment to To rah.

The social upheaval which helped swell Day School rolls in the U.S. is not for everlasting: children and par ents will not forever be running away

PUR TRADITIO

Why take a chance ruining a recipe with a “blended sugar” when you can use traditional Domino®

Domino is the traditional kind of su ar.. pure cane sugar, that’s been adding mechayeh to~ewish meals for years. So why take a chance using cheaper, blended sugars that contain dextrose?

bextrose makes some baked goods too dark, flat, even bland. And some cookies that are supposed to be crunchy come out soft when they’re made with dextrose. But Domino su ar works the way your recipes intended consistently, re~ably. It performs perfectly every time.

You can’t buy a more reliable sugar than Domino. It doesn’t contain dextrose. No wonder Jewish cooks have been depending on it for generations. Trust Domino. It’s pure tradition.

From the works of The Lubavitcher Rebbe

BERETSHIT

In the chronicling of creation, one detail strikes us with the force of mystery: why was light created before everything else, when there was nothing to benefit from it? The Rabbinical explanation only adds to the mystery for we are told that the light was immediately “hidden for the righteous in the world to come.” The Sicha explains the difficulty and elucidates the implications of the creation narrative for the individual and the conduct of his life.

the Midrash: “Just as a king wish ing to build a palace does not do so spontaneously but consults archi tect’s plans, so G-d looked into the Torah and created the world.”

In other words, by examining the order in which a man sets about making something which requires planning and forethought, we can learn something of G-d’s order in bringing the world into being.

First, he fixes in his mind the purpose which he desires his work to achieve. Only then does he begin the labor.

1. THE FIRST CREATION

“And G-d said, Let there be light, and there was light.” This was the first of the utterances by which G-d created the world, and light was the first of all creations.

But why was this? For light has no value in itself; its usefulness depends on the existence of other things which are illuminated by it or which benefit by it. So why was light cre ated when nothing else existed?

One cannot say that this was simply a preparation for the things which were later to be made (in the way that the Gemarah says that man was created last so that all should be in readiness for him) .For if so, light should have been created just before the animals (which can distinguish between light and dark ness) or at the earliest just before the plants (which grow by the help of light), on the third day of cre ation.

2. THE HIDDEN LIGHT

The Rabbis explain that the light made on the first day was “hidden for the righteous in the world to come.” But this is paradoxical. Since

the whole purpose of light is to illuminate, why should it have been hidden immediately after it was cre ated; the very denial of its raison d’etre? And even though the Rabbis explained why the light should have been hidden we still need to under stand why, if G-d foresaw this, He still created it at the outset.

A further comment requiring ex planation is that of the Zohar, which points out that the Hebrew words for “light” and “secret” are numeric ally equivalent. Numerical equiva lence is a sign that the two things are related to one another (for since things were created through the permutations of the letters of the Divine utterances, two things whose names are comprised of letters of the same value share a common essential form). But again we have a paradox: light is, of its essence, a revealed thing; and a secret is neces sarily hidden. How can two oppo sites share a common form?

3. THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE UNIVERSE

To resolve these difficulties we must consider a remark made by

This, as it were, was G-d’s pro cedure. And the purpose of the world that He was to create (a place where the Divine light would be hidden in the heavy shrouds of material existence) was that it should be purified and the pristine light of G-d restored. He sought ul timately, a “dwelling place in the lower world,” meaning that His hiddenness (darkness) be trans formed into a revealed presence (light).

Since light was thus the purpose of the creation; and the purpose is the first thing to be decided on in the order of a work, light was cre ated on the first day. The intention of all the subsequent creations was captured in that opening phrase, “Let there be light.”

4. THE IMPLICIT LIGHT

There is, however, an allusion to light in each of the subsequent days of creation. For each day’s work concluded with the pronouncement “And G-d saw that it was good.” And the word “good” alludes to light, as it is written “And G-d saw the light that it was good.” It follows that light was present on each day of creation, but how can this be, if light is the purpose of creation, and as such explicit only at the outset?

The answer is that purpose mani fests itself in two ways: (i) explicit5

SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER

ly at the start of a labor; and (ii) implicitly at every stage of the work, guiding each endeavor in pre arranged pattern, so that it con forms to the original design.

It follows that there were two aspects to the primeval light: firstly as it was revealed, as the purpose of creation, on the first day, prior to any other existing thing; and secondly, as it was felt indirectly (and hence only alluded to) on the other days, shaping remainder of creation towards its function.

5. REVELATION AND FULFILMENT

Now we can understand why the Zohar points out the connection be tween ‘light’ and ‘secret,’ and why the Rabbis said that it was hidden for the righteous in the world to come.

While a building is under con struction, its final shape is not apparent, except in the mind of the architect. Its ultimate form is dis closed only when the work is com pleted.

So with the world: only when it has been brought to its perfection by our service during the six thou sand years which precede the Mes siah, will its purpose (“light”) be revealed.

The light now is hidden, but in the world to come (when our world ly service has been completed) it will once again shine as it did on the first day.

But anything which is hidden, is hidden somewhere, Where is the light hidden? The Rabbis say: in the Torah. For just as an architect’s drawings guide the builder’s hands, so Torah guides us—through learn ing and the performance of the commandments in shaping the world to its fulfilment.

6. FROM WORLD TO MAN

Each person is a microcosm of the world, and its destiny is his. So that this order of spiritual history is also an order of individual serv ice.

‘Light’ is the purpose of each Jew: that he transform his situation and environment to light. Not mere ly by driving out the darkness (evil) by refraining from sin; but by changing the darkness itself to light, by positive commitment to good.

And his order must be that of G-d’s in the act of creation: First he must formulate his purpose. Immediately he wakes from sleep (when he is a “new creation”)-_in deed at every moment, for the world is continually created anew he must recognize that his task is “Let there be light.”

Then he must let this purpose be implicit in each of his actions— by aligning them with Torah, the blueprint of creation.

7.

DARKNESS INTO LIGHT

If light is the purpose of every created thing, it follows that it must also be the purpose of darkness it self. For darkness has a purpose, not merely that it should exist to be avoided (should present man with a choice between good and evil), but that it should be transformed into light.

And if a man should sometimes despair, in the oppressive darkness of a wayward world, of making light prevail, let alone of turning the bad itself into good, he is told at the very outset: “In (or, for the sake of) the beginning, G-d created. And the Rabbis translate it as: “for the sake of Israel, who are called ‘the beginning of (G-d’s) produce,’ and for the sake of Torah, which is called ‘the beginning of (G-d’s) way’.”

The world was made so that Is rael through Torah should turn it into the everlasting light of G-d’s revealed presence, in the Messianic fulfilment of Isaiah’s words, “The sun shall no more be your light by day, nor for brightness shall the moon give you light; but the L-rd shall be for you a light everlasting.”

The Numbers

(Continued from page 3) from into Day School precincts. Principals and teachers who have but to open their school doors to have chidren flock in—Would it were so!— are already beginning to learn the hard facts of recruitment and are feel ing less smug about their accomplish ment. 90,000 out of 1,500,000. Are there really 90,000 in the Yeshivos? And as many as 300,000 to 400,000 elsewhere?

Perhaps Yeshivos personnel will have to join forces and make friends with their erstwhile foes in the Talmud Torah for a concerted drive to wrest children from the streets - so they may be brought into the proper stra tum of Jewish exposure. Children must be attracted; they must be lured into the Talmud Torah or the Yeshiva Day School. They will not remain in the Talmud Torah or the Yeshiva unless there is a positive program to keep them there. Likewise in the Yeshiva Day Schools—some of which may not offer as much as many of us would like to see.

Yeshiva education, ideally, is the maximum and the best, It is the super lative degree. But without the positive and comparative degree there could be no superlative. We must be more positive about the positive and com parative degree. Let us take a leaf or two from the Lubavitch book and not have an all-or-nothing approach. Let the dedicated souls working for Tal mud Torahs pull children off the street, and let the Yeshiva Day Schools pull children off the streets and up from the Talmud Torah. Let our children be inculcated with a positive honest spirit of true Torah Judaism in the Talmud Torah and in the Yeshiva and we shall not have to fear that our best will be contaminated by “unkosher contact.”

Let the Yeshivos and the Talmud To rahs between them add 100,000 new children to the educational rolls in the coming year and 150,000 more in the next year. The numbers could be greater. Much greater, if we will work together.

THE JEWISH HOMEMAKER

“Dear Yisroel”

TORAH IS LIFE I SELF

Dear Yisroel,

At long last we’ve come around to what, irreverently, we might call “brass tacks.” You seem to be quite familiar, by now, with the attitudes that G-d demands of us if we’re to be “good Jews” in His (not some one else’s) sense of that description. At this time, I think we’re ready to discuss the Torah itself.

One thing you already know: it is a Book of Law, but it is, at the same time, more than that. It is our way of life. It is only if we adhere to its commands that our life has meaning. Our Sages tell us: The sinners are dead even while they are yet alive, while the righteous remain alive even long after they appear to have died. This means: Those who have fulfilled the call of G-d during their lifetimes and who have left behind their teachings from which others are able to draw moral and spiritual strength for genera tions to come, never really die. For their lives will forever remain living examples for those who will want to follow in their paths. But those who ignore the purpose for which they were created and whose lives are a constant contradiction to the will of G-d, are true failures, and of so little consequence that they might as well be nonexistent.

We know that the one place to which we can go to learn life’s true purpose and avoid being failures in the sight of G-d, is the Torah.

As you know, the Torah is not just a law book to which reference can be made in cases of doubt or un certainty. It is partly history. Now you might say that you fail to see

why historical accounts should have a place in a law book. But in this special Book of Laws they very definitely do belong. For the ac counts of the lives of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, which take up most of the Book of Bereshith and the beginning of Shemoth are not just biographies that make pleasant reading or good source material for research without any direct bearing on what goes on today. No indeed, they are meant to be understood, and should be understood, as por trayals of guides and modes upon whose lives we are expected to pat tern our own everyday conduct. We are to emulate them in our own day by walking in the paths of goodness and utter righteousness which they marked out for all future genera tions. We are told, in fact, by our Sages, that Abraham, Isaac and Ja cob observed the laws of the Torah long before they had been revealed to their descendants on Mount Sinai. This would seem a strange statement for how, you will naturally ask, could they have anticipated this whole complex body of laws and adopted it before it had actually been given? But the Sages explain it all in a very plausible and logical way. They tell us that, while the people of the rest of that ancient world just lived from day to day and cared little about higher things, our Patriarchs strove diligently to develop in their personalities the kind of true holiness which they knew G-d required of those who would serve Him with their whole hearts. Being exceptionally gifted men and women, these, our first

fathers and mothers, by dint of their own efforts, managed to attain an extraordinary level of spiritual per ceptiveness. They were convinced that everything in this world, every living creature, and even every part of their own bodies had been cre ated to glorify Him Who had made them all. And eventually, thinking intensively as they did about the function of everything round about them and of their own persons, they came to discover some of the com mandments which G-d actually was to give to their descendants only centuries later. In other words, the commandments of the Torah were not strange to them at all, but quite self-evident and logical procedures at which they could arrive by them selves, because to them it was quite natural that every part of their be ing, and every other creature, too, had been made, and given certain definite functions and potentialities, to glorify G-d.

From this statement of our Sages you can see what importance has been attached to the Torah at all times. All through the ages, there were thinkers and scholars among our people who wondered what the Jewish people, and the rest of the world, too, would have been like if there had never been a Torah. We are told that G-d Himself felt that the Torah was so vital to the wel fare of the entire world that He created the world only under the express condition that there would be a people to receive, accept and observe His Torah. When G-d final ly approached the people of Israel

SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER 7

CONTROLLED FOOD SYSTEMS

and offered them His Law, He was ready to destroy the entire world if Israel, too, would refuse to accept the Torah, for then the whole world would have had no reason for ex istence. (Sabbath 88a) For was not the world made to glorify G-d, and how could it truly glorify G-d with out the Supreme Law in its midst? Without a Torah being observed on earth, the world would have been a sorry place, without any of the moral codes that are essential to civilization. And the Jewish people would have been no exception to the general state of corruption in which all of mankind would have been. To make sure that we will not believe we’re superior to the rest of the world, the Sages have taught us that the Torah was given to us Jews not because we were better than the other nations, but because we were the most stubborn nation of them all. Neither we, nor our ancestors, had the spiritual greatness of Abra ham, Isaac and Jacob.

The true observance of the To rah, however, demands more than mere acceptance. It requires con stant study, not the kind of oncein-a-while “going over” that we might give to a textbook of litera ture or algebra or geography, but the kind of concentration that will make the Torah part and parcel of our personality. Our Sages felt very strongly about this, as shown in their comments to various parts of the Torah itself.

You will remember, of course, the law about the Cities of Refuge, where those who had taken a life without intending to do so could obtain shelter and remain immune to arrest. In the second chapter of Tractate Makkoth, commenting on this Biblical ordinance, we are told:

“If a student took a life by acci dent and, in accordance with the law, escapes to one of the specially designated Cities of Refuge, his teacher is to go with him and con-

tinue to teach him there. Why should this be so? Because the Law specifically enjoins that those taking up residence in a City of Refuge must be provided with all the ne cessities of life” (Makkoth 11).

Said the RaMBaM:

“. His teacher is sent with him, for the Torah commands that his life must be made secure there, and to those who seek wisdom and knowledge, a life without the study of the Torah is tantamount to death.”

At the same time, we mustn’t allow ourselves ever to fall into the error of studying Torah just as an end in itself, to show off to ourselves and to others how many paragraphs, chapters or verses we can recite by heart parrot-fashion and how many hours we have spent on this pursuit as compared to the time devoted to it by our friends. We must never lose sight of the ultimate aim and purpose of all this study which is nothing more and nothing less than to know G-d as much as is possible for the finite human mind. Our Sages tell us in Tractate Kiddushin (40:1): “They assembled and con cluded that learning is great because it is conducive to action.” Torah study just for the sake of study or rote reduces the learning of Torah to the learning of any other lesser subject. Only that kind of study that is done with the intent to put into practice what has been learned, thereby bringing us closer to our Creator, can be called “learning Torah” in the truest sense of the word. For it is only by diligently carrying out what we study in the Torah that we can make the Torah serve its true function, which is, of course, to help us control the yetzer hora within us and to refine us, to be able to fulfill our own purpose for which G-d originally placed us on this earth.

From he Persian Throne

On November 2, 1917, the British Government issued the famous Balfour Declaration. It is remarkably like another Declaration issued some 2455 years earlier by King Cyrus of Persia. The British Declaration reads: His Majesty’s Government view with favor the es tablishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may preju dice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country.

THE EDICT OF CYRUS

In Sefer Ezra, Ezra the Scribe relates that in the first year of Cyrus the King of Persia, the Almighty stirred up the spirit of Cyrus—in fulfillment of the promise made through the Prophet Jeremiah—and he issued a proclamation through his entire kingdom os follows: Thus saith Cyrus King of Persia: Alithe kingdoms of the earth hath the Lord, the G-d of Heaven, given me, and He hath charged me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whosoever there is among you of all His people—his G-d be with him—let him go up to Jerusalem which is in Judah, and build the House of the Lord, the G-d of israel, He is the G-d who is in Jerusalem. And whosoever is left, in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his place help him with silver and with gold and with goods and with the beasts, beside the free-will offering for the House of G-d which is in Jerusalem.

In response to the king’s proclamation, there was an aliyah of 42,360 Jews from the tribes of Judah and Benjamin together with Kohanim and Leviim, under the leadership of Sheshbazzar (Zerubbavel). It is esti

mated that the total number exceeded 100,000. Their first act after settling in the vicinity of Jerusalem was to reconstruct the altar and to lay the foundation for the building of the second Bais Hamikdash.

To the Holy Land they brought with them the gifts and blessings of the many who had chosen to remain in the land of their exile. And, in addition, King Cyrus returned to them the vessels and holy utensils which King Nebuchadnezzar had taken from the House of G-d in Jerusal,em about 50 years earlier and exhibited in his houses of worship in Babylon. All the items were accounted for as they were handed over to Sheshbazzar for restoration to Jerusalem: 30 basins of gold, 1000 basins of silver 29 knives; 30 gold bowls, 410 silver bowls of a different kind in all, 5,400 vessels of gold and silver.

Why had Cyrus seen fit to issue his proclamation?

The kings of Babylonia had had a policy of uproot ing the people in the lands of their conquest, removing them by force from their homes and their towns and transporting them to the wildernesses of Babylonia. Thus they made certain that there would be no rebel lion, no regrouping and gathering of forces by the de feated peoples to drive the conquerors out. King Cyrus reversed this policy, and instead of having large pock ets of discontent within his kingdom, he won the grati tude of the exiles by giving them the option of return ing to their homeland to rebuild their community. He did this not only for the Jews, but for most of the peo ples that had been transplanted into his vast domains.

It is merely that the Jews were more grateful than other subject peoples. They welcomed Cyrus of Elam and Persia as a great liberator and friend; their hopes and faith at a fever pitch thanks to the prophecies of Isaiah and Jeremiah—prophecies of which the king

was aware. He appreciated the support of the Jews, support which may have paved the way for his ascension to power.

The Jewish community in Jerusalem struggled and suffered. The task of rebuilding the Temple was not easy, and two decades after the proclamation of Cyrus was published, the leaders of the returnees Zerubba vel and the Prophets Haggai and Zechariah had to go to great lengths to get official acknowledgement of the original permit to rebuild the Holy Sanctuary in Jeru salem. Their efforts had been stymied on all sides, espe cially by the Samaritan colonists whose religious beliefs included both the worship of G-d and of graven images. When these Samaritans were not welcomed as Jewish brethren, they began to systematically sabotage the endeavors of the Jewish community, sending complaints to the local and national government, and putting an effective end to the restoration program.

Tatnai, the Persian Satrap and governor of the west ern provinces of Persia which included Judah, for warded the appeal of the Jews to the throne of Persia. In a letter which is reproduced in the Book of Ezra, the satrap stated the case of the Jews:

“Now, therefore,” he wrote to King Darius, “if it seem good to the King, let search be made in the King’s treasure-house there, which is at Babylon, wh ‘ther it be so, that a decree was made of Cyrus the King to build this House of G-d at Jerusalem and let the king send his pleasure to us concerning this matter.”

A search was made and a copy of the Edict of Cyrus was found in the royal archives. The reply of King Darius confirmed the contents of the edict.

The reply was clear and in unmistakable terms:

DECREE OF DARIUS THE KING

Now therefore, Tattenai, governor beyond the River, Shethar-bozenai, and your companions the Apharesa chites, who are beyond the River, be ye far from thence; let the work of this house of G-d alone; let the gov ernor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of G-d in its place. Moreover I make a decree concerning what ye shall do to these elders of the Jews for the building of this house of G-d; that of the king’s goods, even of the tribute beyond the River, expenses be given with all diligence unto these men, that they be not hindered. And that which they have need of, both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs, for burnt-offer ings to the G-d of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the word of the priests that are at Jeru salem, let it be given them day by day without fail; that they may offer sacrifices of sweet savour unto the G-d of heaven, and pray for the life of the king, and of his sons.

Also I have made a decree, that whosoever shall alter this word, let a beam be pulled out from his house, and let him be lifted up and fastened thereon; and let his house be made a dunghill for this; and may the G-d that hath caused His name to dwell there over throw all kings and peoples, that shall put forth their hand to alter the same, to destroy this house of G-d which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be done with all diligence.

In the year 515 B.C.E. the task of rebuilding the Temple was completed, in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.

And the children of Israel, the priests and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of G-d with joy.

About 70 years later, in 458 B.C.E., Ezra the Scribe of whom the Talmud asserts that “when the Torah was forgotten from Israel, Ezra came up from Babylon and established it,” arrived in Jerusalem armed with a grant of special powers from King Artaxerxes. This letter was crucial to the shaping of the Jewish future, and as de cisive as the proclamations of Cyrus and of Darius. The Edict of Cyrus had provided the initial impetus to the restoration of the Temple and to the Return; the charter of Darius had made it possible for the returnees to complete the rebuilding of the Temple. The decree of King Artaxerxes laid the legal foundations of the new Jewish Commonwealth.

THE CHARTER OF ARTAXERXES

Artaxerxes, King of Kings, unto Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of the G-d of heaven, and so forth. And now I make a decree, that all they of the peo ple of Israel and their priests and the Levites, in my realm, that are minded of their own free will to go with thee to Jerusalem, go. Forasinuch as thou art sent of the King and his seven counsellors, to inquire concern ing Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of thy G-d which is in thy hand; and to carry the silver and gold which the King and his counsellors have freely offered unto the G-~ of Israel, whose habitation is in Jerusalem, and all the silver and gold that thou shalt find in all the province of Babylon, with the freewill offering of the people, and of the priests, offering will ingly for the house of their G-d which is in Jerusalem; therefore thou shalt with all diligence buy with this money bullocks, rams, lambs, with their meal offerings and their drink offerings, and shalt offer them upon the altar of the house of your G-d which is in Jerusalem. And whatsoever shall seem good to thee and to thy brethren to do with the rest of the silver and gold, that

do ye after the will of your G-d. And the vessels that are given thee for the service of the hou~e of thy G-d, deliver thou before the G-d of Jerusalem. And what soever more shall be needful for the house of thy G-d, which thou shalt have occasio~i to bestow, bestow it out of the King’s treasure-house. And I, even 1, Artaxerxes the King, do make a decree to all the treasurers that are beyond the River, that whatsoever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of G-d of heaven, shall require of you, it be done with all diligence, unto a hundred tal ents of silver, and to a hundred measures of wheat, and to a hundred barhc of wine, and to a hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing how much. Whatsoever is commanded by the G-d of heaven; for why should there be wrath against the realm of the King and his sons? Also we announce to you, that touching any of the priests and Levites, the singers, porters, Nethinim, or servants of this house of G-d, it shall not be lawful to impose tribute, impost, or toll, upon them.

And thou, Ezra, after the wisdom of thy G-d that is in thy hand, appoint magistrates and judges, who may judge all the peQple that are beyond the River, all such as know the laws of thy G-d; and teach ye him that knoweth them not. And whosoever will not do the law of thy G-d, and the law of the King, let judgment be executed upon him with all diligence, whether it be unto death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment.

Ezra added to this letter a most eloquent postscript: ‘Blessed be the Lord, the G-d of our fathers, who hath put such a thing as this in the king’s heart, to beautify the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem, and hath extended mercy unto me before the king, and his coun sellors, and before all the king’s mighty princes. And I was strengthened according to the hand of the Lord my G-d upon me, and I gathered together out of Israel chief men to go up with me’ (Ezra VII. 27, 28).

Ezra the Scribe’s mission was to bring to the new community spiritual and physical reinforcement. He had absolute control in all religious matters. His cara van totaled 1,596 men, plus kohanim and other offi cials. On his arrival he was shocked by the moral deterioration which had set in, and the extent to which intermarriage had become the rule rather than the ex ception. Shocked and horrified, he went into immediate action and initiated a series of reforms that guaranteed the purity of Judaism.

Many of these reforms are detailed in the Book of Nehemiah.

Time has seen many so-called Jews scoff at these reforms. With the scoffing of the twentieth century has come the moral deterioration of today’s society. Our generation requires another Ezra. But lacking that, per haps each of us in our generation can stir a tiny spark of Ezra within ourselves.

/.. THE JEWISH HOMEMAKER

SOVIET JEWRY’ TheProblem ofNoschri (Drop0uts)

The issue of the Noschrim has been the subject of much debate and considerablemisinterpretation. From the outset, let it be stated unequiv ocally concerning the Noschrim that the Soviet Union has shown no in terest whatsoever in the fate of those Jews who were granted exit visas. Moreover, contrary to popular expectations, the Soviet Union evi denced no disposition to slow the pace of emigration on the grounds that many Jews did not go to Israel but settled instead in the United States or in Western Europe. In ternal disagreement among the Jews themselves, such as the dispute be tween Israel (which objected ve hemently to their going to the United States instead of coming to Israel) and American Jewry (which insisted that they have the right to settle wherever they wish) in no way affected the exodus of Jews from the Soviet Union. Likewise the Belgrade Conference to review com pliance with the provisions of the ‘Human Rights of the Helsinki Final Act’ did not change matters in the least—the Soviet Union didn’t even raise the issue of the Noschrim; as many had feared.

I believe that the problem of Noschrim poses potentially the most serious threat to Israel, and to World Jewry. Every Soviet Jew who opts for the U.S.A. and for its ma-• terial blandishments, also opts for the continuation of his life in the diaspora, where he is vulnerable to

the bloodless holocaust of accultu ration and assimilation not only he, but also his children and their children—if, indeed they will still choose to remain as Jews. With the Jewish People losing a million peo ple every ten years to assimilation, we must come to grips with the magnitude of the probl~m. Surely Moses did not bring the Children of Israel out of bondage so that they would turn aside from their people when they were free? In Exodus we read that he asked Pharaoh in the name of the Holy One to “LET MY PEOPLE GO THAT THEY MAY SERVE ME.” Their freedom was to be celebrated not by their assimi lation but by their preservation as a unified Jewish People.

The heightened awareness of the problem of Noschrim by American Jewish leaders, teachers and rabbis has led to a marked increase in Jewish educational facilities through out the United States for the fami lies of Soviet ‘refugees’. But this has not significantly affected the vast majority of immigrants who have shown little interest in communal activity. Attempts by Israeli officials in Vienna to stem the tide of Nosch rim have been fruitless, since the Soviet Jew has decided whether to go to Israel or elsewhere long be fore he leaves Russia, and little can be done to influence him by the time he arrives in Austria. Thus the hemorrhage continues—and we do not need a physician to tell us that

hemorrhage, if not controlled, leads to death.

While one can justly criticize Is rael for being unprepared for the wave of Soviet Aliya in recent years, which led to many Ohm reporting back to the Soviet Union in nega tive terms about their new life in Israel, in the last 18 months, a sub stantial improvement in Israeli atti tudes is perceptible, and the Soviet Ohm are being received more warm ly than heretofore. While the present government of Israel seems to be more receptive to new ideas and suggestions for improving the lot of the Soviet immigrants, a great deal remains to be done. Certain basic issues and problems still must be solved, the two most important be ing:

(a) THE FIRST YEAR IN IS RAEL: Adjusting from life in a to talitarian and regimented society to integration in an open, free, com petitive society where problems of housing, schools, social acceptance, language, the bureaucracy and ide ological contrasts all make the set tling-in process extremely difficult is a traumatic experience.

(b) THE NEED FOR A JOB IN ONE’S IDENTICAL PROFES SION OR VOCATION: While this may be difficult for a non-Russian to comprehend, it is an imperative for any Soviet immigrant. In the Soviet Union, a slave empire bereft of freedom, where ideology is dead and there are few if any outlets for

human expression, a person’s job becomes elevated from a mere occu pation to a new religion. Within the confines of his workshop, office or laboratory, it gives the individual freedom freedom to work, to produce, to create, to express him self, to communicate with his col leagues, and, to some extent, to compensate for the socio-political regimentation outside his place of work. This attachment to his occu pation does not leave him when he crosses the Soviet border. On the contrary, it becomes reinforced, since it remains a symbol of se curity and freedom that will be even more imperative in his new life.

Let us examine the 120,000 im migrants from the Soviet Union who came to Israel between 1971 and 1978 and successfully integrated. In analyzing this group, we see that its members came from two specific regions in the Soviet Union, and from environments that greatly fa cilitated their adjustment to Israeli life. First were the Baltic Jews who grew up in a richly-Jewish and Zion istic environment. Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia were renowned as seats of Jewish learning. Hebrew was spoken in every home, and children were raised in an environment of Yiddishkejt and traditional Juda ism. The second major source of immigrants was far removed from the Baltic: Georgia, Bukhara and the Mountain regions, where Jews had lived since the Second Com monwealth. Throughout the centu ries they had clung to their re ligious and national traditions with unparalleled, almost mystical fervor that could not be dampened or de stroyed either by the Tsars or the K.G.B. When the modem State of Israel was created these proud Jews fought unrelentingly for their right to go to live there.

While 120,000 Soviet Jews came to Israel, some 39,000 who left the Soviet Union did not. Their only

concern was to leave the Soviet Union and establish themselves in Western Europe or the United States where they would be able to realize their goals which were entirely ma terialistic and utterly devoid of Zi onist (or occasionally even Jewish) content. In no way can we blame the rate of “drop-outs” on the So viet Union or on its selection pro cess—the Soviets are not interested in the fate of emigrants. Moreover, we have no data regarding the cxi teria used in selection. Thus, the problem to which we must address ourselves is how to minimize the immigration of Soviet Jews to coun tries outside Israel, and how to maximize the proportion of Soviet emigrants going to the Jewish State.

Two suggestions are offered in this paper. Both require the co operation not only of Israel, but also of world Jewry which cannot and would not abrogate its respon sibility for the safety and well-being of the Soviet Jews.

We suggest:

(a) Every Jewish family reaching Vienna from the Soviet Union should be given an outright grant of $5,000.00 in the form of twelve monthly checks which would be re deemable only by the recipient in Israel. This would represent a gift from World Jewry designed to help each family overcome the enormous difficulties of its first year in Israel and ease the problems of housing, education, language, absorption and social acceptance in the most prac tical manner possible, while leaving to the future the less pressing issues of ideology, culture and quality of life when the Soviet Ohm would be settled in their new homes. These matters are indeed secondary for a family undergoing the trauma of ad justment to a new lifestyle.

(b) Also in Vienna: the Govern ment of Israel should provide every breadwinner with a letter guaran teeing that a job within his current

career track will be made available

to him within two weeks of his arrival in Israel. This would neces sitate the Ministery of Labor and the Ministry of Finance developing a marketing strategy to persuade employers to employ Soviet Ohm, rec6gnizing that the first year is one of adjustment, and that the employ er will be compensated by the Gov ernment for any difference between the worker’s productivity and his salary.

These two proposals will, in our view, increase the number of Ohm, both directly and indirectly. Jews still in the Soviet Union will receive a much more positive feedback in the form of letters from new Ohm, who have “made it” persuading them to apply to the Ovir for exit visas. This, in turn, will increase the pressure on this branch of the Soviet bureaucracy to let out more Jews. The estimated cost of this program would be $35 million, and would be borne by World Jewry.

Since Israel is vitally in need of immigration for its very survival, there is little doubt that the Govern ment and the Knesset would be amenable to these proposals and would heartily endorse them.

In order to discuss these ideas, as well as the many changes in the situation of Israel, Soviet Jews and Jews in the free world, it is sug gested that a Third International Conference on Soviet Jewry be con vened. Such a conference would address itself to these changes and to planning strategy and tactics for the future when the problems of the persecution of Soviet Jews, the se curity of Israel in a changing world, her social and economic problems and the fate of those Soviet Jews who did not go to Israel, will be come increasingly exacerbated. The Camp David Accord may well give impetus to Aliya, and this too will require planning and preparation by Jews throughout the world.

ThePatternsofJewishHistory

Some Axioms of Understanding Our Past

History, in the simplest sense of the word, is the chronological ar rangement of noteworthy events. But if history is nothing more than a set of data and dates, then its only appeal is to the natural interests of the curious. Students of history, however, discover much more in the story of mankind than a sequence of adventitious episodes. They find that events tend to fall into patterns; that these patterns possess a mean ingful context, and that this meaning not only relates to the past, but to the present and future as well. This process of organizing the data of history into a rational framework is called interpretation.

Understandably, the interpreta tion of history undergoes modifica tion as new facts come to light. The endeavors of scholarly research, the excavations of archeologists, and di verse attempts to gather material about the past produce new perspec tives corresponding to the augment ed information. Interpretation, how ever, is not purely a matter of assessing data and educiug valid conclusions. Two historians may ex amine the same collection of facts, yet arrive at an entirely different theory to correlate these facts. In terpretation evolves from objective data, and the subjective orientation of the historian. Thus history books may represent a projection of the writer’s point of view as reflected in his interpretation of the facts which are offered to the reader.

Scientific Objectivity?

Secularist historians will, of course, expound a natural interpre tation of hstory. Since they pre suppose that Providence does not intervene in human affairs, they seek a rational explanation of man kind’s experiences. Events that re veal the influence of a Supreme Be ing are either rationalized or ig nored. Written or oral records of such episodes are deemed—by vir tue of their character—to be false, or else they are labeled “folk tales” and “legends.” While secularist his torians make eloquent claim to sci entific objectivity, their rationalist premise drives them to make un founded judgments that are a patent demonstration of their lack of belief in a personal G-d. Consequently, neither reason nor logic will move them from theories and hypotheses.

Jewish History must profess a dis tinct point of view. One important aspect of this perspective is the principle that the course of human events is shaped by Providence. G-d is responsive to human conduct, and in accordance with the individual He displays His grace or His wrath and collective behavior of mankind. Israel’s rise and fall is traceable to the prevalence of good or evil in its midst. In this respect, the destinies of other nations may also be affect ed by Israel’s spiritual condition, since these powers are part of the universal mechanism whereby the Almighty accomplishes His will on earth.

History

Is An Unrolled Scroll

Providence is not the sole prin

ciple to be utilized in interpreting Jewish history, however. An Ameri can scholar once said: “History is but the unrolled scroll of prophecy.” One may go a step further and say —in the language of modern tech nology that the history of the world was ‘coded’ from the very moment of Creation. An illustration of this principle which is particu larly applicable to an understanding of the beginnings of Jewish history is found in B’reishis Rabbah. Inter preting the second verse of Parshas B’reishis, Reish Lakish expounds the word tohu as an allusion to Baby lonia, bohu to Media, choshech to Greece, at p’nei s’hom to Rome, while the words v’ruach Elokim m’rachefess he sees as a reference to the advent of Moshiach. Thus, the emergence of the four principal powers which Israel encauntered in its passage through history was im plicit in its nature from the time of its Creation. In this light, the pre science of such prophets as Jeremiah and Daniel derives not simply from power to predict the future, but from the faculty to divine the reali zation of the plan which is intrinsic to the act of Creation.

In addition to the intervention of Providence and the ‘coding’ of fu ture development, there is yet an other consideration which enters as an essential element in the process of historical interpretation. In Cho fetz Chaim at Ha’Torah, the follow ing comment is found on the events recorded in Parshas Vayigash where-

16 THE
JEWISH HOMEMAKER

in Joseph reveals himself to his brothers and proclaims “I am Jo seph.”:

“During the entire period from the time Joseph’s brothers first came to Egypt to bring back grain, and Joseph pretended not to know them, speaking harshly to them and suspecting that they were spies, they asked each other many questions. What happened?—and why? They sought counsel and blamed each other. The second time, too, they wondered and were asked “what has the Lord done to us?”—until they heard the words “I am Joseph” from their brother’s mouth. Imme diately, the questions, the wonder, and the doubts vanished, and the matter was fully resolved for them.

Similarly, when the world shall hear the words “I Am G-d,” all questions and wonder concerning the conduct of the world—which up to the present time presents a puzzling sight—will become clari fied, all doubts will be resolved, and all mankind shall together see that the hand of G-d acted at all times for our benefit.”

Thus, complete understanding of Jewish history must wait for future. Any interpretation prior to the final Redemption must of necessity be tentative and subject to revision in the light of later events. The ap parent complexion of particular his torical periods as favorable or un favorable may prove to have been wholly deceiving. Jewish history must be studied in projection and in retrospect: in projection—as the emergence of a pre-designed pattern of the future; and in retrospect— as a continuous reinterpretation of the past.

Eyes Endowed With Wisdom

The cosmic and spiritual aspects of Jewish history—and the para doxes inherent in them—must be studied through the eyes of those who are endowed with the vision

to discern the unique character of our people. In the Talmud, the Midrash, and other sacred sources, our Sages have provided the insights which are necessary for a true eval uation of significant episodes of the past. By use of the transcendant wisdom which they have passed down to us, we are able to introduce into a mass of facts the integrating concepts which translate history in to a universal testimonial to the uni ty and omnipotence of G-d. An attempt to chart the course of Is rael’s history without drawing upon the talmudic writings must inevitably result in a grotesque and distorted image of our past. The fallacies which find their way into the works of secular Jewish historians bear ample witness to this proposition.

Finally, the history of Israel must be studied parallel with the emerg ing patterns of the Torah of Israel. Time and again the extinction of Is rael’s existence was averted by the appearance of Torah in a new form capable of meeting the special chal lenge of the period. The Chazal tell us that following the destruction of the Beis Hamikdosh, “the Holy One, blessed may He be, has no place in the universe except the four ells of the Law.” This declaration defines the Torah as the site where G-d maintains His intimate involvement with Israel and ultimately with the world at large. It follows, therefore, that a study of the transmission of Torah from one age to the next and the manner in which Torah adapts to the changing condition of Israel is essential to an understanding of our history. Indeed, a true precep tion of Jewish existence leads inevit ably to the realization that it is the talmid chacham who devotes himself to the study of Torah and bears the sacred responsibility of passing To rah to future generations, who is the history-maker; and it is the Gedolei Torah of each generation who are our heroes and champions.

We are happy to inform the public that our ® seal of Kashruth will soon appear on all Goodman’s pro ducts. Goodman’s are now under new ownership. The new owners are Shomrej Torah U’Mitzvohs (Torah ob servant Jews). They are very anxious to have their products produced under the strictest Hashgacha. They are complying with all of our demands for the highest standard of Kashruth.

For instance, they are marketing canned and jarred Gefilte Fish. The fish used in the production of gefilte fish used by all factories producing jarred geffite fish comes from Winnipeg, Canada. This factory that ifiets and chops the fish has a Mashgiach for 8 hours who is present intermittently (~lZ~ ) at the production. He is not required to watch the fish continuously. As a matter of fact, at times the company works around the clock. Fish is also purchased from a company in Nebraska which has no Mashgiach. I discussed the supervision of the fish in Winnipeg with Hagaon Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, shlita, and he insisted that we send additional Mashgichim to Winnipeg and not rely upon the Mashgiach there. We did this. We sent our own Mashgichim to Winnipeg and to Nebraska to watch all the fish that Goodman’s purchased. We also sent our own Mashgiach to the company that manufactured our fish. Our Mashgiach kindles the fire and makes sure they use ONLY the fish that we supervise.

I have recently visited two fisheries in New Found-

GOODMAN’S PRODUCTS

land where a fish is fileted and frozen. The types of fish filet in these fisheries are: Greenland Turbot, flounder, cod, catfish, red perch, among others. Greenland Turbot is a Kosher fish. Real Turbot is NOT a Kosher fish. Real Turbot is not found in these waters and is caught around Great Britain. All of the above-mentioned fish are Kosher except catfish. At one of the fisheries all the fish are caught together. They are ifieted together. Then the women working on the lines separate the fish—after the skins and bones are removed. This means that one must rely upon these women that the non-kosher catfish is NOT sold as flounder or cod or any of the Kosher fishes. I asked the owner what steps are taken if a mistake is made and catfish is passed along as a Kosher variety. His answer was, “You can’t die from catfish!” You see, therefore, that one cannot go into a store and buy ifileted fish without a reliable Hechsher.

Several products of Madanim are made in Belgium under the Madanim name. These products do NOT carry the ®. Dark and milk chocolate recently pro duced in Belgium under the Madanim label does NOT carry our ®. Some time ago I asked the rabbi who supervises these chocolates how they Kasher the equip ment from Cholov Akum; he showed me an opinion that it is not necessary to Kasher the equipment.
