Torah Portion
Parashat Ki Tavo Deuteronomy 26:1-29:8
Saturday, September 21, 2024 / 1 8 Elul 5784
The Israelites are instructed to express their gratitude to God for their bountiful harvests and freedom from slavery by tithing ten percent of their crops for the Levite, the stranger, the orphan, and the widow. (26)
The people are told to display on large stones God's commandments for all to see. (27:1-8)
The Levites are to proclaim curses upon those who violate God s commandments. (27:15-26)
The Israelites are told that if they obey God's mitzvot faithfully, they will receive every blessing imaginable. They are also told that if they do not fulfill their brit with God, many curses will descend upon them. (28:1-69)
Moses reminds the Israelites of the miracles they witnessed in the wilderness and commands them to observe the terms of the covenant so that they may succeed in all that they undertake. (29:1-8)
Relax! God put the wiggle in children. Don t fee you have to suppress it in our sanctuary or chapel Sit towards the front where it is easier for your little ones to see and hear what is happening on the Bima. They tire of seeing the backs of other’s heads.
Quietly explain our rituals and sing or clap when appropriate Children learn liturgical behavior by copying you
If you need to leave services with your child, do so, but please come back.
Remember that the way we welcome children in synagogue directly affects the way they respond to coming to synagogue, to God, to one another
Let them know that they are welcome in this house of worship, here, at Temple Beth-El
