The depth of Torah knows no bounds. Volumes of sefarim are written about seemingly minute topics. Gemara contains the give and take of a sugya, while the halacha reveals the end result. What could be better than combining this process of learning—from the conceptual discussion in the Gemara to the p’sak halacha in the Mishnah Berurah! And even more so, to learn a sugya relevant to an upcoming Yom Tov!

Now, we have that opportunity. This year the limudim of Daf HaYomi Bavli and Dirshu Daf HaYomi B’Halacha are incredibly coinciding with each other in the months preceding the Yom Tov of Succos. This gives us a rare opportunity to prepare for the Chag with a deep understanding of the complex Mesechta and Halachos behind this extraordinary Yom Tov.

Selling a business requires more than a classified ad in the newspaper. It requires years of meticulous planning, keeping your books in perfect order, and strategically positioning the business within its industry thereby increasing its value. Once primed for market, targeting prospective buyers and subsequent deal negotiations are vital.

With a proactive and tax planning approach, Saul N. Friedman, CPA and the SNFCO team have developed successful exit strategies for many business owners who sold their business, often for more than they could dream of.

SNFCO’s record of merger and acquisition planning speaks for itself. Our unrivaled negotiating skills means that you’re in good hands when it comes to selling your business. Better than a broker, SNFCO will get your business what it’s really worth. Schedule a free consultation directly with Saul at snf@snfco.com

THE VOICE OF MOURNING

(Re: Meron Coverage, Issue 297) Thank you for your coverage on the terrible Meron tragedy. The piece was so poignant and struck a chord deep within me. It gave the heartbreak and mourning we feel as a community a voice, and you did it all with such respect, without printing any pictures that I wouldn’t want my children to see. May Hashem comfort the grieving families and a grieving nation, and bring us the final nechamah. A Fellow Yid

In your pages was something that didn’t even require the use of the Bosch that I don’t own! I carefully added the ingredients to my very short grocery list, and a mere 25 minutes after a quick run to the grocery, the heavenly aroma of cinnamon filled my kitchen. My proud little pastries disappeared as quickly as they became! Thank you for turning me into chef of the day! G.A.

WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES

(Re: The Upsherin That Almost Wasn’t, Issue 296) I was sorry to read the letters passing harsh judgment on the woman who accidentally forgot the date of her son’s upsherin. No one truly understands the distractions another person might have, which can lead to human forgetfulness. The mother committed no crime, nor did she violate a single halacha. She simply forgot an important milestone in her child’s life, which she was, baruch Hashem, able to rectify. We all make mistakes. Sometimes those mistakes can cause permanent damage. This one certainly does not qualify as such. Let’s not disparage a wonderful Yiddishe mamma who was just overwhelmed with the brachos in her life. May I also point out that the Torah we so joyfully introduce to our precious children commands us to judge our fellow Yid favorably? A Sympathetic Reader P.S. As I recall, upsherins 30 years ago were a far cry from the often lavish events (complete with photoshoots, themed decor, etc.) of today. The simple upsherins of the past were not as pre-planned as they are today.

BETTER THAN IT LOOKED

(Re: A Shabbos Menu Fit for a King, Issue 282) I have a family member who is on a gluten-free diet, and when I see recipes without gluten, I enjoy trying them. Back in January, when you featured glutenfree ideas in your magazine, several of my sisters contacted me to make sure that I’d seen it. I’d seen it, and specifically the recipe for gluten-free challah, but I have to admit that the accompanying photo didn’t look all that appetizing. Since I’m in the line, I knew that the photo was not accurate and went ahead and tried the recipe anyway. Indeed, it was a great recipe. Thanks for sharing such great information and raising awareness about all sorts of topics. A Reader

come close to the value of learning the eternal Torah! And being in contact with true wealth inspires him to proclaim his inner delight at choosing the attraction he prefers — ‘Tov li Toras picha mei’alfei zahav v’chesef.’” * * * * * We may not be faced with such open encounters with wealth, but we, too, come across this choice many times in our lives. We also have the opportunity to decide between Torah and our personal comfort levels. Seforim say that by staying up to learn, our men demonstrate their love for Torah, their deep desire to connect. That’s how we show Hashem that we value Torah over all else, and that we are ready to sacrifice for it. Our chavivus haTorah is so great! What better preparations could we make for this momentous occasion, when we will receive the Torah once again, than giving up our night to learn? Yes, “Tov li Toras picha mei’alfei zahav v’chesef!”

Matan Torah or Kabbalas HaTorah? The Chiddushei HaRim asks why Shavuos is known as the yom tov of “Matan Torah — the giving of the Torah.” Shouldn’t it rather be called the yom tov of “Kabbalas HaTorah — the receiving of the Torah”? Indeed, the Torah was handed to us thousands of years ago, and every year on Shavuos, we commemorate the giving of the Torah. But Kabbalas HaTorah occurs on a daily basis, for we accept the Torah every single day anew.

The formative years of childhood are likened to arrows in the hands of a warrior — k’chitzim b’yad gibbor. One imaginative interpretation of this curious analogy states that just as when drawing a bow and arrow, even a minor increase in the intensity of the pull will cause the arrow to travel exponentially farther, so, too, the efforts put into a young child have far-reaching effects, with an impact that lasts a lifetime. When it comes to children and adolescents strug-

program, geared toward the age group ranging from newborn to 21, is to provide early support so that children are kept from requiring more intensive help later in life,” says Mr. Cohen. A care manager is assigned to each child, and they will work with the parents, guardians and children themselves to determine which home and community habilitation services are best suited for the specific case. These services are offered in non-traditional settings (hence the name Home & Community Based) and include recreational activities, social skills building, play therapy, expressive arts and more. “The eligibility criteria are fairly broad,” Mr. Cohen continues. “They include mood disorders, emotional disturbances, developmental delays, medical fragility and the like. The aim is to provide each child under our care with the tools needed to thrive in social settings and be able to advocate and care for themselves as productive members of society.”

“The aim is to provide each child under our care with the tools needed to thrive in social settings.” gling with learning difficulties, developmental delays, social struggles or special needs of any sort, many parties have good reason to pull just a little harder. The youngsters themselves, understandably, just want to fit in with their peers. Parents who wish to see their child succeed in life share in this effort too. Even governmental agencies and insurers would go to great lengths to avoid having a child end up in a special ed school, or needing intensive help later in life. This joint effort received a significant boost in April of 2019 when the Children’s HCBS (Home & Community Based Services) program took effect, kicking off a marked shift in treatments and services available to these children and young adults. With two successful years of facilitating this service for their clientele, we spoke with Mr. Cohen, the Director of Program Development at Yedei Chesed, to get a sense of the impact and scope of this program, and learn more about who might be eligible to take advantage of its benefits. “The central idea of this

HCBS in Practice The tools at the disposal of Yedei Chesed are wide and varied. The group, known for its intimate and client-centric approach, boasts a dedicated department called Loyal Care, which is tasked with providing every child and family with the services that are right

for them. For some it might be expressive art lessons; for others behavioral support; and for certain families, respite, nutritional guidance and palliative care may be in order. We spoke with Mrs. S. Klein, a Monsey mother whose five-year-old continues to receive services through the Loyal Care program. “I keep telling friends that the name Yedei Chesed truly encapsulates the service they provide for this population. It does not feel like I’m being served by a business-like provider; I get the sense that I’m dealing with family who really cares and wants what’s best for my son — even recommending services that take place outside of their domain.” This is by design, says Mr. Cohen. “We aim to establish a heimish, warm relationship where the needs of the child are the only things that matter. Baruch

Hashem, our clientele is very appreciative, and we continue to receive wonderful feedback, both for our service and for its results.” The HCBS program requires the setting of goals that are established in advance and measurable. There are reviews in place through which to determine whether these goals have been achieved and to gauge the progress of each child. During the recent lockdowns, the program brought tremendous relief to many families in the community. For developing children who were isolated and lonely, the providing of non-traditional therapies was a game changer. The Yedei Chesed team worked within the framework of HCBS to safely visit with children and help them grow despite the circumstances. Many families now share how this crucial service was their lifeline at the time. For those who were unaware of this program or uncertain of their eligibility, it is recommended that they contact the Yedei Chesed office, and their intake staff will be happy to discuss your individual situation and guide you appropriately. With the remarkable number of available

CHAPTER 7 RECAP: Shabbesai Tzvi settles in Salonika at the home of Shlumiel Karidi, who offers him his daughter Leah’s hand in marriage. After some time, upon the request of his father-in-law and the elders of the city, he divorces Leah Karidi.

G

amliel returned to Smyrna in the early winter of 1658. The letters of introduction had opened many doors, he reported to Yechiel. He had met many wealthy people, and they had been quite receptive to his appeals. He thanked Yechiel profusely on behalf of the impoverished people of the Holy City. The summons to Shabbesai Tzvi’s wedding arrived while Gamliel was still in Smyrna, and the two friends made plans to travel to Salonika together. They sailed from Smyrna with the early morning tide on a gray, blustery day. The ship lurched through the churning waters of the Aegean Sea, the screeching wind tearing at its half-furled sails. Gamliel became seasick on their first afternoon out and spent the rest of the voyage below deck. On the last day before they made port, the sun broke through the leaden skies, and the winds died down. Yechiel leaned against the railing on the forward deck to watch the landfall. Mount Chortiatis rose above the mist as they sailed into the Gulf of Salonika on a placid blue sea. Soon the city of Salonika,

156 / THE MONSEY VIEW

spread over the slopes and foothills of the mountain, came into view. They found lodgings in a rambling old house that had been converted into an inn. Weak and dehydrated, Gamliel remained in the room while Yechiel set off to pay his respects to Shabbesai Tzvi. “Yes?” asked the tall young man who opened the door. “Can I come in?” said Yechiel. “I’ve come from far away, and I would like to see the Master.” The young man calmly surveyed Yechiel’s expensive clothing. “Who are you?” “I’m Yechiel Tomashov from Smyrna, formerly of Warsaw.” “What do you want?” “I want to see the Master.” “I’m sorry. The Master is not seeing anyone.” “I insist on seeing him,” snapped Yechiel. “What gives you the right to insist?” asked the young man as he positioned himself to block the doorway. Behind him, several young men sitting at a table stopped what they were doing to watch the exchange in the doorway. These were obviously the new guard, the followers

the Master had attracted during the last few years. To them Smyrna was just another city. To them the man at the door was a total stranger. Yechiel felt a sickening sense of loss. “I was a follower of the Master before you even heard of him,” said Yechiel, his voice full of bitterness. “I’ve crossed the sea to come here because the Master invited me to his wedding. Who are you to keep me from seeing him? What is your name?” “My name is Mukian the Macedonian. And if you are indeed one of the Master’s followers from Smyrna, I’m honored to meet you. You’re privileged, Yechiel. May I call you Yechiel?” “Of course,” said Yechiel, somewhat mollified. “I’ve just arrived after a long sea voyage, and I’m weary. I’d like to see the Master.” “I’m sorry,” replied Mukian with genuine sympathy. “The Master is in seclusion. I dare not disturb him. You’ll likely not see him before the wedding.” Yechiel remembered Shabbesai Tzvi’s periods in Smyrna. He sighed. “I’m ashamed to admit this, Mukian,” he said, a sheepish smile on his face, “but I don’t even know the name of the bride. Who is she? Can you tell me something about her?” Mukian shook his head. “I am afraid there is nothing I can tell you, Yechiel. I myself know


nothing about the Master’s bride. Nor do any of us. It’s a deep mystery.” Yechiel stumbled out into the street baffled yet strangely exhilarated. This would be more than an ordinary wedding. Wild thoughts and speculations spun through his mind as he wandered the ancient streets of Salonika. After a while, his thoughts turned to his surroundings. Yechiel had never visited Salonika, and the place intrigued him. Jews had lived in Salonika ever since the first Jewish settlers had migrated from the Egyptian city of Alexandria during the times of the Second Beis Hamikdash. Over the years, others arriving from such diverse places as Calabria, Sicily and Majorca had brought great wealth and prosperity. After the intensification of the Inquisition in Portugal in 1630, a steady stream of escaping Marranos had added to the affluence of the community. At the time Yechiel arrived in Salonika, the Jewish population numbered in the thousands, and Salonika had become a commercial and industrial center with a port rivaling that of Venice. Its Jewish community was one of the most vibrant in the Empire. The sounds of Torah scholars studying filled its shuls. Physicians, philosophers, poets and musicians strolled its streets. Each group of new arrivals had established its own shul and retained its own customs and identity, and as a result, Salonika was a singularly colorful city. Even the names of the two oldest shuls of Salonika, Eitz Hachaim and Eitz Hadaas, somehow underscored the whimsical nature of the city. Most of Yechiel’s first two days in Salonika were occupied with forming new contacts among the hundreds of local cloth makers. In the mornings and evenings, he prayed in the Shalom Shul that Shabbesai Tzvi frequented when he was not in seclusion. Even now, it was filled with Shabbesai Tzvi’s many followers. Yechiel remained in the shul late into the night learning Gemara or the kabbalistic teachings of Shabbesai Tzvi in informal groups. On the third day after their arrival in Salonika, Gamliel felt well enough to go out, and the two friends spent the entire afternoon exploring the city. They ventured beyond the Jewish neighborhood, as far as the Kalmaria Heights at the southern edge of the bay. Salonika had been conquered by the Turks over two hundred years earlier, and the stamp of the Empire was everywhere. Turkish merchants argued in the marketplaces. Turkish troops galloped through the streets. Domed mosques dotted the landscape. Even the early Byzantine churches had been converted to mosques. Somehow, Salonika did not seem all that distant from Smyrna. The announcement of the date of Shabbesai Tzvi’s wedding came on the very day it was to take place. Shabbesai Tzvi had emerged from seclusion after dark the previous night. Accompanied by Mukian the Macedonian and several others, he had gone down to the bay at

“I am afraid there is nothing I can tell you, Yechiel. I myself know nothing about the Master’s bride. Nor do any of us. It’s a deep mystery.”

midnight and immersed himself seven times. Then he’d danced through the streets all the way back to his rooms. He spent the rest of the night praying and learning Kabbalah, and only then did he allow the announcement to be made: The wedding would take place at noon at the Shalom Shul. When Yechiel and Gamliel arrived two hours before noon, a huge crowd had already gathered. A magnificent floral wedding canopy stood in the courtyard of the shul. It was completely enclosed in blue velvet drapery. A few chairs had been placed on the steps of the shul, and the entire area had been cordoned off by a large group of Shabbesai Tzvi’s new disciples who were hard-pressed to keep the crowd at bay. Shortly before noon, the elders arrived and

The dancers went into an ecstatic trance, whirling and spinning as they circled the Master and the silent bride.

were shown to the chairs at the top of the steps. By then the streets were filled with people as far as the eye could see. Precisely at noon, Shabbesai Tzvi appeared. He was dressed in a shimmering satin robe of the purest white and was wrapped in a tallis. He wore a white silk turban on his head. Fifty burly disciples formed a solid human wall around him, and the people strained forward to see him. Sons rode their fathers’ shoulders. Mothers lifted infants high into the air to catch a glimpse of the holy man. A hush fell over the crowd as the blue drapes of the wedding canopy were pulled away. Two young men wearing blue robes and turbans stood on either side of a form of medium height completely draped in a veil of heavy white lace that reached down to the ground. The bride had apparently been waiting all along for her groom behind the velvet drapes. Shabbesai Tzvi stopped several paces before the bride. For a long time, he remained there swaying gently from side to side, tears streaming down his cheeks and streaking his beard. Then he began to sing. Arms spread wide and head thrown back, he swayed back and forth, singing a tune without words, a soft melody that hovered somewhere between sorrow and hope. His disciples joined hands and began to dance in a circle around Shabbesai Tzvi and his bride. Yechiel Tomashov and Gamliel Basnoun, as well as other disciples and friends who had come from afar, pushed forward to join the circle of dancers. As the circle grew larger and the dancing faster, the crowd was pushed back farther and farther until a broad space was opened around the lone dancing figure in shimmering white. The figures under the canopy remained perfectly still, as if they had turned to stone. Shabbesai Tzvi’s song came to an end and the dancers in the circle began to sing one of the more traditional versions of Od Yishama. Shabbesai Tzvi continued swaying back

and forth, his ear cocked to the sound of the singing dancers. Just as the song seemed to be coming to an end, Shabbesai Tzvi’s clear, beautiful voice joined in the singing. He clapped his hands together vigorously and began to dance in an ever-widening circle of his own. Infected with the Master’s fervor, the dancers went into an ecstatic trance, whirling and spinning as they circled the Master and the silent bride. Suddenly, Shabbesai Tzvi stopped dancing and abruptly raised his arms. The dancing circle instantly came to a halt, and an eerie silence descended over the entire scene.

The crowd gasped. The elders stormed off the steps of the shul and left. The crowd stood mesmerized, in absolute silence, as Shabbesai Tzvi pulled the tallis over his head and began to dance toward the bride with slow, graceful steps. The elders rose from their chairs on the steps of the shul and craned their elderly necks to get a better view. People leaned from their windows and watched from the crowded rooftops. The entire city of Salonika seemed to be jammed into the streets and alleyways around the Shalom Shul, bound together by the enchanted strands of the trance spun by the magical dancer in white. Once again, Shabbesai Tzvi stopped several paces before the bride. “My bride, I am here!” he cried out. “At long last, I am here! You have been my destined bride since the beginning of time. I have been waiting for this moment ever since the Almighty created my soul thousands of years ago. You have been waiting longer.” The bride did not respond. “The heavens and the earth are my witnesses that as Yaakov Avinu worked seven years to earn the hand of his wife, so have I worked seven years to earn the hand of my wife. For seven long years I have wandered in exile, pursued by the kelipah who tried to keep us apart. But I fought against the forces of darkness, and I have won. Today is my day of victory. Today we shall be wed, and we shall become as one forever and ever. Arise, my bride, your groom approaches!” At these words, the two young men flanking the bride reached down, and in one fluid motion, pulled away the heavy white veil of lace. A Torah scroll, encased in a gleaming cylinder of solid silver in the Sephardic style, rested on a stand of polished mahogany. The Torah was wrapped in a mantle of the same shimmering satin material as the robe worn by Shabbesai Tzvi, fringed in gold braid. A facsimile of the holy ark was embroidered on the front of the mantle in gold thread. The crowd gasped. The elders stormed off the steps of the shul and left. Even Shabbesai Tzvi’s devoted followers seemed shocked by the identity of the bride. To be continued…

Good News as COVID-19 Capacity Limits Start Falling Away Citing significant progress in the fight against COVID-19, with the number of reported cases falling as vaccination rates rise, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy and Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont joined together last week to deliver some good news, for a change. The announcements from the tri-state governors upped the 200-person limit for outdoor social gatherings to 500 this past Monday. Starting May 19, the indoor social gathering limit will rise from 100 to 250, while there will be no limits on outdoor residential gatherings and a 50-person limit for indoor residential events. Larger-scale events that exceed social gathering limits may be held as long as all participants have proof of vaccination status or a recent negative COVID-19 test result. There was good news for shuls and businesses as well, with capacity limits lifted completely effective May 19 as long as six-foot social distancing can still be maintained. According to NBC News, Cuomo said that New York could be fully reopened within the next two months if the state’s vaccination pace stays on track, with “literally, everything back to normal.” Cuomo emphasized the importance of a two-pronged approach — upping vaccination rates while continuing to uphold safety measures in the face of the pandemic. “In order to keep moving in a positive direction, New Yorkers must continue to take all the proper precautions,” said Cuomo. “If we let up now, we could slide backward and that is something that nobody wants. So, let’s be safe and for anyone who has yet to be vaccinated, please do so as soon as you can.” Meanwhile, The Telegraph reported that an at-home COVID-19 cure could be available as early as this year. A pill being developed by Pfizer in the United States and Belgium is currently being tested on volunteers. A protease inhibitor codenamed PF-07321332, the

166 / THE MONSEY VIEW / May 12, 2021 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484

pill targets the main portion of the virus, preventing it from replicating in the nose, throat and lungs. It took 201 researchers to create the compound, which was originally tested on animals. Human trials are currently underway and will run for 145 days, followed by a four-week “screening and dosing” period. In a statement released in April, Pfizer’s Mikael Dolsten said that PF-07321332 could be given at the first sign of infection, saving patients from potential hospitalizations and the need for critical care.

Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant Shuts Down for Good Nearly 60 years after it first opened to supply New Yorkers with electricity, the Indian Point Energy Center, located on the eastern banks of the Hudson River in Westchester’s Village of Buchanan, has officially closed down, ending years of disputes about the nuclear power plant. Located approximately 33 miles from the heart of Monsey, construction first began on Indian Point in 1956. Its first pressurized water reactor, known as Unit 1, began operating in 1962, with two more reactors, known as Unit 2 and Unit 3 coming online in the mid seventies, as Unit 1 was decommissioned. Together, Unit 2 and Unit 3 supplied 25% of Westchester and New York City’s electrical needs, but over time their capacity began to steadily decrease, with Unit 2 shut down

Indian Point has been a source of controversy for years, with many concerned that it could jeopardize the lives of the 20 million people who live within a 50-mile radius of the plan. A terror attack or an accident at the plant could spell potential disaster with no way to evacuate all those in relatively close proximity in the event of a radiological release, reported ABC 7. Environmentalists were also in favor of its closing, saying that by taking in massive Rabbi Horowitz, Executive Director of Community Outreach Center, amounts of river water, it was endanwelcomes the participants of the CDL course. gering the fish who call the Hudson River home.

FROM THE FRONT LINES:

The Group Tasked With Breaking the Tragic News to Meron Victims’ Families

Meron – The crushing news hit Klal Yisroel like a ton of bricks. Within a short time, the death toll hit an unfathomable 45 of our brothers, r”l. But as the bodies were identified at Israel’s Abu Kabir Forensic Institute, the gut-wrenching job of informing families that they will never see their father or brother again required those with great skill and expertise. The difficulty of the task was only magnified when young children were involved. Who would tell them that Tatty was taken from them and that their lives will never be the same? Enter Rabbi Meir Aker, Director of Buneinu. As part of the Tov V’Chesed network led by Rabbi Yaakov Eliezer Shisha, he and the team at Buneinu and Bnoseinu serve the emotional needs of orphaned children in Israel in many ways. Among their responsibilities is sharing tragic news with young children and guiding them through the difficult hours and days. Rabbi Aker sadly received lots of additional experience during Israel’s winter coronavirus surge, which claimed the lives of numerous young parents. As soon as the enormity of the tragedy became clear, Rabbi Aker set up command in Tov V’Chesed’s Meron headquarters that was originally outfitted to host the streams of Buneinu members visiting Meron. The delicate and heartbreaking work continued until Shabbos, and resumed as soon as Shabbos was over. Some children had questions, others wanted to know what pesukim or tefillos to say, and many tearfully asked who would look after them. With his gentle demeanor and chinuch expertise, Rabbi Aker walked them through what it means, what to expect, and assured them that they are not alone. At the same time, Rabbi Shisha, who leads the organization and oversees all efforts, prepared to have Buneinu and Bnoseinu staff visit the homes of the victims to be mechazek the almanah and young orphans, as well as siblings of those who passed. Additional therapists and social workers were hired so that the children can have access to the help they need. On Tuesday after the tragedy, Rabbi Shisha said, “We’ve been working around the clock and none of us have had much sleep. It has been very difficult to be at the front row and to witness such incredible pain, but this is our achrayus right now.” Rabbi Shisha shared how the children already feel like part of the Buneinu family, and some of them have already taken time away from shivah to visit the acclaimed Buneinu Center where yesomim spend time at all hours, receiving nourishment, encouragement and support. One group of brothers had heard that the center has hundreds of comic books, and asked if they can come by to borrow some — a request that was happily granted. As the tragic news fades from the headlines, the organization will take the new families under its wings, providing therapy and social support for the children, and sending Shabbos essentials to almanos each week. “I wish we never had to deal with such tragedies, but if this is the ratzon Hashem, it is up to all of us to help ease their pain. May it be a zechus for our entire nation,” concludes Rabbi Shisha.

CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE RECAP: Mr.

Shikovitzer shows Zelig’s note to Binyamin, who wonders what kind of help Zelig was expecting from him. The British soldiers, suspecting involvement on Binyamin’s part, arrest him.

B

inyamin sat in the little room, not knowing what was in store for him. He had not been assigned a prison uniform when he entered, though he’d heard from others that it was standard protocol. He’d been escorted down a long corridor, steep stone stairs, and here he was, in his own clothes. If he was not mistaken, at least two hours had passed since he’d been brought here. There was one narrow window in the room, and Binyamin rose toward it. He looked out at an empty pit between the high walls, filled with thorny summer flowers. A cool sea breeze whistled between the tall stone walls and reached him, cooling his sweaty forehead. He was still thirsty. And he still had no idea what was going to happen to him. But he tried to focus on the fact that, despite it all, it was not the British who would render his fate, nor would it be the Jewish policeman who had displayed a modicum of empathy. It was not even his own father, who was certainly scrambling about right now, trying to exercise his connections to make it clear to the British that this entire arrest was one big mistake. There was only one Decider. Binyamin took a deep breath of air and returned to his bench. Two minutes later, the door opened, and a person with a burgundy beret appeared. “Come,” he said in English. Binyamin knew what the word meant, but the Brit was not addressing him; there was someone behind him, outside the room. A figure entered the room, and Binyamin

raised his eyes. Here it was, the famous prisoners’ uniform. And the face belonged to… no, it was not Zelig, but he knew this boy as well. His family had come just two years ago from Europe, and they worked mining coarse sand from the beachfront. A year ago, Zelig’s father had purchased sand for the renovation of his workshop, and if Binyamin remembered correctly, this young man had delivered it. The Brit asked the bareheaded boy something in English, and the latter looked at Binyamin and shook his head from side to side. Binyamin returned a steady gaze, wondering if he would also be asked if they had any connection or if they knew each other. But the Brit did not even turn to him; he just pushed the

boy out of the room, and someone else entered. Three more times, one after another, Jewish prisoners were led into the room, and three times, their answers were in the negative. Zelig was not one of them. ***** “Binyamin!” Mahmoud clapped his hands loudly in the middle of the street. “Is that you, Binyamin? That’s it, just one day in prison? What did they do there to you that you are so pale?” “Nothing.” Binyamin tried to smile. “It just wasn’t pleasant.” And I didn’t eat anything besides a few carrots. “Sure, sure.” The Arab was friendly. “And why don’t you come to Itzchak a

bit, to help him with his work? Now that Zelig isn’t here, he’s so alone…” “I understand,” Binyamin said, his eyes lowered. “But I’m going back to my yeshivah today, in Chevron. Tell him that I’m praying for him, okay?” “Won’t you come?” “I think that if I come again, the Brits will be sure that Zelig is guilty, and that I’m guilty, and that Mr. Shikovitzer is guilty.” “Right, right. It’s better that you shouldn’t come. It’s enough that you were in prison already. Who else is there?” the Arab asked curiously. “All kinds of people.” “Arabs, Jews?” “Arabs, Jews.” “And Zelig? He’s not there?”

“I don’t think so. I didn’t see him.” “So where is he?” the Arab asked. “I don’t know.” Binyamin shook his head. “He ran away and is probably hiding.” “He’s not hiding, no way! They caught him, poor boy!” “They caught him?!” “Yes. This morning, he suddenly came to the workshop. He said he was hungry and that he was leaving Acco to go somewhere else so that they shouldn’t look for him. Itzchak was so happy, and he wanted to bring him food. But before he managed to get the knife for the bread, the soldiers came.” “And they took him?” “They took him. Itzchak asked the soldiers lots of questions, but they didn’t answer him. They just put Zelig in the wagon and left. If they didn’t take him to the jail here, then where did they take him?” “I don’t know.” Binyamin bit his bottom lip. Oy, Zelig. “I didn’t see him at all. Maybe he came just after I left. They sent me out early this morning, at nine. When did they come to arrest him?” “I don’t remember what time it was — sometime midmorning, you know, when the sun is strong. Maybe eleven or twelve? Maybe he will also be released as fast as you were. Why did they let you out in the end?” “They realized that I have nothing to do with this whole story, and that I wasn’t even in Acco in recent weeks at all.” “Good, good,” the Arab said. “So I’ll tell Itzchak that you are out, and he will be happy. He was sad that you were taken in because of his Zelig, you know.”

Two years later Yerushalayim, 5689 “Binyamin!” Yitzchak Shikovitzer caught the young man walking in the street by the shoulder. “Binyamin, is that you?” The boy raised his eyes. “It’s me,” he said, and fell silent. “How are you? You don’t know how worried I was when we heard what happened in Chevron… The riots in Acco were child’s play compared to what you had…” Binyamin nodded slowly. “It’s a miracle I met your father, and he told me…” Zelig’s father sighed. “He told me that, baruch Hashem, nothing happened to you.” “Yes. Baruch Hashem.” They stood in silence, thinking of the others who hadn’t been as fortunate. “Do you know,” Shikovitzer said, his eyes fiery, “how much I’d be ready to give for my Zelig to be among your holy friends, there in Chevron? Do you have any idea, or can you not possibly understand me and think that I’m a father who doesn’t —” “Of course I understand you,” Binyamin cut him off. “Life in This World, compared to eternal life in the Next World… what’s the question?” “Now I’m not even near my Zelig.” Shikovitzer sighed again. “If I was, I could go visit him in prison, and maybe I could influence him a little to come back, to think. But when we can’t even think about going back to Acco… There are only a few Jews left there, you know — the ones who refused to leave in the great evacuation. The British said they’re not taking responsibility for them, and I hope that nothing happens to any of them. So far we haven’t heard about any unusual inci-

dents… Hashem should continue to protect them.” “And the Jewish prisoners… are they protected there?” “I hope so,” Shikovitzer said darkly. “You know, it’s not like two years ago, when you were there for two days. How many Jews were there then? Ten? A few more? Now there are nearly a hundred; the British send a lot of people there.” “Yes…” Binyamin nodded slowly. “After the terrible riots, the British cleared us all out from Acco. Since then, the Acco Prison is the best place for Jewish prisoners, in their view, in order to prevent any thoughts of escape. The Arab population in the city will not take kindly to Jewish escapees…” “But during the riots there, quite a few Arabs actually helped the Jews.” Binyamin leaned on the tree next to him. “The Arab fisherman whom my father worked with protected him and two others on that dreadful Friday. And my mother and the children went into an Arab neighbor’s home and waited there.” “You’re telling me?” Yitzchak Shikovitzer’s smile was bitter. “Did you forget Mahmoud?” “What happened with Mahmoud?” “I hid in the workshop, behind the oven; he locked the door from the outside. When the Arab rioters came, he told them he had banished me from the property, and that everything now belongs to him. Baruch Hashem, they believed him and left.” “Baruch Hashem. And the shul?” “They broke into it from the window, but they hardly did anything. The Sefer Torah was with me in the workshop.” A thin but genuine smile lit up his eyes. “They wanted to set the house on fire, but the Arab owner came and screamed at them not to dare. It was his property, and he called the police. They came and banished the rioters pretty fast.” “Halevai it should have happened that way in Chevron.” Binyamin’s lips hardly moved when he spoke. Again they were both silent. “What will be now?” Zelig’s father murmured as he looked at the brown leaves above them. They were still in the dry, searing heat. “Looks like Mahmoud was right about what he said — either way, I’m gone already, and my workplace belongs to him…” “The house where you lived, with the shul, was not yours. But the workshop area was, right?” “Right. I bought it at full price. Though what does that help me now? Oy, we just have to thank Hashem that our lives were spared; it wouldn’t have taken much for Acco’s riots to finish in a bad way, chalilah.” He suddenly looked straight into Binyamin’s eyes. “Not too many people knew, like you, about my dream all these years, that when the time would come and our community would grow, I would take the lot of the workshop and build a big, beautiful shul on it.” He shook his head. “In the last two years, these thoughts don’t leave me for a minute. I don’t know if I will have any descendants to learn for my soul after my passing. Based on the situation right now, it does not appear that there will be. So I want to have the zechus of building a mikdash me’at, so that I should have at least some merits…” “I hope Zelig will yet come back,” Binyamin said softly. “Amen. Halevai,” Mr. Shikovtzer said, but there was a faraway look in his eye, as though he did not believe what he was saying. To be continued…

There’s that special something about a lavishly set Shavuos table that makes the food taste so much better. But (and I say this with a long-suffering sigh), there’s one downside to a nicely bedecked table: the endless piles of dishes to be washed and dried once the seudah is over; and then washed and dried again; and then again and again... Well, this year, you can say goodbye to the endless wash-and-dry cycle. I’m excited to share some exquisite themes created with the most dreamylooking disposable tableware. Yes, they are disposable! And yes, these pieces can be found at your local party store. I picked them up at Creative Elements in Williamsburg, my go-to party shop. The decor options are endless — from chargers, to plates, to glasses, to napkins and so much more! Feel free to switch around, switch up or switch down these settings while you have fun figuring out your custom-set table. And remember, once the seudah is over, all that is left to do is tie up the plastic tablecloth — and cleanup is done! The tablecloths and napkins used are available for rent from the Naperie. The Naperie boasts an exquisite collection of beautiful tablecloths, napkins and more. 646-883-4722 The blue vases, chargers, leaf napkin rings, matte gold cutlery and white glasses are all from Shevy @ Ornate. She has loads of beautiful items at amazing prices. Shevy Reisman: 718-552-5801 or ornatenyc@gmail.com The vases and disposable cutlery, plates and cups are from Creative Elements located at 190 Wallabout Street in Williamsburg. They have a huge selection of gorgeous party goods, decor, gifts and so much more. 718-797-4400

I usually like placing two goblets per setting, but when using a unique glass, I find that one is enough. You can also use plain gold cutlery instead of the two-tone version used here.

May 12, 2021 / THE MONSEY VIEW / 205 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484


Placing the napkin away from the plate leaves room for a pretty appetizer or salad.

Layering creates an elegant look. For this table setting I used four plate layers including the charger, and as you see, it really adds that extra oomph factor.

208 / THE MONSEY VIEW / May 12, 2021 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484


Shavuos is all about flowers, and in my humble opinion, you can never have too many. Besides making your table look even more beautiful, flowers are a great filler for the empty spots and the center of your table.

May 12, 2021 / THE MONSEY VIEW / 209 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484


To create this new look, tie a knot with a ribbon around the edge of a napkin.

Napkins add dimension and sophistication to a table setting, and the options of how to present them are endless. You can choose from some of the ideas presented here, or you can: 1. Tie a knot in the center of the napkin and place it at the side of the plate. 2. Place the napkin underneath your charger and let it drape over the tablecloth. 3. Use a floral napkin ring or an actual flower for a real Shavuos look. 4. Place your napkin in the width or length between the charger and dinner plate and tuck it under the plate.

Hand-painted glasses add so much to any table setting, especially on Shavuos. These were painted by my sister’s friend. To recreate this look, all you need are cheap stemware, good-quality paint and a small-tipped paint brush.

He left home with simple instructions: “Go find the black-andwhite Jews.” Forty years later, Rabbi Avrohom Goldstein looks back at a remarkable journey and reflects on the beauty of the black-and-white life. BY: Y. BLOOMING

It is not every day that one gets to interview a non-native figure who more proudly and eloquently defends the interviewer’s community than they themselves can. Our conversation with Rabbi Avrohom Goldstein, ger tzedek and father of a chassidish family, was supposed to focus on his life story. It did not take long to realize, however, that his history, fascinating as it is, was not all that he had to share with us. Instead, his love and effusive praise of frum Jewish life was as illuminating as it was inspiring. The job of an interviewer is to gather insight on topics they know less about than the interview subject. And indeed, it turns out that there is a lot left to learn about Yiddishkeit from someone who was already a teenager when he met his first Jew. 220 / THE MONSEY VIEW / May 12, 2021 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484

Tell us a bit about yourself. How does a boy from the Caribbean Islands end up wearing a shtreimel? The turning point in my life occurred at the young age of fourteen. There was a bar across the street from our home. One day, an earthquake struck our region, and the significant tremors led to widespread fear that buildings would collapse. During these tension-filled moments, I saw many people running out of the bar, loudly begging their “gods” for forgiveness and promising that if they survived, they’d be “pious” for the rest of their days. Soon the tremors stopped, and once these people realized that they were in the clear, they returned to their drinking as if nothing had occurred. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. And I knew that if the adults around me were not authentic with what they obviously believed to be true in that moment of judgment, then I was going to seek out and find the way of life or group of people that is true to itself.

asked my mother for her take on the matter, and her response changed my life. She told me, “Son, if you’re seeking purity and authenticity, go to the religious Jews. I lived in New York, and I’ve seen their way of life up close.” I took her words to heart and decided to go for it. I had worked as a newspaper boy and had enough money saved up to buy a one-way ticket to New York.

all I knew was to ask the taxi driver to take me to the black-and-white Jews. When I told the driver that, he said, “Oh, that must mean Williamsburg.” When he dropped me off, I was instantly in awe of the people and their eidel ways.

Would you describe yourself as a fairly typical child before that fateful day?

It was a snowy day, and I stood at the corner near Weingarten’s Health Food store. A Yid with a long white beard came out with a shovel and directed me to clear the snow. To me it was like hearing a command from Moshe Rabbeinu himself, so I did as I was told. When I was finished, he gave me $6 and a rice cake. It was my first Yiddishe business deal...

Typical people don’t make the transition I made... I was always somewhat of a seeker. I lived in a tropical paradise, and cruise ships would often stop by. A couple of years prior, I once told my mother that I wanted to travel around the world on one of these cruises, and she said, “Okay, go for it!” So I went… I snuck onto a ship as a stowaway and traveled to various places. That was me.

How did you go about this search?

Did you have a plan for once you’d arrive in America?

I first inquired with a number of clergymen and teachers to hear their thoughts. Their responses were to the effect of “This is the way of the world,” and I was not satisfied. Eventually, I

The only instructions I received from my mother was to go to the “black-andwhite Jews.” I arrived in JFK in the dead of the winter, a boy who had never experienced cold weather in his life, and

Where did you turn, a boy alone in a foreign city?

Where and how did you live during that time? I went into one of the local groceries, and upon seeing a young Puerto Rican man, the owner asked me if I was willing to work. I accepted a job as a delivery man, and as part of my salary, he provided me with sleeping accommodations upstairs. How soon did you begin looking into Yiddishkeit? I tried learning about Yiddishkeit immediately, but people I mentioned it to seemed more eager to call Shomrim than to speak with me. But I practiced whatever I could pick up. I asked children exiting Pupa cheder what they do on Shabbos, and when they told me they made Kiddush on grape juice, I tried my best to do the same. I tried letting my peyos grow, bought tzitzis, and imitated as much

To me it was like hearing a command from Moshe Rabbeinu himself, so I did as I was told. 222 / THE MONSEY VIEW / May 12, 2021 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484


as I could. Even during my first week in New York, I was taken aback by the calm and serenity in Williamsburg on Friday evening, so shortly after the busy afternoon hours. The Shabbos energy was palpable even to me, and I wanted to be part of it. When did things get serious? There was a woman by the name of Mrs. Berger who, seeing how strongly I wanted to learn, advised me to call Reb Yaakov Goldstein, zt”l (father-in-law of the Stitchin Rebbe.) He told me how hard it is to lead a Jewish life and assured me that it’s okay if I just wanted to be a friend of the Yidden. But I was adamant about my plan to convert. Eventually I was sent to Rabbi Moshe Bick, zt”l, in Boro Park, and he tested me on what I’d already learned and spoke to me about my hashkafos. When we were done, he told me that he saw that I was serious about my plans to convert, but advised that it would not be easy finding a shidduch or learning the mentality of the heimish community. How did you get the perfectly Jewish name of Avrohom Goldstein? When I finally became a ger tzedek at the age of sixteen, Rabbi Goldstein gave me the name Avrohom and told me that I should take his last name. Going forward, I would be like one of his own children, he said. How was it to be a young Jewish convert in early-1980s Williamsburg? It was… interesting. People were mostly nice, but try as I might, I stood out like a sore thumb. I didn’t dress in chassidish clothing at first because I didn’t want people to accuse me of jumping too fast. But then I went to shul, and a Yid told me, “If you’re a Yid, dress like one.” So I bought the hat I saw people there wearing. But then I passed another shul and someone commented on the fact that I wasn’t wearing their type of hat. I kept changing and trying to fit in — mostly unsuccessfully. There is so much that goes into being a heimish Yid, and it takes years to learn

224 / THE MONSEY VIEW / May 12, 2021 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484

it all. It’s instinctive to most native people, but just knowing intuitively when to stand up or sit down during davening takes lots of time and some mildly embarrassing slip-ups. I once tore kriah on Tisha B’Av, and then someone made me aware that we don’t do that because when Moshiach comes, it will be a yom tov. No book can possibly teach you all that. How did you eventually find your footing? I was sent to learn at Ohr Sameach, and over there I was just another young man learning about Yiddishkeit. When I returned to America, I heard that the Satmar yeshivah in Kiryas Yoel had some Spanish-speaking Argentinian students. I went to ask the Beirach Moshe, zt”l, whether I could learn in his yeshivah even though I didn’t have any money, and he told me that the Torah says that Hashem made Avrohom Avinu wealthy. That meant I had a rich father and could join… A while later I went to ask the Pupa Rebbe how I could go about finding a shidduch. He directed me to go to Eretz Yisroel and gave me $1,000 so I could buy a ticket and settle in. In Eretz Yisroel, someone took me to Rabbi Yaakov Meir Shechter, who told me that he had a shidduch for me. He sent me to a Yid by the name of Reb Yehuda Leib Frank. The Yid told me that he had a shidduch suggestion and that we would have a beshow that very day. I met my soon-to-bewife, a giyores from Mexico who learned about Yiddishkeit in the heart of Meah She’arim, and in true chassidish fashion, we quickly agreed to get engaged. I was taken aback by the many Yidden, all complete strangers, who participated in our tenoyim with such simcha. And when I arrived back in the U.S., I got a welcome from a group of chassidim in the airport who were holding balloons and singing. I never felt more part of a family. Who helped marry you off? Are you kidding? I had 200 shviggers! With the community coming together to marry us off, we had more than enough clothing, people and opinions… My mother was the only one from my


biological family who attended the wedding. She told me afterward that she knows I’m in a good place here and will no longer worry about me.

You speak Yiddish with the fluency of a native Williamsburger. How did you acquire such proficiency? It didn’t come easily, and it didn’t come all at once. It’s hard to notice when you’re seeing it from the inside, but much more goes into a language than just learning the meaning of words. You need to pick up the style, humor, tone, mentality and many little details before you can talk like “one of us.” Many geirim are hesitant to talk about their past. How are you so comfortable sharing your story?

We live in a world where many children are straying from Yiddishkeit, and even many adults are bitter about the world they live in. I feel that as someone who came from the other side, it is important to help people realize how special they are, how lucky they are to have been born into a world of true meaning and purpose, where they get to live the life other religions try to imitate but can never truly replicate.

Avraham Avinu was the first ger in the world. Did that mean that Yitzchok Avinu should have been embarrassed? You have also been known to publicly defend the chassidish community and way of life. Why did you feel the need to do that? People often fail to realize what they have. Do you know what it means to belong to a community where people look out for one another, where everyone gets to safely raise a family, where children respect their parents, where there is a sense of peace and dignity in our daily lives? The secular world laments the lack of all these things, and we should be proud that we have them. I often come across people criticizing the heimish community, and my response is that some things are not our tafkid. We are here to lead religious lives and study the Torah, not follow whatever the trends of the day are. What we are doing here is based on thousands of years of mesorah; isn’t that at least as powerful as any modern description of what’s moral and right?

What impact does your message have, coming from someone like you? I’ve often seen my words and unique perspective getting through in ways you wouldn’t expect them to. A father once asked me to speak with his son who was slipping in his Torah observance. I ended up taking the boy to a shop of a non-Jewish friend of mine. I walked in and told my friend that the boy is a Levite (from Shevet Levi). The store owner, who is quite well-versed in these matters, stopped and gathered his workers, telling them that he was honored to have a Levite in his shop. He then asked the boy to bless his workers. The boy went around to each worker individually, and after a while, tears began welling up in his eyes. He told me later that he never felt proud of his Levi heritage until that moment. What I aimed to illustrate was that even these non-Jewish people understand that our nation is special, that the Torah is special. I’m reminded of another time where a group of yeshivah bachurim asked me how I know with certainty that the Torah is the Truth. I told them that the janitor in the yeshivah will confirm that it’s true. We went over to him and I asked, “Tell me, do you think people should respect their parents?” Of course, he said yes. “Do you think people should rest one day of the week?” Again, the answer was yes. The same went for “Do you think people

228 / THE MONSEY VIEW / May 12, 2021 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484

should support orphans, love another, watch what they eat?” and a host of other mitzvos. Obviously, none of this was proof in the literal sense, but it did help demonstrate how our Torah is a guiding light for all of humanity. Do you perform any chinuch or Yiddishkeit work professionally? No. My parnassah comes from selling antique violins. This work does share some similarities with chinuch, though, because the value of a violin is based on its mesorah, authenticity, the craftsman behind it and the like... Has being a ger tzedek affected you or your family negatively? I must say that most people have been friendly and supportive throughout, and even on the rare occasion when not, we take it in stride. My son once came home from yeshivah complaining that his classmates teased him about his father’s past. I called my children together and reminded them that Avraham Avinu was the first ger in the world. Did that mean that Yitzchok Avinu should have been embarrassed? “Of course not,” they said. I turned it into a positive teaching moment.

When you take a moment and step back, how do you view your life and journey? Words cannot begin to describe how grateful I am to have come under Hashem’s wings. I have a Jewish family, married off all of my kids, have a number of einiklach, and I live a life of bliss. I look around at my former countrymen, family and other secular people and know that they would do anything to have what we take for granted. Not only do I have Olam Haba, but even my Olam Hazeh is so beautiful and meaningful.

Many reasons have been offered to explain why we read Megillas Rus on Shavuos, from Dovid Hamelech’s lineage to the season of the story. Perhaps most relevant of all is the reminder on this day of kabbalas hamitzvos that our apparent burden is the envy of many free from it. As Rus famously told Naomi: Where you go I will go, And where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people, And your G-d my G-d. Where you die I will die, And there I will be buried.

Making the choice to change one’s entire life and embrace Judaism takes phenomenal drive and strength of character. For geirim and baalei teshuvah, the path is often strewn with stones — and sometimes boulders. It’s not easy to shake off the norms of one’s youth and learn new ways to think, speak, dress… and just be. It can be especially difficult to find people with whom one feels emotionally safe and understood, because being a newcomer to the community puts one into an especially vulnerable position. With that thought in mind, I asked people who’ve taken the ol Torah upon themselves to share what they wished the community knew about being the outsider coming in. While everyone warmly expressed appreciation for the community that embraced them, there were still certain pain points mentioned. It’s our hope that by increasing awareness of this issue, sensitivity and caring can blossom — helping every individual of Klal Yisroel feel part and parcel of the community. Because they are.


Most baalei teshuvah and geirim are incredibly deep thinkers and very intelligent. Therefore, it can be really painful when people assume we don’t know what a Hebrew term means or a concept in Yiddishkeit is. Often we do know — and if we don’t, we’ll ask. We might not feel comfortable asking you, but we’ll ask someone whom we feel safe with. Either way, please leave our dignity intact and don’t put us on the spot.

Please don’t ask me to share my life story. I’m not entertainment. If I feel comfortable sharing it with you, I will.

I’m older and wiser now and have found my place in the frum world, and now I can look back and really appreciate what everyone has done for me in the past. I now know that it’s not easy for people to open their homes and hearts and welcome a baalas teshuvah into their lives. In the past, I didn’t realize what effort it must have taken for them as I was really self-centered. I had to be in order to focus on growth. But now I think back and want to say to everyone: Thank you for welcoming me in!

Just because I converted doesn’t mean I don’t love my non-Jewish family. And even though we’re no longer related according to halacha, it doesn’t mean I’m ready to throw them away.

It can get really lonely sometimes. Please do invite us to your seudos, but don’t be insulted if we don’t come. As people navigating the tempest of change, we sometimes need space, away from everyone. Other times we’re desperate for company. Just keep inviting, please.

I always worry that people don’t think I’m frum enough, even though I’m more machmir than many. I worry that people look down on me because of my background.

I might not be ready to take on certain things that are typical in the community, but it doesn’t mean that I’m intentionally being bad. I’ve had a different upbringing, and the things that might be truly detrimental for you affect me less powerfully. Please don’t forget that I chose to walk away from the secular world. And over time I hope to pull farther away from it, but it’s a process. Give me time.

We’re terrified about getting into schools because schools are hard enough to get into even without “baggage.” If you know us well and can pull some strings, please do! Protekzia is highly appreciated.

It’s really hard to figure out the nuances of how to dress for different events, because in the secular world, almost anything goes. People even walk around in pajamas all day, if they want to! A good friend offering to explain the community dress code, and the differences between weekday, Shabbos, and simcha clothing, for instance, is a huge help and a lifesaver! Taking a newcomer on a shopping trip, especially, is a huge chesed. (No, you don’t have to pay, it’s the guidance that’s valuable!)

It makes me really, really sad when I see frum-from-birth people doing things that aren’t in accordance with halacha. It’s like taking a huge gift that you were handed on a silver platter and dumping dirt all over it. I wish you would appreciate your privilege. You can’t imagine what I would give to have been born Jewish.

Not all Jewish people are fair-skinned and have a “typical” appearance. But we’re still Jewish, the same as you are. Please make us feel so!

We often wear rose-colored glasses at the beginning of our journeys, and then, over time, we realize that people are people and that people struggle — and sometimes even fail. When we start losing faith in humanity, however, seeing a Yid who is striving to overcome their challenges can renew our faith. Yiddishkeit and Yidden are truly beautiful.

I get really embarrassed and shy when I meet someone who knew me before I reached the stage I am currently in. I’m not the same person I was previously, and I really don’t like it when people remind me of the struggle to fit in. Please don’t bring up the early stages of my teshuvah process.

My journey brought me through several communities until I got to the place where I finally felt at home. At each stage I had different mashpias, and though I stopped confiding in several who were previously of great help to me, it doesn’t mean that I no longer appreciate what they did. It just means that I’ve grown, and my needs have changed.

236 / THE MONSEY VIEW / May 12, 2021 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484

I’ve spent many years second-guessing myself, trying desperately to blend in. But as I became comfortable in my own skin, I realized that I’ll never think exactly like the rest of the community, and that’s okay. Hashem created me and gave me my specific background because that’s what’s best for me. As long as I’m following halacha, I don’t have to be embarrassed to be different — but many people like me are embarrassed in the beginning.

Please never correct me in public. I’m already self-conscious; being corrected in public is mortifying! And if you do have to correct me, please do it with incredible kindness.

Now that I’ve been frum for a long time, I can say that geirim and baalei teshuvah need guidance their whole lives, for every stage and every hurdle. Having people to look up to and to support us is so important. As a matter of fact, everyone needs guidance. “Asei lecha rav,” right?

Camp Hikon for Yeshiva Boys Announces Opening Season Does spending the summer months just the same as last year seem discordant with the waves of infection, climate chaos and food insecurity sweeping humanity? How about a summer camp that actually teaches kids how to survive and thrive in the coming “new normal”? Yeshivos are practiced in teaching our youth the skills they would use in settled society. But it’s blindingly obvious that the coming years will see the emergence of a society that’s anything but settled. The skills our young people will need to tackle the systematic medical, political, economic, and environmental crises which materialize and are compounded almost daily have little in common with Regents subjects. But it’s hard to imagine the Board of Regents taking this matter seriously, and it’s equally hard to imagine Yeshivos setting aside the Regents Exams anytime soon. Fortunately, there are still a couple of months left in the year when this new skill set can get the consideration it justly deserves. What sorts of skills should we be teaching? First, enhanced memory skills will be critical in a world in which technology suddenly ceases to operate, as recently happened in Puerto Rico and Texas. Second, our youth must learn how to be part of a cohesive group. As nations decline, government power will fade and lawlessness will proliferate. People will have to learn to look to their local group for protection. Third, we have to teach where food comes from. Commercial food is not always the best choice even when available, and it will most assuredly not be, thanks to the fragility or our complex global supply chains in an increasingly unstable world. Of course, stocking up on canned goods is a start, but it’s critical to know how food is prepared and preserved. Fourth, the ongoing assault on the environment and the escalation of extreme weather events implies that it should no longer be expected that people will remain settled in their communities for decades, but must be prepared to be on the move. We must be light on our feet as well as being light on the land. This best way to accomplish this is using the natural building techniques of our ancestors and sourcing mostly local materials found onsite.

CAMP HIKON FOR YESHIVA BOYS is being established this summer to meet all of these goals. (A girls division is also in the works.)

1. You must always have a valid ID to enter the hospital. 2. Most hospitals allow only one visitor per day to stay 4 – 6 hours. 3. Once a visitor leaves the patient’s floor, some facilities won’t allow you to go back up again, even if it’s within the allotted visiting hours. 4.

Since Har Sinai, when we received the priceless gift of the Torah, its precious teachings have been scrupulously passed down in the form of the holiest of objects: the Sefer Torah. It’s been said that even as the Yidden have kept the Torah, the Torah has kept and protected the Yidden. Therefore, it’s only right that we have a body of law and custom that ensures we fittingly protect this most valuable of gifts.

An Exclusive Residence We honor the Torah by giving it an exclusive residence. The aron kodesh, or any cabinet in which a Torah is kept, should contain nothing but Sifrei Torah and their ornamental and protective coverings. Speaking of which, while all Jewish communities “dress” their Sifrei Torah in elegant “clothing,” those coverings vary from the elaborately embroidered velvet mantels found in Ashkenazi shuls, to the elegant and freestanding upright wooden or

silver cases generally used by the Sefardim. In Jerusalem’s iconic Moussaieff shtieblach, the elevated wall shelves are lined with “retired” Torah cases, in an elegant and regal testimony to generations of reverence shown to the Sifrei Torah they once guarded. Besides the mantel, the typical “dress” of an Ashkenazi Sefer Torah consists of several parts. The gartel, or belt, is the sash used to keep the Torah scroll closed and secured beneath its velvet mantel. While this was once tied, today’s gartlach


often utilize interlocking clips or Velcro fasteners to keep the Sifrei Torah closed. In ancient times, and in some communities today, the Torah is bound with a wide cloth, or wimple. When a Sefer Torah is found to be pasul, its gartel is tied on the outside of its velvet covering, a reminder that this Sefer Torah is unfit to be used until it is repaired. The kesser, or crown, typically silver and often adorned with bells, poignantly proclaims the grandeur of our holiest object. Generally used on Shabbos and yom tov, it is placed atop the wooden shafts of the atzei chaim, which extend above the scroll. The breastplate is an additional decorative item often used together with the crown. Typically made of ornately engraved silver, it is attached to a thin chain and hangs from the atzei chaim over the front of the mantel. The yad, or “hand,” is the pointer that the baal korei uses to help the person called to the Torah follow the words as he reads. Usually made of silver and about eight inches long, the end of this rod is often shaped like a hand with its index finger pointing. It, too, has a chain attached to its other end, which is draped over the Sefer Torah when carried.

Protect With Respect One of the ways we guard a Sefer Torah is by protecting its dignity. Just as we wouldn’t act light-headedly or disrespectfully in front of an important, dignified person, neither should we do so in

front of a Sefer Torah. One must be appropriately dressed in any room in which a Torah scroll is found, and just as we stand up in honor of great talmidei chachamim, we likewise rise and stand when seeing a Torah scroll being lifted or carried. In famous art museums, great precautions are taken so no one touches any of the masterpieces hanging on their walls. So too, l’havdil, we may not directly touch the parchment of a Sefer Torah. Instead, when it must be adjusted, or when the scroll is being lifted, people grasp it by means of a tallis, and some, according to a kabbalistic custom, grasp even its atzei chaim through an intervening tallis. Of course, a Sefer Torah may be touched in the course of a needed repair. It’s a sign of respect and a display of concern about someone’s safety when they are escorted when they travel. So, too, when a Torah is transported, it should be personally accompanied by someone who holds it in

248 / THE MONSEY VIEW / May 12, 2021 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484

While Sifrei Torah are given the highest level of honor and protection, all printed Torah books must also be shown fitting respect. However, among those there is a hierarchy of kavod, which often plays itself out practically in regard to which types of works we may place or stack upon others. Level one is the Chumash. One should not place any other seforim on top of a Chumash, but one Chumash may be stacked on top of another. Below this are Neviim and Kesuvim, upon which a Chumash may be placed, and one book of Nach may be placed on top of another. After this are works of Torah Sheba’al Peh. Most hold that one may place any work of Torah Sheba’al Peh on top of another, regardless of chronology. What about siddurim? There are varying opinions concerning their place in the hierarchy. Some say the siddur has the status of Neviim and Kesuvim, which means that one should not place a work of Torah Sheba’al Peh on top of a siddur. Others say they have a status lower than that of Torah Sheba’al Peh. As always, one should consult their rav concerning practical halacha.


his arms for the entire trip, whenever possible. When it’s being transferred from one shul to another, it should be escorted by a minyan of ten men. It should certainly be protected from the elements; in one shul where I danced on Simchas Torah, they wrapped all the Sifrei Torah in plastic wrap (underneath their mantels) to protect them from perspiration.

PAINT COLORS

MATTER

A Final Honor When something precious falls to the floor, it isn’t merely picked up and the incident shrugged off. Even greater is the reaction in the unfortunate event of the inadvertent dropping of this most precious of objects. In fact, those who witness this, and especially the one who dropped it, are called upon to fast for at least one day. Some fast for 40 days, from dawn to dusk, not necessarily consecutively, while others say that in our later, weaker generations, it is sufficient to give tzedakah in lieu of fasting. Should one witness the far more egregious act of a Sefer Torah being willfully burned or desecrated, chas v’shalom, he should tear his clothing as he would upon mourning a close relative. Our enemies throughout the ages have made a point of trying to break our spirits through debasing Torah scrolls, and Jewish lore is replete with stories of Yidden, even those seemingly not pious, who were moser nefesh rather than allowing themselves to be compelled to participate in committing such atrocities. A great sign of esteem is the posthumous respect given to the dead. Likewise, when a Sefer Torah becomes unusable, through age or wear and tear, it is given its final honor by being properly wrapped and buried, preferably together with the burial of a talmid chacham. Tearful funerals have been held throughout history in the honor of burned or desecrated scrolls. ALL THESE examples of care and veneration that we Yidden show the Sefer Torah demonstrate that which we feel toward He who gave the Torah to us on that first Shavuos long ago and to its precious teachings, which will continue to guide us ad bi’as go’el and beyond.

I

sat straight-backed, anxiously watching my children’s little heads drooping one by one as they each fell into a deep sleep. I wondered what I’d been thinking when I told my husband that sure, I could travel home with all the kids and without his help. It was on a winter Motzei Shabbos, and I was on the way back to Monsey after having spent a most meaningful and beautiful Shabbos at the outof-town yeshivah where my husband served as a maggid shiur. Since the yeshivah was housed in an extremely secluded area, uninhabited by any frum families, it was arranged for married staff to be on premises at all time both to supervise and to ensure the safety of the boys. Some mashgichim and their families moved into a building on campus for several months; others would take rotating shifts for a few days or a weekend, often leaving their families behind. My husband, though very dedicated and involved in the yeshivah, was among the youngest on staff. Until now, we’d never been asked to take on a Shabbos shift. We enjoyed that special Shabbos together. Other than the in-house noise created by my energetic brood, the place was deserted. Through the oversized windows, we were treated to a winter wonderland: a view of the

vast, snow-blanketed property, set against an evergreen-lined backdrop. We even got to enjoy the graceful sight of six deer taking a leisurely Shabbos afternoon stroll through the expansive backyard, to the delight of our children. (This story took place over twenty years ago, before Monsey was the official place of residence for deer, and when ticks and lyme disease were mere dictionary words to most of us.) My husband was busy running between the yeshivah building and our lodgings throughout Shabbos, alternating between tending to his boys and giving attention to our little ones, and I had plenty of mommy time with the kids. We played games, ate lots of

we were loading everything into the van, however, I noticed my husband’s worn and exhausted face as he stifled one yawn after another. That’s when I realized that I was expecting him to make the trip back with us, only to return a mere few hours later, with barely a chance to catch a wisp of sleep in between. Since I’m more of a doer than a thinker, I’m often surprised to find that I’ve wedged myself into situations that are difficult to get out of, without realizing what the repercussions would be. This time, though, I was well aware that this offer would mean having to deal with a difficult, chaotic half-hour of getting everyone into the

The humor was lost on me as I wondered anxiously how on Earth I would possibly manage to transport my four sleeping angels, a carriage, and a suitcase up two flights of steps.

goodies, and acted silly all around, and the kids loved the experience. They even got to visit Tatty’s yeshivah, where some friendly bachurim showered them with candies and attention and treated them like VIPs. Our original plan had been to return home on Motzei Shabbos, and for my husband to catch a ride back to yeshivah for seder the next morning. As

But the tradeoff would be most worthwhile: my selfless act would enable my husband to start his week more calmly, and his tight learning schedule would not be affected by a lack of sleep and structure.

way. Our driver, an eccentric bachelor with a wry sense of humor, entertained the other passengers, two serious avreichim who were engrossed in a deep sugya but were kind enough to respond with the recognition he sorely needed. The humor was lost on me as I wondered anxiously how on earth I would possibly manage to transport my four sleeping angels, a stroller and a suitcase up two flights of steps. I encouraged myself that I did this only for the sake of Torah and so that my husband should be able to learn with clarity, and that Hashem would surely help. This was in the pre–cell phone era. I had no means of communicating with anyone who would be able to assist me. I tried to catch the driver’s attention to see if he would drop me off first so that I could leave some of my kids in the van while I took the others into our home, but he was in comedian mode, wrapped in an impenetrable bubble of mirth. He dropped off one yungerman and then the other, leaving my family as the last stop. As the driver neared the front of the multi-family complex we lived in, from where I was able to access my apartment only via a very long, paved walkway, I tried telling the driver to go around the corner to the main driveway, where I’d be much closer to my apartment door. But he was busy vocalizing a chazanus rendition, oblivious to my desperate pleas. We made a sharp turn toward my house. I desperately tried shaking my seven-year-old awake, but could not rouse him from his slumbering state. The van came to an abrupt stop. “Rebbetzin,” the driver yelled, “here we are! Make it quick ‘cuz it’s late for me, too! I also want to sleep like your kids.” I blinked back some uninvited tears and pushed the van door open. And then I noticed them: two figures engrossed in deep conversation under the glow of the street lamp near my home. Hearing the creak of the rusty van door being opened, they turned around. Their familiar faces were a balm to my palpitating heart. Relief washed over me. It was my dear mother and her sister, obviously on their way home from my widowed grandfather, where they usually spent melaveh malkah. They noticed me and walked toward the van. Speechlessly, I handed the baby to my mother as my aunt sleep-walked my toddler to my door. I then proceeded to rustle the two big ones awake. I struggled to get my daughter out of the confines of the seat belt when, as if in a dream, I heard my sister telling me that she was there to help. She was returning from a school function with a friend and my mother had met them on the very path leading to my house and sent them to the rescue. I walked up to my apartment unburdened, one hand holding my semi-sleeping son, the other hand wheeling a lightweight suitcase. But I was full and bursting with gratitude and awe at this nocturnal hashgacha pratis. The exact coordination of timing, with such precision, could have been orchestrated only by the One Who is meichin metzadei gaver. And I knew, without a doubt, that the zechus of limud haTorah and my sincere sacrifice for it had been noticed, recorded and rewarded.

It was the barking cough that woke me at 5:30 in the morning. I got out of bed for the croup ritual that had been breaking up my sleep into two-hour increments the past few nights. My little son coughed and cried, frightened by the constriction. He pointed in the direction of the bathroom, mumbling “shower” between barks. He, too, knew the ritual by now. First the steam, then the cold. I closed the bathroom door behind us, sat him on my lap, and turned on the hot shower. I let it run until the entire room steamed up, and as the vapor entered his airways, he started to relax in my arms. I turned off the shower, bundled my son up to his nose in warmth, and donned my toastiest outerwear. Finally I stepped out onto the porch. The air was frigid, the temperature having dropped to less than 10 degrees. The winds whipped mercilessly at us, but I knew that if I didn’t want the entire family awake before the first rays of the sun appeared, I had to somehow lull my stubborn little guy back to sleep right here in the great frigid outdoors. There was an icy grip on my heart as I looked around at the still, silent street. I took in the darkened windows, the black sky, the drawn shades. Who knew which undesirable elements were lurking in the shadows? Behind the garbage cans and cars? My brain saw every recent and not-so-recent tragedy replay itself, and I shuddered. The clock was inching closer to 6:00 a.m. I circled the driveway, but my little one didn’t like it. “Walk! Walk!” he insisted, and the swathes of blankets moved as his fist pounded under all those layers. Almost numb from cold, I was desperate enough to step out of my comfort zone and onto the sidewalk, where I was completely at the mercy of the passing cars with potential no-goodniks in them. Soon home was out of sight, and I heard an engine rumble and come closer. I shivered, bracing myself for attack. And then I saw him: a man, shawl pulled tight, ambling down the darkened street, a sefer lovingly tucked under his arm, his tefillin bag in the other. I looked at him in awe and relief, and followed him from a distance so no ambusher would dare seek me out.

And then, a Sienna to my right sputtered to life. I jumped, startled, but its driver soon came down the steps, warm cup in hand, braving the cold to ride to shul and attend his daily shiur. I relaxed, no longer on the lookout for danger. People were actually up at this unearthly hour. As the winter sun shyly peeked out to herald a new day, a bus approached. I watched the bus driver, up and about in a world still wrapped in slumber, slowing down and picking up his first passenger: a young boy who hurtled straight from the front door of his house to the bus, his mother waving to him in the dawn air. I stopped, wonderstruck, suddenly oblivious to the whipping wind, to the icy hold the temperature had on my entire body, and stared. I stared as cars rode by, their drivers headed to shul; I stared as men, bracing against the cold, walked down the street; as bachurim and bachurim-to-be stamped the sleep out of their eyes and hurried out. And I was warmed. Warmed by the sight of so many

And I was warmed. Warmed by the sight of so many people tearing themselves out of bed on the coldest day of the year to learn Torah.

262 / THE MONSEY VIEW

people tearing themselves out of bed on the coldest day of the year to learn Torah. I was touched by the mother who was up with her son to see him off; by the drivers who brushed off their tiredness to pick up their young but determined passengers. I was inspired by the baalei batim who woke up before the sun did to attend a prework shiur. Snapping out of this trance, I realized my baby was asleep. Hashem, I whispered, slowly wheeling the stroller in the direction of home, help me instill in my sons, too, the thirst for Torah. May they grow to love Your Torah, and may they be warmed by its light. May this be the reason they rise to start another day. Choked with the greatness of the everyday Yid and the longing to be part of something so sublime, I bumped my future talmid chacham up the stairs.

Do you Know that we are already at the Keitz Megulah?'" -excerpt from Chapter 28 What exactly is the Keitz Megulah (lit.

FAMOUS FIRSTS

ARTSCROLL HEADQUARTERS • Moved to Coney Island Avenue, Brooklyn: 1978 • Moved to Second Avenue, Brooklyn: 1989

> First ArtScroll book: Megillas Esther | Year published: 1976

• Moved to Rahway, NJ: 2020

> ArtScroll’s first halacha sefer was published in 1986. It was The Radiance of Shabbos, by Rabbi Simcha Bunim Cohen. > ArtScroll’s first cookbook was published in 2003. In the 18 years since, they’ve published 36 cookbooks!

A NAME ON THE COVER HANDMADE AND HOLY Many seforim (Gemara, Midrash, Mikraos Gedolos, etc) have painted edges. They are all painted by hand, using sponges and different shades of paint, in a process that’s fascinating to watch.

IN THE WORKS Among the current major projects are: > English Talmud Yerushalmi > Hebrew Talmud Yerushalmi > French Talmud Bavli > Ein Yaakov

270 / THE MONSEY VIEW

> Tosafos > Hebrew Sefer HaChinuch > Derashas HaRan > Zera Shimshon > The Weekly Parashah

The names on the cover are visionary donors who share ArtScroll’s passion to spread Torah throughout the world. They understand the need to remove the language barrier that until now has prevented many people from studying Torah.


What are the differences among ArtScroll, Mesorah Publications and Mesorah Heritage Foundation? ArtScroll Studios was a graphic arts, typesetting and design company owned by Rabbi Meir Zlotowitz before he started publishing seforim. He published Megillas Esther under the ArtScroll name. When Rabbi Zlotowitz partnered with Rabbi Nosson Scherman and Rabbi Sheah Brander to do book publishing, they started Mesorah Publications, but they kept the ArtScroll imprint. The Mesorah Heritage Foundation is an independent not-for-profit that helps fund the tremendous amount of scholarship that goes into ArtScroll’s serious seforim, thereby making the sefer affordable for people. For example, a college textbook the size of one ArtScroll Gemara volume would cost well over one hundred dollars, but ArtScroll Mesorah can sell a Gemara at an affordable price only because the writing is subsidized by grants from the Foundation.

IN COMPLETION ArtScroll recently completed a magnificent Mikraos Gedolos Tanach and Hebrew Mishnayos, both of which are popular around the world and in communities across the religious spectrum.

DATES AND DATA ArtScroll started their own bindery in 1984 and expanded to on-site printing in 2009.

The independent (non-employee) author with the most titles: Rabbi Abraham J. Twerski, MD

Over 100 talmidei chachamim work on the Foundation’s projects.

To date, ArtScroll Mesorah has printed about 20 different Pirkei Avos.

A WORLDWIDE INFLUENCE ArtScroll reaches all the corners of the world. They have wholesale distributors in Eretz Yisroel, Europe and — believe or not — in Australia and South Africa! They also ship directly to countries in Central and South America and everywhere else around the globe. It has been said, rather aptly, that “Wherever there is a Jew, there is ArtScroll.”

A CLOSING MESSAGE FROM ARTSCROLL: We see it as a great zechus to be able to be marbitz Torah. Indeed, the Torah is the great me’acheid of Klal Yisroel, and we see how our seforim are accepted and used, baruch Hashem, by everyone, from people who are not yet frum to gedolei Yisroel; from more modern communities to the most chareidi groups. Even the general interest books we publish reflect Torah hashkafos, and we feel privileged to fill the need for such books and to continue in our endeavors of harbatzas haTorah.

UncoveringTH ETruth Klal Yisroel is going through a very difficult period. So many people were sick, so many were niftar. We need to be ‫מפשפש במעשינו‬, examine our deeds, and try to figure out the message that Hashem is sending us. Interestingly, the name of the pandemic is corona, the Latin for crown - the virus looks like a crown. What is Hashem’s message to us in that the virus has the appearance of a crown? A reason might be that it is leading us to examine our crown. The crown of a Jewish woman is the ‫מצוה‬ of ‫כסוי ראש‬. Is our crown healthy and strong, or is it sickly, weak, and full of problems. We all remember that 17 years ago, in 2004, there was a big uproar in the chareidi community and a psak halacha by the leading poskim of our generation (see center) who all ruled that shaitels made from the hair that came from the temples of idol worship in India were forbidden to wear. The seriousness of the ‫ איסור‬is ‫חמורות‬ ‫שבחמורות‬. Every time a woman puts on her head a shaitel coming from ‫עבודה זרה‬, she is transgressing two ‫לאוין דאורייתא‬, every single time ‫(רמב”ם‬ )’‫הלכות עבודה זרה פרק ז’ הלכה ב‬. Several Rabbonim have spoken publicly recently and said that this ‫ עבירה‬can also affect the ‫תפילות ובקשות‬ of women in that when they daven, their tefillos will not reach the heavenly throne. All the tefillos the ehrliche women, wives and mothers daven

for the success of their husbands and Yiddish nachas from their children will be blocked. Yiddishe mamas want to be ehrlich, they want to do ‘‫רצון ד‬, and if they would know that the shaitels made from so-called European, Ukrainian and Brazilian hair, etc. are really, in fact, Indian temple hair, and is merely being relabeled with new names, they surely would not want to wear such forbidden wigs.

The question is: Is the hair in my shaitel really from a kosher origin or is it really from temple hair? To answer, ‫לתועלת הציבור‬, we will try to uncover the dry facts, so every person can make their own educated decision based on the true facts. To ask any questions or to receive a presentation with more info. please send an email to: azinwigs@gmail.com. So many additional people are being diagnosed every week with the dreaded illness whose treatment protocol usually makes the person’s human hair fall out. Might that also not be a message that there is a major problem with our human hair sheitels? There are good quality 100% synthetic wigs on the market that are free of any suspicion of idol worship. Speak to your shaitel macher. many ehrliche people who examined the evidence have already switched to synthetic. May it be a zechus for all of Klal Yisroel to have desperately needed Refuos and Yeshuos.

There is a very serious aveira for which one must give up one’s life rather than ‫ ח”ו‬transgress it – ‫ יהרג ואל יעבור‬- that is widespread among thousands of ehrliche women because of lack of knowledge. Perhaps this is one of the reasons that so many tzaros are befalling us?

?‫איזה דבר מפורש בחז"ל שמביא חרון אף בעולם‬

"‫ חרון אף בעולם‬,‫"כל זמן שיש ע"ז בעולם‬ .'‫נחפשה דרכנו ונשובה עד ה‬...‫עורו ישנים משינתכם‬ !‫משכו ידיכם מעבודה זרה‬ 95% OF VIRGIN HAIR ORIGINATES FROM THE TEMPLES IN INDIA! THAT’S A FACT!

)‫(דברים יג"יח" רש"י בשם חז"ל‬

Women in Brazil, Peru, Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Russia, etc. are NOT CUTTING THEIR HAIR OFF! There might be a few who do it due to financial distress, but not enough to supply so many different “hair” companies with 8-40” in multiple different patterns over and over again. Real virgin hair from those countries is ExTREmEly RARE and extremely expensive! It’s a simple case of supply and demand. Also, the collection methods in those countries can be very unethical forcing women to cut their hair off. The truth is there’s only one country on planet Earth that has a large enough population to supply the hair industry, and that’s India! Only India has millions of Hindu women who willingly stand in line at the temples, and sacrifice their hair because of religious beliefs. FUN FACT: There are more Hindu women in India that believe in the practice of sacrificing hair, than the ENTIRE populations of Brazil, Peru, and Malaysia COmBINED! You ladies still think people selling so-called “Brazilian” hair for ridiculously low prices have real virgin hair that came from a Brazilian woman’s head? We highly doubt it... PROVE US WRONG AND WE WIll GIVE yOU FREE HAIR!!!

Source #1 Because big money is involved there are many lies in the industry. I personally know people who buy indian hair and then sell them to Jewish businessmen claiming the hair is “kosher” and is from “european” countries. Unfortunately, this is the “norm” in the industry. It is my professional opinion that 98% of the hair sold worldwide is originally sourced from indian temple hair.

Looking forward to becoming your trusted supplier. To begin the long association I would begin by honestly informing you that brazilian and other origin hair do not exist. Since buyers ask for these hair, we too have to use such names and sell. It is a farce to claim authentic brazilian and other hair being made in India or China. All hair are Indian. We inform every buyer thruthfully that the origin of all hair is india. We sell with these origin names because buyers ask for these hair. We have always honestly informed our buyers about this even when the buyer has taken business to the next seller who claims to have genuine Brazilian. We inform you also that all hair are of indian origin.

• Tirupati is the richest Indian temple. There are huge rooms where hundreds of pilgrims are shaved at the same time in a sort of assembly line. They want to make a sacrifice to their god and would not take any money for it. • Indian hair is considered the best stand-in for European hair in the market for its quality and length. • There are no regulations whatsoever in the hair industry. Thus, many countries will re-label indian hair as their own, that includes Russia, Europe, Brazil, Peru, China, Bolivia, Malaysia, Italy, Indonesia, Ukraine, and many more. • Raw and processed hair is a billion dollar industry saturated with scams and corruption. • Although there are some women in poor villages who will sell their hair, this is a very small minority. • 98% of all human hair in the world originates from indian temple hair. That includes all colors, dark hair, light hair, as well as color-treated blond hair. – Mr. Vince Selva, Owner of Indo Asian Human Hair Int. Inc.
