If you are interested in taking this honor, please call Joe Doniger at 781-910-7601 or email us at MinyanRangers@bnaitikvahma.org at least two
days in advance and we’ll help make arrangements with that night’s minyan leader.

Words From Our Temple President Natalie Weinberg njwteach@aol.com
781-341-4267
I can’t believe how quickly summer is speeding by. For the past few months, I’ve been asking you what kinds of things would you like to do for B’nai Tikvah. What will it be? Are you going to join the Adult Education Committee? They think of wonderful programs and are always looking for more ideas. Call Janet Silberberg or Robin Zoll.
Want to get involved in the Road Race? It’s October 24. We need sponsorships, gift certificates, runners, and lots of workers. Call Karen Reiser to get involved.
Want to participate in services? Contact Cantor Grossman. He’d love to find Torah and Haftorah readers.
The holidays are coming. Want to volunteer to usher. Just let Adrea know in the office. She’ll add you to the growing list.
Would you like a music program? Make a suggestion, chair it, and we’ll help. It’s not hard. We’re going to have a Chanukah celebration. We need you to bring your ideas and excitement. Contact Michelle Langmead.
We’re having a Mitzvah Day on August 1st. Come to B’nai
Tikvah and help. Join us with your friends. We can accomplish something AND have some fun. Besides we can all use a mitzvah or two these days.
The High Holidays are fast approaching. You’ve received a great deal of information that you must be considering. Have you bought your seats? Remember you must be vaccinated.
Have you put your name in the High Holiday Card? Have you put your family names in the Yizkor book? Have you been thinking of your High Holiday Pledge amount?
I know this concept is difficult for some and maybe a little uncomfortable for others but I would be remiss not to remind you that there are many ways to keep this community functioning at all levels. There are everyday events that keep us close to B’nai Tikvah: some events are small, some are big, some are joyous, some unfortunately are sad. For each event, it’s important that we are there for each other - a hand to reach out, a shoulder to lean on, a smile to share.
YOU CAN BE THE ONE THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE IN SOME WAY!
B’shalom, Natalie

Rabbinic Reflections from Rabbi Gordon rabbi@bnaitikvahma.org
Rosh Hashanah is always the same date (Tishrei I) but it comes early this year. The eve of the New Year is celebrated on Monday night,
September 6, the end of Labor Day Weekend. As a result our communal preparation for the holiday is a bit truncated and the month of Elul, the time of introspection, coincides with our final weeks of summer this month. To help you begin the process of preparing for a meaningful holiday season, I offer some short texts and thought questions to guide your reflections. Please consider printing this out and bringing it with you when you join us for services in person or on ZOOM. May our services bring both the comfort of the familiar and new challenges as we think together about how to make 5782 a year of health and safety, growing prosperity in our community and families and peace in America, Israel and our world.
Evaluating our own sins and those of others
* Aesop’s Fable: the Front and Back Pack
It happened long, long ago,
When God made the first humans.
Already at that time it was clear:
There would be not only good acts,
bad behavior was also to be expected.
Therefore God prepared one pouch and another pouch. One was hung on each person’s front and one on the back.
The backpack filled up quickly with all the bad things the person had done.
The frontpack filled up immediately – but with bad things that one’s neighbor had done: sins, crimes, and lies of other people.
Ever since, our eyes perceive clearly every sin perpetrated by others.
But we cannot distinguish our own sins because they accumulate behind us, hanging behind our backs.
* From: New Minyan Siddur
Remember every hurt ever done unto you and you will never again be able to smile.
Remember every painful experience of your life and the burden of memory will be oppressive beyond measure.
A midrash teaches us that God granted Adam and Eve an all-important blessing as they were about to leave the Garden of Eden:
“I give you,” God said, “the gift of forgetfulness.” Simcha, which means happiness, is spelled in Hebrew with the consonants SH-M-CH –Heh. They can be read
as Simcha (happiness) or as She- Macha (the one who wipes away) based on the verse form the prophet Isaiah 25:8: “Adonai will wipe away (Macha) the tears from all our faces.”
Everyone has moments of hurt and pain. We differ only in our abilities to forgive-and-forget or to forever harbor hatreds and grudges, thus destroying ourselves in the process.
* Some questions to consider at the turning of the year
Was there a time in the year of the COVID lockdown that you were able to more clearly see someone else’s faults than your own?
How might you work on being more attuned to your own mis-steps?
What effect does holding on to pain, anger and grudges have on you?
Finding our paths
A person had been wandering about in the forest for several days, unable to find a way out. Finally in the distance he saw another person approaching him and his heart filled with joy. He thought to himself: “Now surely I shall find a way out of the forest.” When they neared each other, he asked the other person, “Brother, will you please tell me the way out of the forest?”
The other replied: “Brother, I also do not know the way out, for I too have been wandering about here for many days. But this much I can tell you. Do not go the way I have gone, for I know that is not the way. Now come, let us search for the way out together.”
-Adapted from S.Y. Agnon, Days of Awe
How do we find our Parent who is in Heaven?
By good deeds and the study of Torah.
How does the Blessed Holy One find us – through love, through fellowship, through respect, through companionship, through truth, through peace, through bending the knee, through humility, through more study, through less commerce, through the personal service to our teachers, through discussion among the students, through a good heart, through decency, through No that is really No, and through Yes that is really Yes.
-Midrash Seder Eliyahu Rabbah 23

August 2021 click here to return to front page Koleinu 7
Some Questions to consider at the turning of the Year:
In the past year, did you work with others to find the right path together?
Who were your guides during the COVID lockdown?
What kind of choices might direct you towards a better path?
Might accepting imperfection (in yourself and in others) lead you to better relationships?
How can teshuvah/turning/repentance help you to start
this year in a better light?
SOME READINGS TO HELP
For those seeking some books to read as you think about the High Holidays, I would recommend:
Mahzor Lev Shalem. I was honored to serve for 12 years on the editorial committee that produced the Conservative movement’s new prayer book for the High Holidays. The mahzor is filled with alternative readings, introductions and accessible poetry. The translations are all new and reflect the Hebrew. Read around in it, consider it a resource and not only a libretto for our service.
Gail Twersky Reimer and Judith A. Kates, Beginning Anew: A Woman’s Companion to the High Holidays (Touchstone) offers an anthology of interpretations of core prayers and Torah readings.
Rabbi Alan Lew (z”l), This is Real and You are Completely Unprepared (Little, Brown), treats the High Holidays in the contexts of the full cycle of the
Dear Friend,
This Rosh Hashanah, your community is collaborating to lend a hand to members in need. Combined Jewish Philan-
thropies (CJP), Jewish Family Service of Metrowest (JFS), Jewish Family & Children’s Service (JF&CS), Yad Chessed,
and Yachad are all working together to provide complimentary, home-delivered meal boxes that will contain two
kosher meals to help celebrate the Jewish New Year with a sense of joy and nourishment.
As we observe Rosh Hashanah, we are hoping for an end to the pandemic, even as we are aware of its lingering
presence. We will concentrate our attention, funds, and efforts on providing celebratory meals to the many commu-
nity members facing hardship.
Households must live within the CJP catchment area to receive meals, which will be delivered by volunteers from
our participating partners. We regret that delivery cannot be provided outside of this area.
You or other leadership may use this link to sign up one or multiple households. This link may also be shared di-
rectly with appropriate households so that they can sign themselves up. Please do not post this link to your website
or share it in any group newsletters or emails to your community. Please note that the deadline to submit the
form is Monday, August 16.
Please reach out to us if you have questions.

The month of Elul is a month of preparation for Rosh
Hashanah and Yom Kippur. That’s why Jews blow the
shofar (almost) every day of the month.
Why Blow the Shofar?
For lots of reasons. Here’s one you might not know:
Blowing the shofar—which is actually a Rosh Hashanah
activity—for a month in advance confuses the
prosecuting angel, who now has no idea what day is
the real Rosh Hashanah.
Huh? How is blowing the shofar for a month going to
confuse the prosecuting angel? Nobody ever delivered
a Jewish calendar to his door? Wouldn’t the crafty
angel catch on after a few hundred years?
The Rebbe has a wonderful insight into this:
First of all, this isn’t the only time we’re out to
befuddle the prosecution. On Rosh Hashanah we blow
the shofar more than necessary, the Talmud tells us,
“to confuse the prosecuting angel.” On that Talmudic
passage, Rashi explains: When the prosecutor sees
how we cherish G‑d’s commandments—going far
beyond the strict requirements—he simply has nothing
to say.
Something similar happens
when we blow the shofar for
an entire month before Rosh
Hashanah. By doing so,
inevitably we’ll feel remorse
over past misdeeds and set ourselves upon a fresh
new path. If so, the case is already sealed—and we
won. G‑d has already inscribed us in the book of life
for the coming year—even before Rosh Hashanah. This
leaves the prosecutor confused. What’s left for him to
do when the trial date finally arrives?
That’s the meaning of “not knowing what day is Rosh
Hashanah”—he can no longer tell when the judgment
occurs. Because we proactively took care of the whole
thing on our own accord—sort of a backroom deal
between us and G‑d.
This is also why we do not blow on the day before
Rosh Hashanah: By that point we are so confident that
G‑d has accepted our sincere repentance during the
first 29 days that we do not even need to blow on the
last day of the month.
And the prosecution is out of a job.

THANK YOU
SOCIAL ACTION AND SOCIAL JUSTICE AT B’NAI TIKVAH
B’nai Tikvah is a community grounded in Jewish values acting together to change the world in a positive
way. We provide members of all ages and abilities with opportunities to carry out the mitzvah of Tikkun
Olam, repairing the world through actions that make the world a better place. All congregants are invited to
participate in our social action and social advocacy endeavors.
Social action projects include: social action Shabbats, an annual Mitzvah Day, voter registration drives,
collecting personal care items for women’s/homeless shelters in the area, food drives for Canton and
Randolph Food Pantries, and serving as the South Area distribution site for Jewish Family Table, the only kosher
food pantry in the area.
Due to the increase in world-wide antisemitism, we will be offering programming and resources to help
fight against this evil scourge. Opportunities will include actions we can take as individuals and as a
community so we can be effective in addressing this issue locally.
In our resolve to be more welcoming to all, we will also be implementing training on inclusion. Reaching
out as well as looking inward will help us become a stronger and more diverse community.
Anyone who is interested in receiving further information on our work, or would like to join the Social
Action Committee or participate in any of our endeavors, please contact co-chairs using info on page header.

While our students are at summer camps, dance classes, and at home relaxing, our teachers are busy at work getting ready for our new year.
The teachers and some of our L'dor V'dor tutors have been taking classes at the NEWCAJE annual conference. This is a three-week conference that has over 300 classes, workshops, and events for teachers. We are learning new ideas and ways to teach Hebrew, Holidays, and Torah. We are getting to meet teachers from all over the country and hear how they run their programs.
Once a week, I have been meeting with other principals and administrators about what works in their communities. I have learned something valuable: we are very fortunate! Our school may be small in size, but our ruah (spirit) shines. Our students enjoy coming to school and enjoy learning. Our teachers are open to learning new ideas and using them with our students. Our parents are involved in our school and bring their families to events. Our community supports us both financially (thank you to Brotherhood for your generous grants and scholarships) and by sharing feedback on how nice it is to see our students involved. I have described our religious school as mishpacha (family). Our students not only associate with the children in their grade, but they help and socialize with all the students. They enjoy talking to the rest of the community and respect their temple family. It takes a village, and each one of you are part of our religious school village.
A lot of exciting programs are in the works for this coming year. We have new students that will be joining us. As long as our covid numbers stay low and the students are in public school, we will be in person this year.
Most of our family programs and Sunday Fundays will be in-person. We may still be having programs and cooking classes on Zoom. We will be offering programs for not only our enrolled families, but also for grandparents so they can bring their grandchildren to our community for learning experiences.
A new teen program for our students in grades 8-12 will be offered. This program will give our teens the opportunity to interact with others and learn about higher level Jewish ideas. Cantor Josh and I will be leading the program that will be beginning after the High Holidays. Parents who have not yet registered their students please do so. This is a free program.
We will have High Holiday programs in-person and if parents want to join us for our abbreviated service, they are welcome to attend. Our playroom for young children 5 and under will be available, for parents to have a time to play with their children using High Holiday themed materials. Our teens will have a room available if they need a break from the adult services.
I am excited for this year and anticipate we will be able to do great things as we will now be together again.

B'nai Tikvah sponsored 2 lectures via Zoom in June to
educate temple members and other attendees about
Israel and to encourage people to commit to taking
the trip to Israel this fall being led by Rabbi Gordon.
Dr. Elan Ezrachi, a consultant who teaches at Hafia
University, spoke on "My Jerusalem" (June 6) which
traced the changing political controls over various
parts of Jerusalem and the demographic changes
within the city from the end of the British Mandate
over the country to the current date. Dr. Ezrachi
mentioned the relative speed in which the IDF
liberated East Jerusalem from the Jordanians during
the 6 Day War in June 1967 giving the Israelis
access to holy sites including the Western Wall , plus
access to Mt. Olives & Mt. Scopus (where the Hebrew
University & Hadassah Hospital original sites were
located). Prior to that war the IDF had to protect
those sites on Mt. Scopus as they were surrounded
by enemy territory. Additional campuses of these 2
institutions were built within the secure borders of
Israel. Much rebuilding and cleanups were needed in
East Jerusalem after the end of the '67 war as the
Jordanians did not maintain that area well Since then
commercial technological and residential growth has
been substantial. Dr. Ezrachi's book on this topic
should be available soon in English translation.
Israel Lecture Recaps By Stan Zoll
Prof Guy Ben Porat of Ben
Gurion University of the
Negev spoke on Religious
Pluralism and Israeli Politics
(June 13). He traced the
history of the Orthodox establishment over religious
courts and regulations over life ceremonial events
and over religion-related business
activities resulting from the fact that the orthodox
religious parties were part of the ruling government
coalition for most of Israel's existence regardless of
which party led the coalition. Yet by the 1980s
demographic and socio-economic. changes within
Israel's population as well as globalization influences
started a trend toward more secularization within the
population. Some previous governing coalition
attempts to force young Haredim to serve in the IDF
as other young Israelis were required to do indicate a
willingness to consider a change in these regulations.
Prof. Ben-Porat's research findings on this topic can
be found in his book "Between State & Synagogue.
Recordings of both lectures are accessible via link in
June 6 Chai Lights so you can see and hear more
comprehensive information.
