If We Pull Together We Can Complete Shas with Daf Hachaim! You know it by now: we've run into real funding challenges and we haven’t been able to make Megillah available. But we see a way a forward. And it doesn’t require a millionaire to get it done. If we can find just 1,800 individuals who will support Daf Hachaim at just $1 a day, we can complete Shas! That’s it! That’s all it will take for us to make Daf Hachaim available again to thousands of learners in over 100 countries. That’s all it will take to help us all learn, understand, and remember Gemara as never before. You may be someone who is blessed enough to help at the level of $1 a day. Or, you may be able to team up with a friend to divide the zechus of being one of those 1800 Gold Partners. Or maybe you can bring this zechus to others who would be willing to help make Daf Hachaim happen for all of Klal Yisrael. 1,800 people at just $1 a day. Together, we can make this happen.

[Aneinu] IDF Soldiers Need Bullet Proof Vests

o help buy Bulletproof Vests for IDF Soldiers go to:http://www.ohelmoshebaltimore.com/vest 100 Bullet Proof Vests Needed for the IDF, Please Help! Tweet (Monday, July 21st, 2014) unnamed (1)[Above Image: Yoni Oberstein with his mother, Mrs. Faige Oberstein] For budgetary and logistical reasons, some of the brave soldiers of the IDF are lacking proper or optimal safety equipment. Sadly, the casualties are far too high already, and we want to do all that we can to provide protection that could avoid further loss of life R’L. We have been in direct contact with Yoni, the son of Rabbi & Mrs. Oberstein of the Baltimore community, who is actively in service in Gaza. His answer to the offers for help from overseas was clear, they need more bullet proof vests. Yoni is currently in service as a member of the Chevra Kadisha, and along with his colleagues has the heartbreaking and dangerous task of entering hostile territory to retrieve and bring to burial any of our fallen brethren. Due to lacking resources, they, and many others, operate without bullet proof vests. In coordination with commanding officers on the ground, we wish to raise funds to provide as many bullet proof vests as we can to the soldiers engaged in this dangerous and conflict. Each vest costs approximately $1,534.00, and they are needed immediately. Please contribute generously. We are one people, and these are our brothers. Click here to donate now! Background…. Rabbi Elchonon Oberstein, a prominent Rabbi in the Baltimore community has a son, Yoni, serving in the IDF. After being contacted by Rabbi Yissochor Dov Ecihenstein, Rav of Merkaz Torah U’Tefila, with an offer of support, the following are some excerpts from Rabbi Oberstein of the events that followed. “Yoni said that no one would wear a vest if the others in their unit did not also have a vest. Secondly, he did tell me that the army is broke and can’t afford to provide them with vests. After some back and forth, he spoke to his MAGAD, which means the guy in charge, who was very enthusiastic that they desperately need them for Yoni’s unit. It is a matter of pikuach nefesh. Yoni suggested that Rabbi Eichenstein speak directly to the MAGAD to work it out and he did. He just told me that by 3 AM he will have all the information from the army how to go about it legally and fast. L’chatchila, they need 100 but 10 or more will also help. Now, to Yoni. He was in the infantry in the regular army but, in the reserves, they have made him part of the Chevra Kaddisha. That means that whenever one of our Jewish boys is, Rachmana litzlan, killed, Yoni is part of the team that retrieves their body or body parts. He said he has slept 2 hours in the last 48. Tragically, there have been casualties. He already found someone he knew. He also said that the Arabs, yemach shemom, know that the Jews will come back so they lie in wait. It is a very dangerous job. They really need the vests, NOW! He says that today they received their first 13 and so they can only send in a squad of 13 at a time. They use trained dogs at night to help them.” All funds collected will be pooled as one and forwarded to secure and deliver the protective equipment as quickly as possible. Please respond generously.

The Garden of Knowledge IS ON BRESLEV.CO.IL

Our dedicated soldiers are fighting a fierce war and a cruel enemy - every emuna book and CD that you purchase and distribute assures their victory we owe them our spiritual support! Brand New! The Garden of Knowledge Almost all of us have driving licenses, but few of us can explain how a car’s engine works. We all see, but few of us realize how the human eye operates. So if we can’t understand how our own car or eyes function, how can we possibly understand the secrets of creation? Rebbe Nachman of Breslev teaches that we must observe the wisdom that The Creator instilled in every creation, for by doing so, we connect to The Creator, for all wisdom comes from Him. The Book of Genesis, in its description of creation, contains inner secrets of life which are subtly alluded to within each of its words. Rabbi Shalom Arush has not merely written another elaboration of Torah, but has taken the light of Genesis, showing us how its inner messages can illuminate our daily lives. As such, The Garden of Knowledge is a guidebook to personal growth and spiritual well-being. No truth-seeker should be without this book. !!

[Aneinu] The Shmira Project: Protect an Israeli Soldier

The Shmira Project is a grassroots program that pairs IDF combat soldiers with Jews around the world who do acts of kindness, prayer or Torah learning to increase the soldier’s spiritual merit and protection. Israel is in a state of war with many of its neighbors, and even the ones with peace treaties have tremendous political turmoil and instability. Right now combat soldiers are in clear and present danger. These soldiers frequently go into hostile areas: patrolling Israel’s borders from terrorism abroad, and preempting terrorism from within. The Hebrew word “shmira” means “guarding” or “protecting”. In modern Hebrew, shmira also means guard duty. The Shmira Project is a person to person match that everyone can do. It follows the ancient practice of pairing physical effort with spiritual effort. The families of soldiers enjoy the reassurance of spiritual support for their children. Participants enjoy knowing that they bring about unity and connectedness. There are absolutely no fees. Take a name and take a shift of guard duty. There are several ways to sign up. Go to the sign up page Or In USA: For a soldier’s name through the automated system, text 410-575-4337. To contact the administrators, call or text 410-657-2433 Fax Israel: 02-540-0771 Thank you to all who participated in the Shmira Project during the November 2012 Gaza Crisis. During the first week of “Operation Pillar of Defense” in November, 2012, over 10,000 signed on. Each took the name of an IDF soldier or resident of Israel who was in danger. The response was swift and powerful. People came from 35 countries and offered messages of true inspiration and encouragement. Each and every person made a difference. “The unity is the protection.” said one Rabbi. Whenever you may think that the Jewish People are in disarray and alone, remember the response of this one week. {Matzav.com Israel News Bureau} --

Schottenstein Talmud Yerushalmi - English Edition [#25] - Tractate Taanis IS AT KESHER STAM

Join me in learning Yerushalmi Tannis L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire and for the soldiers on the ground in Gaza. For five generations of the Talmudic era, the great Sages of the Land of Israel flourished in the Galil. There, like the Sages of Babylonia, they debated, expounded, and applied the laws and principles of the Mishnah that were received at Sinai .The sacred learning of those years was gathered in the Talmud Yerushalmi ù The Jerusalem Tamud. They lived with Roman pogroms and persecution ù but the flame of Torah burned bright despite it all. Until about 350 C. E., when brutal Roman anti-Semitism decimated the Holy LandÆs yeshivos and silenced its voice of Torah. But the SagesÆ teachings live on in the Talmud Yerushalmi, just as the teachings of Babylonia live one in the Talmud Bavli ù The Babylonian Talmud. But while the Sages of Babylonia had another 150 years to redact, clarify and organize the text of the Babylonian Talmud, Roman persecution in the Holy Land made that impossible. Thus, the Jerusalem Talmud is exceedingly difficult, and ù despite its great significance û it has been a closed book to all but select, elite scholars. Now, thanks to the outstanding scholars who produced the classic Schottenstein Edition of Talmud Bavli, the lock is being removed on yet another treasure-house of Torah ShebÆal Peh, the Oral Law. This project has been enthusiastically welcomed and endorsed by Torah leaders in Israel and America.(FROM ARTSCROLL)KESHER STAM HAS THIS 20% OFF.

RAV KOOK ON Pinchas Part 2 : Zealotry for the Sake of Heaven

L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל And a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire Pinchas' Lineage When Pinchas saw a prince from the tribe of Shimon publicly cavorting with a Midianite princess, he took the law into his own hands. Using his spear, Pinchas killed them both. God praised his act of zealotry, rewarding him with the priesthood. "Pinchas, the son of Elazar, the son of Aaron the kohen, was the one who zealously took up My cause among the Israelites and turned My anger away from them." (Num. 25:11) Why does the Torah need to point out Pinchas' lineage here? This is particularly puzzling considering that the Torah just identified Pinchas a few verses earlier (25:7). The Midrash (Sanhedrin 82b) explains that the tribal leaders mocked Pinchas: 'His maternal grandfather [Jethro] fattened up calves for idolatrous sacrifices — and he had the audacity to murder a prince of Israel!' Therefore, the Torah publicized Pinchas' lineage through his father's side, Aaron the High Priest. This Midrash requires clarification. Why was it so important to respond to these disparaging comments? Furthermore, what does it help if one of Pinchas' grandfathers was the high priest - his other grandfather was still a reformed idolater!

RAV KOOK ON Pinchas Part 1: Genuine Zealotry

L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל And a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire "Pinchas... zealously avenged My cause among the Israelites.... Therefore, tell him that I have given him My covenant of peace." (Num. 25:11-12) Why did God present Pinchas, the archetypical zealot, with a covenant of peace? What was the nature of this covenant?

BAIS HAVAAD'S PARSHA PERSPECTIVES Parshas Balak:Did Bilaam Deserve to Get Paid? By: Rabbi Tzvi Price

L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל And a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire What would you say in the following case? A developer buys a tract of land near a mountain ridge. His plan is to build luxury summer homes on the site. He calls a construction company to come down to give an estimate on the cost to excavate the site for twelve houses. The owner of the company and his chief engineer come out to look at the site and the engineer realizes very quickly that he might not be able to do the job with the company’s equipment because that particular area around the mountain ridge is known to contain huge underground boulders. “We hit one of those and we’re out of luck,” says the engineer. “My equipment can’t handle a boulder that’s more than ten feet in diameter. After that, you’re going to have to call in a whole different kind of excavator who has much bigger equipment.” “What are the chances of that happening?” asks the developer. “Oh, about 50/50,” answers the engineer. “What do you think? Should we try it?”

L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל And a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire Long before “eye of the tiger” or “crouching tiger”, we were the crouching lion ready to spring into action. That’s how Balaam, the Midianite prophet envisioned Bnei Yisroel when Hashem foiled his attempts to curse us as Balak King of Moab had hired him to do. The entire verse is a study in parallel imagery and evokes much profound discussion among our commentators: “Behold! The people will arise like a lion cub and raise itself like a lion; it will not lie down until it consumes prey …” click here Summary by Channie Koplowitz Stein.

RABBI WEIN ON BALAK

L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל And a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire This week’s parsha offers us the opportunity to meet the unofficial founders of the Human Rights Organizations of our time. Here we see the ancestors of Kathleen Ashton, who is the head foreign affairs person of the European Union, the leaders of the Presbyterian Church in the United States, the left-leaning anti-Semitic professors of academia the world over, the neo-communist Putin and the rest of the well-meaning, ever protesting “friends” of the Jewish people and the State of Israel.

RABBI WEIN ON MODERNITY AND TRADITION

L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל And a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire The major challenge to all religions and certainly to Judaism over the past two centuries has been the religious reaction to the problems raised by modernity. Modernity encompasses but is not limited to technological progress, a global economy, ideas of personal and national freedom and a search for a more equitable distribution of wealth and well being amongst all human beings.

CHABAD.ORG OU TORAH and Leadership & Loyalty(Balak 5774) By Rabbi Jonathan Sacks

L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל And a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire Is leadership a set of skills, the ability to summon and command power? Or does it have an essentially moral dimension also? Can a bad man be a good leader, or does his badness compromise his leadership? That is the question raised by the key figure in this week’s Parshah, the pagan prophet Balaam.

RAV KOOK ON Balak Part 2: An Eternal People

L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל And a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire Together with Shema In the parashah of Balak, we find prophetic verses of exquisite beauty and an inspiring story of God's vigilant watch over the Jewish people. But to truly appreciate this Torah portion, consider this remarkable teaching of the Sages. The Talmud (Berachot 12b) relates that at one time the rabbis contemplated incorporating the parashah of Balak into the daily prayers, alongside the recitation of the Shema. This is truly astounding. What lesson is contained in the words of Balaam - a villainous prophet, steeped in blind hatred for the Jewish people — that could possibly compare to the Torah's most fundamental beliefs, as delineated in the Shema, the centerpiece of Jewish prayer?

RAV KOOK ON Balak Part : Eliminating Idolatry

L'ilui Nishmat גיל-עד מיכאל בן אופיר, יעקב נפתלי בן אברהם ואייל בן אוריאל And a zechus for those in Eretz Yisrael under rocket fire The true cure for this perilous attraction, however, is through greatness of Torah. The highest goal of Torah is the appearance of inner light in the human soul, as divine wisdom is applied to all the spheres that the soul is capable of assimilating — be it in thought, emotion, desires, and character traits. Even nowadays, poverty in Torah knowledge results in a weakness of spirit, similar to the spiritual darkness caused by idolatry. The world awaits redemption through greatness of Torah. Then idolatry will be truly defeated, and not merely subdued in a sealed metal cauldron.
