OPINION
& COMMENT
Spreading Kedushoh to All Areas of Life
The story goes that when the first group of shochetim
sent by Shearis Yisroel to South America came back to Eretz
Yisroel, one of their first moves was to visit the rabbonim
with a report of their work. Nothing of the sort had been
done up to then by a mehadrin hashgochoh: to go into a
non-Jewish meat factory overseas and shecht meat
according to the highest mehadrin standard.
A Truly Schwer Rambam: Medieval Science and Modern Man
by Mordecai Plaut
Ahavas Hashem is one of the six constant mitzvos. It is an
obligation upon every Jew, all the time. In addition we have
the additional mitzvah of Krias Shema which includes
as a prominent feature, in its third verse, the mention of
this obligation twice a day: in the morning and in the
evening. We begin and end each day with a recitation of the
mitzvah that we have to love Hashem.
Sacrificial Avodoh Zorah and Avodoh Zorah Itself
by HaRav Aharon Yeshaya Roter
We have been fortunate that in the sea of licentiousness that
surrounds us there are still valorous Jewish women who carry
on the tradition established at the time of the Golden Calf
of not worshiping idolatry. They were privileged to sanctify
Hashem's name in public when they cast their `ornaments'
behind their backs and donned the true Jewish ornaments upon
their head.
Proper Torah Chinuch
by HaRav Shimon Moshe Diskin
Part I
The kushya is well known: The gemora tells us
that after the Maccabees defeated the Romans they found a jug
of olive oil that was tohor in the Beis
Hamikdosh that bore the seal of the Cohen Godol. Although
that amount of olive oil was barely enough to burn one day,
it miraculously burned for eight days, until new tohor
olive oil was produced.
Politica: An Opposition in Favor
By E. Rauchberger
Disengagement opponents are trying every way possible to
thwart the plan from taking effect. They block roads,
organize demonstrations, hand out ribbons, stop cars, fill
intersections with signs and a long list of other activities
all aimed at swaying public opinion and influencing the
government to withdraw the plan.
