¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨

Parshat Behalotcha takes us from a steady ride on the way to Eretz Yisroel to an abrupt halt and a delay of forty years to the Promised Land. The Parsha begins with the beautiful ceremony of the lighting of the menorah followed by the carrying of the Aron Kodesh and then: the rebellion of the manna, the scandal of the spies, Korach’s attempted coup; all in a matter of a few Parshiot and so soon after a seemingly quick entry to Eretz Yisroel.

We are living in very challenging times. Just a few months ago the American economy was flying high, airplane travel was at its peak, people were confident and nothing seemed to hold us back. And then; Covid 19, George Floyd, the recession, Synagogue closings, and need we say more. Our plans hopes and goals have been temporarily shattered. Yet as the saying goes hopes springs eternal. Like the Bnei Yisroel who overcame the challenge while travelling in the cloud of Glory we shall attempt the same, albeit in our own bubble of social isolation but nevertheless with the same emunah, faith and hope in Hakodesh Baruch Hu.

Good Shabbos
Rabbi A. M. Abramson

REFUAH SH’LAIMAH:
To all those who are not well as well as those worldwide with this virus. We mention their names at each Torah reading and think about them in our private tefillos. Let Hashem hear our tefillos on their behalves, and all have a speedy recovery. If there is a choleh that needs a misheberach, please email their name to anshemotele@sbcglobal.net .
Since we are not at shul with Torah readings, in your private shmone esrai, you can include in the “Refaeinu” paragraph a special tefilla for the cholim that you have in mind.
