¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨
The logical laws articulated in Parshas Mishpatim may seem self explanatory. The truth is they make up the basic framework of the commandments. Without these foundations expressing the importance of respecting others as rights granted from Hashem the world would descend into chaos. In fact it did more than once but we especially remember the Holocaust as the most brutal violation of human decency ever perpetrated. Thus we carefully hold the tenets of Parshas Mishpatim to be among the most important not just for the Jewish people but for all human kind to emulate.

¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨

With today’s videos and twenty four hour news cycle coverage bombarding our computers and smart phones one might watch the same catastrophe over and over again to the point of despair. Case in point; the insurrection at the Capital. In fact, more to come once the impeachment trial begins in two weeks. Contrast that with the instructions as found in this week’s Parashas Beshalach to the Bnei Yisroel following the parting of the Sea of Reeds and the subsequent drowning of the pursuing Egyptian army. To combat the natural inclination to watch the disaster unfolding and the spoils of victory behind them, the Bnei Yisroel are instructed to look away and march onward. These sentiments remind us to as well to look forward and not dwell on the same scenes. Yes, its important to remember and hold perpetrators accountable, but one should not let their lives be overtaken by events. The way to Sinai requires discipline and perseverance. That was the task of the Bnei Yisroel in this coming week’s Parashas Beshalach and that is our obligation today.

¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨

The importance of teaching our children about the slavery in Egypt and its eventual liberation is emphasized in this week’s parshas Bo. This mitzvah constitutes the essence of the Passover Seder and its yearly celebration. We see and now understand that our future follows our the next generations accomplishments, spiritual and existential. This week the Kehilla Fund will be soliciting our community for funds for Jewish education. Please be generous “L’maan Yadu Doroseicham” so that the generations will know!

¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨

The relationship between the Jewish people and Hashem has been transformed in this week’s Parsha. While the Egyptians suffer through the plagues there is finally a sense that Hasehm has heard the cries and pleas from the depths of slavery and despair. We see now the coming of the geulah and pray for a similar redemption for our times as well.

¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨

Yesterdays assault on our nation’s Capital shook (temporarily) our country’s core values of democracy and representative government. Thankfully the mob violence did not cause the massive damage it might have though tragically there was some loss of life. We are reminded however about much more severe consequences that did occur in other countries including the Bolshevik revolution of 1917 and the Nazi takeover of the Wiemar Republic in 1933. In both these cases agrieved followers of charismatic leaders stormed the palaces of government and established communist and fascist dictatorships. Those catastophic events resulted in millions and millions of deaths throughout the world including of course six million kedoshim. We shall also remember the many brave American and Allied soldiers who sacrificed their lives fighting for good over evil.

This week we begin reading SeferShemos which relates the saga of Pharaoh, the enslavement of Am Yisroel, the birth of Moshe and the ultimate redemption by Hashem. In Sefer Shemos we read how Pharaoh enlisted his people to his campaign but also caused untold suffering to their nation and themselves through the ten plagues. Ultimately they experienced the ultimate punishment by drowning in the Yam Suf after pursuing the newly freed nation.. The power potential of a demagogue to motivate regular people to defy logic and engage in self destructive behavior is exhibit A in sefer Shemos. Of course everything is from Hashem and ultimately it is our purpose in life to learn from life’s experiences, history and live a life of Torah and Mitzvos.

May Hashem continue to bless us with the great potentials of the United States.

¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨

Chazal (our Sages) tell us that even if Asarah Beteves were to occur on Shabbos we would commemorate the fast on that very day. The realization that the beginning of the Churban (destruction of the Beis Hamikdash) was in itself a tragedy of epic proportions should not be lost on any one of us. The very fact that the Jewish people lost their right of movement, human dignity, and religious expression serves as reminder the galus (exile) that we should integrate in our lives as well. Our current predicament of social isolation due to covid pandemic is a small reminder of the human suffering of our ancestors. May Hashem bring about a speedy geulah (redemption) soon.

¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨

There was an article yesterday which reported that doctors were able to get an extra dose of covid vaccine from the vials sent from Pfizer. This will help hasten the vaccine distributions since more people will receive their shots earlier than projected. I read this report just about the same time I was to light the Chanukah menorah symbolizing the miracle of the oil lasting eight days instead of the expected one. In fact the speed in which the vaccine was produced and approved is pretty miraculous as well. We are in Hashem’s hands and pray that the dark period of covid will succumb to the light of medicinal victory.

Good Shabbos and Happy Last Day Of Chanukah
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.

¨From the Rabbi’s Study¨

This year we celebrate Chanukah like no other. Forced to isolate due to the pandemic we nevertheless proudly light the candles to the public and announce our faith in Hashem. We recognize that all events are part of Hashem’s world and the miracle of Chanukah, while accomplished through the bravery and faith of the Chashmonaim was completely Hashem’s work. We pray that the Chanukah of the future will witness the menorah in the Beis Hamikdash with hundreds of thousands celebrating its chaukas habayis.

Good Shabbos and Happy Chanukah
