Parashat SHELAH-LEKHA: 

 

Moses sends 12 spies, one from each tribe, to scout the land of Canaan and
bring back a report of the conditions the Israelites will find there. After
40 days the spies return, bringing their report of the good land and samples
of its produce. However, 10 of the spies, all but Joshua and Caleb, insist
that the Canaanites are too powerful for the Israelites to conquer.

The people panic when they hear the 10 spies’ conclusion and declare that
they want to return to Egypt. Caleb and Joshua try to change their minds,
pointing out that with God on their side the Israelites need not fear the
inhabitants of the land.

God’s patience finally is exhausted. He tells Moses He will wipe out the
people and start over again. But Moses argues on behalf of the Israelites,
insisting that the Egyptians and Canaanites would interpret such an act as a
sign that God is powerless to bring the people into the land. God relents,
but He declares that the generation of the Exodus will die in the
wilderness; it will be their children who will possess the land.

When the Israelites learn their fate, they decide that they now are prepared
to fight for the land. Despite Moses’ warning that God will not be with them
they attempt an attack and suffer a crushing defeat by the Amalekites and
Canaanites.

God gives Moses more instructions about how sacrifices are to be offered
once the people have settled in the land. God also explains how amends are
to be made for accidental or unwitting sins committed by the entire
community or by individuals.

A man who is found gathering wood on Shabbat is brought before Moses and
Aaron. God tells Moses that he is to be executed.

The parashah concludes with God’s command that the Israelites attach tzitzit
to the corners of their garments as a constant reminder of all of God’s
commandments

The Holocaust Survivor’s Cookbook

Recipes your family will enjoy

.. . . 

Stories they will never forget

 

We are participating in an amazing and compelling fundraising project.

 

The proceeds of each book sold will be applied to CBI and the publishers
will donate their profits to help Carmei Ha’ir, a soup kitchen in Jerusalem.

As we all know, the synagogue depends on fundraisers to meet our annual
budget. This is a great and meaningful way for so many people to benefit and
to help Israel in the process! The past 15 years have been very hard on the
Israeli economy. Rising unemployment and the continued drain on the economy
as a result of the expense involved in Israel’s defense have meant that many
Israelis are unable to afford food for their families.

 

This is not just another Jewish cookbook. Every recipe is handed down and
submitted by Holocaust survivors or their children – and each one is
accompanied by a short narrative by the survivor.  This is a very moving and
lovely cookbook with wonderful recipes.

 

Feed your family and nourish your heart!  The cookbooks are $36. Please send
in your order form and a check made out to Cong. B’nai Israel.

 

Keep the memory alive by creating these meals and reading these sagas.

 

For more information, please contact Linda Sotnick at daralin at comcast. net
or 

973-467-4237.
