Rabbi’s Column for April 2016 HaYom
To this day I will never forget an argument my sister had with our grandfather right before Passover
years back. I was probably about 13 years old then, my sister already 16, when she asked Zeyde if she
could invite her Catholic girlfriend Claudette to the Seder. “Let her come for lunch the next day. You
don’t invite non-Jews to the Seders,” was his reply. To which my sister replied: “Zeyde, you’re a
bigot!” Needless to say, Claudette never made it to our family Seder, since Zeyde was in charge. But
since that time I’ve shared my own Seder table with Zen Buddhists, Japanese Seventh Day Adventists
and even a Catholic priest or two.
In the Eastern European world of my grandparents where red wine was never used at the Seder for fear
of blood libel accusations from their Cossack neighbors come springtime, any dialogue or intellectual
exchange on Passover was never really an option. But thanks to my grandparents’ immigrating to the
shores of America, my world is different. I may still like them view the Seder as a very insider event,
with family tunes, customs and stories to be repeated year after year; but I also view the Seder as a
Jewish symposium where basic issues need to be questioned, reviewed, renewed in a different light,
where new guest-participants each year guarantee that this night will be “different from all other
nights”. We Jews are not missionaries, but that doesn’t mean we can’t compete or participate in the
world of ideas. And by presenting, sharing, explaining our ideas with people other than ourselves at the
Seder, we gain a deeper perspective of who we are. Judaism at its best cannot be clannish or insular.
Otherwise, we will become or even create our own worst enemies.
There is a tale in the Talmud (Sanhedrin 99b) about a woman named Timna which I think needs to be
repeated between Purim and Pesach each year as a preventative and warning against this tendency
among us. Timna, we are told, was a Canaanite princess who wanted to convert to Judaism but the
Patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob rejected her. She thought to herself: “I’d rather be a concubine to
this people than a princess among my people.” So she became a concubine to Eliphaz the first born of
Esau, Jacob’s twin brother, entering the Jewish people through the back door, so to speak. As a result of
their union, Timna gave birth to Amalek. Amalek – the ancestor of Haman and all others of his ilk, the
code name in our tradition for the forces of evil in this world. “Why did this happen?” ask our rabbis in
the Talmud. Their answer: “Because Abraham, Isaac and Jacob should not have rejected her.” Timna
was a sincere seeker after truth and they should have accepted her, bringing her under the protective
wings of the Shechina, the divine presence of God.
“We have met the enemy and he is us.” This quote of Walt Kelley, the cartoonist-satirist of Pogo fame,
sums up the tale of Timna in the Talmud. Amalek is the grandson of Esau, Jacob’s twin brother, and we
created him. It’s all in the family. We’re all part of the same family of humanity.
Amalek is part of us and even within us. Therefore the commandment on Purim to wipe out the memory
of Amalek (Deuteronomy 25:19(according to the Zohar includes wiping out the Yetzer Hara, the evil
impulse, within each of us which bids us to reject the other, the stranger among us. And elsewhere in the
Torah we are told in connection to our Exodus from Egypt:“You shall love the stranger as you love
yourself because you were strangers in Egypt” (Leviticus 19:34). For even after wiping out the
Amalek within our hearts on Purim, our work is not yet completed. And a month later by Pesach we are
commanded to remove from our homes all Chametz, “the leavening yeast which is in the dough”, still
yet another name in the Talmud (Brachot 17a) for the Yetzer Hara - Chametz, that puffed up pride of
leaven which may cause us to reject the Timnas in our midst.
The teachings of our Torah are surely not a monopoly, forbidden to be shared with the rest of humanity.
To paraphrase our teacher Professor Abraham Joshua Heschel: No religion can afford to be an island.
So this year between Purim and Pesach when we do a spring cleaning of our souls, let us not seek to
missionize or to ostracize but rather to dialogue and share with each other and with others.

Information from the President:
Passover. The spring festival that begins on Nissan 15. Our greatest Jewish family
holiday. We gather together to recount the story of the exodus from Egypt. The
story of Moses and Pharaoh. The plagues. The four questions. The answers. Elijah
and the door. The four cups of wine. No leavened bread. The cramps. The two
Seders. The splitting of the Red Sea and the Redemption.
Family and friends and often strangers gather around the Seder table to recount our
history of slavery and exodus. The story of our past lengthy Seders and the
abbreviated forms. The afikomen and inflation.
We have a great history both long- and short-term to share with each other.
By the time we are celebrating Passover hopefully we may be concluding our
search for a Rabbi. We will be nearing our Gala on May 15th and a change in lay
synagogue leadership.
I am hoping you all enjoy your Passover holiday as much as I anticipate enjoying
mine with friends and family.

April 2016 Shalom School
Passover: Let’s walk the path…. I’ve lived it 20, 30, 40 times! Yet I'm not bored and I'm not Pessach-ed out. It's always good to be with
family around a great dinner. But more significantly, Passover and the story we read on the first two nights
represents one of the core stories of our civilization. The journey from slavery to freedom has been told over
the years by rabbis, priests and even Walt Disney: “Go Moses and tell Pharaoh to let my people go.”
Even as a young child I knew weeks ahead that Passover was coming: the cleaning, the grocery shopping,
the cooking and more cleaning ... all this time of preparation, with a hint of slavery work, leading to the first
Seder night. This is when, every year, our Exodus is retold as though each one of us was there.
By the 1st Seder night, my excitement was overwhelming and the memories still live in my mind: The fancy
Passover tableware would be used; each child, as the adults, would get to drink from a silver cup! We would
get to stay up way past bedtime, to put elbows on the table and dip pinky fingers in our cups without being
reminded about table manners. Everyone’s eyes will be on the younger as he/she asks the four questions; ac-
tually, any children’s questions that night would be praised. And of course, the first matzah piece and its su-
perpower, like a time travel machine that transported us from being slaves to rebellious and fierce Hebrew!
The festive meal that followed was for me a prelude leading to the unimaginable promise: the afikomen.
What awesome power in the hands of the child who could find the afikomen: To ask for anything you
wanted, anything!
How lucky I felt to be Jewish on Seder nights! To know that the story had happened for me. The frogs and
the lice and the darkness and the fury of God raining down on the Egyptians heads.
Each Seder, I now reflect on my generation’s journey from slavery to freedom, a journey we struggle to
complete as the slavery of the modern world grows stronger: our consumerism culture, our “i- addictions”,
all pushed by fashion trends, economic forces and circumstances.
So on this year Seder night, let’s rebel against the modern trends of slavery and complete that journey as a
family. The temptation for short cuts is very strong: who has time to polish so many silver cups? Disposable
tableware comes in elegant gold and silver color, and that online recipe is so much faster than grandma’s.
But we must resist so our children can feel, like we did, the excitement of getting ready, getting closer to be
freed again on that special night. This year, let’s gather and polish all the silverware we own, let’s bring out
those fancy dishes from the attic and cook together with the kids for a couple of days! Let’s resist the last
online i-Hagadah and dig out grandpa’s. Let’s make our children walk the path, getting ready for days so
they can as well, relive the exodus from Egypt and be freed. So they too, can experience “Yetsiat Mit-
shayim” (the exodus from Egypt) and God’s hand over them and feel how wonderful and lucky they are to
be free and part of Am Israel.
Chag Pessah Sameah,
