Message of Solidarity & Rabbi Cohen's Blog on Huffington Post

Congregation Agudath Sholom 

Message of Solidarity and Rabbi Cohen's Latest Blog
As we enter the Nine Days, the darkest days of the year for Klal Yisrael, we mourn the brutal murders of five Israelis, most of them in their twenties, and the violence done to over 20 others, in the Bulgarian resort city of Burgas. Their only intent was to find rest and relaxation; they sought to harm no one. They were attacked only because they were Israeli Jews, and Jews everywhere feel the pain.

We also express our
 deepest, most heartfelt condolences go out to the victims of this horrific crime and tragedy in Aurora, Colorado.


We send our thoughts, prayers  and condolences to the victims and their families.

May G-d give them strength and comfort during this difficult time.

Congregation Agudath Sholom Torah on the Go Are we making progress? We are at the mid point of the counting of the Omer but the critical question is whether we are making the days count. Are we nurturing and nourishing our souls? The studying of Ethics of Our Fathers (Chabad.org) during this period reinforces our mission of personal development. As Peggy Noonan noted in her recent article, (Click here to read), "I think more and more people are worried about the American character-who we are and what kind of adults we are raising. Every story that has broken through the past few weeks has been about who we are as a people. And they are all disturbing." The world and we need Pirkei Avot, Ethics of our Fathers. Take a few moments, this Shabbat to study a selection from Chapter 3 and reflect on the relevant messages. Listen to a class posted below or find your own source of Torah inspiration to harness the gift of the Omer.

Rabbi Daniel Cohen's Weekly Message - The Six Secrets of Purim

Rabbi Daniel Cohen's Weekly Message

Quick Links



The Six Secrets of Purim
2 Adar, 5772
 
Dear Friends,
 
Life is a path and every holiday is a gateway to growth. What is in store for Purim? Most people associate the holiday with drinking, costumes, noise makers and the reading of the Book of Esther - the entire megillah.
 

In truth, though, Purim expresses some of the deepest secrets of Jewish Life. The roots of Purim trace back to the Garden of Eden with the story of the snake, Adam and Eve. According to tradition, the holiday of Purim, albeit today a minor festival, will be the greatest holiday we celebrate in the Messianic Age. What is the eternal relevance of this holiday?

 

Let's go a bit deeper. Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year. Yet, Jewish mysticism teaches that Purim possesses the capacity to lift us to even greater spiritual heights? How is a holiday filled with revelry and partying imbued with the potential for such holiness?

 

The Purim season begins today with the new month of Adar. The highlights are the Fast of Esther which occurs on Wednesday, March 7th (from dawn until nightfall) and the holiday of Purim which commences on Wednesday evening, March 7th with the reading of the Book of Esther. The day of Purim consists of the fulfillment of the four mitzvoth of the day.

 

1. Hearing the Book of Esther in the evening and morning

2. Gifts to the Poor - Matanot LeEvyonim

3. Gifts to Your Friends - Mishloach Manot

4. Festive Purim Feast - Purim Seudah

 

The Six Secrets of Purim, beginning on Sunday, March 4th, will explore how each one of these mitzvoth serves as a vehicle to inspire us to rededicate our lives to a fundamental mission of Jewish life.

Join me on our special Purim edition of "40 Days to a Better You" as we unlock the secrets of this holiday. Sign up to receive the daily messages. Be in touch via email with your own Purim inspiration or questions about the holiday.

 

Looking forward! Wishing you and your families a Happy Adar and Purim!
