What Is the Fast of Gedaliah — and Why Does It Matter? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Thursday, September 17th | 6 Tishri 5787 A Torah scroll. Photo: Wikimedia Commons. The day after Rosh Hashanah is known as Tsom Gedaliah — the Fast of Gedaliah. But who was Gedaliah? After the Babylonians had conquered Judea in 586 BCE, its aristocracy and skilled citizens were taken into exile in Babylonia, leaving only a small colony in place to manage the conquered state for the Babylonians. The Babylonians appointed the saintly Gedaliah, from a very prominent family, the son of Achikam, as t

Read excerpt
A Torah scroll. Photo: Wikimedia Commons. Rosh Hashanah is the most multifaceted of our festivals. The Torah itself doesn’t call it a New Year or Chag (festival). It is simply called Yom Hazikaron, the Day of Remembrance. But we’re not told who is remembering whom. Is it God remembering us or us remembering God?

The question of why Moshe was not allowed to go into the Land of Canaan is problematic, because a close reading of the text reveals conflicting versions. Before we consider whether Moshe’s punishment was fair or not, there are different sources and nuances that are not obvious to the cursory reader. The first reference to Moshe hitting or speaking to a rock for water come
The 9th of Av Is Worth Fasting for – and the Saddest Part Is That Many People Don’t Understand Why (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A pool in Jerusalem that was used by pilgrims to the Second Temple some 2,000 years ago, according to soon-to-be-published research. Photo: Dr. David Gurevich. What is so different about the fast of the 9th of Av (coming up next week), as opposed to all other post Biblical fasts? Unlike all other fasts, except Yom Kippur, the 9th of Av fast lasts for more than 24 hours. The prevailing custom is that from the fast of Tamuz ( two weeks ago) we enter a period of mourning for the destruction of the
