Unique Passover Traditions
The scattering of the Jews around the world over the past 2,000
years, to nearly every continent, has meant that these traditions
have evolved and been adapted to different settings. Here are
some of the most unique Passover traditions from around the world.
Jews living in Afghanistan developed the tradition of using
scallions or leeks to stand for the Egyptian slavedrivers’ whips,
using them to lightly “whip” each others’ backs. Jews have lived
in Afghanistan at least since the Babylonian conquest 2,000
years ago, but in 2004 only two Jews were left in the country. It is now estimated
that only a single Jew lives in Afghanistan, as the other died in 2005. The largest
group of Afghan Jews in the world is comprised of 200 families in Queens, New
York.
In the British territory of Gibraltar, a tiny peninsula off Spain where
Jews have lived for about 650 years, there’s a special recipe for
charoset: the dust of real bricks, ground up and mixed in.
Hasidic Jews from the Polish town of Góra Kalwaria, known
as Gerer Hasids, re-enact the crossing of the Red Sea on the
seventh day of Passover by pouring water on the floor, lifting up
their coats, and naming the towns that they would cross in their
region of Poland. They raise a glass at each “town” and then thank God for helping
them reach their destination.

From the Rabbi
Yom HaShoah
Passover Yizkor Service
Thursday, April 9,
7:00 PM
Yizkor means “may God
remember,” from the root
word zakhor--remember. Join
us as we honor the memory of
our loved ones.
Yom HaShoah
Commemoration
Wednesday,
April 15, 7:00 PM
Yom HaShoah, (Holocaust
Remembrance Day), occurs
on the 27th of Nisan. Shoah,
which means catastrophe or
utter destruction in Hebrew,
refers to the atrocities that
were committed against the
Jewish people during World
War II. This is a memorial
day for those who died in the
Shoah.
The congregation is invited to
join together in observancce
and rememberance of the
Shoah. Yellow memorial
candles will be available that
evening for those who wish
to take them home to light.
How is it that Yom HaShoah (Holocaust
Memorial Day) came to be observed
on the 27th of Nisan twelve days after
Passover? This years it begin on the
evening of Wednesday, April 15.
For one thing, the holiday’s
occurrence in this season is not
without controversy, especially among
more traditional Jewish communities.
On the heels of Purim and in the
optimistic spirit of Pesach, Nisan
is regarded as a joyous month in
which we celebrate the triumph of the
Jewish spirit in spite of unspeakable
odds. Some offered that it should be
aligned with Tisha B’Av, the summer
fast remembering the destruction of
the First and Second Temples, which
was already seen by many to be a day
of mourning in the calendar. In fact,
our previous Shabbat prayerbook,
The Gates of Prayer, included Yom
HaShoah prayers in the Tisha B’av
section. While not discounting the
idea of a Holocaust commemoration,
others still wondered later if the day
should incorporate a remembrance of
lives lost in other European atrocities
such as the Inquisition or the Russian
pogroms.
In 1951, Israel Parliamient (Knesset)
member Mordechai Nurock gave a
powerful speech in which he elevated
the horrors of the Holocaust above
any of the other previous massacres
or battles faced by the Jewish
community. “We need to choose a
date,” he said, “that coincides with
most of the slaughter of European
Jewry and with the ghetto uprisings
(Warsaw Ghetto) that took place in the
2
Harvey J. Winokur
month of Nisan.” Directly addressing
the idea of Nisan as a joyous time,
he went on to note that this date
occurred during the counting of the
Omer (the days between Pesach
and Shavuot), a time when many
Jewish communities were destroyed
throughout history and a period of
semi-mourning in traditional circles.
Shortly after Nurock’s impassioned
plea, the Knesset passed a bill in
establishing the holiday on the 27th
of Nisan. Having just completed
Passover, the timing of Yom HaShoah
is a constant reminder about the
importance of maintaining resistance
despite circumstances which make it
nearly impossible to do so.
T K C w i l l c o m m e m o r a t e Yo m
HaShoah at 7:00 PM on the evening
of Wednesday, April 15. We will
read from our Holocaust Scroll. In
remembrance, will read the names
of the Jews of Bzenec (Bisenc) who
were sent to their deaths by the Nazis.
All those present at the service will
receive a yellow memorial candle,
sponsored by the Federation of
Jewish Men’s’ Club and provided by
the TKC Brotherhood, to light at home
in remembrance of the millions who
perished.

News from the Director of Education
Catherine Rosing
Director of
Education
Every month, it is a
challenge to figure
out a new way to
express an important message. I
usually begin by scanning previous
years’ articles hoping that some fresh
idea will occur to me. I think about
recent educational experiences and
conversations with other educators.
Next, my mind considers those around
me and the question comes up, “have I
expressed appreciation and admiration
where it is due?” Then, I think about
the calendar and the events that have
occurred and what is coming up. Lastly,
I worry about repeating myself and
sounding boring. BUT, sometimes the
message is just too important not to
repeat.
but how can one deny that to hear the
Sh’ma is to wake up and take notice.
We have designed our curriculum to
teach prayer Hebrew in such a way
that our students can experience a
connection to being Jewish. The 26
Sundays we are in Religious School
lays the foundation. It is imperative
that students practice during the week.
It is just as important to attend Shabbat
services. Hearing the prayers and
joining in with the community cements
a connection. It is also an opportunity
for students to connect what they are
learning with practice. Twenty years
ago, I took the Cantor’s adult Hebrew
class. It gave me the base, but Shabbat
attendance made me feel comfortable
to read Hebrew prayers with and in front
of the congregation.
Wait a minute - repeating oneself? Isn’t
this an important teaching methodology?
When we repeat things, they become
part of our personal culture. We rely on
repetition to move ideas from short term
to long term brain files. We celebrate
the same holidays every year. This
repetition of celebration builds a greater
knowledge bank about Jewish customs
and culture.
We are out of Religious School most
of April. After May 17, we’ll be out for
summer break. It would be a shame for
students to lose the momentum they
have built up over the year. Attending
Shabbat services allows students a
greater connection to Shabbat and the
Kehillah and gives them an opportunity
to practice their Hebrew by following
along with the service. Sounds too
easy! So join me, the Rabbi, Cantor
and whoever happens to show up at
services!
Now to the real meat of this month’s
message – Hebrew and repetition.
Hebrew is one of many things which
distinguish us as a culture. We may
not all aspire to make aliyah to Israel,

News from the TKC President
50th
Anniversary of
“Bloody Sunday”
We came to Selma,
Alabama for the 50th
Anniversary of “Bloody
Sunday,” the day on which peaceful
marchers were viciously attacked by
Police on the Edmund Pettus Bridge. The
Bridge, named after Edmund Pettus, a
Confederate General, US Senator and
Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan, was a
symbol of everything wrong with America in
that time. In our time, it became a symbol of
hope that the American Dream of equality
would be finally realized. The answer today
is yes – and no. Although the landmark
Voting Rights Act of 1965 was signed at the
Bridge, this law has now been gutted by
the US Supreme Court in a split decision
that no longer requires Federal supervision
of voting rights in the southern states.
But why did we come to Selma? We
came because it is a special place and
time. Being a “Baby Boomer,” I remember
the marches, boycotts and freedom rides
– and I remember that we, as Reform
Jews, were in the forefront of the Civil
Rights movement. I remember my father,
Milton Bauman, in the early 1960s, helping
to found the Christian Light Missionary
Baptist Church in my home town, Long
Beach, NY. I was there at the first service
with him.
I remember President Lyndon Johnson
(whom I greatly admired) and his
leadership in bringing the Civil Rights Act
of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965
to fruition. No other president in our time
could have done this; his mastery of the ins
and outs of Congress enabled him to make
these two pieces of legislation a reality.
I remember Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
of the SCLC and his leadership in the
movement, and the tremendous loss when
he was assassinated. And too, there were
Roy Wilkins of the NAACP, James Farmer
and Roy Innis of CORE and many, many
others who contributed their blood, sweat
and tears for equality in this United States.
So, my wife Harriette and I, our daughter
Tracy and two of the grandchildren,
6
Richie Bauman
Jabari and Kyla, drove to Selma. Unlike
1965, most of the police were smiling;
there were black police officers and white
police officers – in 1965, none were black.
Although it was 2015, I could feel that
long gone fear as we crossed the Bridge
– among thousands! Blacks, whites,
Hispanics, Native Americans, the old, the
young, men, women, children – thousands
and thousands.
Let me not forget our hosts, Temple
Mishkan Israel, a waning community of
Reform Jews just down the road a piece
from the Bridge in downtown Selma.
This tiny Reform Jewish community of
ten members hosted our delegation,
organized by Rabbi Fred Guttman of North
Carolina. Fittingly, we crossed the bridge
with three of those members, one of whom
took the photo of us on the Bridge. I would
estimate that all three that crossed with
us were about 75 years old – and they
crossed over!
We all crossed the Bridge for one reason
– Hope! There is hope in that Bridge – only
if we raise our voices as a Kehillah with
other Kehillot, regardless of denomination,
against injustice, against discrimination,
against violence! That is the real legacy
of the Edmund Pettus Bridge. As Jews, as
Reform Jews, that is our legacy!
