tisha b`av - Temple Sinai

Winner of a Solomon Schechter Award for Excellence in Synagogue Bulletins
Tammuz-Av 5772
Temple Sinai Welcomes
Joseph Hakimi Maghen,
Director of Congregational Learning
“Education is faith in peoples’ potential”,
says Joseph Hakimi Maghen
Joseph attended Otzar
HaTorah, a Jewish Day
School, and continued his
higher education in
P s yc ho lo g y, Ed uca tio n ,
Administration and Jewish
education in Israel, Iran and in
the United States. He earned
his M.A. in education and
administration and Doctorate
in psychology.
Joseph believes that the most
essential contribution
educators can make to
children’s education is through
their own humanity, their
moral example, and their care for people. To lead successful
educational programs, Joseph has initiated a process in
which students, teachers, and parents get involved in
spiritual and personal development.
Lifelong learning and continuous self-improvement are
central to Joseph. For over 20 years, he served the Los
Angeles community facilitating and creating educational
opportunities for Jews of all ages as the Director of
Congregational Learning, Judaic Studies and Middle School
Director. He has led the development of innovative
educational programs and teaching methods throughout Los
Angeles and Orange County. He has inspired and enabled
teachers to nurture student’s growth in the development of
skills, values, and finding the joy in meaningful learning.
Joseph was awarded the Milken Foundation exemplary
Educator Award for his outstanding contributions to Jewish
education. He was recognized by numerous other
organizations for his active involvement in establishing
schools for the community.
Joseph displays humility and humor, which he combines
with warmth and friendliness toward his students and each
person he encounters. His hobbies include gardening and
reading. Joseph’s wife Delanie enjoys cooking and
conversations with friends and family. She is an Early
Childhood Educator. They have two daughters. Rachel, a
graduate of UC Berkeley is a Registered Dietician, and
Sara, a graduate of UC Davis is pursuing her graduate
studies Public Health.

Summer
CAMP MACCABEE
Summertime is here…and Camp Maccabee is in full swing! Campers
arrived to a welcome of balloons and a brightly decorated hallway…if
you didn’t know we were in the Ann Newman Preschool wing, you’d
think we were transported to a land of princesses and characters! All
of the children have adjusted to being at camp and are having LOTS
of FUN! They are SAFE, and HAPPY…our two main goals at Camp
Maccabee.
The summer will be filled with many activities including Segal
Puppets, Rak-Dan Israeli dancing, pony rides and a visit from Briar
Bush Nature Center. It will all culminate with our family friendly
carnival which will include a moon bounce and cotton candy, as well
as a balloon artist!
Each week we have Music with Miss Tammy, Little Gym with
Miss Lauren, and Sports with Joanne! They add such a great spice to
our weekly activities. In addition, the counselors work hard every day
to make sure the summer is filled with wonder and excitement. We
are always using our imaginations and our abilities to be creative and
unique!
We know our children are enjoying every moment from the many
bits of feedback which we receive on a daily basis! It is our pleasure
to have the opportunity to see the big SMILES on all of the children’s
faces. Wishing you an enjoyable summer!
Laurie Matez, Camp Maccabee Director
the liturgy in a new way – courtesy of new
translations and contemporary explanations
– will undoubtedly enhance the time spent
in services.
From the
Rabbi’s
Study
Rabbi Adam Wohlberg
That time of year which kids and young
adults look forward to all-year-long has
finally arrived: Summer Vacation! For me
and for my colleagues who serve in
congregations, the summer months mean
something a little different: High Holiday
Preparations!! (Yes, the exclamation points
may be a little over-the-top.)
Over the course of July and August,
many of the decisions are made that will
make for, what we hope will be, meaningful
and fulfilling services during the Days of
Awe. Sermons will be written, prayer
introductions crafted and assignments will
be made for the many honors afforded to
congregants on Rosh Hashanah and Yom
Kippur.
During the last month, Cantor Freedman
and I have been occupied with the exciting
work of reviewing the new mahzor (High
Holiday prayer book) which we will
inaugurate in September. We have been
studying the new volume page-by-page,
determining which new prayers and
readings to add to our service and which
older ones to retire (at least temporarily).
Mahzor Lev Shalem is a very rich prayer
book with new material to be explored and
enjoyed. This mahzor is both educational
and inspirational. And although there is
something to be said for using a prayer
book that is already familiar and
comfortable, the opportunity to experience
As an example of the manner in which
the new High Holiday prayer book strives
to engage the worshipper, I have shared
below an excerpt from the introduction to
Rosh Hashanah. Pieces like this are printed
in the margins of the mahzor, so that while
they are not part of the formal liturgy – and
would not be read aloud during the service
– they draw the reader’s attention and
provide a context for the service as well as
for the holidays themselves.
The celebration of the New Year
involves a mixture of emotions. On the one
hand there is a sense of gratitude at having
lived to this time. Last year, we may have
prayed that we be given another year, and
thankfully we are here to see this day. . .
On the other hand, the beginning of a
new year raises anxiety: What will my fate
be this year? Will I live out the year? Will I
be healthy? Will I spend my time wisely, or
will it be filled in a way that does not truly
bring happiness? In turn these questions
inspire even deeper self-reflection: What do
I want out of life? What makes me proud?
What makes me ashamed? What are my
mo st fu nd a men ta l commitmen ts?
Rightfully, this day is called the “Day of
Judgment,” for in asking ourselves where
we have been and where we are going,
what have we done, and in what ways we
need to strike out on different and new
paths, our lives this past year are judged
and our future is determined. To stand
before God means that we must face
ultimate questions.
The Rabbis formulated the variety of
emotions of this day by having God say to
us, “Half this day is for you and half for
Me” (Babylonian Talmud, Pesachim 68b).
It is a day of extraordinary seriousness as
we face our Creator and reveal our deepest
selves. It is a day of joy as we revel in the
community surrounding us and celebrate
the gift of life with them.
As there is a great deal of new material
in Mahzor Lev Shalem - and anyone using
this prayer book for the first time would
benefit from an explanation regarding its
design and layout - I will be providing 4
sessions in which I will be discussing the
various elements of this exceptional
volume. For those who prefer daytime
sessions we will meet on Wednesday,
August 1 and Wednesday, August 8 from
9:30-10:30 AM. And for those who prefer
evening sessions, the same information will
be presented on Tuesday, July 31 and
Tuesday, August 7 from 8:00-9:00 PM.
Anyone planning to attend the evening
sessions is encouraged to arrive at 7:30 PM
to join the evening minyan.
On a separate note, I want to warmly
welcome to our congregation and our
community our new Director of
Congregational Learning, Joseph Hakimi
Maghen. Joseph and his wife Delanie are
arriving in July and I know that they are
anxious to meet the members of our
congregation. If you are in the synagogue
during the week, please stop by Joseph’s
office and say “Hello.” Let’s all have a
hand in showing Joseph and Delanie what a
warm and friendly congregation we are and
how delighted we are to be able to say to
them “Bruchim ha-baim!” (Transl.
“Welcome!”)

When there’s a death in the family, decisions tend to be colored
by grief, not governed by reason. You can save your family this
unnecessary stress by purchasing your gravesite now and
prearranging your funeral.
Summer Hours:
Monday – Friday:
10:30 AM – 1:30 PM
Buying a cemetery plot is a decision you can make today for a
time when your family must go on without you or a loved one.
In order to address our congregants’ needs, in 1954 Temple
Sinai purchased grave sites at nearby King David Memorial
Park in Bensalem. Approximately 35 percent of the gravesites
remain. These are available to members and their families at a
reasonable price, substantially less than at other cemeteries.

TISHA B’AV
THE 9TH DAY OF THE MONTH OF AV
Tisha B’Av (“the 9th day in the month of
Av”) is a day of sadness and a day of
remembrance. What we remember are
numerous tragic events which the Jewish
people have experienced over the course of
history.
1. 586 BCE - The First Holy Temple in
Jerusalem was destroyed by the
Babylonians.
2. 70 CE - The Second Holy Temple in
Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans.
3. 135 CE - Betar, the last fortress to hold
out against the Romans during the Bar
Kochba revolt fell, sealing the fate of the
Jewish people.
4. 1492 - King Ferdinand of Spain issued
the expulsion decree, setting Tisha B'Av as
the final date by which not a single Jew
would be allowed to walk on Spanish soil.
5. World War I – which began the
downward slide to the Holocaust – began
on Tisha B’Av.
Tisha B’Av is a fast day, and is the only
fast of the year other than Yom Kippur on
President’s
Message
Bill Kramer
As the summer gets into high gear, the
action and planning at Temple Sinai
continues unabated.
On July 1, we
welcomed a new member of the Temple
Sinai family, Joseph Maghen, as our
Director of Congregational Learning. He
comes to us with a wealth of experience,
energy and excitement. Joseph may have
started officially on July 1, but his actual
transition has been going on for several
weeks. Thanks to the efforts of a transition
team headed by Tobey Grand, Joseph is
learning all about our pre-school, religious
school and adult education programs. We
are so excited to have someone of Joseph’s
experience and commitment to Jewish
education join our staff and our
congregation. We are looking forward to
working with him as we plan all of our
educational programs, from pre-school to
adult education, starting in the fall. Please
extend a warm welcome to Joseph and his
which the duration of the fast is sundown to
sundown. And, just as on Yom Kippur, the
prohibitions extend beyond eating and
drinking to not bathing, not anointing
oneself and not wearing leather shoes.
The services of Tisha B’Av, in the
evening and in the morning are chanted
with a plaintive melody, if a melody is used
at all.
The centerpiece of the day is the
chanting of Aicha (The Book of
Lamentations), the prophet Jeremiah’s
description of Jerusalem’s devastation in
586 BCE. Aicha is chanted as part of the
evening service (Maariv) and the morning
service (Shacharit).
In mourning the destruction of
Jerusalem, as well as the other calamities
that have befallen the Jewish people, we
seat ourselves on the floor rather than on
comfortable chairs, during the service, or as
Aicha is recited. In the synagogue, we also
set the mood for the day by lowering the
lights and chanting the Book of Aicha by
candlelight.
When the 9th of Av falls on Shabbat – as
it does this year – the day of fasting and
commemoration is postponed until the
conclusion of Shabbat. Thus, Tisha B’Av
will begin this year on Saturday night, July
28 which is actually the 10th of Av.
The schedule of services at Temple Sinai
for Tisha B’Av is as follows:
Saturday, July 28 – 8:15 PM - Mincha
9:00 PM Maariv services including the
reading of Aicha
Sunday, July 29 - 8:45 AM – Shacharit
service with a selection from Aicha
1:00 PM – Mincha service
8:45 PM - Maariv
lovely wife, Delanie, as soon as you can. I
know he wants to meet and get to know all
of you.
need arises to alter our access to the
building or use of the parking lot we will
promptly notify the congregation.
The most visible of activities this
summer is the replacement of about 95% of
our roof. Many parts of our roof are over
30 years old. After a several years of dealing with a considerable number of leaks,
and having exhausted the ability the appropriately patch the roof, Ed Altman and the
Housing Committee, headed by Jeff Hampton, commenced a comprehensive review
of all aspects of the roof. We engaged an
independent roofing consultant to first
evaluate our needs and then to assist us in
preparing a bid package and bidding process for a number of qualified roofing contractors. As a result of this competitive
bidding process, we selected one of the
bidding contractors to begin the work in
early July. During this time, you will see
cranes and other construction vehicles as
well as construction materials and
personnel outside. Our roofing consultant
will be overseeing the project and is
working with us and the contractor to
minimize, as much as possible, any
disruption to the activities of the
synagogue. Camp Maccabee will go on
virtually unaffected by this activity. If the
In order the pay for the roof, we were
able to refinance the mortgage at an
attractive rate. The added principal of our
outstanding loan amount will increase our
operating costs, but we really had no other
choice. We need to stop the leaks, and
have a roof we can count on as we begin
investing in the rest of the building over the
next few years as funding allows.
Finally, as always it is that time of year
when the dues bills are out. Cash flow is
always an issue. We hope that you will pay
your bills in a timely fashion. It is only
with your cooperation and timely payment
that we can continue to operate and offer all
our activities and programs.
Enjoy your summer,
Bill
