OUR VISITING SCHOLAR IS COMING
TO TOWN
Learning, like life, has both everyday rhythms and
special moments. On a daily basis, we at Temple
Israel make Jewish education central to all of our
religious and cultural activities. As the Talmud states,
"talmud torah k'neged kulam"-- the study of Torah is
fundamental to the fulfillment of all other
commandments. But we are also especially pleased when we can be part of
a learning experience going beyond the everyday.
On October 19, we will be hosting Dr. David Dalin, our Visiting
Scholar for 5774. Dr. Dalin is a widely-published author in the field of
American Jewish History. He has authored or co-authored dozens of
important books, including an encyclopedic survery of The American
Presidents and the Jews and an essential collection of historical documents,
Religion and State in the American Jewish Experience. He has served on
"Think Tanks" in Washington, D.C., and is now a professor at the Ave
Maria College in Florida.
We will have three opportunities to learn from Dr. Dalin in the course of
the weekend of October 19-20. On Saturday morning, at the conclusion of
our morning services, he will share a presentation on "How Chanukkah
Became a Major American Jewish Holiday." As is well known,
Chanukkah is a "minor festival" in traditional Judaism. But for many
American Jews, it has achieved a major status. How did that happen?
Moreover, Chanukkah has become a major seasonal holiday in American
eyes, generally. As Rabbi Dalin will discuss, one more recent example of
the Americanization of Chanukkah, and Chanukkah's status as a major
American holiday, is the coming of Chanukkah to the White House where,
during the past decade, Chanukkah parties have been hosted by American
Presidents and their families and kosher food has been served at the White
House Chanukkah parties.
The Chanukkah connection will also involve mention of the coins in our
Brenner Memorial Coin Exhibit. These coins, representing the history of
the Jewish people and those who ruled over our ancestors, thousands of
years ago, are on permanent display, and are wonderful tools supporting
our educational mission.
On Saturday evening, at 7:30, Dr. Dalin and I will participate in an open
conversation on "The American Presidents and the Jews." Our
president, Phil Walzer, will moderate the discussion. In an informal
setting, we will have the opportunity to converse with our distinguished
guest scholar and tap his considerable knowledge of our history as
Americans and as Jews.
The next day, Sunday, October 20, at 2 PM, Dr. Dalin will give a lecture
at the Portsmouth Jewish museum and cultural center. His lecture will deal

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
A few months ago, I read a book titled “Reimagining Leadership in Jewish
Organizations.” It wasn’t as dry as it sounds. It talked about nurturing, risk-taking,
developing a vision. All good points. But the one that really captured my interest came
towards the end of the book. The author, Misha Galperin, spoke about the concept of
b’tzelem Elohim, or being created in God’s image.
“What would it mean,” Galperin wrote, “if people really treated each other as images
of God? It would mean that everyone is unique. It would mean that everyone is infinitely
precious….If we really treated people this way, it would revolutionize the way we work in
the world.”
This idea of b’tzelem Elohim was summarized movingly by Rabbi David Wolpe of
Los Angeles, who recently wrote: “Untangle the strands of our spiritual DNA, and you will discover a spark, in
every human being, of the One who spoke and created the world.”
At Temple Israel, I believe this is standard operating procedure. I’ve seen countless examples where we treat
one another as “infinitely precious.” Or, in a phrase the rabbi will expand on later in the holidays, we are a
“caring community.” And that’s as it should be.
Here’s one recent instance that probably few of you know about: One of our Shabbat regulars, who had joined
both our religion and our synagogue barely a year before, moved south this summer with her young son. In her
short time here, she developed a tight network of friends, who did not desert her when she left. They continue to
call her, sometimes every couple of days, to check on her progress – social and religious – and cheer her on.
In good times and bad, we sustain one another. At minyan, we console those who are mourning, sometimes
with a hug, sometimes with a bad joke or simply a smile. At aufrufs, birthday kiddushes or bar or bat mitzvah
ceremonies, we rejoice as if we were members of the family – because, in fact, we are.
At school, too, our children make impressive moral leaps. One day, three boys see a quarter lying on the floor
in the hallway. Luck-eee, says one. Another says, “Yeah, when you find money and put it in the tzedakah box,
you feel good all day.” All three then go to the principal’s office to deposit the quarter in the tzedakah container.
A true story.
In short, we see the beauty in one another regardless of age, income, background or level of observance.
Again, as it should be.
When I told Rabbi Panitz about the topic of my speech, he referred me to the late French philosopher
Emmanuel Levinas. And Levinas reinforced a significant point: When searching for the image of God in others,
we ourselves come closer to the ideal that God had hoped human beings would achieve. “In the face of the other,”
Levinas wrote, “I demand more of myself.”
Now you might be thinking: This all sounds nice, but how in the world is it connected with the High Holiday
appeal, which is what he’s finally going to get to at some point? I’ll tell you how.
In a very concrete way, your High Holiday pledge will keep the synagogue and all of its activities functioning
smoothly and will help us meet our budget. As someone who thinks about Temple Israel’s budget at least weekly,
if not daily, I’d say that’s pretty important. But let’s look at it in a different way.
Yes, your contributions will allow us to keep providing a high level of religious services every holiday, every
Shabbat, in fact every day of the year. That, of course, will bring us closer to God. And that, in turn, will help peel
away the barriers, opening us up so that we can draw closer and see one another in a more generous light. In the
process, each of us will take a giant step toward the ideal selves we aspire to become this holiday season. In other
words, everyone wins.
Your support, too, will help fund our Shabbat kiddushes. At least for me, it’s the most filling lunch of the
week, by far. But look more closely Saturday when we’re in Brody or on the atrium. It’s not just eating that’s
going on there. You’ll see nothing less than the nurturing of the soul, as old acquaintances catch up and new
relationships are born, again crossing the lines of wealth, geography and generation.

with the American presidents and the Jews in the turbulent decade leading up to the American Civil War.
Please plan on attending as many of these events as you can. You will come away from the weekend with
much to think about!
Shalom,

Phil Walzer’s column continued from page 4
And your help will sustain our religious school – where creative sparks fly up every Sunday, producing
moments of wonder and transcendence between student and student, student and teacher.
I guess what I’m trying to say is this: By supporting Temple Israel, you are sustaining an important and
powerful religious institution. But you’re doing so much more. You are building ladders to self-improvement,
building bridges to new worlds. You are creating lifelong friendships and caring communities. You are changing
lives.
Please help us reach our goal of $50,000 this year. Thank you for your support of Temple Israel. May we all
discover the beauty and nobility in one another throughout the coming year.
Phil Walzer, President
Thank you to the Men’s Club for

What is Torah fund really about? The Torah Fund connects women who
care about the future of the Jewish community and empowers us to make a
difference. We are living in an era in which the fundamentalist extremes hold
great allure and power and so we know that we must support the Torah Fund to
hold our vital and centrist community strong. We know that the cost of higher
education has soared and so we support Torah fund so that financial aid can be
granted generously to those who want to train as rabbis, cantors and educators for
our day schools and synagogues. We support the Torah fund so that the Jewish Theological Seminary, the
Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies, the Schechter Institute of Jewish Studies and the Seminario Latinoamerico
Rabbinico serve as strong, vibrant centers of learning, training the next generation of leaders for the community
we hold dear.
And there are many ways we can support Torah Fund. In addition to tzedakah boxes for your loose change
and the Torah Fund pin pictured above, there are also beautiful Tribute Cards for both happy and sad occasions.
Just see Wendy Brodsky at services (I always carry a supply of boxes, cards and pins with me!) or email/call for
more information ([email protected] or 639-3541.)
