Rabbi's Message
by Rabbi Alan Alpert
In his preface to "A Passover Haggadah" the
editor Rabbi Herbert Bronstein, dedicates
the ne; Reform Haggadah in memory of his father who made him " ••• aware that I am part of
a great processional still being led by a
pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire
by night, from degradation to ~lory." Ev7n
before his education as a rabbi, Bronstein
states, " ••• as a child, I had already glimpsed the awesome and wonderful kingdom of the
sacred into which the Haggadah was an enchanted portal."
As editor, Bronstein brings a vision of a
spirjtual guest--to allow the ancient evolving message of the Haggadah to speak to our
inner soul. Our soul recognizes and verifies
the religious truths of the ancient and the
modern, and longs for redemption for all humanity and a spiritual unification with God.
Whether we use this or any other Haggadah,
Bronstein's vision is important for us. The
Haggadah should be " ••. a g~teway to the ~ctual experience of redemption, new and different each year, yet ever permanent in the
realities of our history and ever reluming
our vision of life."
At the Seder let us enter the gateway and
relive our experiences, open our minds and
hearts to feel the sacred and allow it to
grow each and every day.
Traditional Passover Preparations
On the night of March 31st, the night before Passover starts, traditional Jews will
complete their thorough cleaning of the house
with a search for any remaining crumbs of
leavened bread (bedikat hamatz). In the morning the crumbs are burned no later than 10am.
During the 8 days of Passover, only foods
containing a "Kosher for Passover" label an~
fresh fruits and vegetables are eaten. Prohibited foods include anything with leavening;
cereals and grains(wheat, barley, oats, rye);
alcoholic beverages; and, in the Ashkenazic
tradition but not the Sephardic, rice,millet,
corn,and legumes(dried beans & peas,pean~ts).
Dishes and untensils need to be set aside
for Passover use only, or "kashered" by thoroughly scouring them in hot water, and~ 24
hour soaking in hot water. Pottery, baking
dishes, and vessels which cannot be thoroughly cleaned cannot be kashered and should not
be used. The oven or stove must be thoroughly
cleaned and heated to highest heat for 30
minutes. A dishwasher needs to be thoroughly
scrubbed and run through a complete cycle
after not using it for 24 hours.
The Haggadah
(from "The Passover Anthology" by Philip
Goodman)
The Haggadah, the book that presents the
order of the home service for the first two
evenings of Passover, occupies a unique place
in Jewish liturgy. It is an anthology of
readings from the Bible, appropriate talmudic
and midrashic selections and legends, prayers
and blessings, hymns and songs. All these are
interwoven with the ritual for the Seder--the
order of the service.
Product of many hands, the Haggadah has had
a long development. The antiquity of the Haggadah, having its origin in the Bible, has
been well established. Certain portions antedate the period of the Maccabees. Its present
character was largely formed by about 200 CE,
for it is described in some detail in the
Mishnah, compiled by Rabbi Judah the Patriarch at that time. It was further embellished, however, during the course of succeeding
centuries.
The spirit pervading the Haggadah is one of
longing for redemption and freedom, a belief
in the survival of the Jewish people and an
unyielding confidence in divine salvation. It
was, therefore, natural for this work to capture the hearts of the Jewish people in all
generations and to give them a sense of pride
in Jewish destiny and broad perspectives on
the precious values of freedom and liberty
for all mankind.
Endeared to Jews, the Haggadah has appeared
in innumerable editions--printed, illuminated, illustrated--some without commentaries
and one with as many as 238 commentaries.
More than a score of translations of the Haggadah have been made and it has been adapted
in various ways to serve different needs and
interests.

Passover
Seder
For those who have
reservations for the
Community Seder, the Seder will held at 6 pm
on Friday, April 1, 1988, in the Temple
Social Hall.
If you are having a seder at your home, and
need any information or questions answered,
Rabbi Alpert will be happy to help you.
Moses
(by Ahad
Ha-am, from "The Passover Anthology"
by Philip Goodman)
On the threshold of Jewish history the figure of Moses, the greatest of our national
heroes, stands like a pillar of light. As I
read the Haggadah, on Passover eve, his image
hovers over me and lifts me to a higher
plane, where all the doubts and questions
that have been raised about Moses do not
trouble me in the least.
Did Moses really exist? Did his life and
activities really correspond with the traditional account? Did he really save the Jewish
people and give them the Torah in the form in
which it has been handed down to us? Questions there are in plenty; but I wave them aside with a short and simple answer.
This Moses--! say to the erudite questioners--this man of antiquity, whose existence
and character you are investigating, is no
concern of anybody but learned antiquarians
like yourselves. We have another Moses of our
own, woose image has been enshrined in the
hearts of the Jewish people for centuries,
and who has never ceased to influence our national life from the earliest times to the
present day.
The existence of this Moses of ours is a
historical fact which is wholly independent
of your researches. Even if you succeeded in
proving beyond all doubt that the man Moses
never existed, or that the actual Moses was
different from our picture of him, that would
not in the slightest degree affect the historical reality of the ideal Moses--the Moses
who not only led us for forty years in the
wilderness of Sinai, but has led us for thousands of years in all the wildernesses in
which we have wandered since the Exodus •••
Seder Service Additions
Please add the following two selections at
your Seder:
SEDER RITUAL OF REMEMBRANCE FOR THE SIX
MILLION JEWS WHO PERISHED IN THE HOLOCAUST:
On this night of Seder, we remember with
reverence and love, the six million of our
people of the European exile who perished at
the hands of a tyrant more wicked than the
Pharaoh who enslaved our fathers in Egypt.
Come, said he to his minions, let us cut them
off from being a people that the name of Israel may be remembered no more. And they slew
the blameless and pure, men and women and
little ones, with vapors of poison and burned
them with fire. But we abstain from dwelling
on the deeds of the evil ones lest we defame
the image of God in which humankind was
created.
Now, the remnants of our people who were
left in the ghettoes and camps of annihilation rose up against the wicked ones for the
sanctification of the Name and slew many of
them before they died. On the first day of
Passover, the remnants in the Ghetto of Warsaw rose up against the adversary, even as in
the days of Judah the Maccabee. "They were
lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in
their death, they were not divided,w and they
brought redemption to the name of Israel
through all the world.
And from the depths of their affliction,
the martyrs lifted their voices in a song of
faith in the coming of the Messiah, when justice and fellowship will reign among the
people.
THE MATZAH OF HOPE
This matzah, which we set aside as a symbol
of hope for the Jews of the Soviet Union, reminds us of the indestructible links that exist between us.
As we observe this festival of freedom, we
recall that Soviet Jews are not free to leave
without harrassment; to learn of their past;
to pass on their religious traditions; to
learn the language of their forebearers; to
train teachers and rabbis of future generations.
We remember the scores who sought to live
as Jews and struggled to leave for Israel and the land of our forebearers - but now
languish in Soviet labor camps. Their struggle against their oppressors goes on. They
will not be forgotten.
We will stand with them in their struggle
until the light of freedom and redemption
shines forth.
Passover Supplies
A check of local stores reveals that
Meijers has the best selection of Passover
supplies. They are carrying a fairly large
selection of various matzah products,
including meal, farfel, and cereal, plus
macaroons, potato starch, and soup.
D&W has a few things, including soup, cake
mix, and egg matzah.
For those willing to go farther, Wieners
deli in Grand Rapids has a very good
selection of Passover supplies.

Matzoh Is Matzoh
Why is matzoh called matzoh?
Because it has the shape of matzoh; it has
small holes like matzoh; it is dry as matzoh;
it tastes like matzoh. What else can you call
it but matzoh?
Matzoh Baking
(from "The Passover Anthology" by Philip
Goodman)
In about 1857 the first Matzoh-baking machine was invented in Austria, beginning a
heated controversy which raged for half a
century ••• (called) "one of the most acrimonious discussions in the history of the responsa literature." However, this should not be
surprising as this was, indeed, a radical innovation for the fulfilment of a duty whose
execution had long ago been elaborately defined to the minutest detail.
The newly invented machine kneaded the
dough and rolled it through two metal rollers
from which it came out thin, perforated and
round. It was then placed in an oven. As the
corners of the dough, cut to make the matzot
round, were re-used, it was feared that the
time elapsing until these pieces of dough
were used again might allow them to become
leavened. A later machine was developed which
produced square matzot so that there would be
no leftovers.

The Still Small Voice
by Abraham M. Klien
The candles splutter; and the kettle hums;
The heirloomed clock enumerates the tribes;
Upon the wine-stained tablecloth lie crumbs
Of matzoh whose wide scattering describes
Jews driven in far lands upon this earth.
The kettle hums; the candles splutter; and
Winds whispering from shutters tell rebirth
Of beauty rising in an eastern land,
Of paschal sheep driven in cloudy droves;
Of almond-blossoms coloring the breeze;
Of vineyards upon verdant terraces;
Of golden globes in orient orange-groves.
And those assembled at the table dream
Of small schemes that an April wind doth
scheme,
And cry from out the sleep assailing them,
Jerusalem, next year! Next year, Jerusalem!

�Editorial
by Aliyah Beruryah Schick
we introduced the material on the proposed
Chavurah Program (see accompanying article,
"Chavurah") at the March Board meeting. When
I finished explaining how a chavurah can meet
our needs for a sense of community, for active participation, meaningful guidelines for
life, and a sense of fulfillment, one of the
older Temple Board members was sitting on the
edge of his seat with his face all scrunched
up. I thought, "Oh no, he doesn't like it.
Too much change?" I took a breath, "You look
puzzled." I said.
"It's ten years too late!" he exclaimed.
It wasn't at all that he didn't like it. On
the contrary, it looks so good that one can't
help think that it would have made a real
difference in the past.
As he went on, I wondered if the rest of us
were going allow past experiences to stop us
from giving this hope for our present and future a real effort. I interrupted him, saying, "I hope that you can be supportive of
this if you think it is a good idea." He
looked up at me, not quite ready to have been
stopped from speaking.
A few minutes later, after we had gone on,
he said, "Yes! I will support this! It can
make a real difference. This is an important
thing you are doing here."
I agree. We all suffer from alienation and
loneliness, passivity and non-involvement,
lack of direction, insecurity, and a sense of
meaninglessness, not only in this society in
general, but within this congregation. We
like to think that we are warm and caring,
that we are "family". We want very much to be
that way. Perhaps the Chavurah Program can
help us do it. Wouldn't that be wonderful!
Spring Clean-Up
The annual spring clean-up of the Temple
grounds will take place on Sunday morning,
April 24th, 9am to noon or thereabouts. Last
year abottt a dozen people did wonders with
sweeping, raking, pruning, bagging, and
washing, and had a lot of fun at it!
If you would like to participate, please
call Rick Boyden, 798-1592, so he can plan
the work. Don't forget to bring your work
gloves, rakes, shovels, brooms, and pruning
equipment!
Building Accessibility
Temple President Bob Scolnik and the Board
of Trustees have been investigating the possibility of making our building more accessible for people who have difficulty with our
many stairs. Unfortunately, no viable solution has been discovered. If anyone has information or suggestions on the issue, please
contact Bob Scolnik.
Meanwhile, let's all be aware of the problem, and offer our arms to those who may appreciate a stabilizing hand on the stairs.
Chavurah
An exciting
result of the Temple Board
brainstorming sessions of recent months is
the effort to develop a Chavurah Program for
the congregation. Everyone who has been involved in the research and discussion of this
is very excited about the potential benefits
for our members.
"Chavurah" is the Hebrew word for "fellowship" which we are using to describe voluntary groups of 4 or 5 families who get together once a month for a meeting/program/activity which emphasizes Jewish values.
The following is exerpted from a paper by
Bernard Reisman, Ph.D., Brandeis University:
"A central characteristic of the chavurah
is that it offers its members the opportunity
to be a part of a small, intimate community.
Given the dissolution of extended family networks, the breakup of traditional neighborhoods, and the increasing bureaucratization
of most modern-day institutions, people have
few opportunities for primary group affiliations. For a lonely, alienated population,
the chavurah is a welcome antidote. Having a
small, fixed membership, the members come to
know one another as people and not as anonymous, interchangeable parts. They share with
one another major events and celebrations and
offer support when any of their members encounters loss or adversity.
" ••• Many contemporary Jews feel a sense of
meaninglessness in their lives. This condition is exacerbated by the fact that a significant proportion of Jews has eagerly pursued
and achieved a comfortable material existence
which has •.• failed to offer a sense of fulfillment. The need remains for a beliefsystem which can help them find meaning in
life beyond self-gratification.
" ••• If the chavurah were only a social
group it would be another of many selfgratifying, novel experiences. As an effort
to draw personal meaning from one's Jewishness and to contribute to Jewish continuity,
the chavurah is able to offer to members an
experience of transcendence. It moves beyond
the ordinary and is seen by the members as a
special and significant experience.
"The central thrust of contemporary society
is centrifugal. Opportunites for meaningful,
continuing, personalized associations are
diminishing. The chavurah is a centripetral
experience - one which brings people together
•.• (it) is an attempt to generate a greater
sense of ownership and participation by people for the individual and collective wellbeing ••• (it) provides (its members) with a
means of contributing to Jewish continuity
and through this they experience a sense of
purpose in their own lives."
Our Chavurah Committee welcomes your input
on this as they proceed with the specific
structure and design of the program. Please
contact any of the members with your comments
or questions: Aliyah Schick (chair), Merle
ScolniK, Alan Oppenheimer, Shoshana Stein,

York.
Barbara has been a teacher in the Muskegon
school system for 20 years. She holds a Bachelor's degree in education from Potsdam University in Potsdam, N.Y., and has done graduate work at Western University in Kalamazoo.
In addition, Barbara has been a member of
the Muskegon Teachers' Board for 10 years,
and she represents 191 teachers on the Muskegon Area Regional Council. In our Temple
Barbara has served 10 years on the Religious
School Board and 3 years on the Temple Board.
Barbara's husband, Bill, whom she married
when he was in the Air Force at West Hampton,
N.Y., grew up in Muskegon. He has several degrees, among them a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Grand Valley University. At present, he is in Quantico, Virginia, studying at the National F.B.I. Academy, which is the most prestigious school in
the country for law enforcement officers.
Janet is a graduate of the Nursing School
of Wyckoff Heights Hospital in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Her husband "Skip", who is an engineer at
Sealed Power, was a friend of Bill Reed and
also in the Air Corp at West Hampton when
Janet met and married him.
Janet is a successful business woman. Recently she established Shoreline Health Care
Services where she has 120 employees. In the
past she has cared for three of our Temple
members when they were seriously ill--Maurice
and Sue Friend, and Margaret Ashendorf.
Janet's six children were all born in Muskegon and are a credit to their parents.
Janet and Barbara, along with their husbands, did a superb job of helping our Russian family, the Spivaks. They did everything
from finding an apartment, collecting and
hauling in the donated furniture and household goods, and getting donations from area
food stores, to greeting the newcomers on
their arrival at the airport. Janet says that
hearing Igor exclaim, "This is America!" when
he got off the plane repaid them for all
their time and labors.

Israel Bond Holders
from the State of Israel Bond Office
Last year Michigan's Jewish Community was
urged to reinvest, at full maturity value,
State of Israel Bonds which were purchased in
1973 during the Yom Kippur War. As a result,
reinvestments of over $1,000,000 worth of
1973 Bonds were made during 1987 --BUT many
'73 Bonds are still out there in safe deposit
boxes, file cabinets and dresser drawers.
If you have reinvested your '73 Bonds, Israel thanks you, but if you have not, you are
again encouraged to find them and loan Israel
those dollars once more through the purchase
of a eurrent Israel security. In this way you
will renew your partnership with Israel and
help safegu&id her peacetime economy.
Additionally, as of January 1, 1988, the
Israel Bond Organization has been given permission by the Government of Israel to also
accept 1974 Bonds, maturing in 1989, for early reinvestment. This means that you will receive full maturity value for an '73 or '74
Bond which you use towards the purchase of a
current Israel security.
During this time of crisis in Israel, the
Jewish State needs, more than ever before, a
show of American-Jewish support for its
"right to exist• as an independent and secure
nation. Please call or write the Israel Bond
office, 24123 Greenfield Rd., Southfield, MI
48075, (313) 557-2900.
40 Years Ago ...
(from "My People", by Abba Eban)
On May 14, 1948 [5 Iyar 5708], Sir Alan
Cunningham, the High Commissioner, with the
last of his staff,left the soil of Palestine.
From a cruiser outside territorial waters he
signaled the end of the Mandatory era. It had
been born in high exaltation. It had now expired in chaos and discredit. In a short ceremony at the Museum of Tel Aviv at 4 P.M.
that day the State of Israel was born. Two
hundred forty men witnessed a new page in
Jewish history, as David Ben Gurion read the
Proclamation of Independence:
" ••• Accordingly we, members of the People's
Council,representatives of the Jewish Community of Eretz-Israel and of the Zionist Movement, are here assembled on the day of the
termination of the British Mandate over Eretz-Israel and, by virtue of our natural and
historic right and on the strength of the
resolution of the United Nations General Assembly, hereby declare the establishment of a
Jewish State in Eretz-Israel, to be known as
the State of Israel •••• "
When the proclamation had been read, its
signatories advanced to the table to give it
their sanction. The Hebrew benediction was
recited. "Blessed art Thou, 0 Lord our God,
King of the Universe, who hast kept us alive
and preserved us and enabled us to see this
day." Two hundred and forty filed out into
the sun-drenched street. The air-raid sirens
were sounding.
At the General Assembly in New York, Dr.
Silver broke in on the committee's debate to
announce that the State of Israel had been
established. In the White House, President
Truman sat with Marshall and Lovett, deliberating 9n a letter from Dr. Weizmann asking
for recognition of the Jewish State. At 5:16
P.M. President Truman authorized the recognition of Israel by the United States. American
diplomacy had taken an audacious and visionary course.
The news of President Truman's recognition
broke like a thunderbolt on the representatives of the UN in the General Assembly. It
astounded the American representatives themselves.The Soviet Union was the next to grant
recognition. The next morning,the young State
of Israel was plunged into war. As Egyptian
planes bombed the Tel Aviv area, the first
immigrant ship brought detained "illegals" to
the shores of a free country. In twenty-four
hours a Mandate had ended, a State had been
proclaimed and recognized, and an armed invasion launched. It was the most crowded day in
modern Jewish history.

Social
Action
by Shirley Rapoport
As the horror continues in Israel one looks
for Jewish voices to address it. Here is
Arthur Waskow of Philadelphia in "Sh'ma, a
Journal of Jewish Responsibility," April 15,
1988.
"At first Pharoah hardened his own heart.
When Israelite demonstrators come to him to
say 'Let our people go!' he responds with a
more bitter subjugation: 'Go make bricks
without straw.' When they persist and when
God--the very Truth and Power of the universe
--closes in upon him with the first few plagues, he hardens his heart and head still
more.
"And then God takes over. Pharaoh loses the
ability to choose. Even when his own advisers
say to him, 'Don't you understand that you
are destroying Egypt?' he cannot change. Now
God--Reality--is turning his rigidity, which
he thinks will save him, into what will actually destroy him.
"It is as if he has been smoking crack-once, twice, thrice, he is still choosing-and then the addiction takes over.
"Rarely have we faced the danger that the
leaders of the Jewish people might use power
in a Pharaonic way. Yet that is now our danger. That the Israeli government will become
addicted to its own rigidity, and bring down
upon Israel and all Jewry even worse plagues
than have already begun.
"If we want to prevent the recent choices
of hard-heartedness from becoming an addiction to hard-heartedness, the addiction that
brings down still worse plagues upon us, what
must we do? What would we do, what risks
would we take, to prevent a beloved sister,
brother, spouse, from becoming addicted to
crack?"
Here is Rabbi Balfour Brickner, same
source:
"American Jews need to begin a serious and
major effort to tell our political leadership
that they will not lose our support if they
advocate a two-state solution or suggest that
Israel sit down with the PLO as well as with
the Palestinians and those who speak for Arab
states."
Reeva Levy Moving
by Ruth Krause
Our dear friend, Reeva Levy, has moved this
April to live near her daughter, Sukey
Denniss. Her new address is Shalom Apts, il
Shalom Drive, Warwick, Rhode Island.
Reeva has lived in Muskegon since 1930, and
with her husband, Reuben, raised two fine
children here. She has been active in the
Temple as a Sunday School teacher, a choir
member and a study group participant. She has
been President of, and a hard worker in, both
Sisterhood and Hadassah, and has given many
volunteer hours to the Red Cross. In recent
years illness has slowed her activity, but it
has not dimmed her interest in the community
or her love for the Temple.
We will miss you greatly, Reeva, and we
wish you health and contentment in your new
home.
�A"Bichur

Rabbi's Message
by Rabbi Alan Alpert
Neither the Holocaust nor Passover were
complete in and of themselves. The Rabbis
have taught us that the Exodus of Passover
was completed only after God gave us the
Torah at Shavuot. The Passover-Shavuot connection serves to broaden our perspective and
to see that the freedom from slavery needed
to include the transformation which would
give us the freedom to lead a godly life
based on the teachings of the Torah. That
message was and continues to be central in
our Jewish Heritage.
The link between Passover and Shavuot is a
natural one. What can possibly be linked to
the Holocaust which will give it meaning to
future generations? It is so difficult to see
through the smoke of the chimneys. We live
too close to the hellish era to see anything
but brutality, cowardice, and evil. The dark
cloud of the Holocaust is still on the horizon threatening to open up with drops of
blood and tears. For us the message is "Never
Again."
However, there is a link. It is what Rabbi
Harold Schulweis calls "Hakarat hatov"--the
recognition of goodness. Despite the darkness
there were courageous men, women, and children who braved all odds and risked everything
to save Jewish lives. These Righteous Christians redeemed the image of man from the
abyss. In the April issue of "Moment" Rabbi
Schulweis writes that " ... 'Hakarat hatov' is
an affirmation that human nature goes beyond
selfishness. 'Hakarat hatov' is not a denial
of the presence of cruelty in human society,
but a refusal to be blinded by cynicism and
despair. It is the effort to make ourselves
aware of human kindness and self sacrifice.
Nor is 'hakarat hatov' simply a passive acknowledgment of goodness. It entails a moral
imperative to cherish and protect goodness.
It is incumbent on us to remember goodness
and to add some measure of joy to the rescuers among us."
There has never been a full accounting of
what happened to the rescuers and how they
are living today. However it is known that
Righteous Christians were often held in contempt, persecuted, or worse for their heroic
actions by their own neighbors and countrymen. Today many live desperate lives in need
of emotional, medical, and financial help.
Rabbi Schulweis points out that " •.• the
· memory of evil and the record of its acts are
better known than the memory of goodness and
its deeds. That evil should be enshrined in
our annals while goodness is ignored or barely footnoted is a tragic miscarriage of justice."

From Our President
by Robert Scolnik, Congregation President
Last week Israel celebrated its 40th anniversary. I, as I am sure many of you do, read
the daily accounts of violence in Israel and
wonder about the future. We are all very much
concerned about where the Jewish state is
headed. I wish I had some answers to these
very tough problems but I do not.
I know that many of my fellow Jews are
quick to criticize Israel and we are sometimes our own worst critics. But Israel at 40
has seen other tough times and this latest
violence is just another addition to the pattern of hostility which pervades the Middle
East.
Israel's accomplishments over the last 40
years will probably be overshadowed by this
latest violence. How this small country grew
from a desert to a great modern nation in
just 40 short years is a miracle. And I can
only hope and believe that this latest crisis
will also be solved. I hope that you will
continue to support Israel and that our prayers for peace will be answered.

�The Torah at Buchenwald
from The Ye llow Star, by S.B.Unsdorf e r
Strangely enough it was on th e pyre of th e
camp, in that nellhole of Buchenwald, that 1
received my first injection of vitamin R -Religious Revival.
A few days before our scheduled departure
for Czechoslovakia, the camp loudspeakers
blazed out an announcement that the Jewish
chaplain to the U.S. forces would be conducting religious services in the evening to mark
the festival of Shavuot -- the anniversary of
the receiving of the Law by the Jewish people
on Mount Sinai.
Having lost my handwritten diary, as well
as my Haggadah, during the march from NiederOrschel to Buchenwald, this announcement came
as a pleasant yet disturbing surprise.
Since my childhood I had always looked forward eagerly to the arrival of our wonderful
and inspiring festivals, and particularly so
in the tragic war years. But I wondered whether we weren't being put to a test too soon.
Who among those thousands of physical and
mental cripples would want to attend services
and prayers so soon after their tragic experiences? The Festival of the Receiving of the
Torah! Within a few weeks after liberation,
religion, which had seemed to do so little
for us, was now challenging us and our loyalties.
But just as you cannot measure the physical
strength of an oppressed people, so you cannot gauge its spiritual wealth and power.
On that evening, Buchenwald staged a fantastic demonstration or f-ait
nd 1-eyttlty to
God. Thousands upon thousands of liberated
Jews crowded into the specially vacated block
for the first postwar Jewish religious service to be held on the soil of defeated Germany. The "Mussulmanner", the cripples, the
injured, and the weak came to demonstrate to
the world that the last ounce of their
strength, the last drop of their blood, and
the last breath of their lives belonged to
God, to Torah, and to the Jewish religion.
As Chaplain [Herschel] Schacter intoned the
evening prayers, all the inmates in and outside the block stood in silence, reaccepting
the Torah whose people, message, and purpose
Hitler's Germany had attempted to destroy.
Jewish history repeated itself. Just as our
forefathers who were liberated from Egypt accepted the Law in the desert, so did we, the
liberated Jews of Buchenwald, reaccept the
same Law in the concentration camps of Germany.

creatlve services the class will write a
creative service. Plan to join the Rabbi in
the Temple Social Hall May 13, 20, and 27, at

Rabbi's Message, continued
Last year Rabbi Schulweis established the
Fund to Sustain Righteous Christians in order
to recognize the goodness and prevent that
miscarriage of justice. The Fund is concerned
with identifying the rescuers, retelling
their stories, and entering into their lives
so that they need not be alone and that they
will be able to live their final years with
companionship, peace, and respect.
We must never forget the evil of the Holocaust. At the same time we cannot ignore the
goodness. The message of "Never Again" must
be forged with "hakarat hatov" so that future
generations will see a broader perspective,
root out evil, and cherish goodness.
Action is long overdue to assist the rescuers. Rabbi Shulweis notes, "The time is short
but whatever powers we have, we must let
these rescuers and the world know that they
are not alone. These remarkable spirits who
would not betray the image of God in them
must be helped through our friendship to live
out their remaining years in dignity. They
are models for the education of our young.
They remind us of the possibilities of working for a better future and a healthier society." Don't forget these ordinary people who
were so extraordinary. Please give generously
to the Fund to Sustain Righteous Christians,

�Torah
Silver
from the Temple House
Committee
In conjunction with our project to completely clean up our Temple, our Torah silver
needs cleaning and polishing. We would like
to have help from congregants to do this. Every two months would be a practical interval
for polishing the breast plates,Torah crowns,
and pointers.
We are hopeful that we will have enough
members in our congregation to help with this
project. Instruction is available, and people
can work together. If you would like to be a
polisher once or twice a YEAR, contact Alan
Oppenheimer, 755-2814.
It has been said that to work with Torahs
is a mitzvah. Even if it isn't wouldn't you
feel good all over?

Centennial
Notes
(From the Winter 1988
issue of the "Muskegon
Intermediate School District News")
submitted by Sylvia Kaufman
The Jewish Centennial Education Committee
for area schools is coordinating interdisciplinary learning activities in recognition of
the Centennial of Congregation B'nai Israel.
Over two years of planning by the Community
Centennial Committee has flowered into a
dynamic year of cultural and artistic events
beginning in September, 1988.
Teachers are encouraged to take advantage
of events such as the photographic exhibit
from the Anne Frank home and the theatrical
production of "The Diary of Anne Frank" by
Muskegon Civic Theatre. Itzhak Perlman, Jeffrey Siegel, and the Soviet Emigre Orchestra
are a few of the performing musicians that
are scheduled for next year. Artists and enthusiasts will be thrilled with the Chagall
exhibit and children's art from the Israeli
Kibbutz. Many lectures, slide shows, films,
and videos will be available.
Preview and inservice opportunities will be
announced by the MAISD for the educational
video series. "Heritage, Civilization and the
Jews." Other materials will be available for
coordinating committee members listed [for
each of the twelve participating school
districts) .••
Our community has a unique opportunity
through this Centennial celebration to realize a greater appreciation of Jewish life
and culture and its contributions to society.
Teachers are encouraged to help students take
advantage of the many opportunities provided
during the Centennial year. Similar observances of other cultures could be planned along the lines represented by the Jewish Centennial model.

�Criticizing Israel
(exerpts from A.M. Rosenthal, Detroit Free
Press, March 9, 1988)
Many of us have been saying the same things
about Israel: Israel cannot go on forever being an occupying power. Jews must not break
bones. Israeli use of force against young Palestinians is costing Israel support around
the world. Israel must enter negotiations on
Gaza and the West Bank.
Right--but sometimes when I hear or read
these points, which I have made myself, made
over and over by others, I find myself deeply
uneasy. It is not because there is no validity in them,but because so often they are presented empty of the historic realities that
brought about the crisis and must be understood tb find a way out.
This is an attempt to set down the political, military and historic truths that raise
fears about the road that many American intellectuals, journalists and senators are demanding Israel take.
CAUSES: The critics' implication is that
the cause of the current crisis is Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir's opposition to an international conference and his refusal to agree in advance to cede West Bank territory.
This is not true. The cause is 40 years of
Arab refusal to accept the existence of Israel,40 years of furious hostility and military
attempts to destroy Israel.
You do not have to like Shamir to realize
that if the Arabs had accepted Israel in the
beginning or for 20 years thereafter, all of
the West Bank and Gaza and other territory
would today be part of a Palestinian state.
If you believe that the very existence of
Israel is anathema,you are right to see Israel's policies as the root cause of the Mideast ugliness--otherwise not.
OCCUPATION: Some critics also act as if it
were Israeli occupation of the West Bank and
Gaza in 1967 that led to so many years of unrest and skirmishing there.
This, too, is historic distortion. It was
the Arat countries that seized Gaza and the
West Bank, which were to be part of the Palestinian state under the 1947 United Nations
partition plan,and occupied them for 20 years
--not in peace but with constant harassment
and attack against Israel.
Finally,Israel struck back. Israel's unhappy occupation of the West Bank is a result,
not the cause,of aggression--Arab aggression.
NEGOTIATION: With whom and for what? The
United States proposes an international conference with the Big Five participating.Since
Britain and France are cool to Israel and the
Soviet Union and China are hostile, the chicken is being invited to negotiate under the
sponsorship of four foxes and a lame dove. To
think the major powers would not pressure Israel for Arab advantage is not only naive but
black comedy.
It is not the Big Five Israel must live
with, but the Palestinians and other Arabs.
Which Arab states have promised to negotiate
directly with Israel? None.Which Arab leaders
are criticizing Palestinians sworn to the elimination of Israel? Where are the "moderate"
(continued next column, see "Criticizing")
Historical Notes:
Stone for Our Temple
by Alan Oppenheimer
I came across something that might be of
interest to the readers of the Temple bulletin. It is a file entitled "Specifications
for the Construction of a Jewish Center and
House of Worship, Muskegon, Michigan." Dated
April 12, 1946, architects: Grunsfeld,
Yerkes, Lichtmann, & Koenig, of Chicago.
"All of the following shall be of rockfaced Ashlar: all wall surfaces of the building proper, including the garden side of the
retaining walls enclosing the sunken gardens
which are entered from the stairs leading
from Webster Avenue, the garden side of the
reflecting pool walls and the exposed faces
of the walls leading to the sunken garden."
I think that there are a number of congregants who are not aware that the area in
front of the Temple office windows, now covered with greenery, was originally a reflecting pool, which did contain water.
The specifications also call for the use of
some cut stone and some dressed stone, with
this notation: "All stone is to be Lannon
Stone, taken from the quarries of the Wisconsin Lannon Stone Corporation at Lannon, Wisconsin. The color shall be quarry run,approximately 10% in light buff color, but NO rust
colored stones shall be used."
Criticizing, continued
Palestinians who can swerve the young men of
Gaza and the West Bank away from seeking
Israel's death?
STAKES: Israel is fighting for survival.The
Arab states are fighting out of anti-Israel
hatred and fear of the Palestinians. The
young Palestinians are fighting for a new Palestinian state because they hate the ruler
of a present state with a Palestinian majority:Jordan.They plan to eliminate King Hussein
one day and swallow Jordan as part of their
own single Palestine.
As things stand, any ceded West Bank territory will become a de facto state run by the
Palestine Liberation Organization and other
Palestinians sworn to destroy Israel. Those
young Palestinians would be hurling not
stones from their territory but rockets.
SOLUTIONS: Open pressure on Israel to make
concessions must be accompanied by open pressure on the Arabs. Palestinians must accept
totally and clearly the right of Israel to
live forever, secure and in peace. The United
States and the Arab leaders can achieve this
and guarantee it, if we have the will and
they the courage.
Shamir may not promise in advance to cede
"territory for peace"--that is what direct
talks are for--but the definition of peace
cannot mean Palestinians continuing war to
the death. They,too,must feel hard pressure
to do some ceding, specifically of their
demand for another Palestinian state in a
region where one already exists, and to negotiate in peaceful stages for the eventual
goal: a single Jordan-Palestine.
Americans have a right to criticize Israel.
They have a right to suggest solutions--but
not the suggestion of suicide.

Rides to Temple
4 f you need a ride to Temple, or if you are
available to give one, please call Al Parker,
at 755-2924, preferably two days before the
event. He will help coordinate rides.
Computer for Temple
The Board has decided to begin the process
of getting a computer for the Temple office.
The computer will handle word processing, the
newsletter, mailing list, financial records,
yahrzeits, etc.
The first step is to ask if anyone has an
IBM compatible computer that they would be
willing to donate. If you would consider
this, please contact Les Schick, 744-0452, or
Bob Scolnik, 780-2748.
Spruce-up
Thanks to the efforts of the Temple House
Committee and Sisterhood our Temple building
is being dramatically spruced up! We can
really be proud of it!
With new wallpaper, paint, and upholstery
the Sisterhood has completely transformed the
downstairs women's lounge and bathroom.
Sisterhood workers have now turned their
attention to the painting of the kitchen and
the social hall.
Members of the House Committee Julia
Bruelbeck and Alan Oppenheimer recently spent
four hours evaluating the cleaning needs of
our building, from top to bottom. Their goal
of establishing a routine cleaning plan for
our custodian has expanded to include some
additional plans for extra cleaning to really
spruce up the facility.
Note the appeal for volunteers to clean the
Torah silver (see page 9), and the outdoor
grounds spring clean up scheduled for April
24th (see page 4). Let's renew our pride in
our building and in our congregation! Get
involved!
(exerpt from the Conference of Presidents of
Major American Jewish Organizations}
Q:Does the Palestinian struggle differ from
the struggles of South African blacks or the
opposition of South Korea or from the American civil rights movement?
A:Yes. All those movements have sought to
win rights denied them by their governments.
They have not sought to deny the rights of
others, nor have they announced as their purpose the destruction of the governments whose
policies they seek to change, nor have they
rejected any invitation to negotiate a peaceful resolution of their differences with
these governments. The Palestinians have never given negotiation a chance •
Nothing could be farther from the Christian
nonviolence of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,
than the premeditated murder of women and
children that the PLO has consistently offered instead of diplomacy.
The comparison of Israel to South Africa,
though often made, is especially grotesque •••
Israel is a democratic state, all of whose
citizens are entitled to vote, regardless of
color or religion. Israeli Arabs serve in the
high ranks of the army and represent Israel
as members of its diplomatic corps.
Israel assumed the responsibility for the
occupied territories as a result of a war
which it did not want and was forced to fight
in its own defense. It is surrounded by hostile neighbors who, for the past forty years
(with the exception of Egypt},have maintained
an unremitting military and diplomatic siege.
The white government in Pretoria turns a deaf
ear to all calls for negotiations. The Israeli government, by contrast, calls for negotiations and is met with silence.
Kids:
Picture This!
You're spending this summer
swimming, boating, playing softball, horseback riding,
singing, dancing, drawing, making lifelong
friends, and learning about what it means to
be Jewish. Doesn't that sound great?
It IS great! It's Olin-Sang-Ruby Union Institute, the Reform movement Camp in Ocomonowoc, WiscGnsin. If you're entering 3rd
through 12th grades, you can do all this and
more. OSRUI has an extensive arts program, a
fabulous creative Hebrew program, and a beautiful lakefront.
There are six different units from which to
choose, depending on your age and interests:
The main section is Kallah (grades 3-8), but
there are also three tenting units --Kibbutz
HaTzofim (grades 4-8), Moshava (grades 9-12),
and Mosh West (grades 10-13) --and two Hebrew
units --Chavurah (grades 8 and 9) and Chalutzim (grades 10 and 11).
OSRUI truly has something for everyone.
Most sessions are still open, but they won't
be for long. For registration information
contact the Camp office at 100 W. Monroe St.,
Chicago, IL 60603, (312) 782-1477
�Youth Happening
On April 15th the teens of our Congregation
are planning to have a social event and sleep
over at the Temple. The last time they did
this it was a lot of fun and judged successful by everyone. If you haven't signed up for
this, do it quick!
More adults are needed to help with the
event. If you would like to participate, to
volunteer or need more information, please
call Merle Scolnik, 780-2748.
Special Thanks
Special thanks go to Julia Bruelbeck for
HAND WASHING our two Israel flags. They had
become discolored over the years; now they
are clean and they sparkle!

On behalf of the Temple Board, I would like to extend best wishes
for a healthy and happy New Year to all our Congregants . We'll be
looking forward to seeing you at services .
Dr. Morton S . Kantor, President of Conj;..regation
This decade has seen many changes for the betterment of mankind,
changes ranging from hwnanitarian causes, such as civil rights, to
technological achievements, marked by the recent landing on the moon .
The Jews, by nature of tradition, have been leaders in this quest
for advancement.
On behalf of Muskegon Temple Youth, I wish you the best and most
fruitful of New Years. I ask you, as J ews, to join hands with other
people, young and old, to adopt a new outlook on life and think of
the words of Bobby Kennedy, when he said: "Some men see things as they
are and say 1~Jhy?' . I dream things that never were and say 'Why not? 1 ,
I am looking forward to serving you in the coming year . L'shona tova.
Steve Rothschild, _President Temple Youth Group
May the voice of the messenger of Good Tidings resound from the
mountain top of this Rosh Hashonah announcing peace and salvation for
all mankind. L'shonoh Tovah Tikatevu!.
Mrs. Daniel Silberman, President Sisterhood
With the coming of the New Year we look forward with renewed hope
to the Year of Peace for all men in all lands . May you enjoy good
health, an optimistic attitude, and joy in part,icipating and contributing in our community endeavors to reach this obtainable goal!
In Hadassa¥, we, of course are concerned about the State of Israel
and its security in the Mid-East continuing struggle . Let us work
even harder with greater dedication on our home front to insure its
survival . L 1 Shona Tova .

My
Dearest Friends)
May this New Year bring to you
measure of God's blessings for
dedication, reconsecration and
hands prosper and may the joys
peace.
and to your loved ones the fullest
life, health~ happiness and for
self-renewal. May the work of your
of living bring you contentment and
If His will be other than that for which you have prayed, may the
beauty of your heritage and your future strengthen and console you.
May those who look to you and who depend upon you be made steadfast
by your faith and your trust, whether you encounter happiness or
tragedy.
The greatest lesson of the "Days of Awe" is truly humility--not to
be self-effacing but to face all facets of life, to confront our
fellow man 1 s humanity, and to put them all within the harmony of life.
God has stored up His goodness for us. May He strengthen you to create
from that storehouse of blessings your inner tranquillity and your
peace with your fe~Jow man.

�Dear Friends,
The thought occurs to me that most of us h2.ve had a long"vacection"
away from Temple Services during the summer mbnths. I'm not discussing
the pros or cons of this arrangement, but rather the results. Our
spiritual needs are greater now, after the draught, and our stored
spiritual energies are at the lowest ebb. If I may make a comparision
with the stored energies of an automobile, I may say that our batteries
are weak from using electrical power without the "generators' working •
We all can use a "spiritual charge 11 of the long lasting variety--not the
quick type. Let us all endeavor to attend the High Holy Day Services
a s well as many of the regular Sabbath Services during the coming year.
My family and I wish you a New Year of Health and Happiness.
Your Loving President,
Arthur H. Greenber~

B' NAI BRITH CONVENTION HELD IN JULY
The Sherman House in Chicago, over
July 11 - 14 was the scene of trn 97th
District Grand Lodge #6 Convention of
B 'nai :dri th. I-resent were your delegates,
Ed Krause, Joseph Simon and myself, Jim
F-rice, who were privile ge d to represent
you, our brothers of Abraham Rosen Lodge,
Muskegon~
· The Convention delegates numbe~ed over
540, representing approximately 45,000
· - members froni eight states and four provinces
of Canada. Needless to say, in this
setting, it was inspiring . Her e is where,
in an atmosphere truly :..,efitting our motto ,
"Brotherly Love, Benevolence and .-iarmony",
the b'nai Brith programs both locally and
nationally are examined, re-examined and
if necessary revised in a perpetual attempt
to keep pace with our needs in this rapidly
changing world.
Here is wre re it is also abundantly
clear that no amount of planning, hoping-dreaming--can be accomplished unle s s it is
coupled with the full support of the individual Lodge members. If it were not for
the collective efforts of over 550,000 B'nai
Brith members working: together in this uniquily structured organizati on in over 40
countries, B1 nai 0rith would cease to exist
as tre ]a rgest J ewish organization in
the world.
R.s we enter a new year for B'nai Brith
here in Muske gon, l e t us r e-dedicate ourselves -- give more willingl · of our time
00 of our "Fair Share ", so that we may truly
be worthy of our title, "Sons of the
Covenant".

RABBI TO YOU
My Dearest Friends •••...• both near and far,
May this New Yea r bring to you and to your loved ones the fullest
measure of God's blessings for life, health, happines s and fordedication, reconsecra tion and self-renewal. May the work of your
hands prosper and may the joys of living bring you content::tent and
peace .
If His will be other than t hat for which you have prayed, nay the
beauty and holiness of your heritage strengthen and console you.
May those who look to yo'J. and who depend upon you be r:iade steadfast by your faith and your trust, whsther you encounter happiness
or tragedy.
The greatest lesson of the "Days of Awe" is truly humility--not
to be self-effacing but to face all facets of life, to confront
our fellowr1an I s humanity , and to place them all wi thi..TJ. the harmony
of life.
God has stored. up His goodness for us . May He strengthen you to
create fror1 that s tore 1.:ouse of blessings your inner tr3.Ilquillit y
and your p~ace with your fellow man .
