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.

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. �Recipes for Passover EGGLESS SWEET MATZO BRIE(serves 4-6) (from "Jewish Vegetarian Cooking") Blend together: 1 C milk 2 ripe bananas 1/4 tsp. cinnamon soak 8 matzot, broken into pieces, in the above mixture.

Form pyramid shape clusters on a lightly oiled cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. (Note: Coconut is high in saturated fat.) 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. I I 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, Ruth Krause, Les Schick, an_g Rabbi Alpert. �• Howard Wolpe Meet Janet Hunter and Barbara Reed Representative Howard Wolpe will be our guest speaker on Friday, April 29. Services will begin at 8:00, followed by Rep. Wolpe's talk. An Oneg will follow. If you would like to join Rep. Wolpe for dinner before services at 6 pm, please call the Temple office. by Gertrude Greenberg Our Temple family can be extremely proud of our twin sisters, Janet Hunter and Barbara Reed, who came to us from Long Island, New 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. New Members Deborah and Ira Socol and their son Jamie have joined our congregation. They moved here from New York, where Ira was with the Bronx police department and Deborah prepared museum art exhibits. Here in Muskegon they have opened the new art gallery and framing shop, Deborah's Choice, and Ira is establishing a freelance graphic arts business, using his skills and training in graphic arts from MSU. Let's give them a warm welcome! Photograph'? Our Temple Historical Committee would like to borrow a photograph of the Webster Street side of the Temple building, showing the reflecting pool. This is for possible inclusion in the - history book for the Centennial. Please contact Alan Oppenheimer at once.

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. �,=\ ·• · \·i\ .

I It 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 Mitzvah holim," the mitzvah of visiting and care of the sick is an important mitzvah. By remembering the sick it is considered as if taking away part of the illness. During Evelyn Singer's hospitalization it would be nice to let her know that we are thinking of her.

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." (continued next page) 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. AnnUAL ITTEET,nu Ana ELECT,□n �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.

Bring your own brown bag lunch. 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.

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."

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. �a·& Aon Israel L. .J Re,. /5/>D •, :, :•··il · •: •: · Hem~r4 ····•·W·W 1·1 ............... .., we,, ~rn r 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.

Page 2 ATTENDANCE AT SlliVICES UftGED We would like to remind our congregation that as of this date, religion is not dead in our Temple . We are endeavoring to continue with regular Friday night services each week, with different members of the congregation conducting the services . These members put in time and effort in order to try to do a good job. They prepare for the services , and write their own commentaries or sermonettes, all in an effort to maintain the continuity of services . Our atten~ dance on some Friday nights has been extremely poor, and it is discouraging to the people who are trying to do a job. A few of our members have sain that since we do not have a rabbi, they are not interested in attending Friday ni~ht services , This is truly an example of profound thinking and logic . 'l'he truth of the matter is that when the going is a bit rough, that is the t~~e when we need all the support we can get . Perhaps many of our congregation would do well to abandon their attitude of 11 Here I am -entertain me 11 , and give their support . These people are the very ones who would shriek to the heavens if we were to make the announcement, "Sorry no services in our Temple 11 • It would be well for all to examine their consciences and realize that there are certain obligations to the Temple and to t hose who are working for it. �UNION TlfoMCSGIVING SERVICE SET Temple B 1nai Israel Congregants are urged to attend the Annual Union Thanksgiving Service to be held Hednesday, November 26, at 8:00 PH at the Gentral Methodist Church.

Annette Libner, Secretary "RECIPE FOR GROWING UP" Teenagers want to be grown-up; the process is always difficult, for them and for those around them . I humbly submit Ten Commandments to teenagers, as a recipe for growing up. Here they are: 1. 2, BE TRUE to your best self - not to the child-personality you are discarding! BE TOLEI-Ji.NT of your parents; they really love you! 3. BE ThCTFUL with your parents' friends; why insult them with rudeness? 4. BE TOUGH-SKINNED enough to differ from the crowa; any boob can inimate everyone else! 5. BE TOUGH-MINDED before arriving at your own opinions; don't 1 fall 11 fihr every fad! BE TEi. JJEFu1.TE toward the opinions of others; you are not required to know everything! 7. BE TRUSTFUL toward the future and mankind; people are not so bad after all . 8 . BE THhN'KFUL for your blessings; just living in the free,plentiful air of United States is a privilege ! 9. BE THOUGHTFUL of the people around you; then you won't brood so much about yourself. 10.
