Aside from cessation of work and the bringing of specific sacrifices, this is the only biblical commandment connected with Rosh Hashanah. Some scholars have suggested that the making of loud noises on the New Year (a common practice even in the modem world) was originally connected with an attempt to frighten demons away so that the forces of good would triumph and the New Year would be a happy one.

From the President As the holidays approach, I want to share with you a message from Timothy Cardinal Dolan as published in the New York Post. He writes about how we all need G-d and of how the Jewish High Holy Days inspires him. Enjoy… Mea culpa! I know I’m violating the teaching of the sacred scriptures we Catholics and Jews both revere, but I have to confess I’m envious of the Jewish High Holy days. Yes, we have Christmas and Easter, and cherish them. But they come in winter and spring. My Jewish friends celebrate their pivotal solemnities — Rosh Hashanah, the New Year, and Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement — in the beautiful and uplifting season of autumn. What a grand backdrop for a time of renewed faith. In the fall, nature is in transition. As the winds get chillier, the trees more barren and the light of day less radiant, we can’t help think of our own fleeting nature. We, like creation, are constantly on a journey: birth, growth, love, life, strength — then slowing down, aging, sensing frailty and admitting mortality. For a skeptic or one without faith, such an admission of an inevitable personal winter can cause some discouragement, trepidation and anxiety. For a believer, it prompts trust, gratitude and a constant search for the one thing that will never fail, fade or pass: The Lord. My Jewish friends have the help of this season of change to make their holy days so meaningful. A dear rabbi friend explained to me that every Jewish feast comes down to an interior whisper, in concert with the psalmist, that “only in G-d is my soul at rest.” G-d is always there, ever good, constantly faithful. The Holy Days, he added, allow us to admit “we’re not always good or faithful to the Lord.” Rosh Hashanah occasions gratitude and a fresh start; Yom Kippur, sorrow, atonement, renewal. The rabbi concluded that this week he and his congregation would be articulating once more the most ancient longing of humanity: We need G-d. It reminds me of the historic Mass Pope Saint John Paul offered before 2 million Poles on the final day of his triumphant visit home in June 1979. Those Poles, whose hope had been revived after decades of Nazi and Communist lies and oppression, interrupted his sermon with 11 minutes of a three-word chant: “We want G-d!” Page 4 NHC Bulletin Elul 5779 — Tishrei 5780 September 2019

They had been through a long autumn and winter and knew by then that G-d and G-d alone can quench the thirst of the heart. So, we ask, as summer fades and the warmth goes south, what can we really rely on? Is there anyone who does not change, any place where it’s always spring, anything where decline and death does not prevail? My Jewish friends are going to inspire me this week by turning the darkening of October days into the eternal light of faith, the dying of nature into an act of hope in the eternal G-d of life, the chill of autumn breezes into the warmth of family, friends, tradition, home and prayer. Do you mind if we Catholics unite with you spiritually? Lord knows we, like you, look around our world and are tempted to autumn sentiments of fear and discouragement. Thanks for this reminder that “only in G-d are our souls at rest.” Let’s find Him, worship Him, love and serve Him together. Blessed Holy Days. It is my hope that this year we decide that we all need G-d, and that should be a year of inspiration. We should be inspired to not only improve ourselves, but also, the world around us.

Cantor Barry’s Tales It seems that time once again is moving all too quickly. Summer is coming to a close and September, the holidays and the new school year are around the corner. As I write this, we have just completed Tisha Ba'av (\"the saddest day of the year\"). For me, it’s a difficult (fasting!) but meaningful day. The pain of our great losses is graphically detailed in eicha (the book of lamentations) and to me it’s a spiritual punch in the gut; the sinathinam (baseless hatred) that fueled our destruction seems as present today as ever. But to get to the high of the High Holidays, I need the low of Tisha B'av. This year we met as a community at Camp Ramah in Nyack to pray together. I was uplifted by the Ramah staff, our youth. And it was comforting to be in the presence of friends from our community. After services, I noticed that I could see the Hudson River and remembered how blessed I am to live in Rockland. So bring on September. I’m ready. Cantor Barry Kanarek September 2019 Elul 5779 — Tishrei 5780 NHC Bulletin Page 7

Zachary Spiegel’s Address to the Congregation at the August 10 Shabbat Service Shabbat Shalom. My name is Zachary Spiegel. I have been a member of Nanuet Hebrew Center since I was an infant. I am currently a Sophmore at Nanuet High School and I am a Boy Scout. I am working on becoming an Eagle Scout. In order to achieve the rank of Eagle Scout, I must complete a project that gives me the opportunity to “plan, develop, and give leadership to others.” The project should benefit your community. I want my project to benefit Nanuet Hebrew Center. My project is a Holocaust Memorial Garden at Nanuet Hebrew Center. As Jews it is our duty to remember. It is much easier to remember the horrors of the Holocaust after hearing survivors tell their stories first hand. But as the number of Holocaust survivors dwindles year after year, remembrance becomes less possible. My great grandfather, Grischa Frishman, lost his entire family in the Holocaust. When he was a teen, he was a Boy Scout. He and his friends formed a Jewish troop. They trained, earned badges and medals. Their goal was to go to Palestine. Unfortunately, at the same time the Nazis were a growing threat. His mother sensed something was happening in Europe and wanted him to leave the country before it was too late. He was dating my great grandmother Sonia when her family migrated from Poland to Cuba to escape the coming dark times. Sonia and Grischa wanted to get married, but Grischa could not get out of Poland because he was on the list to be drafted into the army. Even if he got out, Cuba would not allow a single unattached man to enter the country. The families made a plan and Grischa was married to Sonia by proxy so he could get into Cuba. Then he switched identities with his best friend, Motel (Muh-til) Milamed so he could get out of Poland, My Aunt Karen met Motel when she was a teenager visiting Israel. Grischa took a train to France and then a boat to Cuba. His entire family later vanished. It is said there are three types of death: • Once when the soul leaves the body • Second when the body is buried in the ground • The third death is when the last person who remembers dies. My goal is to build a very special, physical space for the congregation to go to “remember.” I’m planning on creating a large Jewish star planter out of lumber in a 10x10 foot area in the back of the building on the grassy hill. Surrounding the star will be a wooden frame and in each corner of the star we will plant yellow daffodils. Yellow Daffodils are the official flower of the Holocaust. The areas without flowers will have decorative stones called river rounds. What is cool about this garden is that we will be building it on the hill in the back of the building so we could all see it from the rear windows the lobby and the minyin room. I would be happy to answer any questions during kiddush after services. I am looking for help funding this project. If you would like to help I have a go fund me page or you could write a check to Nanuet Hebrew Center and write Zack’s Eagle Scout project in the memo. Any excess funds will belong to Nanuet Hebrew Center and I hope it will be used to help fund any needed maintenance and hopefully to purchase a memorial stone in the center of the star. Thank you and I look forward to working with everyone. Shabbat Shalom. September 2019 Elul 5779 — Tishrei 5780 NHC Bulletin Page 9

(Continued from cover) There is no evidence that this approach informed the act of blowing the shofar in the religion of ancient Israel. Nonetheless, it is interesting to note that the Talmud ascribes to the shofar the power “to confuse the accuser,” suggesting that the sound of the sho- far would destroy the power of Satan to speak against Israel on these holy days. Latter day mystics, following this talmudic tradition, added a collection of verses from Psalms to be read before the blowing of the shofar. One of them, Min hameitzar (out of the depths), is composed of an acrostic that reads kerasatan (destroy Satan). Another ancient use of the horn on the New Year was to proclaim the coronation of the victori- ous gods. We can see how this practice has been reinterpreted in Jewish tradition, which sees Rosh Hashanah as the day when God, having completed the work of creation, is crowned king. In the words of the psalmist, “With trumpets and the blast of the horn, raise a shout before the Lord, the king” (Psalms 98:6). Over the course of time, other meanings were ascribed to the symbol of the shofar. The most important is the connection made between the horn of the New Year and the horn of the ram in the story of the binding of Isaac. According to the Midrash, God instructed Abraham that whenever his children were in danger of punishment because of sin, they were to blow the sho- far–the horn of the ram caught in the thicket. That act would “remind God,” as it were, of the merits earned by the binding of Isaac, and the people would therefore be forgiven. The biblical idea of “remembrance” is thus enhanced with another meaning: God recalls the merit of Isaac and so redeems us from punishment for sin. The blowing of the shofar, then, serves to signify not only the coronation of God, but a means of arousing God to mercy. excerpted from The Origins of the Shofar by Rabbi Dr. Reuven Hammer in Entering the High Holy Days, published by the Jewish Publication Society. ww.myjewishlearning.com/article/ the-origins-of-the-shofar/ Page 10 NHC Bulletin Elul 5779 — Tishrei 5780 September 2019

Hazak Here we are on our trip to West Point on August 1. The bus tour of West Point was very interesting. If you haven’t been there, we would highly recommend it. The bus tour lasted about an hour and a half. There was also an exhibit to walk through at the visitor’s center. Do you know what Cooperstown and Hazak have in common? Come to our next meeting on September 5 and find out. Membership is only $18.00 a year. (That’s only $1.50 per month.) We hope you all had a wonderful summer. And now here are a few words of wisdom to help get you through the year: That’s the whole point in life, to get older. So the idea of not celebrating it doesn’t  make sense.  By the time a man realizes that his father was right, he has a son who thinks he’s  wrong.  My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start:  So  far I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake.   I feel better already.  And now some advice for the dating scene: Ed: Your girlfriend told me you never buy her flowers. Fred: I didn’t even know she sold them. Have a very happy and healthy new year. La Shana Tova.

In Our Mailbox Dear Cynthia and Peggy, I just wanted to thank you so, so much for providing the most delicious Kiddush I could imagine for July 6, celebrating my 80th and Arthur Tuttle’s 80th. Our families and friends were amazed at the huge display of food and desserts. Even our cake was decorated in a very special way. Again, all my thanks for your splendid efforts on my behalf. Sincerely, Joyce Mattaway Dear Rabbi Kurland, On behalf of the New City Minyan, we would like to thank you for your most generous gift of the Hertz Chumashim. As a new minyan we are undergoing all of the usual growing pains, including a shortage of supplies. By gifting us the Chumashim, we can now literally all be on the same page during the Torah reading. Wishing you hatzlacha in all that you do. Gratefully, Yehudah and Debra Inga To my NHC family, Thank you for all the kind words, cards and donations in memory of my mother, Harriet Sayer. I know I can always count on you for support in time of need. Adam Sayer To Whom It May Concern, Please accept this as a token of appreciation for the aliyahs offered to my family during a recent Shabbat service — 6/29. We are grateful for the honor and chance to participate in your congregation’s service. Toda Raba, Barry Dear Rabbi Kurland: Thank you for contacting me to express your support for Israel. I agree that the United States should strongly support Israel and continue to oppose one-sided United Nations Security Council Resolutions, such as UN Resolution 2334, which unfairly condemns the building of settlements by Israel I support a peace process through direct negotiations and look forward to the day when the Israeli and Palestinian governments can work together to achieve a two-state solution. I am committed to doing all that I can to encourage a productive and meaningful dialogue between the two parties. Additionally, I will continue to be a staunch supporter of Israel’s safety and will continue to advocate for budgets that fully fund security assistance to Israel, our greatest ally in the Middle East. Again, thank you for contacting me. Please keep in touch with your thoughts and opinions. Sincerely, Charles E. Schumer United States Senator Page 16 NHC Bulletin Elul 5779 — Tishrei 5780 September 2019

Dear Paul Kurland, Thank you for your gift to the Anti-Defamation League, made on May 20, 2019. Together, you and ADL are standing against leaders who try to divide us, haters who incite violence, and movements on both the right and the left that use anti-Semitism, racism and other forms of bigotry to promote their political agendas. We are committed to the mission of making America safer and more secure for everyone. No family or individual should feel like they are at risk because of how they look, how they sound, or how they worship. Your gift will allow ADL to fight back against hate and its consequences. No organization. Jewish or otherwise, is doing more than ADL to uncover and curb the sources of hate, educate people away from misperceptions and prejudice, enact effective remedies, and create new programs to open hearts and minds. In 2019, with your help, ADL will continue to lead the fight against the viral spread of online anti-Semitism and hate, winning support for new approaches by never giving up. We will use ADL’s powerful voice to demand that world leaders — here and abroad — stand up to bigotry and hate. And ADL will respond with strong words and effective actions to any and all incitements to anti-Semitism and hate no matter who it comes from. Thank you again for being an ADL supporter. By standing with ADL today, you are helping us fight hate for good. Sincerely, Jonathan Greenblatt CEO and National Director Dear Rabbi Kurland, Thank you for supporting An Evening with Deborah Lipstadt and thank you for your continued support of the Holocaust Museum & Center for Tolerance and Education, Your donation is so very generous and much appreciated. Now, more than ever, we recognize the need to educate ourselves and our neighbors about the startling rise in antisemitism. From the Squirrel Hill tragedy to rampant hate speech to incidents here in our own backyard, there is much to be concerned about. For this reason, we stand firm in our mission of education and are proud, with your help, to bring Professor Lipstadt to speak about her timely new book, AntIsemitism Here and Now. Each of us has the responsibility to become an ambassador to combat prejudice and hate in all its many forms. In order to do so, we must be well-educated and equipped with the right tools to fight this battle; Professor Lipstadt is the person to help educate and equip us. Your support of this event helps the Museum continue growing its educational department, which is receiving more requests for programming and support than ever before. Local schools and community organizations recognize the need for specialized education on antisernitism, intolerance, diversity, and Holocaust and Genocide studies. They want their students, faculty, and community leaders to understand the importance of these topics in our society today. We are proud to be that resource and to serve so many communities across the region. Without your support at events like these, we would not be able to continue and grow our much needed work in educating all who wish to learn about these critical topics.
