AND KRISTALLNACHT תעניות בה''ב

The Monday, Thursday and Monday preceding Rosh Chodesh Kislev are the days observed according to

our minhag as בה''ב, (Taaniyos Sheini Chamishi VeSheini), as days of prayer and fasting during which special

Selichos are said.

This year, the anniversary of Kristallnacht, 16 Marcheshvan, was the Tuesday before Taanis Sheini Kammo.

It was on the 16th of Marcheshvan 5699, eighty-two years ago, that the Nazi furor destroyed almost all

the synagogues in Germany. Countless Sifrei Torah and other Seforim were burned, homes and stores

broken into and looted, and all men between the ages of sixteen and sixty arrested, many assaulted, and

some murdered outright.

On Parashas Vayeiro (20 Marcheshvan) Rav Mantel, in his talk after Mincho, cited the Medrash that Rashi

brings, regarding the differing opinions that Oner, Eshkol (against) and Mamrei (for) expressed in regard

to Avrohom’s obeying הקב''ה and making the Bris Miloh. Although Mamrei was the only positive voice,

urging Avrohom to go through with the Bris, even his approach is not the Jewish one. We do not keep

Mitzvos based on Cheshbonos of how faithfully הקב''ה has rewarded and helped us in the past, but rather,

from an Emuno Peshuto: We are mekabel the Mitzvos, because ה' has thus commanded. Those who live

life and keep the Mitzvos with such a firm Emuno are also those who are steadfastly mekabeil gezeiros,

without questioning the ways of הקב''ה. This was the Gadlus of the Doros past, including those who lived

through the horrors of Churbon Europe, more than eighty years ago.

In our Kehilla, the special Selicho of HaShem Elokai Rabbas Tzeroruni (recited three times on Yom Kippur)

is added on Taanis Sheini Kammo in commemoration of the infamous Kristallnacht and the ensuing

Churban Europe. Memory of these events is also evident in the recitation of the Yehi Rotzon’s after each

time we say Tachanun. This was a Takono of the Rabbonim while still in Germany, and our Kehilla is one

of the few places in which this Takono is still observed, until, as our Minhag-book says, all Tzoros cease,

RAV DOVID FEINSTEIN זצ''ל

Our Kehilla joined Klal Yisroel in mourning the loss of a Sar veGodol, when Rav Dovid Feinstein זצ''ל was

niftar on Erev Shabbos, 19 Marcheshvon/ November 6th. The boys of our Yeshiva joined in, virtually, for

a part of the Levaya, which took place that Sunday.

Rav Feinstein had a close kesher with our Kehilla and Rabbonim, and came yearly to the Heights for the

MTJ Melave Malka (pictures following)

Rav Mantel, in his sermon on )פ' חיי שרה )שבת מברכים referenced Rav Feinstein as an exemplar of אמור מעט

therefor, carried utter clarity and decision. Rav ,פסקים a master of silence, whose words and ,ועשה הרבה

Mantel recalled some of the parting words that Rav Feinstein had spoken with him at a recent MTJ Melave

Malka, telling him, “You have a choshuve Kehilla”, for the same reasons, indicating the quiet and dedicated

work for which our Kehilla is known.

SPECIAL SHIUR

Members enjoyed the first of the season of the Kehilla’s special, legal-holiday Shiurim, on Thursday,

November 26th/ 10 Kisleiv (pictures following). The Shiur was given in Shul, by Rav Mantel, on the topic

of ריבוי בשיעורים.

Due to the current situation, all the Shiurim will take place in Shul, at 10 AM—social distancing and masks

required. The schedule for the next Shiurim is as follows: Friday, December 25th (Asara BeTeiveis), Rabbi

Nosson Lowenthal; Tuesday, January 1st 2021, Rabbi Tzvi Richter; and Monday, February 15th, speaker to

be determined.

DAF YOMI SIYUM ON MASSECHES EIRUVIN

Members of the Kehilla’s Daf Yomi Chabura, along with Rav Mantel and those mispallelim present,

gathered together in Shul on Sunday, November 22nd/ 6 Kisleiv, after the 7:30 Shacharis, to celebrate the

completion of Masseches Eiruvin. Rabbi Elchonon Stern, who was mesayeim, noted it was a Kovod to be

able to hold the Siyum in Shul, in-person. (While much of the Masechta had been learned remotely, a few

weeks in Elul-Tishrei had allowed for some outdoor, in-person learning, in the Sukka behind Shul, and the

schoolyard.) Rabbi Stern urged those who may not have joined up to this point to do so, noting that Daf

Yomi will be learning the end of Masseches Pesochim within the Sheloshim Yom Kodem HaChag of this

upcoming Pesach, אי''ה. The schedule, and any updates, for the Daf Yomi shiurim can be found on the

Kehilla’s website.

FROM THE KOLLEL

The newly-formed Vaad HaKollel, mentioned in the last issue of the KAJN, is comprised of Messrs. Dovid

Braham, Ben Ettlinger, Yisroel Gradman, Moshe Meir Klugman, and Michoel Meir Levi. As mentioned, the

annual Kollel Breakfast is אי''ה scheduled for Memorial Day, May 31st 2021.

OVOS UVONIM

Held in Moller Hall to allow for maximal social distancing, and with masks required, Ovos uVonim has,

despite all the challenges, gotten off to a great start, as it inspires fathers and sons to use at least a

portion of the long, winter Motzoei Shabbosos for learning together. Pictured following, the scene on

Motzoei Shabbos Parashas Toledos, November 21st.

SENIOR SOCIAL CLUBS

On Sunday afternoon, November 8th/ 22 Marcheshvon, the Senior Social Clubs of KAJ hosted a both

interesting and inspiring Zoom lecture by Rabbi Betzalel Tzvi Mandel, Director of Yeshivas Ohaley Yaakov,

Moscow, Russia. Rabbi Mandel’s topic was "One Hundred Years of Dreams.”

NEWS FROM MORIAH SENIOR CENTER

Moriah Senior Center continues to service our clients by hosting a variety of Zoom activities.

Our Wellness programming this past month included a Medicare Update seminar, a presentation

highlighting the nutritional needs of older adults and an information session on age-related hearing loss,

along with our variety of recurring exercise programs.

Our Recreational programming this month offered not only an autumn-inspired Tuneful Tuesday program,

but also a Music of the Earth Show, featuring ancient and indigenous world instruments.

Moriah seniors participated in a Zoom meeting with Crime Prevention Officer Duran from the 34th

Precinct. Topics addressed were scams targeting seniors and how to protect themselves.

Moriah’s virtual museum tours continued to take us outside the confines of our four walls by bringing us

to such fascinating topics as the New York Transit Museum’s presentation on rebuilding the City after

tragedies such as 9/11 and Hurricane Sandy, and the New-York Historical Society’s presentation on the

first Jewish Americans.

Over 70 Moriah seniors received a special meal delivered to their homes, on Thursday, November 26,

to help ease the isolation of being unable to connect with family on legal holidays during the pandemic.

Special treats, gifts and a fall napkin were included. All of this would not be possible without the amazing

work by our deliverers, Eric Freeman, Gavriel Feigenbaum and the volunteers from the HASC Center.

Moriah’s upcoming activities include a LIVE virtual tour of Jerusalem’s Machane Yehuda Shuk, a dental

health presentation, a workshop on Genealogy Basics, the Museum of Tolerance’s Anne Frank Exhibit, a

musical guitar concert and a tour of the New-York Historical Society’s Tiffany Exhibit. Special Chanukah

programming will include a candle-making craft, a virtual Chanukah Party with live music and a video tour

of a very special dreidel collection.

SHAATNEZ

Shaatnez (wool and linen) is often found in garments bought even from a reliable Jewish clothing store.

Therefore, it is forbidden to wear any man’s, woman’s or child’s garment that contains wool or linen until

it has been determined not to contain shaatnez.

For information call:
