FROM THE RABBI

I know that I am not alone in feeling overwhelmed and anxious about the

world in which we live. It seems that almost every conversation is fraught with either the coming Presidential election, the multiple crises overseas, and the discord here at home. While I believe we must be informed and engaged in the moral issues and demands of our times, we all need some way of letting off a little steam, of lightening the mood as it were, so that we can recharge ourselves for the tasks which lay ahead. That is why I hope you will join me in thanking God for the holiday of Sukkot! With its themes of thanksgiving, welcom-ing, and agricultural focus on fertility, Sukkot brings life, celebration and joy to the forefront. It operates on a totally different holiday cycle than Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur (introspection, repentance and forgiveness) which precede it. In our tradition, Sukkot is last of the Shelosh Regalim, the 3 pilgrimage holidays, with Pesach followed by Shavuot leading the cycle. Following the story progression, we begin with freedom from Egypt, receive the Torah at Mt. Sinai, and conclude with God’s protection (sukkat shalom) as we make our journey to the Promised Land. The Promised Land, however, is not only the tangible land of Israel but also the great hope of the Messianic Era. Our tradition views Sukkot as more that just another holiday but indeed “THE HOLIDAY!” It is suffused with the themes of the ultimate hope and redemption to come, when all nations will come up to Jerusalem (The City of Peace), sit under the great Sukkah (made from the skin of Leviathan) and offer praise and thanksgiving to God together. Indeed, Sukkot is called z’man simchateinu - literally the “time of our rejoicing.” Sukkot reminds us that despite all of the tzurris that tries to bring us down, we believe that in the end God will see us through. We do not give up on ourselves, on God, or the dream of a better world. Instead, we sing Hallel, parade with lulavim and etrogim, dwell in sukkot, and share our bountiful feast with each other and strangers alike. Take a deep breath of crisp autumn air, look up at the stars, take in the vibrant color of the leaves, hang out in the sukkah without a newspaper, tv, or (dare I say it) a cell phone, and talk about all of the blessings we truly have and enjoy. As two talented and wise Jewish poet/songwriters would remind us, “Slow down, you move too fast. Got to make the morning last. Just kicking down the cobblestones. Looking for fun and feeling groovy!” (credit to Paul Simon & Art Garfunkel) What a party we can throw (Schnapps optional)! As Kohelet (Ecclesiastes) reminds us, “A season is set for everything, a time for every experience under heaven…A time for weeping and a time for laughing, A time for wailing and a time from dancing…”(3:1,4) Sukkot is a time for rejoicing, and a time for thanksgiving. A time for welcoming and a time for peace. So as we say the special greeting for Sukkot, “Moadim L’Simcha!” and respond “Chagim u’Zmanim l’Sasson!” (“(May you have) a joyous festival!”/ “Holidays and Times for Celebrating!”) May we remember that Sukkot is the Rx from the Big Doctor Upstairs. God knows we need it. So let the festivities begin! Rabbi Michael Singer

DINNER & Please join us for a 1890's dinner setting

the stage for the big screen showing of HESTER STREET

Our resident film maven, Barbara Platt,

returns to bring greater light to the

relevance of the movie.

Sunday, October 30, 2016 PM

Ticket Price includes Dinner, Movie & Discussion.

$20 per person Bring Family & Friends.

Dinner includes Eastern European specialties like stuffed cabbage and apple strudel.

Hester Street, tells the story of Jewish immigrants who come to the Lower East side in 1896 from Europe, as did so many of our ancestors. So, it is the familiar story of the evolution of cultures, ambition, sex roles and religious traditions. Familiar, yet special for as Wikipedia says "The film is note-worthy for its detailed reconstruction of Jewish immigrant life in New York at the turn of the century—much of the dialogue is delivered in Yiddish with English subtitles—...In addition, Carol Kane's lead character posed a still-provocative synthesis as she dis-covers her own self-assertion on behalf of her right to maintain a traditional identity in an aggressively modern setting." This is a good movie to share with teens who might be less familiar with this aspect of Jewish history.

ELECTION 2016: Certainty vs. Uncertainty Wednesday November 2, 2016 at 7:30 p.m.

At Congregation Brith Sholom, 1190 W. Macada Rd, Bethlehem

Are you excited about the current presidential race between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump? The struggle for control of the United States Senate and House of Representatives will also be addressed. Do you want to know more about what issues will have the greatest impact on determining the outcome of this

heated election? How Pennsylvania, a critical battleground state, will go? Will Dent and Toomey win reelection? If so,

please plan to attend what should be, based on past experience, a very interesting and informative program.

Dr. Chris Borick, Director of the Institute of Public Opinion at Muhlenberg College a political scientist and leading pollster, will share his insights on the heated presidential race and the national political scene. In addition, Dr. Gordon Goldberg, Professor Emeritus of History at Kutztown University, the author of a biography about Meyer London, the New York Socialist Congressman, will discuss the issue of continuity and

discontinuity in American history. He will also conduct a poll of the audience. Similar polls in 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012

and 2014 proved very accurate in predicting the results. So please join us and bring your friends.

The event is sponsored by Congregation Brith Sholom and the Jewish Federation of the Lehigh Valley. It will be held at Congregation Brith Sholom, on Wednesday, November 2, at 7:30 p.m. For additional information call
