MarMarch 25 , 2024Sell Your Hametz 2024
Monday, Mar 25th (All day)
Since ownership of hametz (bread and other leavened products) is not allowed during Pesah, ideally all hametz in one's possession would be given away or destroyed before the holiday begins. Since this often represents a financial hardship, the practice arose for people to store away their hametz before Pesah and arrange to sell it for the duration of the holiday. By filling out the form below, you are appointing Rabbi Goldberg to arrange the sale on your behalf. The hametz should be stored in such a way that we are sure not to use it during the holiday (by, for example, putting it in a sealed cabinet) and its actual ownership is transferred to a non-Jew until the holiday ends. Donation: It is customary when selling hametz to make a donation to help Jews in need to celebrate Passover. This year we are supporting the Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty. 2024 Rabbinical Assembly Pesah Guide [link to : https://www.rabbinicalassembly.org/jewish-law/holidays/pesah/pesah-prep-and-resources/5784-2024 ] By clicking on the submit button below, I/we hereby authorize Rabbi Ben Goldberg to act as my/our agent in the sale of all hametz that may be in my/our possession, knowingly or unknowingly, wherever it may be - whether at home, at a place of business, or elsewhere - and to lease all places wherein hametz owned may be found in accordance with the requirements of Jewish law. All hametz in my/our possession that will not be consumed by the latest time for eating hametz on Monday, April 22, 2024 (approximately 10:00am in our area) will be stored and sealed by the latest time for burning hametz on Monday, April 22 (approximately 11:30am in our area) and will remain stored away for the duration of Pesah. This transaction will be in effect for the duration of Pesah, which this year begins with sundown of Monday, April 22, 2024 and runs through nightfall on Tuesday, April 30, 2024 (approximately 8:40pm). PLEASE STATE IN "NOTES" ALL ADDRESSES WHERE THE HAMETZ IS LOCATED AND ALSO STATE ANY ADDITIONAL MEMBERS OF YOUR HOUSEHOLD WHOSE HAMETZ IS BEING SOLD. This form is due at 12 noon on Friday, April 19. -

AprApril 17 , 2024Thinking About God
Wednesday, Apr 17th 1:00p to 2:30p
Thinking About God Who—or what—is God? Is God like a person? Does God have a gender? Does God have a special relationship with the Jewish people? Does God intervene in our lives, as individuals and as a nation? Is God good—and, if yes, why does evil persist in the world? In investigating how Jewish thinkers have approached these and other questions over thousands of years, we will encounter many of the diverse, contradictory, and sophisticated ways to think about God in Jewish tradition. The course is based on a book of the same name by Rabbi Kari H. Tuling. While you are encouraged to come to as much of the series as possible, each session will stand on its own. All texts will be provided in English. Wednesdays, 1:00-2:30pm KTI Social Hall October 11 and 18: What Does it Mean to Say that God Created the World? November 1 and 15: How Does Evil Exist in a World with a Good God? November 29 and December 13: Is God Like a Person? January 3 and 17: Does God Have a Gender? January 31 and February 14: What Does it Mean to Declare God is One? February 28 and March 13: Does God Intervene in Our Lives? March 20 and April 10: Does God Intervene in History?
