Sell Your Hametz 2025
Tuesday, Mar 18th (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.

Exile and the Jews
Wednesday, Mar 26th 1:00p to 2:30p
Wednesdays, 1 - 2:30 PM, Social Hall Ever since Abraham’s famous argument with God, Judaism has been full of debate. Moses and Korah, David and Nathan, Hillel and Shammai, the Vilna Gaon and the Ba’al Shem Tov, Spinoza and the Amsterdam Rabbis . . . the list goes on. No wonder that Judaism cherishes the expression machloket l’shem shamayim, “an argument for the sake of heaven.” Beyond their historical importance, what makes these disputations so compelling is that nearly all of them, regardless of their epochs, are still being argued. The parade of characters spanning three millennia of biblical, rabbinic, and modern disputation reflects the panorama of Jewish history with its monumental political, ethical, and spiritual challenges. This series will examine Jewish responses to exile from the biblical period to our modern day. Considering texts from all genres of Jewish literary creativity, we will explore how the realities and iterpretaions Join as we re-open these timeless debates that lead us to the core of 3,000 years of Jewish conversation. • Justice: Abraham vs. God (October 19) • Holiness and Authority: Moses vs. Korah (November 9) • Inclusion: The Five Daughters vs. the Twelve Tribes (November 30) • Accountability and Morality: David vs. Nathan (December 21) • Resistance: Ben Zakkai vs. the Zealots (January 18) • Law: Hillel vs. Shammai (February 15) • Spirituality: The Vilna Gaon vs. the Baal Shem Tov (March 15) • Boundaries: Spinoza vs. the Amsterdam Rabbis (April 19) • Religious Evolution: Geiger vs. Hirsch vs. Frankel (May 10) • Zionism: Herzl vs. Wise (May 31)
