Sh’vorim-t’rua
1) In the main shofar blowing – before musaf – in the sequence of t’keeya-sh’vorim-t’rua-t’keeya, the sh’vorim-t’rua should be blown in a single breath. The same applies when one blows to enable someone else to fulfill the mitzva (such as at home for family members, or on mivtza’im).However the shofar which is blown by mussaf is done with a breath in between the sh’vorim-t’rua.

Presidential Message: Rosh Hashanah, 5769

I send greetings to those celebrating Rosh Hashanah.

On this occasion of spiritual reflection, people of the Jewish faith in our country and around the world recognize the blessings from the Almighty as they commemorate the anniversary of the creation of the world. During this holy time, men and women take time to remember the past, contemplate the sweetness of the new year, and look forward to a promising future.

This special occasion is also an opportunity to celebrate the history of the Jewish people and the values that bind us all together.

Laura and I send our best wishes for a meaningful Rosh Hashanah and L’shanah tovah.

GEORGE W. BUSH

The rabbis issued a series of regulations to prevent this problem. (see letter in the extended article). As a result, a giant mechitza was erected outside the entrance to the women’s section in 770 on Kingston Ave.

Elul Zman at YNS Tzfas

TZFAS, Israel [CHI[] — What an amazing Elul zman it has been with bochurim filling the zal with the sounds of Nigleh and Chassidus. A very exciting event took place at the Chai Elul farbrengen when Hatomim Shneur Zalman Yanover made a Siyum Mesechta. The farbrengen went into the wee hours of the night with many stories told over of what Chassidus added to the world and the lessons that should be learnt of what Chassidus adds into our own personal lives.
