The ancient synagogue atop the Judean desert fortress of Masada is by no means large. But on the eighth night of Chanukah last week, the rededicated space seemed to expand with revelers as they celebrated the completion of the first Torah scroll to be written on the historic mountaintop in 2,000 years.
After years of shunning the spotlight, Holocaust survivor Leah Bedzowki Johnson picked a forum of Jewish students at the University of Texas as one of the first public audiences to hear her tales of fighting Nazi forces and their collaborators as a member of the famed Bielski Brigade.

The time is 1:35 AM. And I sit here with a renewed sense of passion. It’s not manic enthusiasm, but rather an more introspective, in depth, even auspicious sense of understanding. There is lust, and then there’s love. Lust is fleeting. It comes as a flood of impulse and emotion, but soon withers into oblivion, or worse, mediocrity. No. What I am experiencing in this moment is more than just a fleeting passion. It’s a feeling of intimidation and admiration mixed with immense pride and responsibility. A connection to something that surpasses any pain, overpowers any objection, which disables any doubt. It’s a love for more than financial gain, physical pleasure, or spiritual bliss. It’s a love… for life. True life.

Millions of people watched the appearance of Mendi and Heidi on The Peoples Court over last few weeks, both on national TV and on the internet. The ‘trial’ ended with Judge Marilyn Milian accusing the Jewish couple of lying, embarrassing the two, and causing a Chillul Hashem of “epic proportions” as we called it. And most concluded that the Jewish couple indeed attempted to defraud the cleaners, but the story is not as straightforward as it seemed.
Over a half dozen legislators, including Council Members David G. Greenfield, Lew Fidler, Stephen Levin, Brad Lander, Jumaane Williams and Mark Weprin and New York City Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, joined Jewish community leaders from across the five boroughs to denounce the elimination of the Administration for Children’s Services’ Priority 7 Voucher Program and to call for its immediate restoration. Joining the group were representatives of Council Member Sara Gonzalez, State Senator Kevin Parker and Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer.

Afghanistan is a country torn by war; yet it’s a vast land filled with natural beauty that has been untouched by modern development. In a mountainous area of Afghanistan, an area that is fraught with danger on every corner, it’s also a strong hold for the insurgency and Taliban. It’s on these rocky and dangerous hills that we find a lonely Jewish captain who is also an Intel officer and is serving with his unit in protecting the local roads that are crucial to the supply route for the US armed forces stationed in Afghanistan.
This story takes place during the holiday of Pesach; and in honor of the holiday Chaplain Colonel Rabbi Ira Kronenberg was stationed in Bagram Airbase to conduct and host Jewish activities, during the intermediate days Rabbi Kronenberg gets a request to go visit a Jewish soldier serving in the mountainous region, he gladly agrees.
Since Rosh Chodesh Teves fell out during Chanukah and since there was no school on the closest Sunday to Rosh Chodesh, the PTA Sunday Rosh Chodesh Program for the boys Cheder took place on Tuesday and Wednesday, the sixth and seventh days of Chanukah.
“There are two awesome aspects to Chabad’s achievements that this ‘outsider’ can affirm. One is inside of Judaism, and one is outside.”
