This past Motzaei Shabbos, Anash and Bochurim of the Melbourne Jewish Community gathered for a Melave Malka at the Rabbinical College of Australia and New Zealand (Yeshivah Gedolah), to celebrate the completion of Maseches Kesubos.

When Robert A. Rockaway, a recognized authority on Jewish-American history, decided to chronicle the story of the Jewish mob, he sought out Jewish old-timers in order to gather information on this less than reputable element.
Rockaway even interviewed his own mother, a native of Detroit, Michigan, who personally knew some friends and family members of the nefarious subjects of his research.

The Rebbe says:
1. The first verses of this week’s Torah portion simply reads, “See! I am giving to you today a blessing and a curse… The blessing is being given on the basis that you will listen to the commandments of G-d, your G-d…And the curse will come if you do not listen to the commandments of G-d, your G-d…”.
The Targum Onkelos translates the Hebrew word “Kllalah” in these first few verses and in the future verses as “curse”. The Targum Yonasan however translates the Hebrew word “Kllalah” in these first few verse as “its substitute”, so that the verse reads, “See! I am giving to you today a blessing and its substitute”; whereas in the future verses in this Torah portion the Targum Yonasan changes his interpretation and interprets the Hebrew word “Kllalah” as “curse” just like the Targum Onkelos always does.
