SUMMARY:Tishah B'Av
DESCRIPTION:Tishah B’Av\, observed on the 9th (tishah) of the Hebrew month of Av\, is a day of mourning the destruction of both ancient Temples in Jerusalem. Liberal Judaism never has assigned a central religious role to the ancient Temple\, so mourning the destruction of the Temple may not be particularly meaningful to liberal Jews. In modern times\, many Jews understand Tishah B’Av as a day to remember many tragedies that have befallen the Jewish people throughout history\, and to reflect on the suffering that still occurs in our world. \nCustomarily\, Tishah B’Av is a time set aside for fasting and mourning. As on Yom Kippur\, the fast extends from sundown until the following sundown. In the synagogue\, the Book of Eichah (Lamentations) is chanted\, as are kinot\, which are dirges written during the Middle Ages. Sitting on low stools\, a custom associated with mourning the dead\, Jews read sections of the books of Jeremiah and Job\, as well as passages from the Bible and the Talmud that deal with the Temples’ destructions in 586 B.C.E. and 70 C.E. \nSome Jewish communities begin a period of semi-mourning three weeks before Tishah B’Av\, on the 17th of the Hebrew month of Tammuz. It was supposedly on this day in 586 B.C.E. that the Babylonians first made an incursion into the Temple in Jerusalem. Beginning on this date\, Jews who observe this custom refrain from holding weddings and festive celebrations or cutting their hair. The mourning intensifies on the first of Av\, with no meat or wine consumed\, no new clothing purchased\, and no shaving allowed. On the evening before Tishah B’Av\, a 24-hour fast begins\, and in synagogue services\, the Book of Lamentations is chanted. When Tishah B’Av falls on Shabbat\, its observance begins after Shabbat ends and extends into the next day. \nFor most liberal Jews\, Tishah B’Av has faded in importance as a ritual observance\, as the rebuilding of a central Temple in Jerusalem has lost its priority and significance in modern times. Although historians dispute the fact that both Temples were destroyed on this day\, Tishah B’Av has become a symbol of Jewish suffering and loss. Over the centuries\, other tragic events have come to be commemorated on this day\, including the brutal massacres of the Crusades\, the Jewish expulsion from Spain\, and the Holocaust.

Each element makes up and threads together one Jewish story. How does one tell this story\, and what are some of the behind-the-scenes issues in creating ANU? We will virtually tour the museum with Israeli tour guide Shari Robins and understand how it can be seen through the lenses of different Jewish communities and topics. Being the largest Jewish museum globally\, we will highlight a few of its displays and hopefully leave with some questions regarding Jewish identity\, perhaps in relation to your own.\n\nPrograms like this are available to us through our membership in Women of Reform Judaism North America\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Shavuot
DESCRIPTION:The festival of Shavuot celebrates the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai and encourages us to embrace the Torah’s teachings and be inspired by the wisdom Jewish tradition has to offer. \nShavuot is the Hebrew word for “weeks\,” and the holiday occurs seven weeks after Passover. Shavuot\, like many other Jewish holidays\, began as an ancient agricultural festival that marked the end of the spring barley harvest and the beginning of the summer wheat harvest. In ancient times\, Shavuot was a pilgrimage festival during which Israelites brought crop offerings to the Temple in Jerusalem. Today\, it is a celebration of Torah\, education\, and the choice to participate actively in Jewish life.

SUMMARY:Windows to Israel Through Poetry
DESCRIPTION:The Israel Education Committee is hosting a program with renowned Israeli educator\, Rachel Korazim\, teaching “The Other as a Mirror”. This session combines Israeli literary works of both Jews and Arabs. Rachel will explore images of Arabs in Jewish Israeli literature and juxtapose them with Arab Israeli literary works depicting a society in which they feel often disenfranchised. Poems of Yehuda Amichai and Agi Mishol will offer conflicting images of friend and foe.\n\n\nhttps://urj.zoom.us/…/tZwvf-qoqDwqE9FRm7TtRGbmafE1xLdNx9f-

SUMMARY:Lag BaOmer
DESCRIPTION:Lag BaOmer is a minor\, festive holiday that falls on the 33rd day of the seven-week period between Passover and Shavuot\, a period of time is known as the Omer. (The numerical value of the Hebrew letter lamed is 30\, and the value of gimel is three; lamed and gimel together are pronounced “lahg.”) This holiday gives us a break from the semi-mourning restrictions (no parties or events with music\, no weddings\, no haircuts) that are customarily in place for some Jewish communities during the Omer. \nThe Omer has both agricultural and spiritual significance: it marks both the spring cycle of planting and harvest\, and the Israelites’ journey out of slavery in Egypt (Passover) and toward receiving the Torah at Mount Sinai (Shavuot). An omer (“sheaf”) is an ancient Hebrew measure of grain. Biblical law forbade any use of the new barley crop until after an omer was brought as an offering to the Temple in Jerusalem. The Book of Leviticus (23:15-16) also commanded: “And from the day on which you bring the offering…you shall count off seven weeks. They must be complete.” This commandment led to the practice of the S’firat HaOmer\, or the 49 days of the “Counting of the Omer\,” which begins on the second day of Passover and ends with the celebration of Shavuot on the 50th day. Lag BaOmer commemorates a variety of historical events\, including the end of a plague that killed many students of Rabbi Akiva (c. 50-135 C.E.)\, the yahrzeit of 2nd-century mystical scholar Shimon bar Yochai\, and a Jewish military victory over Roman forces in 66 C.E. In remembrance of these events\, some people celebrate with picnics and bonfires. Many couples in Israel choose to get married on Lag BaOmer\, and many people also choose to wait until that day to get a haircut or beard trim.

SUMMARY:Yom HaZikaron & Yom HaAtzmaut
DESCRIPTION:Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948\, four new holidays have been added to the Jewish calendar – Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day)\, Yom HaZikaron (Memorial Day)\, Yom HaAtzmaut (Independence Day)\, and Yom Y’rushalayim (Jerusalem Day\, which celebrates the reunification of the city in 1967). In Israel\, these days are observed as national holidays; around the world\, they are observed in various ways by Jewish communities. \nThe Israeli Knesset (parliament) established the day that precedes Yom HaAtzmaut as Yom HaZikaron\, a day to memorialize soldiers who lost their lives fighting in the War of Independence and subsequent battles\, as well as a day to remember civilian victims of terrorism. The official State name given to the day is Yom HaZikaron LeChalalei Maarachot Yisrael ul’Nifg’ei Peulot HaEivah (יוֹם הזִּכָּרוֹן לַחֲלָלֵי מַעֲרָכוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל וּלְנִפְגְעֵי פְּעוּלוֹת הָאֵיבָה) which means “Memorial Day for the Fallen Soldiers of Israel and Victims of Terrorism” and was enacted into law in 1963. \nYom HaAtzmaut marks the anniversary of the establishment of the modern state of Israel. It is observed on or near the 5th of the Hebrew month of Iyar on the Jewish calendar\, which usually falls in April.

SUMMARY:Yom HaShoah
DESCRIPTION:Yom HaShoah\, also known as Holocaust Remembrance Day\, occurs on the 27th of the Hebrew month of Nisan. Shoah\, which means “catastrophe” or “utter destruction” in Hebrew\, refers to the atrocities that were committed against the Jewish people during World War II. This is a memorial day for those who died in the Shoah. The Shoah is also known as the Holocaust\, from a Greek word meaning “sacrifice by fire.” \nThe Holocaust was the largest manifestation of antisemitism in recent history. Yom HaShoah reminds us of the horrors that Jews and other persecuted groups faced: forced labor\, starvation\, humiliation\, and torture\, which often resulted in death. It was a systematic effort to wipe out an entire population from the face of the earth. \nMany commemorate Yom HaShoah by lighting yellow candles to keep alive the memories of the victims. Most synagogues and Jewish communities gather together to mark the day through worship\, music and the stories from survivors.

SUMMARY:Passover
DESCRIPTION:Passover (Pesach in Hebrew) is a major Jewish spring festival celebrating freedom and family as we remember the Exodus from Egypt more than 3\,000 years ago. The main observances of this holiday center around a special home service called the seder\, which includes a festive meal\, the prohibition on eating chametz\, and the eating of matzah. \nOn the 15th day of Nisan in the Hebrew calendar\, Jews gather with family and friends in the evening to read from a book called the Haggadah\, meaning “telling\,” which contains the order of prayers\, rituals\, readings\, and songs for the Passover seder. The Haggadah helps us retell the events of the Exodus\, so that each generation may learn and remember this story that is so central to Jewish life and history. \nPassover is celebrated for either seven or eight days\, depending on family and communal custom. In Israel and for most Reform Jews around the world\, Passover is seven days\, but for many other Jews\, it is eight days. \n  \n  \nBe sure to check out Judaic Treasures’ assortment of holiday items at https://www.judaictreasures.com/categories/holidays/.
