Another way to think of creation is the vast amounts, incalculable, really, of creation that is ongoing in all times and in all places. This is always realized here in southern Vermont at this time of year where after a winter that was cold and snow laden, the natural world begins to reveal itself subtly as it bursts, to use the metaphor, into full flower. A sense of life renewed brightens our being. Just outside the window of my study at ICM is a white lilac bush that is a privilege for me to stare at throughout the winter into the spring. In winter there are small buds, creation in potential, waiting for Screening the Barefoot Contessa n Wednesday, May 11, at 7:00 pm, O there will be a screening of the interview of Ina Garten (the ʺBarefoot Contessaʺ) by Anna Quindlen, at Israel Congregation. This interview originally took place on March 23, 2011, as part of the highly respected 92nd Street Y s lecture series in New York City. Ina Rosenberg Garten, host of the Food Network s very popular Barefoot Contessa program, is known for her cooking excellence and home entertaining savvy. warmer weather. In April the buds are turning green and beginning to emerge. In May the bush will go into full flower and then have green leaves through the rest of the summer season. Why do I notice? Because to recognize creation and the ongoing work of creation is to be a person for whom radical amazement is not an abstract idea, but a living reality. All around us, from what we see and what is unseen, creation continues in a relentless ongoing pattern that makes the world a place that sustains our being. Our ancestors could not even grasp the enormity of creation in the world and perhaps that holds true for us today. So slow down and observe what is going on. Whether your sense of radical amazement comes from the creation stories in the Torah or from observing nature, make sure you note the creative forces ongoing around you, observing the exquisiteness of renewal in all of its forms. Anna Quindlen is the author of numerous best selling works of fiction and non fiction and her columns in the New York Times and Newsweek have earned her a Pulitzer Prize, journalism s most prestigious award. In the interview, America s favorite hostess talks about her successful ventures in television, publishing and retail, as well as her life as wife and mother. The interview is illuminating, informative and totally entertaining. Following the screening, there will be a delicious dessert social hour, featuring, of course, Barefoot Contessa recipes. Price of admission is $15 per person; $25 per couple. To register, please call Karen at or register online at

3 27 Nissan 27 Iyar 5771/May 2011 President s Column T here is no question that events in the Middle East over the past several months have captivated our attention. This February, the suicide of a street vendor in Tunisia led to a revolt that ousted the country s autocratic ruler. Thousands of Egyptians protested against the oppressive 30 year plus rule of Hosni Mubarak which eventually drove him from office and overthrew the government. Currently there is open revolt against Colonel Muammar el Quaddafi s government in Libya. Anti government demonstrations are also currently taking place in Iran, Jordan, Iraq, Algeria, Bahrain, and Yemen. Middle East analyst, author, and scholar Aaron David Miller sees this wave of turmoil and unrest sweeping across North Africa and the Middle East as the Arab world tearing down its own Berlin Wall. If his analogy holds true, we may see as profound a geopolitical transformation as the world witnessed two decades ago. From 1989 to 1992, peaceful transfers of power to non Communist governments occurred in Poland, East Germany (reunification of East Germany with West Germany), Czechoslovakia (now Czech Republic and Slovakia), Bulgaria, and Albania. A violent transfer of power to a non Communist government took place in Romania. Also, during the breakup of the Soviet Union, war raged in Yugoslavia. The Warsaw Pact fell apart and the Chinese democracy movement was violently suppressed. During these years there were changes in many other countries resulting in the end of the Cold War. In South Africa, Nelson Mandela was released from prison in 1990 and led his party in the negotiations which created a multi racial democracy in In Burma, opposition leader Aung San Sun Kyi was detained under house arrest before the 1989 elections in which her party won majorities in both the national votes and the seats in Parliament. She remained under house arrest for almost fifteen of the next twenty one years, until her release in November As Jews, we are familiar with both oppression and freedom. At our Passover seders it is our duty to retell the story of our exodus from Egypt. Even if there are those among us who are wise and well learned in the Torah, the more we tell of our departure from Egypt, the more we learn about our history and heritage. We Page 3 Religious School F ollowing our week off for Spring Break, our Religious School celebrated Passover in style with our Chocolate Seder! Rabbi Novak, Yuval, and Alison led a fun and sugar filled seder with all of our students. Highlights included a trivia game, drinking chocolate milk instead of wine, red jelly beans to represent the plague of ʺdamʺ (blood), and eating chocolate covered matzoh instead of regular matzoh. During the months of May and June, three of our Kitah Bet students will become Bar and Bat Mitzvah, so these students will continue their hard work and preparation for the rest of the school year. The Kitah Alef students will continue to strengthen their Hebrew reading skills and all the students will continue praying together during their weekly tefilah services. During the last day of school, May 12, all of the students will work together on a community service project while enjoying the beautiful weather and celebrating a wonderful year of learning and growing together! Have a wonderful summer, Rabbi Rose cannot help but feel as if we were personally freed from slavery, which helps us appreciate what we have today. Some of us have suffered under political oppression while others among us have fought in wars to defend freedom. However, most of us enjoy the blessings of freedom most of the days in our lives. We are fortunate to be citizens of the United States. We can only hope that the overthrow of oppression and the spread of freedom in the Middle East and North Africa lead to a more peaceful world. I hope you had a happy and joyous Passover. John Sobel

5 27 Nissan 27 Iyar 5771/May 2011 Four Core Questions About Judaism udaism is based on questioning. In fact, the Talmud J begins with a question! We are not a people to accept answers and just ʺgo with it.ʺ The rabbis in the Talmud understood this, which is why they up ended several dicta of the Torah, actually turning them on their head. Most of us are not familiar with this aspect of our Jewish inheritance. I invite you to join me in May on Wednesday evenings at 7 pm at ICM (6 pm on May 11) for four vibrant one hour sessions where we will struggle together with four questions: ~ May 4: Do I have to believe in God to be Jewish? ~ May 11 at 6 pm: Is there life after death? ~ May 18: If there is a God, why is there so much suffering in the world? ~ May 25: What does it mean to be a ʺgood Jewʺ and how good do I have to be? Rabbi Novak B nai Barak Hiking Season Begins T he weather is getting nicer and it is time to start thinking about hiking. We will start off the Bʹnai Barak hiking season with the traditional Pawlet Mountain Road hike from the Reismanʹs house in Rupert to the Pawlet Library. Following the hike will be the traditional lunch at the Reismanʹs. The hike is for men only but the lunch is for hikers plus significant others. Please save the date for Sunday June 5. More details will be available soon. Stan Reisman Page 5 Shavuot Is Just Around the Corner havuot is one of the three major festival holidays in the Torah (the others are Pesach and S Sukkot). In the Jewish tradition, Shavuot celebrates the journey from Egypt to freedom, from slavery to Torah. Its literal name means ʺweeksʺ because it is seven weeks from the beginning of Pesach and the agricultural season in Israel. Seven weeks after the growing season began came the first wheat harvest. Unlike Pesach and Sukkot, which are both a week long and come at the beginning and end of the agricultural season, respectively, Shavuot is a one day holiday, coming as it does at the height of the growing season. It s no time to take a week off (just ask any of our local farmers here in Vermont). In addition to its agricultural origins, Shavuot was infused by the rabbis of yore who created ʺRabbinic Judaismʺ (which is what we practice) with the religious significance of receiving the Torah at Mount Sinai given the name ʺzʹman Torateinu ʺ the time of our Torah. In recognition of this, Jews celebrate Shavuot by studying Torah. Our Torah study in observance of Shavuot on June 7 at 7:30 pm will give us the opportunity to learn together and to share ideas. Shavuot observance continues with a service on June 8 at 9:30 am. Save the Date July 16, 2011 Progressive Dinner A wonderful evening of food, festivities & friendship.
