Should a Torontonian in Israel go hear the Israeli parshah read? For at least two reasons, a non-israeli should still hear the local parshah: According to most authorities, the mitzvah of Keriat hatorah is communal, and therefore the correct parshah is determined based on the community; The mitzvah of Keriat hatorah may not be specific to a particular parshah; many rule that it may be fulfilled with any parshah. The travelling Torontonian faces a separate problem of missing a parshah when travelling to Israel. The individual is not required to arrange a minyan to hear the missing parshah, but it would be good to do so.

Second Aliyah: (13:24) Why is a lesion that forms as a result of the trauma of a burn deemed tzara as isn t is clear that it came from an external factor? Third Aliyah: (13:45) Why is the Metzora treated like a sinner in such a public way, when there are sinners of far greater sins who aren t given the same treatment? Fourth Aliyah: (14:2) Why don t the laws of the purification of a Metzora listed previously, right after the laws of skin tzara as shouldn t the laws of clothing tzara as have been listed after the laws of purification? Fifth Aliyah: (14:25) Why is sacrificial blood placed on the Metzora s thumb and big toe? Sixth Aliyah: If a person finds mold in his house today, should he view it as a punishment from Hashem, just like Tzara as of the house? Seventh Aliyah: Why do the laws of Tzara as divide between the tum ah of childbirth and the tum ah of other bodily discharges?

Because whether we feel it or not, all of us are intrinsically connected like parts of one organism. That is why love entails working consciously to get in touch with that inherent connection by feeling and expressing kindness and acceptance toward others. When you meet a person whom you d like to connect with think about your bond with that person- how he or she complements you, no differently than the eyes complementing ears. With that in mind, think of healthy ways to express your loving-kindness to that person and then act on it. (from How to Connect: 7 Steps, exodus magazine.org) DINNER IN HONOUR OF RABBI DAVID LAU - CHIEF RABBI OF ISRAEL A special Friday night dinner will be held on Friday, May 4 at BAYT. Cost is $50/person. Please register at bayt.ca Registration deadline Monday, April 30
