3 2 Sermon Spark Behar Sermon Spark: Behar The Jewish tradition has profound things to say about environmentalism and sustainability. Those ancient ideas and values are being given new life and expression in today's State of Israel. Framing Consciousness about the environment and our responsibility to it seems to be a recent phenomenon. However, this kind of consciousness is very ancient, and very Jewish. One of the reasons for founding the State of Israel was to bring this ancient wisdom to fruition. Key Text: Leviticus 25:1-18 כה,בדּ בּ ר א ל-בּ נ י י שׂ ר א ל, ו אָמ ר תּ א ל ה ם, כּ י ת ב אוּ א ל-ה אָר ץ, א שׁ ר א נ י נ ת ן ל כ ם- -ו שׁ ב ת ה ה אָר ץ, שׁ בּ ת ל יהו ה. כה,גשׁ שׁ שׁ נ ים תּ ז ר ע שׂ ד ך, ו שׁ שׁ שׁ נ ים תּ ז מ ר כּ ר מ ך ; ו אָס פ תּ כה,ד וּב שּׁ נ ה ה שּׁ ב יע ת, שׁ בּ ת שׁ בּ תוֹן י ה י ה ל אָר ץ--שׁ בּ ת, ל יהו ה: ו כ ר מ ך ל א ת ז מ ר. כה,הא ת ס פ יח ק צ יר ך ל א ת ק צוֹר, ו א ת-ע נּ ב י נ ז יר ך ל א ת ב צ ר: ל אָר ץ. כה,ו וה י ת ה שׁ בּ ת ה אָר ץ ל כ ם, ל אָכ ל ה--ל ך, וּל ע ב דּ ך ו ל א מ ת ך ; ה גּ ר ים, ע מּ ך. כה,ז ו ל ב ה מ תּ ך--ו ל ח יּ ה, א שׁ ר בּ אַר צ ך : תּ ה י ה כ ל-תּ בוּאָת הּ, ל א כ ל. כה,ח ו ס פ ר תּ ל ך, שׁ ב ע שׁ בּ ת ת שׁ נ ים--שׁ ב ע שׁ נ ים, שׁ ב ע פּ ע מ ים; שׁ בּ ת ת ה שּׁ נ ים, תּ שׁ ע ו אַר בּ ע ים, שׁ נ ה., א ת-תּ בוּאָת הּ. שׂ ד ך ל א ת ז ר ע, שׁ נ ת שׁ בּ תוֹן, י ה י ה ו ל שׂ כ יר ך, וּל תוֹשׁ ב ך, {ס { ו ה יוּ ל ך, י מ י שׁ ב ע כה,ט ו ה ע ב ר תּ שׁוֹפ ר תּ רוּע ה, בּ ח ד שׁ ה שּׁ ב ע י, בּ ע שׂוֹר, ל ח ד שׁ; בּ יוֹם, ה כּ פּ ר ים, תּ ע ב ירוּ שׁוֹפ ר, בּ כ ל-אַר צ כ ם. כה,י ו ק דּ שׁ תּ ם, א ת שׁ נ ת ה ח מ שּׁ ים שׁ נ ה, וּק ר את ם דּ רוֹר בּ אָר ץ, ל כ ל-י שׁ ב יה ; יוֹב ל ה וא, תּ ה י ה ל כ ם, ו שׁ ב תּ ם א ישׁ א ל-א ח זּ תוֹ, ו א ישׁ א ל-מ שׁ פּ ח תּוֹ תּ שׁ בוּ. כה,יא יוֹב ל ה וא, שׁ נ ת ה ח מ שּׁ ים שׁ נ ה--תּ ה י ה ל כ ם; ל א ת ז ר עוּ--ו ל א ת ק צ רוּ א ת- ס פ יח יה, ו ל א ת ב צ רוּ א ת-נ ז ר יה.

5 4 Sermon Spark Behar another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am the LORD your God. 18 Wherefore ye shall do My statutes, and keep Mine ordinances and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety. Supporting Texts Devarim 11:10: For the Land to which you come, to possess it it is not like the land of Egypt that you left, where you would plant your seed and water it on foot like a vegetable garden. But the Land to which you cross over to possess it, is a Land of hills and valleys, from the rain of heaven will it drink water, a Land that Hashem, your G-d, seeks out; the eyes of Hashem, your G-d are always upon it, from the beginning of the year to year s end. Maimonides, Mishneh Torah, Laws of Kings, 6 Laws 8-10: It is forbidden to cut down fruit bearing trees outside a besieged city, nor may a water channel be deflected from them so they wither. The penalty is imposed not only during a siege but rather anyone who cuts down a fruit bearing tree in a destructive manner is flogged...and not only trees, but anyone who smashes household goods, tears clothing, demolishes a building, stops a spring, or wastes articles of food in a destructive manner, is in violation of the command you shall not destroy." Sefer HaChinuch, Parshat Shoftim, Mitzvah 529: The root of the Mitzvah (Bal Tashchit) is well known that it is to teach our souls to love the Good and the Greater Value and to cling to it. Therefore we should attach ourselves to the good and distance ourselves from anything that is bad and any type of destruction. This is the path for Hasidim (Righteous People) and People of Good Deeds who love Peace and are happy with the goodness of the Creation and draw themselves close to Torah. They do not ever waste anything, even a kernel of mustard. They should fashion themselves in such a way that any wastefulness or destruction that they see if they are able to (save) prevent it they should save it from all forms of destructiveness with all their energy.
6 5 Sermon Spark Behar Modern Application to Israel The relationship between the Jewish People and the earth is central to the Jewish tradition. The creation story in Genesis highlights our responsibility to take care of the earth, most of our holidays have strong agricultural connections, and there is a wealth of Jewish law and narrative about caring for the environment. Israel has always been praised by Jews for its natural beauty and resources. Here are two examples of Jewish organizations applying these ancient values in modern day Israel. Leket Israel was founded in 2003 to rescue excess, nutritious food that would have otherwise been destroyed and redirected to people in need. They have become Israel's umbrella organization for donations of surplus food, with a committed lineup of volunteers and staff members providing more than 110 tons of food per week to over 230 soup kitchens, homeless shelters, senior citizen centers and other social service organizations around Israel. In 1997, Green Course was founded by a group of students that looked around and thought that there wasn't a significant environmental movement in Israel. They started under the auspices of the SPNI (Society for Preservation of Nature in Israel) by opening Green Course chapters on 4 campuses, and within a few years there were chapters across the country. It went on to become the leading platform for volunteering for the environment in Israel.
