3 Life-long Learning at Congregation Beth Ohr! Shortly before the onset of the High Holidays I conducted a study workshop for our congregation titled "Six Strategies for Surviving the Holidays." I was greatly pleased not only by the caliber of our participants but also by the number of students who chose to attend. Our workshop was comprised of fifteen adult students! Their attendance was even more striking since the class was offered on a Wednesday at eleven o'clock in the morning. Aside from studying some of the more complicated Biblical texts for Yom Tov, I also provided our students with the titles of a number of books appropriate for the holidays. I wanted to expand on this idea so I am offering a bibliography of sorts in this article that will suggest a number of wonderful books, most available in paperback and e-print form that could deeply enhance and supplement the knowledge of any curious student of Judaism. If an individual were to read just a couple of these books this fall he/ she could seriously add to his/her basic level of knowledge of Judaism. Here is the list of books and I sincerely hope that each one of you will give serious consideration to tackling at least one or two of them this fall. I believe that it will not only deepen your understanding of Judaism but also enable you to take much more enjoyment in the observance of our rich, formidable and illustrious heritage. Below are my choices listed in no specific order by title and author. Should you have difficulty finding any one of these selections please let me know so that I might be of assistance. Have a wonderful year. Rabbi Joel S Mishkin The Beginning of Desire by Avivah Gottlieb Zornberg The Murmuring Deep by Avivah Gottlieb Zornberg Why Faith Matters by Rabbi David Wolpe Conscience: The Duty to Obey and Disobey by Rabbi Harold Schulweiss The Story of the Jews: Finding the Words 1000BC to 1492AD by Simon Schama My Promised Land: The Triumph and Tragedy of Israel by Ari Shavit Sacred Attunement: A Jewish Theology God In Search of Man by Abraham Joshua Heschel The Sabbath by Abraham Joshua Heschel 3

Things are going on Good things. Join with us! Don t miss out! Lunch tips about water damage The R.O.M.E.O. Friday lunch group frequently comes up with some interesting and helpful tips.. Here are a few from Daniel Grynberg about protecting against home water damage. Dan said the largest amount of insurance claims are water damage, some of which can be avoided. 1. When going on a vacation or leaving your home for an extended period, turn off the water into the house. This will prevent against damage from freezing, or a developing leak. 2. Before the start of winter turn off the faucets to the outside of your house. Afterwards, open the faucets to drain any water remaining in the pipes. 3. Many washing machines have rubber supply hoses for the water entering the machine. These tend to develop leaks. Replace them with stainless steel hoses. 4. Hot water heaters will break. They have a limited life. Have them checked out, or replaced beforehand.
