Pushka Campaign This year we are making a few small

changes to the pushka campaign. For those who have joined the shul in the past two years and may not be aware of exactly how the campaign works, here is a little refresher.

Both current and new campaigners who want to join the campaign should simply sign up by emailing shlomhuva@aol.com. The pushka challenge is to put whatever amount of money one is able into a pushka every day or as often as possible. The recommended amount is only 36 cents a day.

When your pushka is full, please empty it into a ziplock bag marked with your name, and drop it into our locked mailbox at 3310

W. Strathmore Avenue. If it is difficult for you to drop it off, please contact Shlomo and Ahuva Goldberger at 410-358-4456 to arrange a pickup. If you need a shul pushka, you may take one from the shul window sill, and they will be replenished as needed.

It is a small amount of money and is easy to do. Over the past two years, Baruch HaShem, the shul has been able to raise over $21,000.

We also request that even if you have participated in the campaign in previous years, please sign up again because the current list is not up-to-date. Additionally, each week, we will print the names of the participants who have turned in a pushka that week.

Thank you to all who have participated. We look forward to another successful year of raising $10,000 of pushka money for our shul.

Wishing you all Bracha V’Hatzlacha,

Shlomo and Ahuva Goldberger

Welcome to Congregation Tiferes Yisroel Parshas Vayera

This week’s Lev Echad is in honor of the:

Tiferes Yisroel Sisterhood

The Weekly Parsha

Be My Guest

By H. Jackson (from shortvort.com)

“And God remembered Avraham and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow [of Sodom]” (Bereishit 19:29).

Rashi quotes the Midrash (Bereishit Rabbah 49:6): “What has remembering Avraham got to do with Lot? God remembered the following: Lot knew that Avraham and Sarah were married and that they had told the Egyptians they were siblings, yet Lot did not reveal their secret (which would have made him wealthy) because he had compassion on them, so God had compassion on Lot.”

Rabbi Yisrael Salanter inquires why Lot’s salvation depended on only this merit of keeping the secret from the Egyptians and not Lot’s merit as the only resident in Sodom who offered hospitality to guests?

We may also ask: Why was Lot’s silence here considered so meritorious that it saved him from Sodom’s destruction?

Rabbi Salanter explains that Lot’s hospitable behaviour derived from his upbringing in Avraham’s household but was not deep within his own heart. So his Mitzvah of hospitality was not able to protect him from the destruction of Sodom. However, his silence in Avraham’s moment of danger was his own work and therefore served as his saving grace.

Lot appears to have achieved Teshuvah Gemurah (complete repentance). He had originally moved to Sodom so as to pursue wealth. God now destroyed Sodom and its values. (Lot’s wife looked back, thereby showing she had not rejected Sodom’s values [specifically those of hospitality, as we know she did not serve salt to guests] hence she was destroyed too.) Lot proved he really rejected Sodom’s values (specifically pursuit of wealth without concern for others) by keeping the secret of Avraham and Sarah’s marital status when revealing it to the Egyptians could have enriched him. In this merit Lot was saved from Sodom and he did not look back (unlike his wife) because he wanted to reject Sodom’s values.

The Beit HaLevi (Rabbi Yosef Dov Soloveitchik) also remarked on the difference between Avraham’s and Lot’s hospitality. The Beit HaLevi once lodged in an inn where he was not famous and the innkeeper was extremely rude to him. When the innkeeper later discovered the identity of his guest he

apologised and explained he did not realise that he was the Beit HaLevi. However, the Beit HaLevi rebuked him as follows: The Torah recounts Avraham’s hospitality at great length, whereas Lot’s hospitality is not accorded the same prestige. This is because Avraham did not know that his guests “ANASHIM” (= men) were actually angels and yet “he ran to meet them” (Bereishit 18:2) and attended to all of their needs thinking they were regular people. Lot, on the other hand, as soon as he saw that angels (= “MALACHIM”) (Bereishit 19:1) were approaching him, thought of the honour he would gain by hosting them and then “arose” to attend to their needs. The attribute of hospitality does not depend on whether the guest is a great and important person. Rather it is how one relates to regular people that is the real hallmark of hospitality.

Hospitality Are we the friendliest shul in Baltimore? Is

our hospitality like that of Avraham? Do we enjoy Shabbos meals?

Yes, yes and yes. We have many new members and many old

members and even one new member that’s pretty old. And they like it when we’re friendly, and hospitable and invite them to lunch. Or dinner. I mean, who doesn’t like a Shabbos invitation?

So let’s do what we do best. Make new friends and invite someone new.

An Act of Chesed Each Day — from Rabbi Goldberger’s

Shabbos B’reishis Drasha The Chofetz Chaim wrote a sefer called

“Ahavas Chesed” where he elaborated on the attribute of chesed in a clear and expansive way. He writes in the name of Rav Chaim Vital ZTZ”L that a person should ask himself daily, “Did I study Torah and did I do an act of kindness (chesed) today?” This means that we should not let a day go by where we don’t do an act of chesed.

Later in the sefer, the Chofetz Chaim teaches that we can do chesed through speech and he gives several examples of this. • Teaching Torah is an act of chesed.

When we study Torah by ourselves we fulfill the Mitzvah of Talmud Torah, but when we teach Torah to another we fulfill an additional facet of Torah, “Toras Chesed.”

• If someone we know is angry, upset, or sad, and we help them resolve their feelings and help them to feel better, this is an act of chesed through speech.

• Giving good counsel to another, an “eitzah tovah,” is an act of chesed and certainly words which save another

person from harm is chesed through speech.

• Davening for a sick person is a chesed with speech as it brings benefit to that person.

In that Hashem created this world through kindness and He created it with speech, “With ten statements Hashem created the world,” it seems most fitting that we focus on doing an act of chesed a day and incorporating chesed through speech into our daily lives.

It just takes one simple question, “Have I done an act of chesed today?”

L’Chayim The kehilla is invited to a L’Chayim to

celebrate the engagement of Yoni Vick and Laya Dachman on Sunday, November 11, from noon to 3 pm at the home of Susan Vick at 2805 Bartol Avenue.

May they be zoche to build a bayis ne’eman b’Yisrael!
