MESSAGE FROM THE RABBI

Every year on the weekend coinciding with the yahrtzeit of the Rebbe’s wife, Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka, the International Conference of Chabad Woman Emissaries takes place. As with everything else in the world these days, the event will be held entirely virtually this year. Instead of rebbetzins from around the world congregating in New York, they will participate from the comfort of their own homes. But the conference will run in almost the same fashion as it does every year—workshops, general sessions, Chassidic gatherings, and inspiration for the emissaries to take back home and use to inspire their families and communities. This week’s Torah portion describes the events at Mt. Sinai, when the Jews received the Ten Commandments and the entire Torah from G-d. While it was certainly a most spiritual event, it was only temporary. The lights and sounds of Mt. Sinai didn’t last, but the inspiration continued as the Jewish people returned to their regular lives and implemented everything G-d taught them. The same is true for each of us. Whenever we receive a boost of inspiration, it’s wonderful but temporary. The real impact happens when we take that inspiration with us and use it to invigorate our day-to-day lives and the lives of those around us. Wishing you all a warm and peaceful Shabbat,

Rabbi Yeruchem Eifort

Living with the Times

By: Rabbi Yeruchem Eilfort

Yitro - Jethro

Hero or Zero?

This week’s portion is titled, “Yitro” and is named after the father-in-law of Moshe (Moses), our teacher. At the outset of our portion we learn that Yitro joined up with the Jewish people following their successful war against the nation of Amalek, which was preceded by the destruction of the Egyptian army after they followed the Jewish people into the midst of the split Sea of Reeds. 

It did not take Yitro long to make his presence felt amongst the people. He witnessed Moshe judging the people “from morning till night.” Every case was brought to Moshe for adjudication. Yitro wisely counseled Moses to establish a court system so that the people and Moshe himself would not become worn out by this unsustainable system. Moshe heeded his father in law and everything settled down and worked well. 

This portion is arguably the single most important portion in the Torah as it includes the 10 Commandments. 

We know that the name of a portion is indicative of its content. Whereas we can clearly see the connection of the name to the first part of the portion we can fairly ask what is the connection to the latter part; the part that includes the 10 Commandments? 

The Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson of righteous memory, gives us a fascinating insight based upon an explanation of the Zohar (the foundational Kabbalistic text written by Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai). 

The story of Yitro advising Moshe about establishing an appropriate legal apparatus can be understood in a much deeper way than the simple explanation that Yitro saw a need so he advised how to properly fulfill that need. The beginning of our portion states that Yitro testified that he came to join the Jewish people because he heard about all that G-d had done for the Children of Israel. Which episodes specifically inspired Yitro to join the Jews? The classic commentary Rashi explains those mentioned above, the splitting of the sea and the subsequent destruction of the Egyptians, and the attack and defeat of Amalek. 
We know that there were many miracles that had occurred between the time Moses had last seen Yitro and Yitro deciding to join the people of Israel. Why were those two incidents so important? 

Our Sages explain that each of those incidences demonstrate G-d’s attribute of justice, the attribute that resonated most profoundly with Yitro. The Egyptians had been cruel taskmasters towards their Jewish slaves and had oppressed them in many ways. However, the fact that they cast the Jewish babies into the water stood out as the most heinous and barbaric treatment of them all. What could be worse than terminating an innocent baby? Yitro’s saw the Egyptian army’s downfall in the crashing waves of the Sea of Reeds as a form of poetic just, or in the Hebrew, “Middah kinegged middah,” which means measure for measure. 

The infamous Amalakites attacked the most vulnerable of the Jewish people, the old and infirm and other stragglers. The attack came after the Jews expressed doubt in G-d and His motives. This doubt resonated in the Amalakites who represent indifference and coldness towards G-dliness. It is precisely indifference that leads one to doubt G-d, His providence and power. When the Jews experienced doubt in G-d, they became vulnerable to attack. Along came Amalek to execute the attack. The Israelites drove them off handing them a horrendous defeat. And how did they accomplish this?

We learned last week that Moses oversaw the battle and when he raised his hands the Jewish people would vanquish Amalek. Raising his hands heavenward demonstrated to the Jewish warriors that they must look heavenward for their salvation, they must strengthen their trust in G-d. When they did, they won. Amalek was defeated by the very trait that they sought to undermine and exploit. Measure for measure. 

Specifically these stories appealed strongly to Yitro’s sense of justice. Interestingly we learn about Yitro that he had sampled every known form of idol worship in his day before finally reuniting with Moses. What compelled Yitro to leave idolatry and embrace ethical monotheism as embodied in Judaism? Justice is what attracted Yitro. Therefore, when he came to the Israelite camp and he saw a system that was lacking due to a paucity of judges, Yitro spoke up. Moshe, being the humble of servant of the Almighty recognized the truth in Yitro’s critique and followed his advice. 

We can now also understand why the portion containing the 10 Commandments should be called Parshat Yitro – the portion of Yitro. The 10 Commandments are the definition of justice. Finally, Yitro found a system that addressed all of the inequities that exist. He was strongly attracted to the system that created and defined true justice for humanity. He found his path going forward! 

May we all embrace the truism that our Law, the Holy Torah, is the path of justice for all humankind and is the superior way for every one of us to connect with the Almighty!   

Wishing everyone a happy and HEALTHY Shabbos! 

Haftarah Parshat Yitro

Isaiah 6:1–13.

This week's haftorah discusses Isaiah’s vision of the Heavenly Chariot (the merkavah), a revelation that was experienced by all the Israelites when G d spoke the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai—an event recounted in this week’s Torah reading.
Isaiah perceives G d sitting on a throne surrounded by angels. Isaiah vividly describes the angels and their behavior (in anthropomorphic terms). During the course of this vision, Isaiah volunteers to be G d’s emissary to transmit His message to the Israelites. He is immediately given a depressing prophecy regarding the exile the nation will suffer as punishment for their many sins—and the Land of Israel will be left empty and desolate, though there will be left a “trunk” of the Jewish people that eventually will regrow.

VERY SPECIAL Shabbos THIS WEEK – 10 Commandments

This Shabbos we will be reading the 10 Commandments during services. This is the critical core of our Torah, hence it is the central basis of our entire faith. It is considered a GREAT Mitzvah to listen to this reading. Everyone (unless this is not recommended by your doctor or if you are not feeling well or have been in close proximity to someone who is not feeling well) is invited and encouraged to attend.

This is also the weekend of the International Convention of Chabad Rebbetzins! This year there is not convention in New York. Instead the Rebbetzins have been divided into pods around the country. Our own team of Rebbetzins is hosting just such a pod in Encinitas! We are so proud of our unbeatable team of Rebbetzins – leaders in every sense of the word! There is a specific session designed for women of the community. If you are interested in participating, please reach out to Rebbetzin Nechama for a link to sessions. 
 

We ARE OPEN - Services this week

We WILL be open this Shabbos. While here masks are required at all times, social distancing guidelines are followed, and frequent hand washing/sanitizing is encouraged. 

We will continue to closely monitor the situation. 
 

Challah and Chicken soup is ON this week. We still need more drivers.

Those who live near Chabad at La Costa are welcome to let us know if you want some delicious Challah and/or Chicken Soup delivered to you next Friday to help you celebrate Shabbat in the most delicious way possible. If you can help with deliveries, reach out to Kayla or Nechama.

Please note that all food is prepared and delivered using recommended safeguards.

Sponsors Appreciated (And Needed)

During these are extraordinary times many people are reaching out for help and, Baruch Hashem / thank G-d, we are HERE to help! ‘We’ means YOU and US, TOGETHER. It is an amazing partnership that we have!

A very special thank you goes out to our “Super Sponsor” Channah Hale who has continuously stepped forward helping us to maintain this service!

We are extremely grateful to those who have reached out to help fund us, enabling us to serve others. Thank you volunteer drivers - you can volunteer to deliver Soup and Challah!

We are seeking additional sponsors for the following dedications:

Next week’s Loaves of Love.
Next week’s Chicken soup.
Next week’s Torah classes.
Note About Sponsorships

You may have noticed that we seek multiple sponsors for the Challah, Soup, and Torah classes. We do this because we need to find ways to cover our budgetary shortfall that has been caused by the coronavirus. The donations coming to the shul have been dramatically reduced. We greatly appreciate those of you who are still supporting us! G-d bless you! We greatly appreciate your understanding as we seek ways of propping up the income necessary to keep things afloat. Your ideas about additional income streams are likewise greatly appreciated!

JLI Course - Journey of the Soul; A Fresh Look at Life, Death, and the Rest-in Peace

This is the most attended to Jewish course in the world. Find out why...click the image for more information.

6 Mondays at 7pm on Zoom (link sent to subscribers). Starting Feb. 1
6 Wednesday 2pm for seniors (special rate for this class). Starting Feb 17

Who hasn’t wondered what happens when we die? We know what happens to the body. But what happens to the soul at birth and again at death?

Is there really a “better” place after this one?
Do our loved ones continue to connect with us?
Can I relate to an afterlife if I’m not spiritual?

At once practical and powerful, reflective and relatable, Journey of the Soul teaches a Jewish perspective on life that begins before birth and lasts well after a person’s passing.

It’s a journey we all take, and it’s yours to explore this winter.

Shabbat Services with Meaning & Joy

Every Saturday we get together to celebrate the holy Shabbat in song and prayer. Our services are both traditional and user-friendly, as we fully recognize that not everyone has experience Davening (praying) in a traditional setting. What those who have joined have found is that the atmosphere in our synagogue is conducive to meaningful meditation. A knowledge of Hebrew is not necessary to participate. In fact, the only thing that is needed is the desire to learn and to connect to the Almighty. It is an enriching experience not to be missed! Shabbat services begin at 10am and conclude at approximately 12:30pm and are followed by a wonderful community lunch. There is no cost to attend and reservations are not needed.

Pay-What-You-Can-Membership

We want the membership experience to be positive. We want you to feel GOOD about giving. Yes, we have suggested donations, but you should give what you feel you can afford. If you cannot comfortably give the suggested amount THAT IS OK. If you can give more than the suggested amount, THANK YOU, IT IS APPRECIATED! We  love and appreciate your participation, and that is that. Please fill out our Membership form online by logging onto: www.ChabadatLaCosta.com/Membership. 

Create Your Jewish Legacy Plan for the Future - NOW

We have been blessed with life! Yet, we know that no one lives forever. This begs the question, “What will  your legacy be?” Most of us have children, and they certainly should figure prominently into our plans. But our children are only a part of what we leave behind. Just as we endeavor to give Tzedakah generously, so as to selflessly make the world a better place while we are alive, so too we need to make sure that we leave a percentage of our estates for the benefit of others. Judaism tells us that it is incumbent upon us to leave the world better than when we found it. We do this by giving Tzedakah.

We can help.

Chabad has partnered with the Jewish Community Foundation in the creation of our Legacy Circle "Generation to Generation - Ensuring a Jewish Tomorrow, Today".  Many people do not prepare appropriately for the inevitable. They do not leave a will, or even if they do it is not consistent with Jewish Law. If one wants his body to be handled with the respect and care mandated by Jewish Law or if one wants the funeral service conducted according to Jewish Law, it must be arranged in advance. Don’t leave these critical details to luck!

Contact Rabbi Eilfort for a private appointment so these important matters can be handled how you want.

Shul Etiquette

Those who join us regularly for Shabbat services will agree that we have something very special going. The family-friendly atmosphere is unique and most inviting. We welcome everyone as though he/she is a long time member of the family.

At the same time it is important to remember that we are a synagogue. Our sanctuary is meant to be a place where it is conducive to finding inner peace and tranquility. That is why the Rabbis have many laws concerning the decorum of a shul.

It is appropriate to dress modestly and to dress somewhat formally in shul. Men should wear button down shirts, slacks (no jeans or shorts), with jackets and even ties when possible. Of course the head is to be kept covered at all times. Women should wear skirts that go past the knees and blouses with high neck lines and sleeves that cover the elbows. Married women should wear hats and the like.

Children must be supervised at all times by the parents except during Junior Congregation (11:30am). While we want the children to have a great time together it is also important that they do not become so wild and/or boisterous that they disturb those of us who are participating in the services.

We must remember that we should walk to shul and never park in the parking lot if there already eight cars parked. Finally, and we fully realize this goes against Jewish DNA, it is appropriate to come to shul ON TIME. While we know everyone is vying to be counted as the 10th, we are equally sure Hashem will give extra credit to those who come ON TIME at 10am (not to be confused with 11:30). We look forward to seeing you here!

Cell Phones & Chatting During Services

Needless to say the sanctuary on Shabbat or holidays is a place that must be conducive to reflective prayers and serenity. To help keep it this way, please refrain from engaging in any conversations during services and please do not bring in your cell phone. Thank you for your cooperation.

Critical Maintenance Issue – Your Cooperation Needed

PLEASE NOTE: The ONLY thing that may be flushed is toilet paper – NO EXCEPTIONS. This means tissue, baby wipes, paper towels, or any other product may NEVER be flushed, but instead must be disposed of in the provided trash receptacles.

THANK YOU for your cooperation!
