Conversational Hebrew with Bracha Malkin

via the ?History of the Jews of France.? If you can read & write basic Hebrew,

join our friendly group. Mondays, 9:45? 10:45 am

-------------------------------Tikkun Olam isn?t a Jewish idea, per se. It?s a

wonderful universalist ideal. The sentence from which it is taken has a second half ? b?malchut Shadai (in the kingdom of God) ? that largely has been silenced. Without an authentically

Jewish component, it fades into the contemporary culture. Building a life and a

home where the Shabbat table is a sanctuary, where the Jewish calendar becomes

circuit-training for the soul, where each festival becomes an authentic self-improvement

opportunity and then giving broad expression to being part of the Jewish people would give

tikkun olam context and authenticity.-BJ Member Selwyn Gerber, quoted in

this week's Jewish Journal.
