FROM THE RABBI'S STUDY
RABBI BARRY BLOCK
Dear Friends:
“Be Happy; it’s Adar!”
Adar is the month that includes the
festive, even frivolous, holiday of
Purim.
This year, Purim will be particularly
meaningful at Congregation B’nai Israel, including our fabulous annual
events and more. Read inside for details! What’s special this year? When we
read from the Megillah, we will have the opportunity to read from an actual
Scroll of Esther, a real Megillah!
Last summer, when our congregant Beth Levi was cleaning out her parents’
home, after the death of her dear mother, she came across a scroll. Beth
knew that her grandfather had been a rabbi, but she didn’t know that he
had his very own Scroll of Esther, and that it had been passed down to
her parents. The scroll was in a canister that, to quote Beth, “had outlived
its purpose,” so Beth can be excused for not recognizing the gem that laid
inside.
Now, Beth, her husband Duff Campbell, and their children, Eva and Raphael,
have generously donated the Megillah of Esther to Congregation B’nai
Israel in memory of her parents, Aida and David Levi, of blessed memory.
Making the gift even more special and beautiful, Beth commissioned an
artist, Evi Sheffres, who was a friend of her parents, to make a magnificent,
decorative new container for the Megillah. I was honored to collaborate
with Evi and Beth, to suggest a color scheme and theme appropriate for
the holiday. Evi involved Sim Glantz, a woodworker, who constructed
a practical and aesthetically pleasing stand to hold the Megillah and its
container.
During our Megillah reading on March 8, at 11:00 a.m. in the Sanctuary, we
will take the opportunity to dedicate this Megillah to our congregation and
its future generations, in memory of Beth’s parents, with our gratitude to
Beth and her family for their generosity.
Beth is not, of course, the first to donate a sacred object to Congregation
B’nai Israel. Throughout our congregation’s 149 year history, generous
congregational families have dedicated Torah Scrolls, ritual objects, and
prayer books.

FROM THE RABBI'S STUDY continued...
Gina Kokes has undertaken, with the partnership of Jim Pfeifer and
our Archives, a tremendous project to identify the source of our
most holy objects. Even better, Gina has worked with Ellyn Polsky to
devise and implement a curriculum to involve many of our Religious
School classes in a project-based learning unit to explore the sacred
symbols of Congregation B’nai Israel.
Needless to say, Gina has documented the Levi-Campbell family’s
donation of the Megillah for posterity!

FROM THE PRESIDENT
And the Youth Shall See Visions
And the old shall dream dreams
And the Youth shall see visions
- Debbie Friedman
It has come to my attention in recent weeks that a number of folks have
questions about our Temple music, how is it chosen, where did it come
from and who wrote it. So if I may change hats for a moment I'd like
to try to answer some of these questions drawing from my experience
over the last 20 years and some research I have done.
When I was growing up here in the 1950s and 60s, our music was
offered in the style of most Reform congregations of the day, that which
we now refer to as Classical Reform. Music was almost always played on
an organ and performed by a soloist, sometimes with an accompanying
choir, usually unseen. In revisiting the old Union Hymnal with an assist
from my iPhone's Google Search, I was able to identify some pieces
composed by masters such as Mendelson (of Jewish ancestry), with
some "contemporary" lyrics by John Milton and John Quincy Adams
(not Jewish). Not surprisingly many of these hymns were composed
in major keys and sounded a lot like those of our Christian neighbors.
Following the birth of Reform Judaism in the latter half of the 19th
century, a number of composers began churning out pieces, many of
which were converted to English like Praise to the Living God (based
upon the traditional Yigdal), the Lord of All (Adon Olam), and How
Good It Is (Tov L'hodot but based upon an older Lewandowski melody
for L'cha Dodi). Other more prolific composers such as A. W. Binder
and S. Sobel wrote a great many tunes but they seem to have lacked the
staying power of those mentioned above and the works of Solomon
Sulzer (Shema and most of our Torah service). No one knows who
wrote God Is in His Holy Temple and it is believed that the venerable
version of Ein Keloheinu is an old German drinking song. Still these
are the melodies that many of us listened to in Temple with our folks
and they say "home" to us.
Enter the young: a whole generation of baby boomers reached their teens
and at their parents' insistence became involved in our Temple Youth
Group with its regional and national gatherings. There they became
involved with the music of their times which were not surprisingly songs
of protest and social action (The Hammer Song, We Shall Overcome,
Blowin' in the Wind). Still there was a lack of new and original music for
this genereation in their camps and in their worship. That is until a young
songleader from St. Paul, Debbie Friedman, stepped forward with her
debut album Sing Unto God in 1972. For nearly 40 years Debbie graced
us with dozens of new melodies in a folk-rock style that transformed our
worship and our song sessions. She was soon joined by others such as
Jeff Klepper, Doug Cotler and Julie Silver and a whole new calling, that
of the Jewish songleader and service leader had been born.
Fast forward now to the 1980s when Jana Cohen and Steve Bauman
first began to incorporate this more contemporary style of music into
our worship services. In the early 1990s they invited me to join them
and since then we have tried to keep up with what's out there that we
think the congregation would enjoy. It seems many, though not all,
seem to enjoy this newer style with its rhythm, its visibility and the
feeling of singing along with rather than being sung to. Many of these
newer songs employ a combination of Hebrew and English making
them both singable and educational. Furthermore, many use minor
keys giving the music a much more Jewish flavor.
Now fast forward one more time to the year 2000. Baby boomers
are now 50 and have kids who are of Temple Youth Group age. I
was attending my first Hava Nashira gathering for song leaders and
service leaders held in Oconomowac, WI. It was cold and rainy as
we registered and I sat down for a cup of soup next to a tall friendly
chap from Nashville. After introducing myself I asked who he was and
what he did. He said his name was Dan Nichols and that he was in a
Jewish rock band. I remember thinking to myself, "Yeah, right." Well,
he was right and now we have music from the likes of Dan, Rick Recht
and Josh Nelson to learn and play for our kids so that they can find
meaning in their worship and in living a Jewish life just as we all did.
Transitions such as these are never easy and must be undertaken
gradually and with great sensitivity and respect for those who came
before. At every URJ Biennial there are classes on how to introduce
new music to your congregation and I never miss them. I am confident
that if, we all listen to each other, and try to keep in mind where we
have come from and where we should be going that Congregation
B'nai Israel will continue to move forward, just as we have always done.

Purim
THE TEMPLE CHRONICLE
VOLUME 15 ISSUE 2
Purim is a holiday of reversals. Haman
casts lots (purim) to pick a time to
annihilate the Jews only to find himself
eliminated. A quiet congregant with the
right amount of wine transforms into
a merry Persian King at a party. Even
a cherished object can find its status
changed, our recently donated Megillat
Esther, moved from a worn metal
holder into a beautiful enameled work
of art.
Last summer, Beth Levi and her family presented the congregation
with a Megillat Esther she found among her parents’ possessions after
they had passed away. Beth believes the Megillah was a bar mitzvah
gift to her father from her grandfather, Rabbi Eliezer Levi. Although
the utilitarian case served Rabbi Levi well as he traveled the Pacific
during World War II and served various congregations throughout
this country, Beth wanted the Megillah to rest in a more attractive case
since it’s a gift to our Temple in honor of her parents—Aida and David.
After consulting with Rabbi Block about the style of the holder, Beth
turned to longtime friend of the family and enamel artist, Evelyn
“Evi” Sheffres, and Evi’s cousin, Seymour “Simi” Glantz, a wood and
metal sculptor, to work on the project. (Pictured above)
MARCH 2015
PAGE 4
“It was a very challenging piece to create,”
Evi explained. “Enamel doesn’t like to
be shaped into a ring” and breaks easily.
In addition, the weight of the material
required her to design custom equipment
to handle the container. Although Evi felt
the festive colors proposed by Rabbi Block
were perfect—purple, yellow and green—
the particular shade of purple used on the
case was new to the artist and she experimented with the color till she
achieved the perfect hue. Simi also faced his own project challenges—
creating a tight inner liner for the case that didn’t damage the scroll.
He also designed the wooden holder and inscribed it with the family
name—Levi.
“I loved Beth’s parents and I love Beth,”
said Evi, "so all the research, sketching and
collaboration were completed with joy." "It
was like destiny," Evi remarked, "the Temple
needed a scroll, Beth discovered the right
scroll and Simi and I had the skills to fashion
a piece of art to remain with the Temple for
many generations to come."
