the greater Palm Beaches, built upon an expansive and inclusive vision of
what a Jewish community can be.

action. As an egalitarian, Conservative congregation, we are committed to
nurturing and facilitating the personal and spiritual journeys of all our members and welcome all who enter our doors. We strive to do so in a manner
that resonates with their innermost needs and interests, resulting in
increased involvement, observance and participation.

PRESIDENT’S
MESSAGE
We have all heard the famous cry
from supporters during presidential
election time…four more years!
In our temple world it was 2 more
years, 2 years ago and my second “2 more years” is
over in 2 months. I am looking forward to the next 2
years as your past president.
Tuesday March 31, 2015 is the Annual Meeting of the
Congregation. It will begin at 6 PM. In addition to
reports that will be given that summarize the year’s
work, we will have the election of Officers and Trustees for the NEW Board. (See page 4). In addition, on
April 24th, we will have a “really big night” as we usher
in the NEW and say good-bye to the past. We will
have an International Dinner that evening followed by
Kabbalat Shabbat services with a few surprises and
then the installation of the NEW board of trustees,
officers and president. This is when my next 2 years
kick in!
To me, being past president means ensuring that my
work and the work of my predecessors, Ron Schram,
Gladys Jacobson, Marvin Rosen and Steve Levin is
taken to even higher heights. Perhaps a cliché, but we
must build upon what others before us have done.
With the assumption that the slate proposed is voted
on and approved, I am more than confident that our
synagogue will continue to flourish.
My last plea to all of you is that you volunteer, contribute, attend and be advocates for others to join our
temple community. Please re-read our mission statement in the middle of page 2. I pledge to you my continued love and support for our shul.
Sincerely,
Anthony Lampert

A MESSAGE FROM THE RABBI...
Let me begin by saying how much I appreciate you
being a member of Temple Emanu-El of Palm Beach.
I am so happy you are here. And since you are here,
I have a few questions for you.
Why are you here? What compelled you to join
Temple Emanu-El? What were your reasons for
joining? Are you getting from the Temple that which
you wanted or expected?
You see, contrary to popular belief, Temple Emanu-El of Palm Beach
is NOT the building located at 190 N. County Road. Temple
Emanu-El is you. It’s me. It’s the hundreds of people that make up
our congregation. If our beautiful building was suddenly replaced
with a barn, we would all still be Temple Emanu-El. WE are the beating heart of this Temple, not the building.
So I ask you, have you found what you are looking for by being a
member of Temple Emanu-El? If yes, then I’m delighted to hear it. If
no, then I’m going to ask you to do something about it.
This Temple is your Temple. I need you to help make it what you
want it to be.
If there is a program you’d like to see us offer; if there is a Jewish
subject you would like to learn more about; if you’d like to explore
your spirituality in more depth – anything – I encourage you to let
me know.
In the Torah in Parashat Terumah, God instructs the Israelites to
build a Sanctuary so that God can dwell – not in the Sanctuary – but
in the heart of each person. “V’asu Li Mikdash v’shachanti
b’tocham.”
We just completed a major renovation of the synagogue. Our
campus – outside and inside – has never looked better. The “Sanctuary” has been built. Now comes the next step – and to me, the
more important one – of ensuring that our Temple is alive, vibrant
and meeting the needs of each and every member of our community.
I can’t do this for us. But we can do this together.
With your help, participation and involvement, I look forward to us
creating a more sacred space in our Temple and in our hearts.
B’Shalom,
Rabbi Michael Resnick

Rosh Chodesh Nisan 5775
Every year we start to feel like Passover is
upon us – as soon as we read the Megillah on
Purim. So it’s cleaning time and time to buy
the kosher for Passover food, to plan the
menus, to invite the guests, and to study the
texts that help us celebrate the major holiday
of Nisan.
This year let’s focus our attention on the number “four” as we
begin our Passover preparation.
Passover has several items that come in “fours” in its celebration: four questions, four sons, four cups of wine, and one
Internet source says there are four flavors of matzah: unsalted,
egg, onion, and white grape. Have you tasted white grape
flavored matzah. I personally didn’t know about the white
grape flavored matzah but it sounds interesting. The holiday
also has four names: Hag HaPesah (the festival of Passover),
Hag HaMatzot (the festival of matzah), Hag Ha'Aviv (the festival of spring) and Z'man Heiruteinu (the time of our freedom).
What is the source of all these “fours?”
In Exodus 6:6-8, God makes four promises to Moses: "I will
free you from the labors of the Egyptians and deliver you from
their bondage. I will redeem you -- and I will take you to be My
people."
Some however believe that there were five promises, including “I will bring you to the land that I promised to your forefathers.”
If there were five promises why aren’t there five cups? We are
told in rabbinic literature that some rabbis argued for four
cups and others for five. In the end it was decided that this
argument would be decided by the Messiah, whose forerunner
we believe is to be Elijah the prophet. As a result the fifth cup
was added – Elijah’s cup – to remind us of all five promises.
The four questions remind us of the four responses that the
Bible offers when people asked why we celebrate Passover.
As you celebrate this year and enjoy your family at your
sedarim, ask them to find other numbers in the haggadah (if
they can!) and to remember the miracle of the Exodus in
which we all participated (In every generation) thousands of
years ago.
Hag Pesah Sameah!

reform in the Arab world, radical Islam and terrorism - are
of utmost importance.
No one can help explain it better than Dr. Robert G. Rabil.
Dr. Rabil holds a Masters in Government from Harvard

Passover is just around the corner
and that means that it is time to
Sell your Chametz!
As you know, the Torah (Exodus 12:19 and 13:7) prohibits
possession of Chametz (leaven) on Passover. In other
words, it is a biblical requirement to get rid of all of the
Chametz in your possession before Passover begins.
As an alternative to the disposal of Chametz, many people
sell their Chametz (Mechirat Chametz) as a means of
"removing" the Chametz from their possession. If you
would like the Temple to sell your Chametz on your
behalf, please contact the office (561) 832-0804 and we
do the rest!
The deadline to sell your Chametz is by
Friday, April 3, 2015 at 10:00AM.
This is time-sensitive, so don't delay!

Yom Universal, and Pre-Kadima did their
part to help others with a Social

Our group of 44 youth members traveled to Orlando early Sunday, February 15th for a two day
adventure at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. On
Ice Cream Reception to follow
day one of our trip the members were reunited with friends
from all over the HaNegev region of United Synagogue Youth.
The friends were able to partake in all of the park’s activities Contact Amanda with any questions amanda@tepb.org

CLERGY GRATUITIES
Members inquire from time to time
what the proper protocol is for
recognizing the Rabbi and Hazzan for
officiating at life-cycle events. The
answer is that the Rabbi and Hazzan
are paid by the Temple to provide
those services to our members.
Therefore, separate compensation is
neither charged nor expected for
those services. However, if a person
feels motivated to do more, we
recommend that contributions be
made to the Temple in honor of the
Rabbi and/or Hazzan. Each of them
also maintains a discretionary fund
from which financial assistance is
provided to those in our congregation
and our larger community who are in
need.
