Dear Chaverim,
A lot has been said in the media
about the convergence of Thanks-
giving and Chanukah this year.
Thanksgiving is November 28th
the latest it can ever come. The frst
day of Chanukah always falls on the
25th of the Hebrew month of Kislev
and this year it falls on the earliest
possible date on the civil calendar
which is November 28th (Thanksgiving). On Thanksgiv-
ing itself, we will already be lighting the second Chanukah
candle. It will take many more centuries for the Jewish and
the civil or Gregorian calendar to converge again in this way!
As we are all aware, the Jewish holidays fall on diferent
dates of the civil calendar from year to year. Here is why. The
months of the Hebrew calendar are based upon the cycle
of the moon. Every month begins on the new moon and is
celebrated as Rosh Chodesh (lit. the Head of the Month).
In fact, the Hebrew word for month chodesh comes from
the same root as the word chadash which means new.
It takes the moon approximately 29 1/2 days to orbit the
Earth. Therefore, each Hebrew month has either 29 or 30
days. There are 12 Hebrew months in a year. It takes 354
days for the moon to orbit the Earth 12 times, making 12
lunar months or 11 days shy of our civil or Gregorian calen-
dar.
If we did not compensate for those 11 lost days, then every
Jewish holiday would be celebrated 11 days earlier than
the year before. This cannot be because several Jewish
holidays are seasonal holidays and we all know that the
seasons are determined by the relationship of the Earth to
the Sun. We compensate for the lost 11 days by adding 7
leap years in a 19 year cycle. A leap year in the Hebrew
calendar means adding a full month of 29 or 30 days. By
adding the 7 months every 19 years, the Hebrew calendar
catches up to the civil Gregorian calendar. While our civil
calendar is a solar calendar for it is based solely on the sun,
the Hebrew calendar can be described as a fxed lunar
calendar or a luni-solar calendar. (The months are based
upon the moon but many holidays are based upon the sun.)
Incidentally, the Muslim calendar is purely a lunar calendar

and Muslim holidays fall 11 days earlier than the previous
year all the time.
The convergence of Chanukah and Thanksgiving may not
be so odd after all. In fact, Chanukah has its roots in the
Jewish holiday of giving thanks, namely the Festival of
Sukkot. In the year 165 B.C.E., the Maccabees had just
fnished a war against the ancient Greek-Syrians. The war
had been waged because the ancient Greeks were spread-
ing Hellenism, that is Greek culture and ideals throughout
the land and had defled the sacred Temple in Jerusalem by
bringing in Greek idols in their attempt to make the Temple
a place for Greek worship.
When the war fnally ended in the Fall of 165 B.C.E., the
men in the Maccabean army were anxious to resume their
normal lives. They wanted to return to their families and
home life, they wanted to return to work and they wanted
to return to their religious life as well. One of the frst tasks
they needed to do was to cleanse the Temple in Jerusalem
and to rededicate it as a Jewish place of worship. Feeling
the need to resume their religious lives and since they were
going to Jerusalem to rededicate the Temple, the Macca-
bean army decided to celebrate Sukkot, the last holiday that
they missed and which is one the three Pilgrimage Festi-
vals (Passover and Shavuot being the other two) on which
it was customary to make pilgrimage to Jerusalem for its
observance. Hence, they celebrated the rededication of
the Temple for eight days (Sukkot concludes with Shemini
Atzeret on the 8th day).
As you can see, the very frst Chanukah was combined with
the late observance of Sukkot, the festival during which we
express our thanks for the blessings that are ours.
This is also the actual, historical reason why Chanukah is
celebrated for eight days. The story about the oil miracu-
lously lasting eight days is a midrash or story written several
hundred years after the Maccabees had defeated the Greek-
Syrians as a way to bring God into the story of Chanukah.
After all, only God can perform miracles! It was the Talmudic
writers way of saying that the victory of the small Jewish
army over the much bigger and more powerful army of the
Greek-Syrians was so miraculous, it was as though the
Maccabees had found only enough oil to last one day in the
Temple but it lasted for eight days. Sometimes the creative
minds of the rabbis may contrive a midrash which, given
time, is believed to be historically true!
This Thanksgiving we can forgo the stufng. Our Thanksgiv-
ing meal will be Turkey and potato latkes!
I wish everyone in our community a happy, healthy and
bright Chanukah!
Lshalom,
Rabbi Ira Korinow

HEFTY News
HEFTY is already one month into the year and weve
already got a few events under our belt! On October 5th,
we gathered at Laser Quest in Danvers for an evening of
laser tag, snacks, and fun! We had an excellent turnout
and a great deal of fun! Also, we volunteered at a Temple
familys Bar Mitzvah helping to greet people, serve food
and clean up.
Were awaiting our next HEFTY event on November 2nd
Shear Madness, a whodunit comedy that leaves every-
one in stitches. Cost for this event for members is $25.00
plus $10.00 for dinner. Well be leaving from the temple
at 6:00 pm, and expect to be back at 11:45 pm. Clocks
are turned back that evening, so we will gain an hour of
sleep.
In NFTY, were greatly awaiting Levi Leap, a yearly dance
for Jewish teens from all over the New England area. On
average, 300 or so teens come to this event. Its an excel-
lent place to meet new friends and old ones, too!
For ongoing projects, we have started Snack Shack on
Wednesdays. Students are able to purchase snacks
prior to the start of Religious School. Also, recycling is
removed before the end of each month from the Temple.
If you want to come join us for Jewish fun and social time
and are in the 8th-12th grade, send Ben Shalek an email
at bsgross12@gmail.com, who can get you all the need-
ed information. Also feel free to contact Advisor Jesse
Kamien at jesse.kamien@gmail.com or Youth Chair Trudy

Kitah Alef, our 1st grade class, had
the honor of being the frst class
this year to have Breakfast with the
Rabbi. Along with bagels and fruit,
the students in Kitah Alef learned
about Kippot, Talit and Tllin. When
I walked into the room all eyes were
on the rabbi as he showed them
how to put on the Tllin and asked
questions of the students. Most
had never seen a Tllin before so this was a great learn-
ing experience for them.
Our 7th graders took 5 boxes and a number of bags
of food to Emmaus House. Thank you to those in the
religious school and temple community who donated.
The food was greatly appreciated. We have also had a
number of our Bar Mitzvah students make donations to
various places in the Haverhill area including books to
dentists of ces to hand out to children and sports equip-
ment to the YMCA and Boys and Girls Clubs. This newer
trend of using items to be donated in lieu of owers on
the bimah, for centerpieces on the tables, raising money
and donating time for many diferent charities shows how
our students and their families have really adopted the
concept of Tzedakah.
The frst of four Chugim (enrichment activities) to be held
this year featured Judaic themed games in the Winer
Auditorium and edible painted Chanukah cookies. These
activities are ones the students look forward to and ask
me almost every Wednesday when they arrive if they are
having Chugim that day.
The annual Religious School Book Fair will take place
on two Sundays, November 3rd and 17th during Jewish
Book Month. We will have a great selection of Jewish
themed books for children, teens and adults. We will also
have Franny Eisenman return with her fabulous jewelry
and Kevin Miller with his delicious chocolates. If you
are interested in renting a table and selling your special
items, please contact me. Books will be ready for pick-up
beginning on Wednesday, November 20th. Chanukah is
early this year. Why schlep into Boston when you can get
great gifts right here!
Please join us for Peace Shabbat on November 15th, led
by the students of Kitot Hay and Vav (Grades 5 and 6).
This is always a special service and I know you will enjoy
hearing the words of our students as they talk about
peace as they know it.
I am looking forward to seeing everyone at the Book Fair
and at Peace Shabbat.

BookNotes &
Its Jewish Book Month! The roots of Jewish Book Month
can be traced back to 1925, when a Boston librarian
curated a display of Judaic books as the focus of what
she termed Jewish Book Week. The event spread to
communities around the country and was later expanded
to a one-month celebration falling immediately before
Hanukkah to promote Jewish books as gifts. Visit
HaSifriyah for displays of recent books of note and lists
of recommended titles. Here at Temple Emanu-El, Jewish
Book Month also brings the Religious School Book Fair.
I encourage everyone in our community to visit the book
fair on November 3rd and November 17th; books make
great gifts, and all purchases will beneft the Religious
School. Consider donating a book to HaSifriyah to help
keep our collection fresh; look for HaSifriyah Wish List
bookmarks as you shop.
Our book group will meet again on November 3rd, when
we will discuss The Time Keeper, by Mitch Albom. The
Time Keeper explores notions of the meaning and value
of time through the story of the inventor of the worlds
frst clock, who is punished for trying to measure Gods
greatest gift. On December 8th, we will meet to discuss
Jerusalem Maiden, by Talia Carner. Additional dates have
been scheduled on the 2013-2014 calendar, and a book-
mark with these dates is available in the library. Come
join us for some lively discussions!
Thank you to everyone for your continuing support of
our fundraising eforts through the Amazon.com Asso-
ciates Program. All funds are used to acquire books,
magazines, music, videos and supplies for the library.
This is a year-round program, so please keep the link
handy (or access it from the website www.templeemanu-

Windows to the Future . . . is Back!
Thanks to a generous anonymous donation of $25,000, we are pleased to announce
the return of our Windows to the Future renovation project. A major part of this
campaign was to improve the aesthetics and function of the 10th Avenue entrance
and hallway.
Our punch list of building improvements will include:
o Repaint and clean up the exterior of the building on the 10th avenue entrance.
o Replace the six windows on the 10th avenue side of the building.
o Renovate the hallway from the 10th avenue entrance to the
library. This will include a new oor, new ceiling, new light xtures, covering the
exposed wires, covering the cinder block with sheetrock and installing oak baseboards
and handrails.
Completed:
o Relocate the Holocaust Memorial and the family gift board to improve the circulation in the
Main Street lobby.
The estimated project cost for this work is $75,000. In order to complete all of the work, we need to raise an
additional $50,000. Please contact me at 978-372-1451 during the work day or 978-685-4535 at night if you
would like to make a gift to the campaign!
Thank you! Larry Cowan
Fourth Annual
Global Day of Jewish Learning Why Bother?
Sunday, November 17, 2013 Starting at 9:30am
The Pew Research Centers survey on American
Jews released in October 2013 shows a remark-
able dilution of Jewish identity potentially
beyond recognition and sustainability.
A vibrant non-Orthodox Judaism is threatened
by trends both universal and particular, and it
will require honest evaluation, a bold commit-
ment to education and a passion to care for each other in order to
reverse those trends.
In an article written in 1995 called What Will Become of the Jewish
People, Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz wrote that an important key to survival
of Jewish life in the diaspora was Jewish education for children, for
parents, for grandparents and a deeper involvement of a broader base
for a signifcant Jewish culture.
The Global Day of Jewish Learning aims to provide one avenue that
can lead toward that deeper involvement.
Temple Emanu-El of Haverhill has been a leader in the broader Boston
area in participating in the Global Day since it was founded by Rabbi
Steinsaltz and continues for the fourth year in a row on November
17th. As in previous years, over 400 communities globally are expect-
ed to participate in this day of Jewish learning. The subject this year is
Creating Together.
Rabbi Steinsaltzs contention is that Mans role in the world is to do,
to createand in the sense of tikkun olamto better the world. Ques-
tions to be discussed this year and debated will include Creating
Community the challenges and benefts, if any, of being part of a
larger community,Man as Creator our responsibility for taking care
of and improving the world,Creativity and Study do the rules and
structure of religion inhibit individual expression; is religion the enemy
of innovation or a strong advocate ranking constructive innovation
as a religious obligation;Creating Shabbat: Is Rest intended as a
Creative Act? a chance to restore ones soul? Is this still necessary in
our highly complex world? Is it ever possible to be unplugged? Rabbi
Adin Steinsaltz discusses this in an essay entitled: The Thirteen Petalled
Rose.
Our Jewish tradition accumulated across a huge expanse of time and
every generation asks itself, What is our role in the world; are these
questions still relevant to my time, how can I relate to them, and
what does it do for me personally or for us as a community to ask
these questions?
There may be no more critical questions for us as modernJews to ask
ourselves.
There may be diferent answers for all of us, but asking questions and
fnding how to delve into answers may be the most important thing of
all for us-ourselves, our children, and the future of our Judaism. Espe-
cially bring your older children for whom the answers may determine
who they become.
Come and challenge us; come and enjoy.
Specifcs on timing and registration, individual topics to sign up for,
and additional information updates will be coming out in subsequent
emails; be sure to put this on your calendar.
As before, the Temple Emanu-El Adult Education committee will
provide a continental breakfast and a hot lunch.
Chanukah begins Wednesday, November 27th at sunset. The candles are placed in the
menorah from right to left but are kindled from left to right. On Shabbat evening, the Chanukah

The following names at yahrzeit will be read on Shabbat
Honor your Mother and your Father
The Torah tells us that we must always honor our parents. Our Jewish tradition extends that law to say that we must honor all our loved ones, and
remember them in death. There is no better way to remember and honor the memory of your departed family members than to have a Memorial Yahrzeit
Plaque on the wall of the Temple sanctuary.
You have seen the plaques on the wall of the sanctuary. Each week, the plaques belonging to our beloved departed, whose Yahrzeit, or anniversary
of death, is that week, are lighted. This is to recognize the anniversary of that person, and to give us an opportunity to lovingly honor the memory of
that person, at least once every year. Also, three times per year, on Yizkor, all the plaques are lit to remember all the loved ones of our Temple.
The plaque contains the name of the deceased, both in English and Hebrew, as well as the date of the persons death. The plaques are available
whenever the sanctuary is open, so someone can always see the name and remember the loving memories of the departed family member. This is a
loving way to remember a parent, spouse or child.
The cost of a memorial Yahrzeit plaque is a one-time cost of $250. This cost includes the engraving of the plaque, placing it on the wall, in alphabetical
order, and having it lit on Yahrzeit and Yizkor to perpetuity. To purchase a plaque, contact Nancy or the Rabbi at the Temple, (978) 373-3861.

come and get it, so you do not have to bring it
anywhere. Its a win-win situation for everyone!
Heres why:
You dont have to worry about selling your car
and having the buyer invoke the Lemon Law
The car does not even have to be running
They will come to your house and take it right
out of your driveway
You get a tax deduction for the full amount of
selling the car
You make a donation to the Temple that
doesnt cost you any of your own money
You get an IRS form 1098 listing the Temple
as the recipient, that you use for your tax de-
duction
What could be easier? You get rid of a car that
you dont want anyway, and the Temple gets a
donation.
If you are interested, call the Temple to help you
through the process. Or, better yet, call me, and I
will personally help you make the donation.

Use scrip yourself, or give it as gifts. The possibilities are endless!
Shop with Scrip is an easy way to support Temple Emanu-El.
Simply purchase gift cards (or scrip) for places where you plan
to shop, and use those cards instead of cash or credit. The Tem-
ple purchases the gift cards at a discount and sells them at full

in your pocket to use just like cash. Scrip can be used for all your
household purchases: groceries, clothes, household supplies,
gasoline, entertainment, dining, and gifts, to name just a few.

ple of ce and on our website at www.TempleEmanu-El.org/fund-
