A MESSAGE FROM RABBI JOSHUA FRANKLIN / MAZEL TOV

The Attitude of Gratitude


The Talmud, the great compendium of Jewish legal thought and wisdom,
makes the following distinctions between good and bad dinner guests.
“What does a good guest say,” asks the sage Ben Zoma? “My hosts have done
so much on my behalf. They have served a fine meal with wine, meat and
bread. They have done so much for me!” Bad dinner guests, on the other
hand, what do they say? “My hosts didn’t do all that much. After all, I only
ate one piece of meat, one piece of bread, and drank only one cup of wine.”
Such a guest concludes that, “my hosts cooked mainly for themselves and
their family, but not so much for me.” The good dinner guest and the bad
dinner guest eat the same meal, have the same experience, and yet come
to radically different conclusions. The difference between the two guests,
the sages point out, is the virtue of gratitude.

Gratitude is not being thankful when we have abundance, it’s being satisfied with whatever it is
that we have. Gratitude is less a feeling, and more of a state of mind that we practice. The Hebrew
term for gratitude is “‫ הכרת הטוב‬hakarat hatov,” which literally translates into, “recognizing the good
in things.” The implication is that the good is already there, yet practicing gratitude is merely about
uncovering it and being able to see it. Rabbi Bachya ibn Pakuda, an 11th Century Jewish philosopher
and ethicist, teaches that there isn’t a person alive who hasn’t been given gifts, if only the gifts of
life and hope. But we tend to suffer a kind of blindness that keeps us from seeing and appreciating
what we have. If you find yourself in such a place where you can’t seem to see anything for which
you might be grateful, it is taught that one should say: “‫ מודים אנחנו לך ה’ אלהינו על שאנו מודים לך‬We give
thanks to you God, for the mere ability to offer you thanks.”

Practicing gratitude isn’t easy, but it’s surely worth it. “Who is rich?” asks the rabbinic sage Ben Azzai,
“The person who has joy in what they have.” There is no better time than a crisis or a pandemic to be
reminded that there is still blessing and good in so many places in this world. We just have to work
on being able to see it.

Want to cultivate an attitude of gratitude? Try these 3 practices:

1. Before you go to bed, vocalize out loud one thing for which you are grateful, and try to say
something new and different each and every night.

2. Take a photo each day of something that you are grateful for. Put the photos in an album and
review them each Shabbat.

3. Judaism prescribes saying the words “Modeh (m) /Modah (f) ani l’fanecha (I give thanks before
you) each morning when you wake up. There are many melodies to this prayer that composers
have written. Try downloading the app “Flavors of Gratefulness” from the Apple App Store,
which offers 36 different Jewish melodies for singing these words.

A MESSAGE FROM RABBI DEBRA STEIN, CANTOR

My life has changed forever. I have been blessed with a miracle, the birth
of a grandchild. When my daughter told me that she was pregnant, my joy
overflowed for her. I had little to no idea how this would change me. Many who
became grandparents before me said those wise, sage words, “Wait, you’ll see.”
I couldn’t ever have imagined what they were talking about.

I was lucky to have my daughter and her husband with me during most of the
pregnancy, and I began to count blessings during a pandemic.

Baruch Atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech Ha’Olam…

Who has allowed me to spend time with my son-in-law and see all that my
daughter fell in love with

Who has blessed my daughter and her husband with fertility and the ability to conceive

Who has allowed me to experience the months of pregnancy through the eyes of my daughter

Who has given me a home where I can find space for my children to live

Who brought a kitten into our lives

Who gave my dog patience to learn how to live with this new kitten

And the blessings just kept making me aware of how even through a pandemic, having faith in a power
greater than me could allow me to see the smallest gifts as blessings.

We have all lived through so much. So much isolation and so much fear. So much confusion and so
much uncertainty. Now we are seeing the possibility of the silver lining. Now we are able to see family
and friends without tremendous fears. Yes, I still have my reservations, but I don’t live in constant fear.
I’m still very cautious, but again, I don’t live in constant fear.

I digress, let me go back to my blessing. It was the second night Seder, when I received a call that my
daughter had gone into labor. The arrangement was that I would go immediately to their house so
that I could take care of the aforementioned kitten. My intention was to take part in the JCOH Zoom
second night Seder from their apartment. However, my brain could not wrap itself around anything
other than my daughter and everything she and her husband were going through.

So, I packed up everything I needed, and drove to their home. Much of everything after that was a
blur of emotions, expectations, anxiety and hope, as I waited for news that the baby had been born.
I told very few people because I didn’t want to be inundated with emails and calls and texts asking
what was happening, since I had no idea. I only knew that they were in the hospital receiving the best
care possible. I found out on Monday, the 28th that I had a grandson. A few days later, when they came
home, I got to see this newborn miracle and that is when my heart melted. Wait, you’ll see!

Let me say this. My heart if filled with Love as it has never been before. To see my child with her child
in her arms is pure joy. To be able to love him and see him has been the miracle I always prayed for. To
you, my congregational family, I thank you for all of your well wishes, all of your calls and your gifts.

Our JCOH family has grown by one more. Chazak Chazak V’nitchazek... may we be strong and
strengthen one another.

To all of you who tried to tell me about the joys of being a grandmother, I will admit, you were all right.

Nes Gadol Haya Po…A Great Miracle Happened Here.

Rabbi Debra Stein, Cantor

TIKKUN LEIL SHAVUOT / SHAVUOT MORNING SERVICE WITH YIZKOR

SHAVUOT
It’s time to receive Torah! Shavuot is the celebration of the moment when the Torah
was given to Moses and the Israelites at Mount Sinai. Each year, we reenact the
moment by reading the 10 commandments, studying all night long (our community
study won’t go that long), and eating dairy food, like cheese cake. Because Israel is
called the “land of milk and honey,” we nosh on dairy food. Perhaps, it’s not as ritually
distinct as eating latkes or matzah, but who doesn’t like good cheesecake and blintzes?

RABBI JOSH FRANKLIN RABBI DAN GEFFEN

TIKKUN LEIL SHAVUOT


TROUBLING JEWISH TEXTS AND HOW TO UNDERSTAND THEM
SUNDAY, MAY 16 | 7:30pm

Adas Israel) for a night of learning. They will together explore the texts of our tradition
that most people shy away from because they’re troubling, anachronistic, and offensive.
We’ll make meaning out of troubling texts as opposed to simply rejecting them.

SHAVUOT MORNING SERVICE WITH YIZKOR

and the Reaffirmation of our personal commitment to Torah
and recitation of Yizkor memorial prayers.

MUSSAR
A PRACTICE OF SHAPING OUR HOLY VIRTUES
WITH RABBI JOSHUA FRANKLIN
MONDAYS | 5:00pm | EXTENDED THROUGH MAY 17!
The word “Mussar” translates into “correction” “instruction,” or “ethics;” but Mussar as a practice
describes a movement of self betterment through the development of holy Jewish virtues. Come
explore one value (middah) at a time with Rabbi Josh Franklin, as we unpack ideas such as humility
(anavah), wisdom (chochmah), generosity (n’divut), compassion (rachamim), and trust (bitachon).
Mussar is not Jewish self-help. Its purpose rather is to elevate holiness in each individual.

This event will be held on Zoom. Please visit jcoh.org/mussar to join.

SHTISEL SEASON 3 DISCUSSION GROUP | THURSDAYS | 5:30pm | APRIL 8–MAY 13


with Rabbi Joshua Franklin

a fictional Haredi Jewish (ultra-Orthodox Jewish) family living in Geula, Jerusalem. Participants can
watch the series on Netflix starting on March 28. Each of the nine sessions will explore an episode
from the newest season of the show. Issues such as Jewish identity, Israeli culture, living as an
Orthodox Jew, and more will be explored during the conversation.
This event will be held on Zoom. Please visit jcoh.org/shtisel to register.
