_______________________________

While Beth Emeth is working on plans for reopening, the health and well-being of our community come first, and so the process of re-opening will be gradual and deliberate.

Given restrictions for age and health conditions, we, BEBY NEXTgen, will likely have to step it up and be on the front line of re-opening attendance. I will be in touch more as next steps are formalized.

For the official reopening statement, check out the shul website, www.beby.org .

The shul is constantly creating more virtual opportunities for learning, praying and connecting. Check out www.beby.org for a full listing and follow us on Facebookto keep up on everything happening at the Virtual Beth Emeth.

We, both the shul, but also more personally, Shira Rachel and I, are here for you during this COVID-19 experience. Physical and mental health are primary and we need to do everything possible and utilize every resource available to ensure that we stay healthy. Please, do not hesitate to call or email, 24/7, for any reason:

TORAH TALK FOR THE TABLE
with Rabbi David

Shlach Lecha - The Land of Israel

Moshe sends 12 leaders, one from each tribe, to check out the land of Israel. They all come back and say that it is a special place, but 10 add that they are scared of moving there and they don't think they will be able to live with the people there. 2 of the scouts, Yehoshua and Calev say the land is VERY VERY GOOD and we can and should go.

Discussion Questions

What are some things you know about Eretz Yisrael?
Have you been there before? What are your favorite places that you have been (or that you have seen/learned about)?
How do you think life in Israel is different from life in Toronto?

Let me know your answers by emailing rabbidavid@beby.org.

Shabbat Shalom!
