Professor Juni introduces his work in Chronic Crisis Theory in prolonged emergency states, delineating salient external coping methods and internal defenses. He stresses the positive features of suppression as a stop-gap measure. Dr. Juni illustrates his theory with clinical examples from a variety of protracted family and social challenges. Rabbi Kivelevitz extends this perspective to champion the value of periodic respite for families of chronic medical patients to recalibrate a sense of sanity. In a parallel analysis, Juni analyzes the idiosyncratic Israeli personality and associated mores and interpersonal styles, portraying the typical Sabra as living in a pressure cooker of constant vigilance which erodes the human fabric. Kivelevitz presents the Talmudic prescription to crisis management –immersion in study and scholarship as a lifeline of distancing emotionally from overpowering environmental stressors, as he formulates less parochial positive experiential adaptations from the lens of self-empowerment taught by the late Rabbi Jonathan Sacks.Doctor Samuel Juniis one of the foremost research psychologists in the world today.He has published groundbreaking original research in seventy different peer reviewed journals, and is cited continuously with respect by colleagues and experts in the field who have built on his theories and observations.Samuel Juni studied inYeshivas Chaim Berlinunder Rav Yitzchack Hutner, and in Yeshiva University as aTalmidof Rav Joseph Dov Soloveitchick.ProfessorJuni is a prominent member of theAssociation of Orthodox Jewish Scientists, and has regularly presented addresses to captivated audiences.Associated with NYU since 1979,Juni has served as Director of MA and PhD programs, all the while heading teams engaged in important research.Professor Juni's scholarship on aberrant behavior across the cultural, ethnic, and religious spectrum is founded onpsychometric methodologyand based on a psycho-dynamicpsychopathologyperspective.He is arguably the preeminent expert inDifferential Diagnostics, with each of his myriad studiesentailing parallel efforts in theory construction and empirical data collection from normative and clinical populations.Professor Juni created and directed NYU's Graduate Program in Tel Aviv titledCross-Cultural Group Dynamics in Stressful Environments.Based inYerushalayim, he collaborates with Israeli academic and mental health specialists in the study of dissonant factors and tensions in the Arab-Israeli conflict and those within the Orthodox Jewish community, while exploring personality challenges of second-generation Holocaust survivors.Below is a partial list of the journalsto which Professor Juni has contributed over 120 articles.Many are available on lineJournal of Forensic PsychologyJournal of Aggression, Maltreatment, and Trauma.International Review of VictimologyThe Journal of Nervous and Mental DiseaseInternational Forum of PsychoanalysisJournal of Personality AssessmentJournal of Abnormal PsychologyJournal of Psychoanalytic AnthropologyPsychophysiologyPsychology and Human DevelopmentJournal of Sex ResearchJournal of Psychology and JudaismContemporary Family TherapyAmerican Journal on AddictionsJournal of Criminal PsychologyMental Health, Religion & CultureAs Rosh Beis Medrash, Rabbi Avraham Kivelevitz serves asRavandPosekfor the morningminyanat IDT.Hundreds of listeners around the globe look forward to his weeklyShiurinTshuvos and Poskim.Rav Kivelevitz is aMaggid ShiurforDirshu Internationalin Talmud and Halacha as well as a Dayan with theBeth Din of America.Please leave us a review or email us at [email protected] more information on this podcast visityeshivaofnewark.jewishpodcasts.org See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

AShiurthat mines ancient texts for illuminating new understanding and relevance!The following is a letter from Rabbi Kivelevitz .Shalom Ubracha-It is quite unnecessaryto state here how stressful the last few months have been.AsKlal Yisroel places an immeasurable value on learning and intellectual growth, many of us have weathered this storm by entrenching ourselves deeper into our rich literary heritage, discovering insight and inspiration and using the pause of hustle bustle activity to savor new texts and articulate probing questions. The tools of teleconferencing have generated thebrachaof wide attendance inShiurimand access to the world's finest Torah teachers. Energized by these positives, I am humbly offering to partner with all of you on a venture of discovery.Over twenty-five years ago, I listenedwith rapt attention as Professor Haym Soloveichick eulogized his father. He said theRambam,Maimonides, was theGirsa DaYankusaof his father, which the prodigygrew up memorizing like nursery rhymes, with all ofMishna Torahetched in his memory and flowing easily from his lip.However,it wasin that otherMoshe, Nachmanides,that the elder Soloveichickdiscovered his intellectual approach and soul.It can be assumed that Rav Soloveichick's flowering as the premier Talmudist of our times was built in great part by contrasting the words of each of these Medieval teachers in areas they had both worked on, or whereRambanlevels his often withering criticism ofRambam's position.There are scores of examples throughout Shas,and in particular in the work Nachmanides dedicated to staking his disagreements with his Egyptian counterpart-Hasagosto theRambam'sSefer HaMitzvos.In his classic toweringPerushonChumash,Rambanforcefully attacks many ofRambam's explanations ofmitzvosand interpretations of biblical events.In the coming weeks, we can together discover anew these diamond like gems ofcodification, inquiry analysis and poetic barbsthat issued from these giants.....-armed with the salient texts, and buoyed by an enthusiasm to discover, I relish the prospect of learning with you.

In a signing ceremony in Yerushalayim two weeks ago of the World Zionist Organization,a coalition that included the Orthodox Union, Yeshiva University, Touro College, Bnei Akiva, AMIT, the RCA, the National Council of Young Israel and Torah Mitzion resulted in Yaakov Hagoel, being named the organization's first religious Jew to serve as the Chairman of the Executive. The agreement signed distributed control over Zionist institutions and departments to a wide range of Jewish organizations and factions, from Orthodox to Reform and from Right to Left.This prompted Agudath Israel to issue a "Statement on Charedi Principles" explaining why they did not join and claiming that those who did were acquiescing to the dogmatic statements that were part of the The Jerusalem Program's foundations of Zionism which are:"Zionism is the national liberation movement of the Jewish people, it brought about the establishment of the State of Israel,and a Jewish, Zionist, democratic and secure State of Israel is the common responsibility of the Jewish people for its continuity and future.The State of Israel and Jerusalem, its capital, is central in the life of our nation.Aliyah to Israel from all countries and the effective integration of all immigrants into Israeli society is a goal we must work for.Strengthening Israel as a Jewish, Zionist and democratic state and shaping it as an exemplary society with a unique moral and spiritual character, marked by mutual respect for the multi-faceted Jewish people, needs to be inculcated to our children as something to constantly strive for.Eretz Yisroel's destiny is rooted in the vision of the prophets, striving for peace and contributing to the betterment of the world.We will ensure the future and the distinctiveness of the Jewish people by furthering Jewish, Hebrew and Zionist education, fostering spiritual and cultural values and teaching Hebrew as the national language;Despite being geographically spread throughout the world,we will nurture mutual Jewish responsibility, defend the rights of Jews as individuals and as a nation, and represent the national Zionist interests of the Jewish people, and struggle against all manifestations of anti-Semitism.We will do all in our power to further thesettling of the country as an expression of practical Zionism."The Agudah deems these ideas,which give such prominence to statehood as a rejection of Torah as the major factor that defines our people and in essence condemned persons identifying as Charedi for joining the group. Rabbi Bechhofer takes exception with the conflation of Charedi and the Bnei Torah of America.Rabbi Kivelevitz feels that the chance to bond with one voice in a time of world crisis should be a benefit that trumps any suggestion that there has been an abdication of principle as the platform is secondary to the benefits to Torah institutions that will ensue.Kivelevitz and Bechoffer both believe that issues in Eretz Yisroel need to be put on the back burner when so much tummult exists in America which Agudah can address together with other Orthodox mosdos.Rabbi Kivelevitz offers thoughts on the passing of Rav Dovid Feinstein Zt"l and Rabbi Jonathan Sacks,Z"lwhile Rabbi Bechhofer criticizes those who davened fervently for Donald Trump's re-election,and Rabbi Kivelevitz urges all Jewish organizations to warmly congratulate Joe Biden on his victory. a certain party identifying itself as representing Chareidi Jews has the authority to sign a coalition agreement within the World Zionist Congress together with other Jewish parties including non-Orthodox religious groups, as happened last weekThe Jerusalem Program states that:Zionism, the national liberation movement of the Jewish people, brought about the establishment of the State of Israel, and views a Jewish, Zionist, democratic and secure State of Israel to be the expression of the common responsibility of the Jewish people for its continuity and future.The Jerusalem Program's foundations of Zionism are:The unity of the Jewish people, its bond to its historic homeland Eretz Yisrael, and the centrality of the State of Israel and Jerusalem, its capital, in the life of the nation;Aliyah to Israel from all countries and the effective integration of all immigrants into Israeli society.Strengthening Israel as a Jewish, Zionist and democratic state and shaping it as an exemplary society with a unique moral and spiritual character, marked by mutual respect for the multi-faceted Jewish people, rooted in the vision of the prophets, striving for peace and contributing to the betterment of the world.Ensuring the future and the distinctiveness of the Jewish people by furthering Jewish, Hebrew and Zionist education, fostering spiritual and cultural values and teaching Hebrew as the national language;Nurturing mutual Jewish responsibility, defending the rights of Jews as individuals and as a nation, representing the national Zionist interests of the Jewish people, and struggling against all mani

Rabbi Dovid Weiss presents a Shiur that deconstructs the Halachic underpinnings of the Akeidah in light of a number of Talmudic passages and filters the ideas through the principles of the great Chasidic thinkers with a result that powerfully directs every Jew in his striving for becoming a Servant of God.Please leave us a review or email us at [email protected] more information on this podcast visityeshivaofnewark.jewishpodcasts.org See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The share of 18- to 29-year-olds living with their parents has become a majority since U.S. coronavirus cases began spreading early this year, surpassing the previous peak during the Great Depression era.Beginning with the postulate that children are destined to leave their parents as a means of establishing their own identity, Dr. Juni argues from a psychology perspective that adultsshould notbe living with parents.Rabbi Kivelevitz weighs in from the vantage of his studies in sociology, and engages the professor to remark on cultures wherethe norms and customs foster a life long bond with parents that is predicated on living in very close proximity with them.Citing basic principles of Developmental Psychology, Dr. Juni outlines the elements of adolescent rebellion against the parental figures ( frustration, anger, resentment), and while they appear to present as forces of negativity, Juni asserts that they are in actuality part of the healthy process of maturation.The professor concedes to the Rabbi that the challenge to parental and cultural rules and mores, and outright critique of religious values increases tension and strife in families.Kivelevitz notes that Rabbinic Literature seems very aware of these issues and sketches the evolution in Halacha on using corporal punishment towards children as a method of guidance.From the Talmud through mediaeval times, beating a child, even one whose behavior wascommendablewas seen as acharacterbuilder.It was only during the period of the European Enlightenment that thenormative stance began todissuadeparents and teachers from employing the rod.Juni counters that it was replaced with verbal shaming and abuse that could leave even deeper scars.Returning to the doctor's central thesis,the Rabbiquotes Pirkei Avosto underscore that at some point disconnection from the home and the difficulties that follow in its wake, are part of priming the child to deal with life’s expected challenges.Kivelevitz continues to insist, however, that outright enmity toward parents is not necessary for healthy development.Juni takes the fatalist position that resentment toward parents is inevitable regardless of how supportive a parent may be. He warns against allowing children full leeway, citing cases from his own practice where those raised with excesspermissiveness suffered in regular social settings.Rabbi Kivelevitz stresses the importance of carving out personal space in these anxious times for children and other family members who find themselves living together.Doctor Samuel Juniis one of the foremost research psychologists in the world today.He has published groundbreaking original research in seventy different peer reviewed journals, and is cited continuously with respect by colleagues and experts in the field who have built on his theories and observations.Samuel Juni studied inYeshivas Chaim Berlinunder Rav Yitzchack Hutner, and in Yeshiva University as aTalmidof Rav Joseph Dov Soloveitchick.ProfessorJuni is a prominent member of theAssociation of Orthodox Jewish Scientists, and has regularly presented addresses to captivated audiences.Associated with NYU since 1979,Juni has served as Director of MA and PhD programs, all the while heading teams engaged in important research.Professor Juni's scholarship on aberrant behavior across the cultural, ethnic, and religious spectrum is founded onpsychometric methodologyand based on a psycho-dynamicpsychopathologyperspective.He is arguably the preeminent expert inDifferential Diagnostics, with each of his myriad studiesentailing parallel efforts in theory construction and empirical data collection from normative and clinical populations.Professor Juni created and directed NYU's Graduate Program in Tel Aviv titledCross-Cultural Group Dynamics in Stressful Environments.Based inYerushalayim, he collaborates with Israeli academic and mental health specialists in the study of dissonant factors and tensions in the Arab-Israeli conflict and those within the Orthodox Jewish community, while exploring personality challenges of second-generation Holocaust survivors.Below is a partial list of the journalsto which Professor Juni has contributed over 120 articles.Many are available on lineJournal of Forensic PsychologyJournal of Aggression, Maltreatment, and Trauma.International Review of VictimologyThe Journal of Nervous and Mental DiseaseInternational Forum of PsychoanalysisJournal of Personality AssessmentJournal of Abnormal PsychologyJournal of Psychoanalytic AnthropologyPsychophysiologyPsychology and Human DevelopmentJournal of Sex ResearchJournal of Psychology and JudaismContemporary Family TherapyAmerican Journal on AddictionsJournal of Criminal PsychologyMental Health, Religion & CultureAs Rosh Beis Medrash, Rabbi Avraham Kivelevitz serves asRavandPosekfo

Rabbi Kivelevitz leads a ZOOM Shiur that highlights numerous decisions handed down by this important leader in Halacha and Hanhagah.The selections bring to life the situations common in New York and provide a glimpse of how the Halachic mind works to solve problems. Rav Zachariah Gelley –mara dasraof K’hal Adath Jeshurun (“Breuer’s”) in Washington Heights Rav Gelley was born in 1932 in Topolcany, Slovakia (near Bratislava) a descendent of the Chacham Tzvi and Panim Meiros. Zachariah was deported to Bergen Belsen in 1944 and managed to survive, often hiding in dirty latrines to avoid the “selections.” After the war, 13-year-old Zachariah was sent to England to Yeshivas Shaires HaPleitah Netzach Yisroel, which had been founded exclusively for refugee boys in Sunderland, England.At 21, R. Gelley transferred to the famed Gateshead Yeshivah, and two years later, he was accepted into Gateshead’s Kollel Harabbonim where he studied for 12 years. In 1965, Rav Gelley was invited by his alma mater, Nezach Yisroel to becomerosh yeshiva. Many of histalmidimcame from theEdot Hamizrachcommunities in North Africa. In 1987 Rav Gelley’s was invited to join the rabbinate of Khal Adath Jeshurun (KAJ) in Washington Heights.For close to thirty years,Rav Gelley was the hands on leader of this community,and established himself as a major Posek and Dayan.

AShiurthat mines ancient texts for illuminating new understanding and relevance!The following is a letter from Rabbi Kivelevitz .Shalom Ubracha-It is quite unnecessaryto state here how stressful the last few months have been.AsKlal Yisroel places an immeasurable value on learning and intellectual growth, many of us have weathered this storm by entrenching ourselves deeper into our rich literary heritage, discovering insight and inspiration and using the pause of hustle bustle activity to savor new texts and articulate probing questions. The tools of teleconferencing have generated thebrachaof wide attendance inShiurimand access to the world's finest Torah teachers. Energized by these positives, I am humbly offering to partner with all of you on a venture of discovery.Over twenty-five years ago, I listenedwith rapt attention as Professor Haym Soloveichick eulogized his father. He said theRambam,Maimonides, was theGirsa DaYankusaof his father, which the prodigygrew up memorizing like nursery rhymes, with all ofMishna Torahetched in his memory and flowing easily from his lip.However,it wasin that otherMoshe, Nachmanides,that the elder Soloveichickdiscovered his intellectual approach and soul.It can be assumed that Rav Soloveichick's flowering as the premier Talmudist of our times was built in great part by contrasting the words of each of these Medieval teachers in areas they had both worked on, or whereRambanlevels his often withering criticism ofRambam's position.There are scores of examples throughout Shas,and in particular in the work Nachmanides dedicated to staking his disagreements with his Egyptian counterpart-Hasagosto theRambam'sSefer HaMitzvos.In his classic toweringPerushonChumash,Rambanforcefully attacks many ofRambam's explanations ofmitzvosand interpretations of biblical events.In the coming weeks, we can together discover anew these diamond like gems ofcodification, inquiry analysis and poetic barbsthat issued from these giants.....-armed with the salient texts, and buoyed by an enthusiasm to discover, I relish the prospect of learning with you.

The Rabbis deal with navigating the fear of death during the Pandemic ,and in general in life.Rabbi Bechhofer quotes Rav Yisroel Salanter's sage words(actually echoing Socrates) to the Alter of Novardok, while Rabbi Kivelevitz extols the nobility of the many persons he has known who have faced their mortality in exemplary fashion.They then call in Rabbi Bechhofer's wife,Shani, to discuss her article in the Jewish Press advocating strongly for mask wearing. She uses Rischa's forum to expand on some points and to respond to the arguments of Rabbi Michoel Green who sees the Mask Mandates as part of "An Anti-Jewish assault".Kivelevitz ridicules most of the spurious contentions Green offers, with Rebbetzin Bechhofer paying him a few backhanded compliments for ingenuity.

The renowned educator and Principal ofSAR High SchoolRabbi Jonathan Kroll and Rabbi Kivelevitz discuss what the special Election day programming at the school, and what has been done to promote better citizenship and speak honestly about divergent opinions.Below is a letter Rabbi Kroll and his administration sent out to parents :Teaching & Learning in Anticipation of Election Day 2020October 29, 2020Dear Parents,As citizens of the United States, we have the right to vote, to participate in shaping the government and the laws under which we live. And we have the responsibility to participate in political life in a way that respects the diversity of opinions of the citizens of our country. At SAR High School, we are a community of learners united by our commitments to Torah and Modern Orthodoxy, but with different perspectives on how those commitments translate into American politics. We want to prepare our students to be informed and civil participants in national and communal political discourse.We would like to share highlights of what we have been teaching and learning in anticipation ofElection Day 2020, as well as guidance for how to foster reflective conversation with your children.Sincerely,The SAR AdministrationCURRICULAR AND CO-CURRICULAR INITIATIVES:The History Department is preparing all of the students in SAR High School to be informed about some of the key policy stakes of this election, as well as about election procedures. 9th and 10th graders will gain a basic understanding of the differences between the two parties on issues, as well as the mechanics of how a presidential election is run. 11th and 12th graders, with more background in American history, will be able to discuss some of these issues in greater depth. The 12th grade AP US Government and Politics and Values of Citizenship classes will devote additional class time to deeper discussions of this year's election in the broader historical and political context.On Election Day, we will run a schoolwide election, enabling all SAR High School students to cast their ballots for president. We will continue our quadrennial tradition of Return for the Returns, although this year, it will of necessity take place on Zoom. In addition to watching the returns on Zoom together, teachers and some student leaders of the Electoral Politics and Government club will offer short presentations about key issues and races to watch.HOW TO TALK WITH HIGH SCHOOL CHILDREN ABOUT THE ELECTIONParents and teachers are well-equipped to navigate open and objective conversation and grapple with complexity, to help students concentrate on the important issues at play or where our candidates stand on them, and to model respectful disagreement and discourse.Nonetheless, kids are tuned into the current political climate. They are listening in to our conversations and trying to make sense of the ideas they encounter around the table, in the news, and on social media, and they share what they've heard with friends at school, which can often be skewed or flawed. Campaigns fraught with tension can bring up many challenging questions and emotions for children, making our influence as adults all the more important.When discussing the election with your child(ren), please consider the following:Focus on issues—not people, regardless of the candidates you support. This enables children to distinguish between a person's position and the person.Respect differing viewpoints. Let's resist the temptation towards the all-or-nothing discourse so common in American politics now. Model how to listen openly and consider diverse perspectives. Help our children understand that multiple points of view are possible, that not everyone thinks the way they do, and that we can respect another person's right to have an opinion even when disagreeing with them. A worthwhile exercise is to consider the values behind someone's position. You may not share those values, or you may think other ones are more important. But understanding that others' politics emerge from their values helps us engage differently, in a less scorched-earth way.Monitor your messaging. Kids are paying attention. Be conscious of your words and tone when expressing your views on the candidates and their stance on different topics. In a community of diverse political views, our children are learning from our modeling how to engage with people with whom they differ.Encourage deeper understanding. Ask, "What do you think about ___?" What questions do you have?" It's okay to let them know that you don't have all the answers, and to follow up with, "Let's find out," or "Let's think about that together." Often, our children's understanding of the issues of the day is limited to a snippet they saw on social media or a sound byte on the news. Our kids may be really interested in understanding the issues and the debates around them, and we should encourage them to formulate informed, thought-out positions, rather than knee-jerk, ofte
