From the electronic keyboard of Rabbi Saks Below are the remarks I delivered at the Delaware Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) ceremony on April 16. The Hebrew word for history is “Historia.” Obviously, this is an English word that has been Hebraized. But this begs the question: why is there no Hebrew word for history? Rabbi Jonathan Sachs observes that the Torah speaks in terms of memory not history. We are not commanded to keep a historical record of the past; rather we are commanded to remember it. This sounds like a matter of mere semantics, but it is not. History is “his story;” it recalls events that affected others. But our past is embedded in our memory; it is our story. We gather here today to ensure that the Holocaust is not treated as mere history but as memory. Why? To remind ourselves that history can repeat itself, if we treat the past as somebody else’s story instead of our own. If you were asked a few years ago if you thought another Holocaust was possible, you very well may have said no. If you were asked that same question today, you may very well have to stop and think about it due to the rapid increase of anti-Semitism around the world and rising threats that confront the Jewish state. Rabbi Jakobovits observes that, when we are told in the Torah that G-d remembers someone, it denotes that we will take future action on their behalf. Our memory of the Holocaust must inspire us to act now and in the future. We remember in order to ensure that “never again” is not just a slogan.

(The intent is not to wrestle here with religious or philosophical issues—we welcome those concerns but there are other venues in which to pursue those questions) . Rather we are reaching out to congregants to identify ways our AKSE community can do more and better to meet your everyday needs. ● Are transportation issues preventing you from attending synagogue events? We may be able to resolve that problem. There are members who might be able to provide transportation. Please call the office at 302 762 2705 or email office@akse.org and explain your situation and or transportation need. We will try and line up someone to help. This is not envisioned as a short notice or immediate problem solution, but rather a foreseen situation, where with phone calls and some planning a solution might be possible. Please let us know if we can help. ● Kesher committee—Do you know this exists? The Kesher Committee consists of AKSE members who willingly give of their time to help other members in need. If an AKSE member needs meals prepared, a ride to an appointment, an errand done, or just a friendly visit, those on the committee are there to help. Debra Zussman is the chairperson and can be reached at (302) 529-1054. If you would like to participate or if you know someone in need of help, please call. ● Communications—Are you receiving: The Shofar—snail mail / email copies, Weekly Newsletter e mail blasts, responses to office queries, event reservation confirmations, contribution confirmations in a satisfactory way? ● Any other thoughts, ideas, questions, suggestions? Jonathan Jaffe AKSE President Yes, you! Please consider sponsoring a Shabbat Kiddush to share fellowship and friendship with your AKSE family and friends. Please call the office at 302 762 2705 or contact Judy Berlin at 302-762-3649 to discuss your special requests.

I was enjoying my favorite police television show, The Blue Bloods, and a word inspired me to find something familiar, but a bit different. Tom Seleck called a dish he did not want to taste because it was "Cheffy". He said it was his description for food that should not be changed because it works the way it was meant to be eaten. I think lox and bagels should never be changed, since that is one of my favorite sandwiches. But, this evening I made it "Cheffy". For Shavuot it might be nice to have a refreshing salad that is veggie packed and makes a change on a brunch classic. This recipe was a winner! We really enjoyed it. Hope you will, too. Bagel & Lox Rigatoni Salad 8 ounces rigatoni pasta 9 ounces green beans, blanched * 1 bagel cut into pieces (little round slices are nice) 1/2 cup white balsamic vinegar 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1/3 cup olive oil 1 red onion, finely copped 1/2 cup drained capers 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, sliced in quarters or bite size balls 6 to 8 ounces smoked salmon (lox), chopped Cook pasta and drain. * I cooked green beans until done, as I do not like them crispy. Toss bagel pieces with 1 Tablespoon olive oil and transfer to a baking pan. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 8 minutes. Cool and set aside. I used an everything bagel for the extra flavors and it was perfect. Whisk vinegar, mustard and 1/3 tsp kosher salt in saucepan. Whisk in 1/2 cup olive oil. Heat over medium heat until just warm, whisking constantly. Remove and stir in onion and capers. (I did not use capers!) Place pasta mixture, lettuce, mozzarella, salmon and bagel pieces in a large bowl. Add vinegar, mixture; gently toss to combine. Top with cracked black pepper, if desired. Makes 6 servings. I have Tom Seleck to thank for daring me to make a change for something different and delicious. This could be our new pasta salad favorite. Thanks and until next time…........
