Jewish Studies

Jewish mysticism is quite popular by way of books, lectures, and classes to teach this esoteric subject. The student suddenly confronts a world with a unique language and great masters who use obscure language so that the concepts are confusing amidst the different schools of Kabalistic thought and traditions. Prior to 1700, all such teaching was done from master to student, with intentional obscurities so that the student today faces many challenges in comprehending this discipline. This review, quoting from original sources, is designed to provide a basic and foundational structure from which the student can appreciate both the 'why' of Kabbalism and the 'how' they got there. The premise i...

This book describes my experiences being subjected to and living with abuse during my childhood and early adult years in the Lubavitch-Chabad community, in Brooklyn, New York. I discuss the effects this physical, emotional and psychological abuse had on my development and life, which resulted in my leaving this community and lifestyle. When I grew up in this community, the topic of abuse was either denied, or spoken about in whispers. Generally, even if abuse of a child was known, it was not reported to law enforcement, and the child was not protected from further abuse. The topic of reporting such crimes to the law enforcement authorities, for eventual criminal prosecution, is referred to a...

Napoleon, the French Emperor, invaded Czarist Russia in the Franco-Russian War of 1812. The war ended in defeat for the French, with the Russians, referring to this as the Patriotic War, emerged victorious. Napoleon was in the process of liberating Jews from their enforced living in European ghettos, intending to emancipate and integrate them into modern French society. Emancipation of the Jews was a key byword, and many Jews hailed Napoleon as their benefactor and savior. To achieve fullest integration, Napoleon created a modern version of the Jewish Supreme Court, the Great Sanhedrin, to answer questions regarding Jewish belief, laws and their ability as well as intention to integrate into...

Volume Two continues the vignettes of my time in the chaplaincy of the United States Armed Forces. In this volume, I review how two Roman Catholic priests were relieved of their ecclesiastical and religious duties at the United States Air Force Academy. The first of these was detailed in the Colorado Springs and Denver media, with extensive coverage of the drama of a sexual liaison between the Deputy Wing Chaplain and an Air Force line officer, whose relationship began while the woman was an Air Force cadet. I also describe how two die-hard anti-Semites, one of whom was a retired Air Force colonel, never ceased in their efforts to have me removed from a leadership position, and by extension,...

Unlike other Central or South American countries, Brazil is the only country that speaks Portuguese. In the late 15th century, Spain and Portugal divided the world and signed the Treaty of Tordesillas to formalize their intended world conquests. This was the Age of Discovery, when men of resolve and courage sought fame and fortune by conquering the rest of the world. Portuguese sailors came to Brazil, claiming the territory for their monarch. Soon, other European powers realized the importance of this land and sought to remove the Portuguese. An example was the Dutch who conquered a part of Brazil for a few short years. However, the Portuguese soon returned and the Dutch were forced to relin...

Near the close of my 28-years of service in the United States military, as a Jewish Chaplain, and while on active duty with the United States Air Force, I received deployment orders to the Middle East, Central Asia, and Africa. These orders followed the 11 September 2001 attack on the United States. In response, the United States launched two simultaneous wars, one in Iraq, termed Operation Iraqi Freedom. The second was termed Operation Enduring Freedom and was in Afghanistan. At the time, I was given exceptional orders – to travel to these two war zones, to include the satellite countries which had American and Coalition military forces, organize and lead the Jewish personnel, and train a...

Sam Dreben came to the United States penniless, with very few skills. Shortly after he arrived, he enlisted in the United States Army, soon seeing action in the Philippines. He excelled as a machine gunner, with claims he could shoot the left eye of a sparrow at a great distance. He settled in El Paso Texas, and from there reenlisted several times, and with each military action, his fame and courtly manner won him acclaim and prowess. During World War One, he saw action in Europe, first in France and later in Germany. The citation for his bravery for saving the French line from a flanking maneuver reflects incredible bravery under fire. A grateful France awarded him the Medaille Militaire, i...

These three modules are designed to assist both the sponsor and the clinical investigator in conducting professional investigational trials for biomedical devices. The US Food & Drug Administration has a specific Center for all bio-medical devices, with regulations and numerous guidance documents to assist the industry and investigators in the requirements for such trials. Bio-medical devices, their regulations, and requirements are perhaps the most complex and difficult to grasp for the new sponsor or clinical investigator. The regulatory nuances, frequently based on historic anomalies, drive the current regulatory process and those involved in such trials must be trained in these different...

Although tiny in comparison with other European countries, Albania looms large in terms of its people, culture and history. Blessed by an abundance of natural resources, together with the resourcefulness of its people, it stands strong in the face of much larger countries that have tried to control it and subjugate its people. In the face of overwhelming odds, Albania stood firm, refusing to be subdued to others despite that dominant country remaining on its soil for centuries. Descendants from the ancient Illyrians, a relatively unknown group, together with an obscure language unlike any other in Europe, its people are a mystery and a conundrum in the face of larger and more powerful countr...
