Honor Thy Parents vs. Honor Thy Children: Who Owes What to Whom?

Are there limits to the responsibility that children have toward parents or that parents have toward children? How and when is taking care of yourself more

important than your responsibility to an elderly parent or an adult child? How and when should an adult child intervene in the affairs of an elderly parent?

Iron is mentioned three times: (1) The stones of an altar cannot be cut with iron (Deut. 27:5). (2) The rebuke states that the Land of Israel will be as iron

(28:23). (3) The rebuke also states that enemies will place an iron yoke around the neck of the Jews (28:48).

ParshaPuzzlerAnswer:One of the first encampments in the desert is called Eilim, which

had 70 date-palm trees (Numbers 33:9).

Are you traveling over the summer or fall? Save those small-size toiletries and bring them to the Program office for the

Chanukah Mitzvah Gift Bags Nursing Home Project. Also, if you can sew a few bags, they can be delivered to your home

and picked up when ready. It's straight-line stitching on fabric, nothing fancy. Please contact Sheryl Staren at:

brent7906@aol.com for more information. Thanks for your support!

High Holy Days Are Coming!! Remember to return your ticket packet to the synagogue office to ensure your seats for the

upcoming New Year! For more information, contact the synagogue office.
