PARSHA PUZZLE:
In Sefer
Devarim, Moshe speaks to every Jew,
Known as
Mishna Torah - repetition or review.
Going
through the journey, 39 years in the midbar,
The miracles
that happened, how they came this far.
Moshe told
Bnei Yisrael the words of Hashem,
According to
all that He commanded him.
The journey
had a purpose, they had to understand,
Hashem wanted
them to own His promised land.
We should be reminded of the miracles that were done,
And remember that Hashem is the only One.
Moshe
discussed the desert, each place he did describe,
and how the people chose a judge for
every tribe.
Moshe
reviewed Chet meraglim he spoke to them and cried,
He gave Bnei
Yisrael rebuke, before he died.
What date is
it written that Moshe gathered everyone?
Go look in a
Chumash, when you find it you are done!
Answer: The first day of the 11th
month- Aleph Shvat.
PLAYING WITH THE PARSHA:
This week’s
Parsha talks about the sin of the Meraglim (spies.) Moshe recounts the tragic episode in detail.
He reminds Bnei Yisrael how the Meraglim claimed that it would be impossible
for them to conquer the nations in Eretz Canaan. Even
though Moshe protested, the Bnei Yisrael were afraid to enter Canaan. As a
result, Hashem did not allow that entire generation to enter the land.
We have to
be careful with our words and what we say.
Go around the Shabbat table and start a story. No one is allowed to use the letter s in the
story. See how difficult it is to say a
sentence without using the letter ‘s’.
After everyone finished asked how they felt. It is not always easy to guard our tongue,
but we must work very hard and try to think before we speak!
In this week’s parshah (44:1) Moshe talks about the Amorim
who chased the Bnei Yisrael like bees.
In Taamei Mesoret Hamikra, Rav
Yehuda Hachassid writes that devarim, words, sound similar to dvorim,
bees. The words of the Torah are like bees. To those who accept it, it will be
as sweet as honey, and to those who refuse it, it will be harsh like a sting.
Let’s make BEEautiful Bee cookies. It will BEE the sweetest dessert!
You will need:
2 cups peanut butter
¼ cup margarine
2 cups powdered sugar
3 cups crushed cookies
½ cup chocolate chips
1/4 teaspoon oil
Sliced almonds
Combine the peanut butter and margarine in a bowl. Beat until creamy. Add powdered sugar. Beat until well mixed. Stir in crushed cookies by hand. Shape rounded teaspoonfuls into ovals. You can wet your hands to make it easier to
shape. Place onto waxed paper.
Combine the chocolate chips and oil in a microwavable bowl. Microwave for 50 seconds, remove and
stir. Continue microwaving for 10
seconds until chocolate is smooth.
Pour the chocolate into a small plastic bag. Cut a small tip from the corner.
For each bee, squeeze 3 stripes of chocolate over each oval. Insert slivered almonds on each side for the
wings. Add chocolate chips for the eyes.
Refrigerate- no need to bake!
Enjoy! Have a great Shabbat!
Hope you have an easy and meaningful fast.
May we be zoche to see the building of the Bet Hamikdash speedily in our days. Ruchie
