Rabbi Goldberg

In this week's Mishpacha, Rabbi Efrem Goldberg, issues a personal and pained call for change:

It’s a time-honored part of the shidduch process to investigate a prospect’s personality, family background, and history before meeting in person.

But over the years, the “information gathering” has taken new, disturbing proportions. Attempts to clarify relevant information have morphed into efforts to hunt down the slightest flaw or blemish. And along the way, we’ve transformed the shidduch process from a journey of discovery to a skewed funhouse mirror that denies one side’s shortcomings or struggles while magnifying those of others to grotesque proportions.

The more difficult we make the shidduch system, the more unnecessary layers and demands we add, the more foreboding it becomes. Not only will potential shadchanim think twice before venturing in; our single children, relatives, and friends will remain waiting.

What is going on in the shidduch world? How did we get here? And more importantly, what can we do about it?

The Miracles Keep Coming

Last Succos, we featured the miraculous story of Baby Eliana (now Chana) Cohen, who'd received a revolutionary drug to treat her rare disease, following an unprecedented display of unity and caring by the Jewish community, who came through with the funding in a matter of days before the deadline.

A year later, we checked in with her parents, Ariel and Shani, for an update — and received a recap on a year of prayers, progress, tears, and stubborn hope for their miracle child.

For Nissim Black, battling COVID-19 clarified something he’s been struggling with for years.

“From the time I began studying about Judaism, I’d been trying to come to terms with how to integrate my music with my spiritual aspirations. When I was lying there, unsure if I’d get out alive, I told Hashem, ‘If I’m outta here, the whole world’s gonna know Your Name!’”

The picture of the man in the white coat is my maternal grandfather, and I am proud. Proud of his legacy, and proud that this image — of a man who served others, and “the other” — is ingrained in the consciousness of my children as well.

Coming in this week's Hebrew edition of Mishpacha magazine!
More than 30 years ago, Menorah Park's very own Rabbi Kirsch, alongside Rabbi Yisroel Greenwald created the Purim Story, a kids’ album of song and humor. Recently, the national Orthodox magazine, Mishpacha featured an article reminiscing about the making of their album and looking back many years later.

B'nai B'rith CEO Dan Mariaschin, who has been active and vocal in opposition to the JCPOA, spoke with Mishpacha about the "other options" the U.S. administration could use to pressure the Iranian regime – in addition to sanctions already imposed on Tehran.

“It’s long past time for the international community to stop treating Iran as a credible negotiating partner and to begin calling it out for the dangerous, rogue outlier it is.”
