A lot of Jews are barely aware Rosh Hashana, the Jewish new year, begins Monday night. "Most American Jews are so ill-educated, they think Rosh Hashana is a party," Roger Bennett, senior vice president of the Andrea and Charles Bronfman Philanthropies - a heavy hitter in the world of American Judaism - told me. "It actually is a time to begin reflecting on your sins. Mr. Bennett, a young guy with a British accent, helps locate organizations that are thinking outside the box in terms of getting Jews to act like, well, Jews. We talked about how my recent book on the post-church Christian relates to his work on the unchurched (his wording) Jew.

The only one I didn't hear from this past Hanukkah holiday was Bernie Madoff, but that's probably because I haven't got the minimum $10 million to invest - all my money is currently tied up in bills - and he proba- bly has other things on his conniving mind. Ezra Merkin, a pro- minent Wall Street fund manager, played a leading role in overseeing Yeshiva University's investment portfolio. He had $110 mil- lion of YU's endowment invested with his Ascot Partners, which he put in Madoff's fund, appar- ently telling no one at YU, according to the New York Jewish Week. SOME decry the emphasis on Madoff's religion, but that's reality-he particularly preyed on Jewish institutions and wealthy donors in the boardrooms, s h u 1 s and country clubs who lusted after his high returns and didn't wa...

Triple Negatives for Pro-Israel Lobby Indeed, in an article in the Sept./Oct. 2007 issue of Tikkun, Rabbi Michael Lerner argued that the pro-Israel lobby-that constellation of organizations including the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations and a host of others-is "Bad for the United States, bad for Israel, and bad for the Jews." It is bad for the U.S. he argued, because "The Israel lobby identifies the best interests of the U.S. with those of the Israeli right-wing, and that right wing engages in activities against the Palestinian people in particular and against neighboring states, which have inflamed global public opinion not only against Israel but against the U.S." It is bad for Israel, he continued, ...

The crowd at Chana Rothman's show at Mo Pitkin's House of Satisfaction last August was young and Jewish. As is Rothman herself, who describes her music as "an urban-influenced take reggae, pop, funk on Jewish teachings. Anyone who's heard Hasidic reggae phenom Matisyahu on Top 40 radio knows something big is brewing in the world of Jewish music: It's become a cultural touchstone for young Jews with little religious education or identity.

NEW YORK - According to the 12th-century Jewish philosopher Maimonides, one of the highest categories of philanthropy is giving so the recipient doesn't know the donor, and the donor doesn't know the recipient. On Tuesday, about three dozen of the biggest Jewish foundations in the country convened an emergency meeting to come up with a plan to anonymously help the Jewish nonprofits that fell victim to a $50 billion Ponzi scheme that Wall Street trader Bernard L. Madoff is charged with operating, and to try to restore the community's faith in its values, said organizers of the meeting.

With the arrival of my third grandchild, I find myself reflecting on the family our Abby is joining, the values that are important to us, and what kind of legacy we want to pass on to her, along with brothers Charlie and Thomas. Fortunately, I discovered The Grandparent Legacy Project, a new book that says legacies consisting of stories, values, and life lessons -- not money -- are the most valuable gifts that grandparents can pass on to future generations. The Grandparent Legacy Project features 15 interviews with grandparents from wealthy families and lays out recommendations and workbook tools for grandparents, parents, and grandchildren who want to explore their families' philanthropic legacies.
