The Parasha of Pinchas starts with: And
Hashem spoke to Moshe saying: Pinchas ben
Elazar ben Aharn Hakohen , turned my anger
away from Bnei Yisrael (25.10-11)
At the end of last weeks Parasha,
Pinchas comes forward to honour Hashems
name and because of that the terrible plague that
was happening in Bnei Yisraels camp stopped.
There are only five Parashiot in the Torah
that have the name of a person, and each teaches
us a very important lesson about that person. It is
interesting that this week the Parasha is named
Pinchas who was a very great tzadik while the
Parasha right before this is called Balak, after
the king of Moav who was not a very nice man.
There has to be something significant that we
can learn by comparing these two men.
When Balak sensed that the Jewish
people were threatening his nation he didnt
spring into action, but rather he hired other
people (Bilam) to try and stop them, he did not
take action himself.
On the opposite side; Pinchas was a doer.
When there was a call for action, he immediately
stepped in to do what had to be doen. He didnt
wait for someone else to come along and try to
do it for him, he felt responsible.
Pinchas personafied what Hillel teaches
in Pirkei Avot; Perek Bet, Mishana Hey - In a
situation where there are no leaders, try to be a
leader.
What another amazing week at Camp
Ilan. The fun didn't stop this week, not even the
rain could bring us down. With our campers
participating in cupcake wars, Camp Ilans annual
All Star Game, an amazing trip to Arbraska, and
being visited by some amazing reptiles with
Reptizoo, we just left everyday with a HUGE smile.
This week we focused on the theme of Jewish
identity. We learned about some amazingly
important role models and heroes in Jewish
history like Ilan Ramon and our parents. We talked
and learned with one another how important our
Jewish identity is, no matter where we are, camp,
synagogue, or even the basketball court.
I am looking forward to another fun packed week
at Camp Ilan.
Shabbat Shalom

After two amazing weeks of Camp Ilan, we still managed to make every day unique and
exciting in the Shorashim bunk! The campers had their very own scavenger hunt and
special art project. We ran around different parks playing sports and splashing in the
sprinklers with smiles on our faces. We finished off the week with a visit from snakes,
turtles, and lizards, as well as free swim in the pool! We are all looking forward to the
next month of camp and cant wait to see whats in store!!
