Economic utopia of the Torah. Economic concepts of the Hebrew Bible interpreted according to the Rabbinical Literature
No full textHebrew Bible offers alternative Economic utopia for building Theocratic society. In this paper, various economic concepts and themes are presented, as found in the Hebrew Bible. These economic concepts include taxation, property rights, labor market, social policy, banking, years of Sabbath and Jubilee, and business cycles. Most economic issues of the Bible are found in the texts of Torah, also known as five Books of Moses. These texts are analyzed by using classical Rabbinical commentaries for better insight. Contrary to the modern Economic theory which is based on the assumptions of scarcity of resources and unlimited needs of consumers, Economics of the Torah is based on God’s resources which are enough for all true needs of His people.Hebrew Bible, History of Economics, History of Economic Thought, Ancient Israel, Judaism
"Sefer beer Moshe" by Moshe Sertels, son of Isachar, as an example of a bilingual text for the study of the Torah
No full textMoshe Sertels was a son of Issachar and Sarah. He was born circa mid-16th century in Prague. He was a teacher and worked as a translator and exegete. Sertels wrote several texts that attracted wide interest. One of them was a work titled Sefer Beer Moshe, a bilingual commentary on the Torah and five megillot. The construction of the text, its clarity and intelligibility, made it an excellent tool for teaching the Torah in cheders (e.g. such usage of this text was noted in the books of the Cracovian brotherhood Talmud Torah). The article presents the figure of the author and his literary oeuvre with particular focus on the Sefer Beer Moshe as a work that served generations of Ashkenazi Jews to enhance their knowledge of the Torah. The author discusses characteristics of the text and underlines several issues in regard to the Yiddish language in the form that was used in Prague at the turn of the 17th century

WHO IS RABBI MOSHE \u27YAẔ\u27?
No full textThe name Rabbi Moshe \u27Yaẕ\u27 (י\u27ץ = yishmerehu ẕuro) appears in two letters written, and published, by Rabbi Saul Berlin in 1789 and 1790, respectively, in connection with the Miẕpeh Yoqte\u27el controversy. Accepting the view that Rabbi Moshe is a fictional character, the author suggests the following explanation for the usage of this name: The opening section of the first letter, which has been overlooked by the scholars, provides a clue to the identification. It reads: \u27Moshe Bar \u27Eẕri\u27, a name which appears twice in the Talmud (Baba Batra 174b; Arakhin 23a). The Talmud relates the story of Moshe Bar \u27Eẕri who was the guarantor of his daughter-in-law\u27s Ketubah. His son, Rav Huna, a student, who was pressed hard for money, was unable to implement the advice given him: to divorce his wife so that she should collect money guaranteed by his father, following which they would remarry. Since Rav Huna was a priest, he would not be permitted to remarry his divorcee. The use of the talmudic name is therefore intended to allude to Saul Berlin\u27s special predicament, to the advantages and disadvantages of attempting to secure some assistance from his father, the venerable Ẕevi Hirsch Levin, Rabbi of the Berlin community. Indeed, his father endeavoured to help him, but to no avail. Saul Berlin lost his position as Rabbi in Frankfort, has been considered excommunicated by some, and finally had to go into exile; he died in London shortly after

The quality of the post academic course ‘management of safety, health and environment (MoSHE) of Delft University of Technology
No full textObjective This article discusses the rise of European postgraduate courses in safety science and the content and quality of the Management of Safety Health and Environment (MoSHE) course of Delft University of Technology. Materials and methods Literature search, document analysis, interviews. Results The different MoSHE years show a varied picture of this post academic program. In the Netherlands the course is unique with a central focus on risk management and sustainability, supported by scientific developments in the areas of safety, health, environment, organizational science and psychology. In all year-groups the quality of the course was assessed with a short questionnaire, collecting opinions of course members on individual presentations and the course as a whole. Quality of the course was regularly discussed through the contacts of the course coordinator with module leaders, and at meetings of course committees, and leading to changes in content of modules. After MoSHE 1 (1989), 14 (2008), and 17 (2012) the courses’ structure, organization and content was changed radically. Only, the quality system of the course remained implicit. Using the model of the European Foundation for Quality Management a first set-up for a quality system is presented. Over the years the academic nature of the program has changed substantially. This is one of the challenges for the future to find a balance between the domains taught and between an academic approach and practical skills. The course could benefit from a greater input of process safety and safety in high-tech-high-hazard sectors.Safety and Security Scienc
