The Three are Rabbi Yehuda Glick, famous temple mount activist, and former Israel Mk, and then Robert Weinger, the world's greatest shofar blower and seller of Shofars, and myself after we had gone to the 12 gates of the Temple Mount in 2020 to blow the shofar to ask G-d to heal the world from the Pandemic. It was a highlight to my experience in living in Israel and I put it on my blog each day to remember. The articles that I include each day are those that I find interesting, so I feel you will find them interesting as well. I don't always agree with all the points of each article but found them interesting or important to share with you, my readers, and friends. It is cathartic for me to share my thoughts and frustrations with you about life in general and in Israel. As a Rabbi, I try to teach and share the Torah of the G-d of Israel as a modern Orthodox Rabbi. I never intend to offend anyone but sometimes people are offended and I apologize in advance for any mistakes. The most important psychological principle I have learned is that once someone's mind is made up, they don't want to be bothered with the facts, so, like Rabbi Akiva, I drip water (Torah is compared to water) on their made-up minds and hope that some of what I have share sinks in. Love Rabbi Yehuda Lave. |

Jewish Chemist Saved More Lives Than Any Doctor in history (18) Facebook Sir Ernst Boris Chain (19 June 1906 – 12 August 1979)[2] was a German-born British biochemist. He shared the 1945 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Alexander Fleming and Howard Florey "for the discovery of penicillin and its curative effect in various infectious diseases".
Life and career
.
Chain was born to a German-Jewish family in Berlin, the son of Margarete (née Eisner) and Michael Chain, a chemist and industrialist dealing in chemical products. His father was a Russian-Jewish émigré from Mogilev (Russian Empire, now Belarus to study chemistry abroad and his mother was from Berlin. In 1930, he received his degree in chemistry from Friedrich Wilhelm University. He was a lifelong friend of Professor Albert Neuberger, whom he met in Berlin in the 1930s.
After the Nazis came to power, Chain understood that, being Jewish, he would no longer be safe in Germany. He left Germany and moved to England, arriving on 2 April 1933 with £10 in his pocket. Geneticist and physiologist J. B. S. Haldane helped him obtain a position at University College Hospital, London.
After a couple of months he was accepted as a PhD student at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge, where he began working on phospholipids under the direction of Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins. In 1935, he accepted a job at Oxford University as a lecturer in pathology. During this time he worked on a range of research topics, including snake venoms, tumour metabolism, lysozymes, and biochemistry techniques. Chain was naturalised as a British subject in April 1939.
In 1939, he joined Howard Florey to investigate natural antibacterial agents produced by microorganisms. This led him and Florey, with crucial technical help from Norman Heatley, to revisit the work of Alexander Fleming, who had described penicillin nine years earlier. Chain and Florey went on to demonstrate penicillin's therapeutic action and its chemical composition. They discovered how to isolate and concentrate the germ-killing agent in the Penicillium mould. For this research, Chain, Florey, and Fleming received the Nobel Prize in 1945. For his part, Heatley was awarded an honorary Doctorate of Medicine by Oxford University in 1990.
Along with Edward Abraham he was also involved in theorising the beta-lactam structure of penicillin in 1942,[19] which was confirmed by X-ray crystallography done by Dorothy Hodgkin in 1945. Towards the end of World War II, Chain learned his mother and sister had been killed by the Nazis. After World War II, Chain moved to Rome, to work at the Istituto Superiore di Sanità (Superior Institute of Health). He returned to Britain in 1964 as the founder and head of the biochemistry department at Imperial College London, where he stayed until his retirement, specialising in fermentation technologies.[20]
On 17 March 1948 Chain was appointed a Fellow of the Royal Society.
In spite of his successful scientific career and widespread recognition from his Nobel Prize, Chain was for some time barred from entry to the United States under the McCarran Internal Security Act of 1950, being declined a visa on two occasions in 1951.

The Portion of Vayeira The Weapons of the Captain of the Guard
During the course of his travels Abraham reaches the city of Grar. Avimelech, the king of Grar, sends his messengers to Abraham and takes Sarah to his home. G-d appears to Abraham in a dream and warns him not to touch Sarah. As a warning to what will happen if Avimelech does not heed G-d's warning, everyone in Avimelech's household was prevented from child-bearing. Avimelech returns Sarah to Abraham and reimburses him sheep, cattle and servants. Avimelech understands that the Lord stands behind Abraham, so he and Fichol, the captain of his guard, enter into a pact with Abraham in Beer Sheva. What weapons does the Chief of Staff (Captain of the Guard) have at his disposal? In a number of places in the Tanach and the Mishnah we find five types of weapons and military strategy. In the Torah (Exodus, portion of Beshalach, 15;9): The enemy said: 'I will pursue and overtake , I will divide the spoil ; my lust shall be satisfied upon them, I will draw my sword , my hand shall destroy them.' In the Mishnah (Shabbat, chapter 6, Mishnah 4): "A person shall not go out (on Shabbat) with a sword , nor with a bow , nor with a spear , nor with a shield , nor with a whip " With regards to Goliath (Samuel 1;17):"You come against me with a sword , and with a spear , and with a javelin ;" and with a copper helmet and with armor . The five weapons and the five strategies are alluded to by the five crowns atop the letter "tzadi" (three on the right side and two on the left) in the "tzava" by Evimelech's Captain of the Guard. (Sefer Rokeiach) |
