ERETZ FROM THE 
PARTNERSHIP2GETHER REGION

from Temple Israel, Rabbi Dan 
Horwitz from Adat Shalom 
Synagogue, Rabbi Yonatan 
Dahlen of Congregation 
Shaarey Zedek, and Rabbis 
Daniel Schwartz and Michael 
Moskowitz of Temple Shir 
Shalom. Debbie Bletstein, 
LLMSW, former cantor at 
Congregation B’nai Moshe, is 
participating in her capacity 
as a licensed social worker. 
Tamarack Camps brought her 
on through a foundation grant 
to provide guidance and other 
assistance as needed on the 
mission.
TM22 rounds out its week 
following the Negev sojourn in 
the Jerusalem area, welcoming 
Shabbat at the Western Wall’s 
egalitarian prayer space, the 
non-Orthodox “mixed” prayer 
area for men and women. 
They are staying at the Kiryat 
Ye’arim Youth Village Guest 
House, near where American 
Col. David Daniel “Mickey” 
Marcus was killed during 
Israel’s War of Independence.
The Jewish Virtual Library 
relates that in 1948, Acting 
Prime Minister David Ben-
Gurion appointed Marcus 
Lieutenant General, the inde-
pendent Jewish state’s first 
general since Judah Maccabee. 
Marcus, who served under the 
name of “Michael Stone” as a 
ruse to avoid being charged by 
the U.S. as an American offi-

cer serving in a foreign army. 
He adapted his training as a 
U.S. Ranger to the command 
structure for the special needs 
of the new Jewish army, pro-
viding strategy and tactics to 
overcome the superior num-
bers and weaponry possessed 
by the invading Arab armies. 
The Jewish Virtual Library 
notes how that just six hours 
before the first cease-fire began 
June 10, 1948, the man of 
war took a nighttime walk by 
the kibbutz, ventured beyond 
the guarded perimeter, clad 
in his bedtime white robe. 
An Israeli sentry challenged 
whoever might be in the robe 
for the password. Neither one 
spoke the other’s language, 
resulting in a single, fatal shot. 
Hollywood immortalized him 
on film in a movie, Cast a Giant 
Shadow.
TM22’s second week is 
based around Jerusalem, where 
they will visit and learn about 
the capital’s Old City and its 
Jewish Quarter, hike at Masada 
and Ein Gedi, and participate 
in an archaeological dig for a 
day. .
