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. .
