Today in Jewish History
=======================

· Jews of Basel Burned Alive (1349)

With the Black Death raging throughout Switzerland, poison was reported to have been found in the wells at Zofingen. Some Jews were put to the "Dümeln" (thumbscrews) test, whereupon they "admitted" their guilt of the charges brought against them. This discovery was then communicated to the people of Basel, Zurich, Freiburg-im-Breisgau, and even Cologne.

The Jews of Basel were burned on an island in the Rhine on January 9, 1349, in wooden huts that were especially built for the occasion. Their children, who were spared, were taken and forcibly baptized.

Today in Jewish History
=======================

· Twelve Jews Burnt at Auto De Fe in Peru (1639)

With the inquisition having arrived on American shores, twelve Jews were burnt in an auto de fe in Lima, Peru, on the 18th of Shevat 5399 (1639). Of the sixty-three Jews who were condemned at the time to various punishments, eleven were burnt alive at the stake, along with the body of a twelfth, who had committed suicide during the trial.

Amongst those burnt was Manuel Bautista Perez, reported to have been the richest man in Peru at the time, as well as Francisco Maldonado de Silva, a surgeon, poet, and philosopher who was seized in Chile in 1627, and remained in the dungeons of the Inquisition for nearly twelve years. His devotion to his faith never wavered; while in prison he even converted two Catholics to Judaism!

DAILY DOSE: Truth Concentrate

B"H


Truth Concentrate
=================

This Torah we were given is not of the world, nor is it something extraneous to it. Rather, it is the hidden essence, the primal thought from which all the cosmos and each thing within it extends. It is not about the world, it is the world—the world as its Creator sees it and knows it to be.

The sages of the Talmud told us that the Torah is the blueprint G-d used to design His creation. There is not a thing that cannot be found there. Even more, they told us, G-d and His Torah are one, for His thoughts are not outside of Him as our thoughts are.

But He took that infinite wisdom and condensed it a thousandfold, a billionfold, and more, into finite, earthly terms that we could grasp—yet without losing a drop of its purity, its intimate bond with Him. Then He put it into our hands to learn, to explore and to extend.

So now, when our mind grasps a thought of Torah, thoroughly, with utter clarity, we grasp that inner wisdom. And at the time we are completely absorbed in the process of thought, comprehension and application, our self and being is absorbed in that infinite wisdom which is the essence of all things. We have grasped it, and it grasps us. In truth, we become that essence.

=======================
Today in Jewish History
=======================

· Purim Saragossa (1421)

A noxious plot was brewing against the Jewish community of Saragossa, but they were completely unaware of the looming danger. They were spared, however, thanks to a handful of synagogues beadles who acted on a dream they all had. The resulting salvation on the 17th of Shevat was celebrated by Saragossan Jews, and dubbed "Purim Saragossa."

A Hebrew Megillah (scroll) was penned, describing the details of the miraculous story. To this day, this scroll is read in certain communities on Purim Saragossa.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK: Can I Stop a Co-Worker from Smoking in the Office?

B"H


Shevat 16, 5772 * February 9, 2012

========================================
Q U E S T I O N O F T H E W E E K
========================================

Can I Stop a Co-Worker from Smoking in the Office?
By Dovid Zaklikowski
==================================================

Dear Rabbi,

My company just transferred me from Chicago to our affiliate office in Israel [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=09465F4FE89F7774F4F1788BFC860478&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ]. There is a chain smoker who sits near me in the new office. Besides the horrendous consequences to my health, my clothes now have a stench that is not coming out in the wash. No one else seems to be bothered by this.

According to Jewish law, am I allowed to ask him to stop smoking?

Answer:

As we all know, smoking causes serious ailments, which means that it conflicts with the Biblical injunction to take care of our health (Deuteronomy 4:15 [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=EEFB4126885D99F6C75E665D060DF7FF&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ]): "And you shall watch yourselves very well."

While there are rabbis who say, based on this verse, that smoking is Biblically prohibited,[1] many others say that it is not a Biblical prohibition, but "good advice" not to smoke.[2] Others say that the responsibility should be left with the doctors to warn their patients not to smoke, based on their specific situations; and what the doctor says should be followed, as in other matters.[3]

Damaging Others



The above applies to an individual's right to smoke at all; however, in a case where one would cause another to suffer from the smoke, a prohibition would apply according to Jewish law.[4]

In the words of Maimonides [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=54680AE72C805BF73146966B59A7DE9A&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] in his code of Jewish law [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=44A92765B0B93F9FA9398981613E8F97&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ]:



When a person makes a threshing floor within his own property, or establishes a latrine or a place to perform work that creates dust, dirt or the like, he must distance the place of his activity far enough that the dirt, the odor of the latrine, or the dust does not reach his colleague and cause him damage.[5]

This becomes more complicated in a case like yours, where the person has been smoking for years, and you are the new-comer encroaching on his turf. In Jewish law, this is called a "chazakah," i.e., there is a precedent for the person's actions and therefore, in certain cases, the person is allowed to continue these actions.

However, the rule of chazakah does not apply to situations where someone else incurs damage. So, while your co-worker's smoking may not bother anyone else, the Code of Jewish Law unequivocally states:



When it is known that this person cannot handle the disturbing behavior, even though others may be able to handle it, the rule of chazakah does not apply.[6]

In the words of Maimonides:



Similar rules apply with regard to a person who has established himself in a profession involving blood, animal carcasses or the like on his premises, and ravens and other birds of that type will come because of the blood, and eat. While doing so, they cause discomfort to the person's neighbor with their sounds and chirping, or with the blood on their feet. For they sit on the neighbor's trees and soil his produce. If the neighbor is irritable or sick, and the chirping of the birds harms him, or his produce is spoiled because of the blood, the person performing the task must cease or must separate to the extent that his neighbor does not suffer any harm because of him.[7]

These sources refer to situations where someone is bothered by another's behavior; however, one of the preeminent rabbinical authorities of the 20th century, Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, writes that now that we know that second-hand smoke is detrimental to health, when someone smokes in the presence of others, it is as if the person is harming others with his or her own hands.[8]

Jewish law gives one the right to ask, even if your coworker has been in the habit of smoking in his office for years.

See Health and Jewish Tradition [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=96355364DA8BEC14B259C0BC47A4EE91&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] from our selection of Judaism on Health, Illness and Healing [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=CFD2009B5EE555604F93AB52604E6AAA&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 kid= ].

One interesting ramification of this difference of opinions could occur if someone were to ask you for a match to light a cigarette. If smoking is Biblically prohibited, one would not be allowed to be of assistance to him; however, if not smoking is only "good advice," one would be permitted to give the other person a match.
