Security Official: Philip, why are you going to Israel?
Poppy: I'm making aliyah.
Security Official: What took you so long?
FERN ALLEN: A World War II veteran who had liberated the Dachau concentration camp during his US army service, he was 86, struggling with diabetes, cancer, and dementia. It became clear that my husband and I needed extra help, and eventually Archie, his Filipino caregiver, came to live with us. Another godsend, especially as the cancer progressed.

Pinoy/Pinay Privilege: Bending the rules on the Sabbath.
Joseph Jacobs, Judah David Eisenstein: According to strict Jewish law, a Jew is not allowed to employ a non-Jew to do work on the Sabbath which is forbidden to a Jew; but under certain circumstances the Rabbis allowed the employment of non-Jews, especially to heat the oven on winter days in northern countries.
JPOST EDITORIAL: In the spirit of Genesis 12:3, which states that God will bless those who bless the people of Israel, we bless those Christians who came to celebrate Sukkot in the Jewish state. Just as you have buoyed our spirits, we hope that you return home uplifted by your visit to the Holy Land.
Eytan Katz: The Filipino workers in Israel – the true Gerim
What is needed is a more accurate remembrance. Jews (and others, too) need to remember that Israeli Immigration Authorities did not just target Filipinos; they targeted Child and Mother.
Rabbi Peretz: Let the children of Filipino workers stay https://t.co/W59ncNbXLK— Arutz Sheva (@ArutzSheva_En) July 28, 2019
HARVEY FINKELSTEIN: Offer those who work with the elderly a fair oath to citizenshipIDA WAX: From personal experience I witnessed the most caring and compassionate Phillipino Woman take care of my sister-in-law for many years. They and their children should be allowed to stay in the country.RUBEN GRUBNER: Philipino people are amazing. They should be given the opportunity to stay! They deserve it. They are the caregivers to the world
The term Ger has been changed significantly in modern times. Today it refers to Gentiles that converted into Judaism. However, Elohim references to the term Ger in relations to Israel (it could refer to any stranger living in any country but this discussion is specific in relations to Israel) is to a gentile that lives amongst the Israelites under certain terms.Many of the Filipino workers in Israel are the perfect people to fit those terms because they believe in the Torah and its values (they are not required to observe it all) and they believe in the promises of Elohim to Israel.The idea that true Gers are threatening the faith of Israel is a complete nonsense and does not fit in any form to the spirit of the Torah. The Torah does not even put maximum number of Gers allowed to live amongst Israel. Therefore, the claim that there are too many Filipino workers in Israel is not even relevant.It is a mistake to think that the Filipino workers need to convert into Judaism in order to become Gers and receive status. They (those who accept the truth of the Torah) are Gers as it is.There is another crucial issue: the Philippines government gave 10,000 visas to German Jews in order to save them and was already talking on increasing the number to 50,000. Unfortunately, Japan stopped the Jewish immigration when they conquered the Philippines and therefore "only" 1300 Jews were saved. Yet, the credit must be given to the Philippines for at least the 10,000 if not even more. The Philippines also voted in favor of the state of Israel in November 1947.The Torah does not talk about those specific events. However, it is full with descriptions of how Elohim refers to nations that bless Israel and how he treats nations that hurt Israel. Therefore, with that spirit the Filipino workers in Israel are not only Gers but ones that Elohim would have given them even favorite status.The status of the Filipino workers turned into a political issue in which the left traditionally support them while the right (and especially the religious Jews) are against allowing them to stay in Israel. However, in reality it is the religious right who should be the first to protect the Filipino workers rights as Gers and allow them (under certain terms) to live in Israel with full Gers rights (similar to the American Green card) without citizenship.The Filipino community shot themselves in the feet by associating so closely with the Israeli political left, which has been the losing side in recent elections. This is so ironic because many Filipino believe in the truth of the Torah and in its values and praise the promises that Elohim gave Israel.Most letters in favor of the Filipino workers are signed by known liberal public figures. That actually turns out against the Filipino workers because it is in Minister Arie Drei, Naftali Bennett, Ayelet Shaked, Betzalel Smotrich and basically everyone else from the right wing (religious and secular) to brag to their voters that they are standing firm against the requests of the liberals.I am not turning you against the liberals. You should be thankful for their efforts to help you. However, in order to truly cause drastic changes than you need to cause change of hearts amongst the Israeli religious and secular right wing public.It is time that the religious right will stand up in favor of the Filipino workers to get full Ger's rights. The idea that those few thousands are a threat to the Israel identity and faith is against the spirit of the Torah.I invite all Filipino workers in Israel to share this letter amongst you and then only after the Shabat to share it with your Israeli friends including those that are part of the right wing and ask them to share it with their friends. In addition, seek right wing public figures to represent those arguments within their public and leaders. They and the rabbis should realize that the Filipino deportations of the past few weeks are a shame that is against the spirit of the Torah.Written by Leon Ben Gideon

ELLA HUNT: What are they so afraid of?
HAILEE STEINFELD: Maybe they're scared that if they teach us how the World works we'll figure out how to take over.
ELLA HUNT: M.
HAILEE STEINFELD: "M."
MICAH HALPERN: The situation is not good. We – those of us who care – must move the rest of American Jewry into our camp. We must redirect the priorities of political parties and we must entice young adults. It can be done. It won’t be easy. We must make people care.

MICHALI ROTHSTEIN: When people say they love to do something, it usually comes from a special place inside. For me, cooking has always been a passion that makes my heart smile. I attribute my love for cooking to my mother who, to this day, keeps the family tradition of Filipino cuisine alive. As a young child, I loved watching and helping my mother prepare our family meals. At the age of seven, I immigrated to Southern California from the Philippines. Even though it was comfortable and easy to assimilate into the American cuisine of hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza and sundaes, I still longed for the Filipino food that my mother prepared.
As I grew older, I collected and recreated the treasured family recipes from my childhood. The savory smells filled my kitchen and I reminisced about cherished family gatherings. In my thirties, I experienced a monumental turning point and converted to Judaism before I married my husband. Part of the conversion process was learning about and keeping a kosher home. As with many challenges in life, converting Filipino ingredients to kosher ones was sometimes not as easy as converting to Judaism. Oy Vey! What was a girl to do?
Moving forward with eager motivation, I put on my apron and began to experiment. I quickly discovered that I could create authentic Filipino dishes by using kosher ingredients. With repeated trial and error, I was delighted to replicate recipes that would make my mother proud. “Kosher with a twist” is a loving compilation of prized and easy to make Filipino meals from my family to yours. Enjoy!
Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
