Ruling: The 2012 contract is binding, as it was signed by authorized officers of each organization. The fact that other contracts (signed and proposed) do not include the clause to enable def’s removal does not invalidate the contract or the clause. As the Shulchan Aruch (Choshen Mishpat 45:3) rules, one cannot deny being bound to all of a document he signed based on the claim he was not aware of its content. Although the following is not necessary to validate the clause, we point out that until the 2012 contract, the agreements were with the regional council, which paid for def to service the community at pl’s auspices. The 2012 contract, the only one between these two parties, can be different than the previous ones. Later draft agreements are not an indication of an end to previous agreements if the two sides decided not to sign them.
There is more to discuss regarding the claim that since the 2012 contract expired years ago, its clauses are not relevant to subsequent, oral agreements. There is a machloket whether an expired contract is still relevant. The Taz (CM, 333:8) and Shach (CM 333:44), in the context of labor agreements, rule that all of the details of the old agreement that were neither renewed nor revoked continue to be in effect. The Rama (ad loc. 8) and Machaneh Ephrayim (Sechirut 11) say they do not continue. There is a further machloket (see treatment in our beit din’s ruling 70024) whether those who posit that provisions continue say so when the new agreement changes other elements of the previous agreement. However, since the only explicit change was the price of the rental, which naturally goes up over time, that change is not indicative of the lapsing of the other provisions.
We will continue from this point next time.

Re'e NEVER EXTREME EXCEPT ISRAEL
Parshat Re'eh
Judaism is against extremism, so how can we understand the seemingly extreme statements found in our sages in favor of living in the Land of Israel and against living in Chutz laAretz? The article deals with the seeming contradiction between the strength of Free-Will and the strength of being influenced by our surroundings.
Ekev DANCE FOR ISRAEL- FOR YOUR BENEFIT
Parshat Eikev
Description: The 7 Haftarot we read after Tisha B'Av ("Shiva D'Nichemta") surely get us excited that they're coming TRUE, and awaken us to yearn, dance & join the return to Zion! The short article also deals with the problems and solutions facing the American Jewish community as discussed at a recent panel, as well as the question why Jews come from America to Israel to help when we face problems, but Israelis don't come to aid Jews in America when they face anti-Semitism.

D'varim Judaism’s Social Vision
Re’eh
Giving is more than an act of generosity—it is an essential part of human dignity that belongs to everyone, rich and poor alike. The ultimate goal of help is to empower others to stand on their own.
