Temple Israel Students To Represent
Carolinas In National Bible Contest
Three students of Temple
Israel Religious School have
qualified to participate in the
National Finals of the Na
tional Bible Contest. The con
test, sponsored by the Depart
ment of Education and
Culture of the World Zionist
Organization, will be held in
New York on May 24. It will
be preceded by a weekend of
activities bringing together
young Bible scholars from all
over the U.S. and Canada. The
three youngsters are Danny
Fisher, son of Janice and
Lewis Fisher, Debbie Massachi,
daughter of Rose Massachi
and Ben Massachi, and Shira
Melenson, daughter of Cynthia
and Richard Melenson. They
were among a group of eight
who have been studying the
Biblical Books of Exodus,
Deuteronomy and Ruth for the
past year and who recently
took an extensive written ex
amination on the material in
those three books. Other par
ticipants included Benjamin
Frank, Jeffrey Gartner, Larry
Heiman, Elizabeth Nordin and
Julie Schneider. All the
students and their parents will
be honored at a special Sab
bath Service at Temple Israel
on June 13.
This is the first time the
Carolinas will be represented
in the National Bible Contest,
bringing a special distinction
to the Charlotte Jewish com
munity and Temple Israel.
These scholars were prepared
for the competition by Rabbi
Mzu*c Wilson, spiritual leader
of Temple Israel. In eight of
the past ten years, Rabbi

Wilson has had at least one
student place in the top ten in
the National Bible Contest
Finals. Rabbi Wilson
observes, “These youngsters
are all winners! They have
achieved nobly, simply by
directing some of their
wonderful curiosity and en
thusiasm toward deeper
understanding of our heritage.
These children are special
because they aren’t special.
They are just typical kids who
got turned on and who had
plenty of time for sports,
homework, computers and
goofing off.”
