Est Lorem ipsum redditium definitionem Aristotelis “inter” quae in H & G;

 

Quod a changing, si continue mutatur in naturali modo naturaliter prius pertingit ad illud ad quod mutatur ultimum inter. Ita ‘inter’ importat praesentiam minus tria in processu mutationis est contrarium quod “novissimi: et si continuo movetur aliquid relinquit rima minima gap in materia, aut tantum non in tempore (nam non intermittit quin temporibus rebus a ‘inter’ dum, contra, nihil prohibet aliquam magnificam post infimum supremi), sed in materia in qua motus agitur. Non modo perspicue verum est, sed in omni mutatione locorum alia pariter. (Omnis autem importat mutationem bina opposita et contraria esse vel contradictorie opposita sint: tum quia contradictio non potest habere medium terminum, manifestum est quod inter ‘necesse habent par contrariorum) Hoc loco contrarium quod maxime distat in linea recta, quia finita est certus minima linea, quae est certus numerus limitatus constituit.

 

Est Lorem ipsum redditium definitionem Aristotelis “inter” quae in C & W:

 

Sed omnis mutatio est inter contraria et opposita sunt contradictoria aut contraria, et nihil est medium inter contradictoria est medium, sive quod “inter” duo contraria esse non potest nisi quando sunt. Si inter A et B, C transeuntem (vel loco) continua mutatione secundum naturam extremorum, necesse est ut veniat ad B in C, antequam perveniatur ad a via A. ‘Inter’ importat saltem tres terminos, et unde de transitu, unde oppositum, scilicet ‘quo’ et aliquid supra lineam loco, quo magis quam unde et ibi continue in libero, vel si non solverit cursum – vel, si tantum minimum. Dico intermissione in non tempore, sed in mutatione secundum quod est mutatio, quia solum in tempore cum diapason potest a summo note nota (quae maxima saltu vel in irritum fieri potest librae) Confestim igitur ut, sicut duo separata notes by minima excogitari medium. Quae omnia non solum autem aliae mutationes loci mutatio est. In nomine applicationem loci, unum contra aliud, si longius ab ea, in linea recta, quam quodcumque aliud individuum eiusdem ordinis res in campo sub ratio. De recta eligitur quia brevissimus est solum inter duos, unum certum locum et certum sit mensura vel regula.

Rabbi Pulman

fpo-headshot-125w

Warmly welcomed by Our Congregation Rabbi Pulman joined the synagogue in 2000.

The son of a pulpit rabbi, Pulman always knew he would one day follow in his father’s footsteps, because he saw firsthand the influence a dedicated spiritual leader can have on people’s lives.

Upon graduation from college he sojourned into the world of business, realizing that his ultimate goal was, indeed, the world of the rabbinate. “I reiterated my earlier hopes until the period when I would be ready to follow my dream”, he said recently. “I always knew I’d come back to it, but I wanted to reach that point when I was completely ready to accept the challenge”.

Accepting “the challenge” meant that Pulman had set priorities for himself as a Rabbi, among which is his desire to combat Jewish illiteracy. “I want to unlock the beauty of our tradition and make it accessible to everyone,” he said. “I want to see myself as a key”.

Having been a student at the Ziegler Rabbinical School at the University of Judaism, the future Rabbi Pulman gives full credit to his learning period for inspiration to enter the area of synagogue leadership as Associate Rabbi to Senior Rabbi, Geraiint and to give the congregants the benefits of such knowledge. Interning at Congregation Ner Tamid in Palos Verdes and serving in the U.S. Navy Chaplaincy Corps has enhanced his rabbinical career.

Among some of his duties at our Congregation teaching, developing adult education programs, spiritual counseling, working with teenagers, developing services for the ill and bereaved, and leading worship services.
