Last week: When the baby's mother recognizes Rabbi Koval's brachah of Asher yatzar, he discovers that she and her baby are, in fact, Jewish.
We will now perform a proper Jewish bris for the baby!
Now we can give him whatever Jewish name you choose for him.
His mom wants a Jewish name for herself, too.
I need kosher wine to use when we make the blessings for the bris.
Incredible! In the merit of my kibbud av va'eim, we set the bris to take place earlier, and now we're performing it at the proper time, before shekiah!
Wonderful!
Halevai the spark of Yiddishkeit will continue burning in the mother and her son...
Hard to imagine there would be kosher wine in this house, and in a sealed bottle, too, without reason to suspect yayin nesech, but I'm trying...
Uh...you need kosher wine for the circumcision ceremony? So sorry,
Perhaps you have some other special drink?
We might have beer. Let me check the fridge...
Is that a bottle of kosher wine?
Let's see...
Oh, boy! That's amazing. The wine is kosher, Rabbi! It was simply waiting here for you to come!
I don't think so, Rabbi. It's just a bottle we bought for my Dad in Costco a long time ago. It's been in the fridge here for over a year.
Several days later, in Rabbi Koval's office:
I'm the mother of the baby from Oberlin. I would like to join some classes about Judaism...
Exactly! It was divinely orchestrated that this kosher bottle of wine would be in your fridge, unused, so we could use it to say the blessings on the bris!
It's simply amazing how I forgot to say Asher yatzar and then remembered only in the family's home in Oberlin, all leading to this incredible transformation!
