Prepping Sunday morning Bible class. The Israelite women gave mirrors for the Tabernacle; the Sages say that as slaves, the mirrors helped arouse the desire of their weary husbands. God found this gift more precious than all others because without them, there would be no Jews.

To the horrible human being who just won the Oscar for his movie about the Holocaust: Jews are neither aggressors in Israel (your delusion) nor victims anymore (your fantasy). You enable the deaths of your fellow Jews by promoting that blood libel.

Thank you to the dozens who joined us this morning for the book launch of Prof. Warren Zev Harvey’s *Isadore Twersky on Maimonides’ Philosophy*, co-sponsored by The Ginzei Nistarot Society and The Maimonides Kehillah of Brookline, MA. For those who were unable to attend live, please enjoy the recording here: (https://t.co/PJZnNF1NIO).

Insisting that being fully human requires Jews to refute their Jewishness is the essence of antisemitism

[Batya Ungar-Sargon @bungarsargon]

I simply cannot fathom the moral rot in someone's soul that leads them to win an award for a movie about the Holocaust and with the platform given to them, to accept that award by saying, "We stand here as men who refute their Jewishness."

@MotownRabbi Whatever one thinks of Heschel, he was not the kind of guy who would write "G-d"

מה רבו מעשיך יי
כולם בחכמה עשית
מלאה הארץ קנינך
How great are your works
You made each with wisdom
Your mastery fills the world

Remember when whistleblowers had cool names like “Deep Throat”? Now he’s just “whistleblower.” This used to be such a great country.

For some reason I have Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" in my head as we all brace for the #Knesset vote. #IsraElex19v2 #israel
