Purim Quotes
I know this is the question period, but there's a quote here which is just so relevant. I hope I can - I hope I can read it. It's from an article by, uh, Yossi Klein Halevi on Pesach Jews versus Purim Jews. So he talks about these - there's these two threads, these two strands among - among - among Jews in - actually, there's more in Israel. But it's here, too. So he - I just love this, and it fits so well with - with - with The Righteous Mind. He says, uh, Jewish history speaks to our generation in the voice of two Biblical commands to remember.
Jonathan Haidt
And there we have my good rabbi.... he came up so tired in the studio, and then I put him down here. There was such a real seat in that guy, so with his pants slumped. That's nice, isn't it, that long black cloak with those wide folds and that slackly beer mat. He is holding the Torah role in his arm, do you see?... I known that old rab for a lot of years already, and with Purim and Rosh HaShanah [Jewish New Year] he comes faithfully around for his douceur [tip].
