"#RabbiAkiva, with three other sages, gazes down at the destroyed #SecondTemple. A fox, fulfilling Jeremiah’s dismal prophecy, pokes its head from the ruins. #Jewish history has reached its end.
Akiva laughs. According to the #BabylonianTalmud, the other sages stare at him, incredulous: History has testified to the obsolescence of the Jewish people. Their story is sealed; the book is closed.
But Akiva sees a different ending to the story: Just as the prophecy of a destroyed temple came true, the prophecy of a restored #Jerusalem would also be fulfilled to the letter. #Akiva laughed amidst the ruins because he knew the story wasn’t over.
Two thousand years later, and days before the #TishaBAv fast that marks the destruction of the Second Temple and other historical calamities facing the Jewish people, we understand Akiva’s laughter - not a light-hearted “ha-ha,” but anguish and defiance in a single breath.
I feel this acutely as a purveyor of Jewish #stories..."

El planeta Akiva no es que tenga una jungla, es que es LA JUNGLA.La Leche, de veras. Puedo casi notar la ropa pegada a la piel y el tener que limpiarme la frente cada 20 pasos...

"[T]here were two prophecies in the #Torah concerning the #Temple – the first was that the Temple would be destroyed and the second was that the Temple would be rebuilt. #Rabbi #Akiva said that before then, he didn’t know if the first prophecy was actually going to come true, but now that it did, he knew the second prophecy would happen as well."
