    תָּחֵל שָׁנָה וּבִרְכוֹתֶיהָ.
    Let a year and its woes end, let a year and its blessings begin.

  22. "When I tell people I’m a nonobservant #Orthodox #Jew, there is usually a small pause, followed by a look that says: Pick one. I understand it. The phrase sounds like a hedge, or like someone claiming a title he hasn’t earned. But I don’t think it’s a contradiction.

    It helps to start with where this came from, because it didn’t come from childhood. Until a few years ago, I wasn’t curious about any of it. I was #secular and, on some subjects, actively hostile to religion. What changed was #Oct7, 2023, and then a semester when I was honored to be associated with #Yeshiva University. I came away wanting to know more than I did, and I’ve been picking at that ever since.

    I should be clear about the scale of it: I am not a learned man in the #Jewish sense of that word. If you quoted a passage at me, there’s a good chance I wouldn’t recognize it. What I do is modest and improvised."

  23. "I do have to wonder how many #zionists realize that they’re permanently giving the term #antisemitism boy who cried wolf #connotations. The #word is tainted to the point that I’m not sure it’s viable in discussions of actual antisemitism anymore. It’s really grim to be in a position as a #Jew where every time I see someone describe something as antisemitic I have to spend 5 minutes digging through their profile before I can know if they’re being genuine"
