"For many #Jews, the morning of #Oct7 remains seared into memory. In #JoannSfar’s case, it was also the day of his birthday party, which included “as many #Muslims as Jews,” he told me. Amidst tragedy, #Sfar felt a profound gratitude for life, which seemed especially precious. It was a day of fear and uncertainty, followed by many more over the following months. For Sfar, drawing was the only way out.
To Life is Sfar’s #illustrated journal of his experience after Oct. 7, a reflection of his fierce peace advocacy coupled with a profound connection to #Israel. It follows several previous #books by Sfar, who is a #French #Jewish #graphicnovelist best known for The Rabbi’s Cat. His works touch on his #Sephardic heritage, highlighting a history of friendship and brotherhood between #Arabs and Jews.
To Life is the #English #translation of Nous Vivrons, which was #published in June 2024 as the first of a three-part series."

Not a flattering review given the lens chosen. IDGAF. My copy gets here today and I'm looking forward to it. Pun intended.
"A few days after I started #reading #DaraHorn’s new #book, I was called a “#kike” for the first time to my face.
It was a sunny afternoon and I was wearing my Newsguild shirt. A person on the sidewalk, deshabille, possibly collecting junk, asked what union I was in. Against my better judgment I engaged, believing them to be a fellow worker. I said I was a journalist. They then decided I was a “fascist” and “complicit.”
“Do you like writing about the #genocide in #Palestine? The war in #Iran?” they asked me, trailing me past a #Judaica store in a very #Jewish neighborhood.
[...]
#Horn’s The #FinalSolution to #theJewishQuestion: A Love Story for the Living, her latest provocatively-titled #nonfiction book is a survey of #antisemitism past and present and the ways #Jews explain ourselves to the world. At its heart, it is about #education."

Goodbye Jerusalem
Since the dawn of Islam, Jerusalem has been an integral part of its faith. Its air carries the blessed breaths of messengers who chanted the remembrance of God and called for His oneness. Its Al-Aqsa Mosque is the place of the Prophet’s Night Journey, may God bless him and grant him peace. God has blessed its surroundings and multiplied the reward for those who worship in it. How many stories have been told in its path, and how many heroic deeds and stances have been recorded in its courtyards? -
"Over the centuries, #American #Jews have built a vast religious landscape in which no single institution or orthodoxy can reign supreme or dictate how #Judaism should be practised. Such free market Judaism has produced a panoply of diverse religious #Jewish life, but it has also made collective representation more difficult.
Who ends up speaking on behalf of American Jews when #antisemitism spikes? Who testifies on Capitol Hill before Congress? Who can synthesise the concerns of #Orthodox, #Reform, #Conservative and unaffiliated Jews without pretending their differences don’t exist?
Whether #America ever gets a chief #rabbi again or a universally-accepted council of chief #rabbis may be beside the point. What isn't beside the point is that at a time of disturbing levels of antisemitism and a Jewish community fractured by politics, some kind of unity, however America chooses to build it, has never felt more necessary."

" #EzraFeig begins each Friday the same way: corralling 100 #Jews to go on a #run in #CentralPark.

"[A] #Jewish #scholar of #Christian #Scriptures. Levine has worked to improve how #Christians and her fellow #Jews understand each other. She's spoken at many #churches and taught students about the ancient Jewish context of Jesus' life and teachings. She's #authored numerous #books, some in tandem with Christian #scholars; she and a co- #author even presented one #book personally to #Pope Francis.
But after the #Catholic Biblical Association of #America announced earlier this month that Levine was elected its first-ever Jewish president, an #antisemitic backlash began.
Denunciations appeared [...] Critics called her “anti-Christian,” claimed she's trying to hijack #Catholicism, denounced Jews for not accepting Jesus, and tacked on anti- #Zionist comments.
While some questioned why the association would appoint anyone who wasn't a Catholic, much of the criticism was infused with anti-Jewish statements. They come at a time of rising #antisemitism in the country.

Spirituality & Religious Studies @spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com@spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com ·Samaritanism
Samaritanism is an Abrahamic monotheistic, ethnic religion. It comprises the collective spiritual, cultural, & legal traditions of the Samaritan people.
Often preferring to be called Israelite Samaritans, who originated from the Hebrews & Israelites. They began to emerge as a relatively distinct group after the Kingdom of Israel was conquered by the Neo-Assyrian Empire during the Iron Age. The Neo-Assyrian Empire was the 4th, & penultimate, stage of ancient Assyrian history.
Central to their continuity as an Indigenous Heritage in the Holy Land is keeping the Patriarchal & Mosaic covenant as specified in the Samaritan Torah. Samaritans believe this is the original & unchanged version of the Pentateuch (which is the first 5 books of the Hebrew & Christian bible) since Moses & the Israelites at Mount Sinai.
The Abisha Scroll is traditionally held by the community to be the oldest existing scroll written by Abisha, son of Aaron the priest, around 3,000 years ago based on living tradition. However, Jewish & Christian theologians have made attempts to dispute this claim which proved unsatisfactory.
Judaism claims Samaritanism developed right alongside their own religion. Samaritanism asserts itself as the true preserved form of the monotheistic faith that the Israelites kept under Moses. Samaritan belief also holds that the Israelites’ original holy site was Mount Gerizim, near Nablus, the State of Palestine (West Bank).
They also believe that Jerusalem only attained importance under Israelite dissenters who had followed Eli (In the Book of Samuel, Eli was a priest & judge of the Israelites in the city of Shiloh) to the city of Shiloh.
The Israelites who remained at Mount Gerizim would become the Samaritans in the Kingdom of Judah. Mount Gerizim is revered by Samaritans as the location where the Binding of Isaac occurred. In comparison to the Jewish belief that it occurred at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.
Today there are only about 900 registered communal members. This puts Samaritanism as 1 of the smallest ethnoreligious groups globally in the Abrahamic faiths. Samaritans believe that this is a prophecy fulfilled from the scriptures: “You’ll be left few in number.”
Though they hope for a future time when a prophet like Moses known as the “Taheb” (Restorer) will perform 3 signs, namely the jar of manna, the staff of Moses, & Cherubim, or the Golden Candlestick.
This time period they believe is when an era of Divine Favor would return, & the hidden tabernacle of Moses would miraculously be revealed for the Israelite people & Mount Gerizim is restored to its former glory.
Samaritans trace their history, as a separate entity, to a period soon after the Israelites’ arrival into the “Promised Land.” Samaritan historiography traces the schism to High Priest Eli leaving Mount Gerizim, where stood the 1st Israelite altar in Canaan, & building a competing altar in nearby Shiloh.
The dissenting group of Israelites who followed Eli to Shiloh would be the ones who, in later years, would head south to settle in Jerusalem (the Jews). Whereas the Israelites who stayed on Mount Gerizim, in Samaria, would become known as the Samaritans.
Genetic studies in 2004 suggest that Samaritans’ lineages trace back to a common ancestor with Jews in the paternally-inherited Jewish high priesthood (Cohanim) temporally near to the period of the Assyrian conquest of the Kingdom of Israel. They’re probably descendants of the historical Israelite population. The Cohanim refers to the Jewish priestly class, male descendants of Aaron the priest.
The Hasmonean king, John Hyrcanus, destroyed the Mount Gerizim Temple & brought Samaria under his control around 120 BCE. This led to a long-lasting sense of mutual hostility between the Jews & Samaritans.
From this point, the Samaritans likely sought to consciously distance themselves from their Judean brethren. Both peoples came to see the Samaritan faith as a religion distinct from Judaism. By the time of Jesus, Samaritans & Jews deeply disparaged one another, as shown by Jesus’ Parable of the Good Samaritan.
The main beliefs of Samaritanism are:
- There’s 1 God, Yahweh, the same God recognized by the Jewish prophets.
- The Torah is the only true holy book & was given by God to Moses. The Torah was created before the creation of the world & whoever believes in it is assured a part in the world to come. The Torah’s status in Samaritanism as the only holy book causes them to reject the Oral Torah, the Talmud, & all the prophets & scriptures, except for a version of the Book of Joshua (which they don’t hold as Scripture), whose book in the Samaritan community is significantly different from the Book of Joshua in the Jewish “Bible.” Moses is considered to be the last of the line of prophets.
- Mount Gerizim, not Jerusalem, is the 1 true sanctuary chosen by God. The Samaritans don’t recognize the sanctity of Jerusalem & don’t recognize the Temple Mount, claiming instead that Mount Gerizim was the place where the Binding of Isaac took place.
- The Apocalypse, called “the day of vengeance,” will be the end of days. When an entity called the Taheb (basically the Jewish Messiah equal) that comes from the tribe of Joseph will come, be a prophet like Moses for 40 years & bring about the return of all the Israelites, following which the dead will be resurrected. The Tahib will then discover the tent of Moses’ Tabernacle on Mount Gerizim, & will be buried next to Joseph when he dies.
The Samaritans have retained the institution of a high priesthood & the practice of slaughtering & eating lambs on Passover Eve. They celebrated Pesach, Shavuot, & Sukkot. But they use a different method from that used in mainstream Judaism in order to determine the dates annually.
For example, Yom Teru’ah (the biblical name for Rosh Hashanah), at the beginning of Tishrei (This is the 1st month of the civil year & the 7th month of the ecclesiastical year in the Hebrew calendar.), isn’t considered a New Year as it is in Rabbinic Judaism.
Their Sabbath is observed weekly by the Samaritan community every week from Friday to Saturday, beginning & ending at sundown. For 24 hours, the families gather together to celebrate the rest day: all electricity with the exception of minimal lighting (kept on the entire day) in the house is disconnected, no work is done, & neither cooking nor driving is allowed.
The time is devoted to worship which consists of 7 prayer services, reading the weekly Torah portion, spending quality time with family, taking meals, rest & sleep, & visiting other members of the community.
Passover is particularly important in the Samaritan community, climaxing with the sacrifice of up to 40 sheep.
The Counting of the Omar remains relatively unchanged. The Counting of the Omar is a ritual in Judaism that consists of a verbal counting of each of the 49 days between the holidays of Passover & Shavuot. However, the week before Shavuot is a unique festival celebrating the continued commitment Samaritanism has maintained since the time of Moses.
During Sukkot, the Sukkah (the temporary hut built for use during Sukkot) is built INSIDE of houses, instead of OUTSIDE like mainstream Judaism. This Samaritan tradition is traced back to the persecution of the Samaritans during the Byzantine Empire.
The roof of the Samaritan Sukkah is decorated with citrus fruits & branches of palm, myrtle, & willow trees. This is in accordance with the Samaritan interpretation of the 4 species designated in the Torah for the holiday. The 4 species are 4 plants (the etrog, lulav, hadass, & aravah) mentioned in the Torah as being relevant to the Jewish holiday of Sukkot.

🇬🇧 On #HolocaustRemembranceDay, remember the millions of victims of the #naziregim during World War II, and in the face of rising anti-Semitism, revisionism and conspiracy theories, we must remain vigilant to combat misinformation and educate future generations about these atrocities.
Millions of #Jews, #Gypsies/Rom/Calós, #Freemasons and other human beings arrested for faith and political reasons, were killed just for thinking or believing differently from an ideology or a group of people.
This door of a concentration camp was unfortunately what many of my #Freemason brothers and sisters saw before going to the Eternal East, on this day I remember them.🇵🇹 No #DiaLembrançadoHolocaustro, lembra-se as milhões de vítimas do #regimenazi durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial e, diante do crescente anti-semitismo, revisionismo e teorias da conspiração, devemos permanecer vigilantes para combater a desinformação e educar as gerações futuras sobre essas atrocidades.
Milhões de judeus, #ciganos/roma/calós, #maçons e outros seres humanos detidos por questões de fé e políticas, foram mortos só por pensarem ou crerem diferente de uma ideologia ou de um conjunto de pessoas.
Esta porta de um campo de concentração foi o que infelizmente muitos dos meus irmãos e irmãs maçons viram antes de irem para o Oriente eterno, neste dia recordo-os.🇫🇷 Dans le #Jourdusouvenirdel'Holocauste, nous souvenons des millions de victimes du régime nazi pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale et, face à la montée de l'antisémitisme, du révisionnisme et des théories du complot, nous devons rester vigilants pour lutter contre la désinformation et éduquer les générations futures sur ces atrocités.
Des millions de #juifs, de #gitans/roms/calós, de #francsmaçons et d'autres êtres humains arrêtés pour des raisons religieuses et politiques, ont été tués simplement parce qu'ils pensaient ou croyaient différemment d'une idéologie ou d'un groupe de personnes.
Cette porte d'un camp de concentration était malheureusement ce que beaucoup de mes frères et sœurs #maçons ont vu avant d'aller dans l'Orient Éternel, en ce jour je me souviens d'eux.🇪🇦 En el #DíadeRecuerdacióndelHolocausto se recuerda los millones de víctimas del régimen nazi durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y, ante el aumento del antisemitismo, el revisionismo y las teorías de la conspiración, debemos permanecer atentos para combatir la desinformación y educar a las generaciones futuras sobre estas atrocidades.
Millones de #judios, #gitanos/rom/calós, #massones y otros seres humanos detenidos por motivos religiosos y políticos, fueron asesinados sólo por pensar o creer diferente a una ideología oa un grupo de personas.

Millions of #Jews, #Gypsies/Rom/Calós, #Freemasons and other human beings arrested for faith and political reasons, were killed just for thinking or believing differently from an ideology or a group of people.
This door of a concentration camp was unfortunately what many of my #Freemason brothers and sisters saw before going to the Eternal East, on this day I remember them.🇵🇹 No #DiaLembrançadoHolocaustro, lembra-se as milhões de vítimas do #regimenazi durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial e, diante do crescente anti-semitismo, revisionismo e teorias da conspiração, devemos permanecer vigilantes para combater a desinformação e educar as gerações futuras sobre essas atrocidades.
Milhões de judeus, #ciganos/roma/calós, #maçons e outros seres humanos detidos por questões de fé e políticas, foram mortos só por pensarem ou crerem diferente de uma ideologia ou de um conjunto de pessoas.
Esta porta de um campo de concentração foi o que infelizmente muitos dos meus irmãos e irmãs maçons viram antes de irem para o Oriente eterno, neste dia recordo-os.🇫🇷 Dans le #Jourdusouvenirdel'Holocauste, nous souvenons des millions de victimes du régime nazi pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale et, face à la montée de l'antisémitisme, du révisionnisme et des théories du complot, nous devons rester vigilants pour lutter contre la désinformation et éduquer les générations futures sur ces atrocités.
Des millions de #juifs, de #gitans/roms/calós, de #francsmaçons et d'autres êtres humains arrêtés pour des raisons religieuses et politiques, ont été tués simplement parce qu'ils pensaient ou croyaient différemment d'une idéologie ou d'un groupe de personnes.
Cette porte d'un camp de concentration était malheureusement ce que beaucoup de mes frères et sœurs #maçons ont vu avant d'aller dans l'Orient Éternel, en ce jour je me souviens d'eux.🇪🇦 En el #DíadeRecuerdacióndelHolocausto se recuerda los millones de víctimas del régimen nazi durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y, ante el aumento del antisemitismo, el revisionismo y las teorías de la conspiración, debemos permanecer atentos para combatir la desinformación y educar a las generaciones futuras sobre estas atrocidades.
Millones de #judios, #gitanos/rom/calós, #massones y otros seres humanos detenidos por motivos religiosos y políticos, fueron asesinados sólo por pensar o creer diferente a una ideología oa un grupo de personas.
