"#EishetChayil: Woman of Valor – Heroines of Our History is a commentary on the 22 verses of #Proverbs 31, based on #midrash, the #Talmud, classic #rabbinic texts, and #ChabadHassidut. It is published by #Kehot, the central publishing house of the #Chabad-#Lubavitch movement.
The #book does not merely explain “Eishet Chayil”; it positions it as a sweeping #theological and historical statement about #Jewish #womanhood and Jewish survival. The tone is set early on, with sentences like, “At every critical juncture of our long and challenging history, you will find the fearless and wise eishet chayil shepherding us toward our destiny.”
One of the book’s central claims is clear and consistent: Jewish #history does not merely include #women; it is propelled by them."

Pilkington—Puritan, expounding Proverbs—prays the wealthy would open their barns rather than corner markets during hunger. Solomon’s verdict: hoarders get cursed, sellers get blessed. Note the nuance: private property stays intact. It’s simply that hoarding during famine attracts God’s plague and popular fury. Today we’d sooner blame the hungry for coveting. Proverbs disagrees.

"Armut ist ohne Zweifel das Schrecklichste. Mir dürfte einer zehn Milionen herlegen und sagen, ich soll arm sein dafür, ich nehmets nicht",
schrieb Johann #Nestroy.
Man könnte den Satz aktualisieren:
Überfluss ist ohne Zweifel das Schrecklichste. Mir könnt'einer Millionen Dinge gratis anbieten und sagen, ich sollt später dafür bezahlen, ich nehmet nix...

if they are thirsty, give them water to drink.

Today I learned that in 1866 people said, “Eat an apple on going to bed, and you'll keep the doctor from earning his bread” as a variant of “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.”
(Assuming Wikipedia is accurate, of course.)
I love learning about old sayings like this and how they’ve changed over the years.

#Crowdsourcing ideas for a #meme I'd like to create.
What are your favorite #leftist #maxims, #proverbs, #aphorisms?For example, I've always loved: "War is not healthy for children and other living things."
And, "Every billionaire is a policy problem."What are yours?
I'd really appreciate boosts for reach.
"The pen is mightier than the sword," and this is one of those pen projects.🙏

A guidebook for GOD’S BOOK
A Guide to Reading the Bible in One Year & A common man’s commentary by Harold David Conley
Day 190 - Proverbs Chapters 1-4 - Poetry
Today we begin Proverbs. A "Proverb" is a simple and concrete
saying that expresses a truth based on common sense or the
practical experience of humanity. Solomon was the wisest man in
all the Bible with the exception of Jesus. His wisdom and
experience allowed him to observe truths that most of us would
gloss over. The Holy Spirit inspired him to write these simple
truths in the form of these proverbs.
The first nine chapters addresses "My Son". Solomon gives basic,
common sense instruction to serve as a guide for his
"son". Chapters 10 through 29 is a collection of Solomon's
proverbs. They do not seem to be in any particular order. Most
verses are independent of the others. Chapter 30 is from Agur
and Chapter 31 is from Lemuel. In today's reading, Solomon pleas
for his readers to listen to their fathers. He points out that wisdom
is the "principal thing". At the core of wisdom is this truth, "Trust
in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own
understanding."
Today, we would do well to heed God's wisdom.
In the Shadow ... don't miss Jesus! Man's wisdom is nothing
like God's wisdom. It was the wisdom of God that moved Him
to give His only Son, Jesus, for sinners like us. How many of us
would do that, much less call it "wise"? Christians trust His
wisdom. Are you a Christian?
