Writer. Former rabbi. One typo, and I could've been a former rabbit. Here for the conversations.
I see protesting is the new patriotism.

It's also Talmudic.

Holy Moses. I knew about Jacob Riis from the photographer historians at B&H Photo, but never knew this part! Especially considering this beautiful shot of his of a Jewish man observing Shabbos in a tenement.

In honor of all these top percentage badges, gonna bring over from the bad place, the best of this thread of the 12th century Raavad insulting Maimonides (yes, that Maimonides).

Page 249: "By the life of my head, there's no point here."
Page 271: "The mind cannot accept any of this."

in which @scalzi.com as is his creative wont invents a new type of music.

Which would be a great name for a rock band.

Traditionally, every single Jewish "house of prayer" is in fact a "house of study" and has an extensive library open to the public, the sanctuary doubles as a reading room and study hall, and very often they have a separate reading room.
