Purim

Modern anti-Semitism, and especially this year's miraculous bombing of Iran's Supreme Leader & almost all of his military heads has many parallels in G-d's miraculous salvation in the Megilla, but especially in the Midrashim on Esther. Iran and President Trump can help us understand Haman & Achashverosh, as well as the difference between Christians and Moslems today!

"As a mother of several small children, it is not easy for me to go out on Shabbos to hear Parshas Zachor. Am I required to do so?"

The Month of Adar, in which the threat of destruction of the Jewish People turned into their salvation, is a time of great rejoicing.
