Say it ain't so, Rabbi.<br /><br />Rabbi Scherman---Please stick to Artscroll, a wonderful translator of Chumash and Talmud, but a highly questionable publisher of Jewish history. Spend more time investigating your office about the Photo-Shopped photos, omissions of details, exaggeration of others and altogether rather fanciful biographies that your company produces. Why are you lending your prestige to this nonsense? Have some time on your hands? Play a game of checkers with my nephew Henry who's always bothering me with his earmuffs and runny nose as soon as the temps fall below 65 Farenheit, or ping-pong with Tante Magda and we'll consider it chessed..Pickle a tomato or onion'l. Learn how to paint or better yet, take lessons on the tin whistle, kazoo or bagpipe, with or without the Scottish kilt.<br />C'mon Rabbi S., you can't be serious.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633952367455665536.post-58778171298441413772014-03-28T18:44:44.502+03:002014-03-28T18:44:44.502+03:00R' Shmuel Yaakov Klein might be the only one o...R' Shmuel Yaakov Klein might be the only one of that bunch with a secular education, he at least has a Masters if not a Doctorate.

Though he had other , real Jewish names.<br /><br /> ESTHER= Babylonian ISHTAR = Lady avodah zorah name for a certain star. Hence, our English word, STAR. ( See mesechte Megillah)<br /><br />MORDECHAI= Babylonian MARDUK ( Merodach)= their avodah zoro name.<br /><br />FEIVISH= PHOEBUS, Greek or Latin name.<br /><br />ALTE= German for old.<br /><br />ALTER= ditto.<br /><br />TZARTEL = German for tender, morphed into the Yiddish tzartel.<br /><br />FISHEL= Fisch, German for fish.<br /><br /><br />FERDY (aka Freddy)= My former nasty boss. From the German PFERD=Horse.<br /><br />While we're at it, let's deal with our family names. Goyishe, mostly German non-Jewish names such as , Goldstein, Rosenbloom, Rothstein, Klein, Krauss, Gross, Strauss, Weinberg, and Hebraicize them to Halevi, Hacohen, Yisraeli et al.<br /><br />Practicising what I'm preaching, I'm preparing upon Aliyah BE"H to choose either Ben-Gurion,Ben-Sarah,Ben-Tzion, Tzioni,Ben -Yehuda,Ben-Zev. <br /><br />My daddy would've been proud of me. <br />This is a glaring example of why you're turning off so many of us.<br />You should be ashamed of yourselves, spending time with this hefkeirus- narishkeit.<br />Reading books, enjoying arts of any genre and discipline enjoying a ball game once in awhile, listening to radio or tv ( where believe it or not you can learn something of value, appreciate G-D's world, appreciate HIS creation) preparing for a career,is highly problematic for you due to bittel Torah issues. But tying up the platchiker oylem's time to micro-minutiae a name for pappa is not.<br /><br />Listen.... My MOMMY and DADDY didn't raise a fool.<br /><br />Your game is up. Resign your positions, take the F train to a sweat shop and go punch a friggin' clock like the rest of us.You're an embarrassment-the whole lot of you.<br /><br />Prediction:<br /><br /> When you all come to consensus about what to call him, the rather newly rediscovered , now trendy phrase DAS TORAH will be used by the shuckling, hynotized robots to shut down any and all debate.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
