HRE23 | Grade 9 | What’s the point of all this stuff?

“They tried to kill us, we won, let’s eat!” That’s the motto of many Jewish holidays. Or is it? Ever wonder why we sit in it a hut for a week and hold a lemon? Or whether sushi is kosher? (mmm…. sushi!) Or what happens if a Jew gets a tattoo? Be part of this class discussion to find out the difference between a prophet and a psychic. Or the difference between a Jew in the desert, a Jew in the ghetto and a Jew in the new millennium. Or even the difference between falafel and shwarma—yes, in true Jewish style, we are real foodies, and food is a hot topic in class!
