25/12/2020

2 Comments

 
Here are past posts to get you in a seasonal mood:
  • NEW!: How Jewish was Yoshke?
  • Rav Avigdor Miller on New Years 2000 (Y2K)—He speaks about that day in general, not Y2K.
  • A Seasonal Gem from Rav Avigdor Miller
  • 'Tis the Season of Creepy Customs...Tra-la-la-la!

Wow, I read the answer on the Yoshke, sheker hanavi, post in Rav Miller, zt'zl's name.
Very interesting. I had heard something to this effect before, but not fully.

Yes, I had a similar reaction the first time I read it. He possessed an unusual amount of knowledge, both of Torah & other aspects of the world, and it really shows.
