pittsfield-jew

The first post says it all Shalom, This is the home of the Pittsfield Jew. Sure its neat to read about Jews in Brooklyn who are very observant but how about a not so observant Jew who lives in the Mid West?

Wednesday

Beverly and Branden were at the Hilton Hotel when Jonny arrived late. His headached so badly this morning that he drifted off to sleep before lunch. Maybe today he will stay an hour late. But Angelina has to approve it. Wendell called this morning while Jonny was walking Lucy. It was a short call. Wendell uninvited Jonny to Elizabeth's house in Florida. It was too short of a visit if Jonny could only fly Friday to Monday. There are many activities in Angelina's household that would have prevented such a trip. Wendell asked if Jonny could come for a week to the beach in the summer. Jonny said he would keep after Angelina about it.

Jonny is up to page 342 of The Eight.

Today he listened to the parsha Vayigash. It starts with Benjamin getting framed by Joseph. Judah forfeits his share in the world to come. The jews are put into Goshen a jewish suburb. The divine spirit only rests on a happy person. They remained in Egypt for 210 years. This is calculated. Moses was 80 years old when he left Egypt. Moses's mother was 130 years old when Moses was born. She was born at the time of the exile to Egypt. Two kingships descend from Judah and Joseph. Joseph asks is my father still alive when he reveals himself to his brothers. Why does he ask this question? There are at least 4 different answers to this question why was it asked.

Angelina was working at the flu clinic and Jonny watched the kids. The coffee pot got broken. Today Angelina called and ordered a new free one.
