Now With Haskama
Shifra reviewed my blog! I feel like I just got a haskama from the gedol hador— no wait, gedolat hador!
(and I don't mean this guy; he already gave me one, although Shifra's is a lot more eloquent)
«insert modest-but-proud acceptance speech here»
Have a gutyontef / hhag sameiahh, everybody!
(but especially Shifra)
And in the spirit of popularity, I've installed a hit counter on the side.
In other Sukot news, Alan Scott highly recommends Rabbeinu Bahhya's commentary on Succos and the Four Plants for those interested in Hippy-Orthodox, Indigenous, and similar 'earthy' streams of contemporary Jewish thought.
Oh, and be very careful what you say when discussing your ritual temporary holiday dwelling with Russian-speakers. вы-амаскил йидом.

Rabenu Bachya on Sukkot, as I state it, has a bunch of parallel ideas from other places thrown in too, btw. Maybe you can track down the specific references?
Btw I can't believe you wrote "vehamaskil yidom" in russian.
Some interesting (though a bit depressing) stuff in Abravanel on the 70 Bullocks.
gedolat hador!!!
Wow!
Does this mean my husband gets to bake the kugels now so I can sit and learn?
Good for you :)
Shifra:
yes, i think that IS what it means ;-)
Mobius:
heh cool, sounds like fun (except for the part involving spending shabbos with my brother) :-P
