The deceased was a very big biker. On his back was a tatoo of a Magan David (Jewish Star), about 10-12 inches around. On his right upper arm was another tatoo, it was a flame, contained inside was the name "Leibish".<br /><br />So, has hard a life as this Jew had, growing and living Chutz L'Aretz, he found a way, even if not in accordance with Torah Law, to be proud of his Judaism and to fulfill the mitzvah of Honoring one's father: His name was xxxxxx ben (the son of) Leib.<br /><br />Kol HaKavod.<br /><br />HillelHillel Levinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02301924970969876523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2873285922620200649.post-36347722419574091332010-06-21T15:38:52.793+03:002010-06-21T15:38:52.793+03:00Anonymous: And I suspect those hard-working guards...Anonymous: And I suspect those hard-working guards appreciate your appreciation.

Thank you for reading, and commenting.<br /><br />At The Edge: I don't claim to have enough Hebrew to be infallible in my perceptions. But on the other hand, I know several guys who fit that description, to one degree or another, who were in Nachal Chareidi, or studied in yeshivot, or who otherwise care about their learning and their physical fitness levels. Two of them are sons of mine. Perhaps because they grew up the sons of soldiers, they have always seen "to protect and defend" as part of their job descriptions. In all likelihood, they might be mistaken for not being Torah scholars.<br /><br />I hope your fierce passion and love of Torah will help you to see past the uniforms people sometimes wear. I have been very surprised as I have begun to practice this new skill. It makes it so much easier to see the best in my fellow Jews.rutimizrachihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06809119908148195009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2873285922620200649.post-36053663757314630642010-06-20T22:19:21.733+03:002010-06-20T22:19:21.733+03:00Debating a Rashi!

It's very dubious that such dudes, "without excess cranial hair", and wires dangling in their ears and collars, who take much time to be physically fit, could even get close to a Chumash, let alone a Rashi.in the vanguardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11796434751654291581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2873285922620200649.post-11165747958800972452010-06-20T08:49:44.503+03:002010-06-20T08:49:44.503+03:00Love it!
