What is the most important book for Jews?

Circum: "Our cash-book"

My Purim disguise

The Happy Hubby

Joden boos op "man bijt hond"

If this was made by a Jew then most complainers would think it is kinda funny, not hilarious but just student-like cute. The whole discussion shows how exorbitantly some Jews react and how open (or easy) the media are to those complainers that claim (or are said) to speak for all Jews.

Cool Jew

I was brought up in mild non-religious traditional Jewish manner. The way I experienced my Jewishness evolved over the years. I would describe myself now as a conscious anti-theist. But when I saw my oldest son speaking to an Israeli girl it felt good. It seems that my intellect is built on a sticky layer of emotional inheritance of generations.

My Purim disguise:

The Invisible Man

It takes balls to be a real jew!

"A man with crushed testicles may not enter the assembly of the Lord." (Deut. 23)

Renaming "self-hating"

I suggest we call it "vicarious-truly-ashamed".

The chosen?

I do not think Esau would have given us that name.

Modesty is our middle name

A man from a promotion team makes polaroid pictures of people walking by. An orthodox jewish mother passes, four toddlers around her and one in the buggy. The man gives her the picture he just took from one of her kids.

I understand from her gestures that she wants pictures of her other kids too.

A priest asks the barber who just did his hair how much he has to pay. The barber answers "Nothing father, I don't ask money from clergymen." The next day the priest sends the barber a golden cross as thanks. A few days later a rabbi walks in and has his hair cut. The barber answers in the same manner to the question as how much it should cost. A few days later the rabbi sends four other rabbis.

I don't think it will be decent when I start shockeling my gear in public.

My Purim disguise:

I'll wear a yarmulke.

How do you feel?

Just call me Ahasverus

Israel does not attract me, not even for a free vacation,
nor am I particularly bound to any other soil or nation.

Because my friend, I am the Wandering Jew.

Jullie is jodenvolk

“Jullie is jodenvolk” ("You people is Jews").

An expression mostly used by Dutch Jews, after being addressed to as “jullie” (you people), to express their feelings about being labeled as aliens. Also the title of a book by Sal Santen 1915-1998.

“You people” is the description of a group about whom the speaker most probably has the usual (not necessarily negative) prejudgments, and I must admit that I have developed an allergy to it.

In my whole life whenever someone employed the words “you people”, “you are a Jew” was meant, something that automatically makes you feel an outsider. Extremely refreshing it felt when recently an orthodox Jew hurled “you people” at me.

How wonderful it is not to belong to any group anymore.
