Snippet I liked from today in #JewishBookofDays.
MORDECHAI REPRESENTS THE DESIRE IN US NOT TO BOW DOWN TO ANYONE. HAMAN SYMBOLIZES THE DESIRE IN US FOR POWER OVER OTHERS. SOMETIMES THE CONFLICT BETWEEN THEM FLARES UP INSIDE US. THE BATTLE OF MORDECHAI AND HAMAN TEACHES US TO CHERISH OUR FREEDOM YET BE WARY OF OUR WISH TO RULE OTHERS. Jill Hammer PhD The Jewish Book of Days: A Companion for All Seasons

Obsessed with this siddur. I’ve searched for one that feels like “mine” for ages and this one felt like coming home the moment I opened it. #antizionist #antizionistjew #siddur #jewish #davening
Cover of the Siddur Tatum Tz’rurah, gold embossing on green. Stickers that came with the siddur peeking out from under, one reading Prayer is a Disruption Tactic. Sticker sheet with four text stickers: “The LITURGICAL MOVEMENT must become a REVOLUTIONARY MOVEMENT” - Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel "DAVENING is a MOVEMENT TACTIC ZIONISM is a CHILLUL CHASHEM PRAYER is a DISRUPTION TACTIC Title page: FREE THE OPPRESSED: An Antizionist Evening Prayerbook
