(JNS) In the United States
and worldwide, Purim begins on
the evening of Monday, March 9,
and continues through the day
of Tuesday, March 10. (Shushan
Purim, celebrated in walled cities
like Jerusalem, starts a day later,
Tuesday through Wednesday.)
The holiday is rooted in Jewish
survival in the Persian Empire,
thanks to the bravery and Jewish
pride of Mordechai and Esther.
In the face of destruction and
Haman’s evil plots, Jews not only
survived, but flourished.
The holiday also takes place in
the Jewish month of Adar, known
for celebration and happiness.
Outside, there’s crazy dancing
to blaring music, often on the tops
of cars if there’s no room on the

An update on the life of Israelis today, the
economic miracle of Israel and the security
threats to the Israel and its people. ,

streets or sidewalks. Costumes
range from traditional kings and
queens, to animals, sports stars,
superheroes and more. Anything
goes. In fact, if you’re not dressed
in a crazy outfit, you tend to
stick out like the proverbial sore
thumb. At the Machane Yehuda
open-air market in Jerusalem, I
once saw a group of kilted Scots
whirling to the skirl of bagpipes.
As my Israeli cousins handed me
a bottle of something fizzy they
chortled “It’s Purim.” It’s loud,
deliriously happy and everyone is
your friend.
Inside, the main symbols
of Purim are festive eating
and drinking, which can be
interpreted as getting drunk and
sampling hamantaschen after
filled hamantaschen. It is written:
“One must drink on Purim until
that person cannot distinguish
between cursing Haman and
blessing Mordechai” (Megillah
7b). In Israel, there is no need
to bake. Every store, restaurant
and corner cafe displays heaps
of the three-cornered pastries,
symbolic of the wicked Haman’s
hat. As Queen Esther is said to
have eaten a vegetarian diet in
order to keep kosher while living
in the palace of King Ahasuerus,
enterprising cooks may serve
up Aromatic Chickpeas and
a Poppy-Seed Vinaigrette to
pour over fresh avocados. In
response to requests for the
Hasty Hamantaschen recipe, the
kid-friendly version is included
below.
Of course, there are also some
required activities: four mitzvahs
associated with the holiday. Jews
are supposed to hear the Megillah
read; give to the needy (matanot
la’evyonim)-, arrange and give gifts
of food to friends and neighbors
(mishloach manof); and share in a
festive meal.
Happy
Samayach!
