hamantaschen, that's the food most closely related to Purim.

It's a three cornered pastry filled with any of several sweet things, could be prune, apple, something we call "mun" or "mon" which is like poppy seeds in honey.

A couple of explanations of the name are Haman's hat (three cornered was the style of the day), or possibly Haman's ear, or even the triangle shaped flap on a man's pants pocket...most go with the hat theory.

Now I gotta check out DMV's link...

The Book of Ester never mentions God.

But yes, we are certainly charged with being Gods hands and feet on earth.

Many of us Christians regularly pray for Israel and the Jews.

I have a feeling that a large scale physical fight (on top of the spiritual one) isn't far off.

And Frank, today I preached about the tragic disrespect and threats against both sons of Abraham: Isaac & Ishmael.
