Last week’s cufflinks were the classic theater masks, representing:
1) The Israelites went from the high of matan Torah to the low of the chet ha’egel.
2) The inability to see Hashem’s face.
3) Moshe Rabbeinu’s veil.
Now, you’ve been waiting all week, haven’t you? Well then, let’s keep playing Cufflinkle! What do these objects have to do with this week’s parsha? Shabbat shalom y’all!
For years now, Martin Bodek has been wearing cuff links themed to the week’s parsha, to stimulate conversation around the Shabbat table. Naturally, it begged for a wider audience, and The Jewish Link seems like a perfect home—especially in name. Every week, we’ll present the cuff links, and you tell us how it ties in to the parsha of the week. E-mail your guesses, educated and otherwise, to [email protected] and we’ll publish the best and most creative answers a week later. Have fun!
