Hi! Last week’s cufflinks were turtles, but why? There weren’t any turtles anywhere in the parsha. What gives? Matter of fact, turtles don’t even appear in any of Tanach (though turtle doves sure do!) Turns out, my homonym with the parsha (Tzav! Get it?) threw people for a complete loop. Hey, I’ve got a varied arsenal, and I’m gonna use it.
And now, another round of Linknite, whaddya say? For hamwork, swill you tie these into the week’s pork-sha? Zoinks, this cudn’t squeally be that difficult to snort out. Sow give it your best shot. You know you bacon. Shabbat shalom y’all!
For years now, Martin Bodek has been wearing cufflinks 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 cufflinks and you tell us how it ties into the parsha of the week. Email your guesses, educated and otherwise, to [email protected] and we’ll publish the best and most creative answers a week later. Have fun!
