Hi! Did you er, “grasp” that last week’s hand-gesture cufflinks were the Kohen’s hand formation for the meal offering? You did? Nice! You must be a Kohen. Or smart. Or both.
Cowabunga! Shredd-y or not, here comes another edition of the cufflink game! What might these have to do with this week’s parsha? Oh snap, I’ll be shell-shocked if you don’t know, because the answer is more obvious than you think. Shabbat shalom, all you scute-y pies!
Also, let me take this opportunity to wish all of you a Chag Sameach! I hope any of my Haggadot are at your seder table, and I hope you enjoy your quality time with your families. Feel free to spill grape juice all over my books. Nothing would please me more.
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 cuff links, and you tell us how it ties into the parsha of the week. E-mail your guesses, educated and otherwise, to thejewishcufflink@jewishlink.news and we’ll publish the best and most creative answers a week later. Have fun
