Thank you to everyone who played over Shabbat! Everywhere I went, people offered answers, even though I was bundled up and unrecognizable in that arctic blast. Brrr.

Last week’s cufflinks were the Angry Birds, because:

1) The Israelites were angry birds in the desert.

2) So they got food in the form of manna and quail.

3) After crossing the Red Sea, they sang shira.

4) Speaking of red, that’s the name of that particular Angry Bird.

Thanks for tolerating all my puns as well. There will be more of that.

Now then, on to this week. I’m going to stress your brain cells a little. Think hard, deep and wisely, and most of all, know the parsha. If you see me on Shabbat, please feel free to offer an opinion. Shabbat shalom, everybody!

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!
