This Is the Reason Sukkot Ends as It Does (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are some forms of ancient pagan worship described by classical rabbinic sources that are so bizarre you could be forgiven for assuming they were invented for comic effect. The Talmud describes the worship of the Moabite god Baal Peor in particularly revolting terms. Its devotees relieved themselves in front of the idol. In one extraordinary story, a gentile woman who had recovered from a serious illness vowed to worship every idol in the world. But when she finally reached Peor and its pri

Jonas Hanway was not a man who was easily embarrassed. He was born in Portsmouth in 1712, and in adult life became a merchant, traveling through Russia and then Persia.

In 1544, a Flemish instrument-maker named Gerard de Kremer was arrested in Rupelmonde, near Antwerp, and thrown into the castle dungeon on suspicion of heresy. The charges amounted to very little: He had traveled widely, more than was considered normal and healthy, and he had written letters to the wrong kinds of people. Others arrested alongside him did far worse than he did — some were burned at the stake
The Lesson That Parshat Nitzavim Has for Each of Us Today (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Victor Lustig was born in 1890 in Arnau, today known as Hostinné, a small town in Bohemia. Later in life, he would introduce himself as a count whose dynasty had fallen on hard times – but this was total nonsense. His parents were middle-class Catholics who owned a tobacco store. Lustig was well educated and spoke five languages. But he had two qualities that often matter more than education and intelligence – he was charming, and he was patient. By his twenties, he had found his calling in life
