Today is day 167 of the war against Hamas. I’ve heard many people ask the question: How do we celebrate ______ when there are still hostages…when there are children and mothers starving in Gaza.
If you’ve had these thoughts, know that you’re not alone. Jews all over the world are holding these concerns.
However, we are on the edge of beginning one of the biggest celebrations of the year: Purim. During Purim, we are commanded to be celebratory, to feast, and to be merry.
