It’s possible — and even likely. The words of “Hava Nagila” were written in 1918 to celebrate the Balfour Declaration, the 1917 statement in which British government declared its support of a Jewish national home in Palestine. The first commercial recording was made in Germany in 1922, years before WWII. So it’s entirely possible that Jewish prison...
It’s unlikely that Ruth, Jonah’s grandmother who was an Auschwitz survivor from Germany, would go by safta, which is the Hebrew word for grandma. While German Jews did know biblical Hebrew, it’s likely that they would have either spoken German or Yiddish — and not Hebrew — at home, meaning it’s far more likely Ruth would go by bubbe (Yiddish) or om...

Revenge” — is actually attributed to George Herbert, a Welsh poet and priest who lived in the 16th and 17th centuries. That’s right, an actual priestwrote this line — tha...
HaGomel is a Jewish prayer of gratitude to God for survivinga great feat — a surgery, an accident, childbirth, and yes, possibly, even the Holocaust. It’s not necessarily an appropriate blessing for a wedding, unless the bride, husband, or someone in their family is overcoming in particular. Header image courtesy of Amazon studios.
