The purpose of this blog is to act as a fist to the face of the Jewish conscience and to jar Jews out of oblivion. It is a call to return to the Torah, to start the process of tshuvah gemura, and to rid the collective body of the infectious "shtetl syndrome". The Jewish Fist is also a warning to the enemies of the Almighty, whether it be the Arab Amalakites, or the mixed multitude within. The Jewish Fist has risen, and when it descends, G-d help you!
" Thou comest to me with a sword and a spear and a shield, but I come to thee in the name of the L-rd of Hosts, the G-d of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast humiliated..." (I Samuel, 17:45-47)
Reflections on the most misunderstood Jewish festival. A great chag to be sure, but one which most Jews have tragically distorted. Meet the real Maccabees.
