A female reader (yes, I added that to ‘Poison the Well’!) is critical of the “Esser Kedushos” focus here at Hyehudi.org.
I rephrase the argument:
Hyehudi is supposed to be about Judaism, without labels.
Well, “Judaism” includes a lot more than Jerusalem and even… the Holy Temple.
Your conscious inclusion of this song reminds me of the people who think about Shabbos all week long, and of nothing else. Every mitzvah you talk to them about, they find a way to connect to Shabbos (else they start dozing off).
“There are more things in heaven and earth, Hyehudi, than are dreamt of in your philosophy!”
Yikes. Maybe she’s right…
