    Assumptions

    No such event seems to come to my mind. I suppose that as long as you're polite and respectful, you'll usually receive the same courtesy.

    Second week of third season of excavations

    So, the second week of excavations of the third season at Tel Tibneh has come and gone. Here's a rundown of our progress: We were joined this week by students from an Israeli teachers' college, which doubled and maybe tripled our manpower. On one hand, it was a lot of added work for the staff...

    First week of third season of excavations

    As I've tried for the last couple of years, here's a summary of the first week of the third season (and likely the last) of my department's excavations at Tel Tibneh in southwestern Samaria: This season's main goal is finding other remnants of the hypothesized monumental Herodian-period...

    To Shulchan Aruch or to not Shulchan Aruch.

    I don't know what video this is, but if anything he should first focus on the Beit Yosef. The Shulchan Aruch is a condensed version of the Beit Yosef written in a more simplified manner. So I can only ask you: did he even talk about the Beit Yosef? I disagree that Orthodoxy was born then. One...

    Jewish Messiah

    The first step is establishing peace for the Jewish people in the Land of Israel. I think the rest of the nations will follow after, but obviously they will have to hash out peace deals amongst themselves. The Jewish Messiah isn't supposed to serve as the UN's secretary general.

    Why didn't Chizkiyahu sing in praise?

    I thought of this idea about a month ago, when a friend of mine hy"d was KIA in Rafiach. But I haven't thought about it since, so it might come across as half-baked. This morning I thought it would be relevant to share with regards to 17th of Tamuz and the Three Weeks. There's a gemara that I...

    Thank you, though I don't celebrate my secular birthday. In fact, there was so much action on the news the night before (Motzei Shabbat) that it didn't even register to me that the next day (yesterday) was the 14th.

    Israel Strikes Designated "Safe Zone," Killing at Least 90 People and Injuring About 300

    Well, they both despise Israel, so there's that. The Red Crescent reported significantly lower numbers. But you and the NY Times and many other news outlets pretty consistently prefer Hamas's numbers. Well, you do you, I suppose.

    Israel Strikes Designated "Safe Zone," Killing at Least 90 People and Injuring About 300

    Not that I think you'd care but the IDF claims that the assault took place at a compound near the so-called safe zone. I find it interesting, though hardly surprising, that you accept Hamas's facts on this.

    The archaeological and historical evidence of the early history of the Jews before 600 BCE.

    There are two points: First, the image you copied and translated is that of a modern Torah scroll. The script of modern Torah scrolls is very similar to the script used in modern Hebrew. Second, it was easy for the program to translate because ancient Hebrew is pretty similar to modern Hebrew...
