Legacies . . .His and Ours.

Yes, Aleppo is Part of Obama's Legacy

* * * So now, maybe, it's time to think about OUR legacy. Yours and mine.

As you know, my Dry Bones cartoons fight against antisemitism and BDS. I distribute these Dry Bones cartoons through many channels, at no charge to you and to my other readers, but the operation costs me an annual $100,000. So how, I wondered, can I find this annual $100,000? I then thought of “the 36”. The Lamed Vavnikim. Let me explain. Medieval Jewish mystics wrestled with a baffling question; “Given the wickedness of humanity and the cruelty of the world, why doesn’t an angry Creator simply destroy his creation?” Pouring over both Biblical and “hidden” texts they deduced that in every generation there are 36 people, hidden from view, whose righteousness prevents the divine destruction of our world. In the Hebrew numerological system, the two Hebrew letters Lamed and Vav, written as a word, represents the number 36. And so the hidden righteous “thirty-sixers” who save the world are called the Lamed Vavnikim.

So how will I raise our annual budget of $100,000?
The answer is simple. But the search is difficult. I need to find my Thirty Sixers. . . . my “Lamed Vavnikim”. Thirty Six righteous people who would each give $3,000 a year to help turn this often wicked world into “a better place” (Tikun Olam).

It'll be YOUR legacy.

Israeli Voters (1973)

Today's Golden Oldie is from 1973.

I started doing Dry Bones on January 1, 1973, which means that the cartoon feature is now celebrating its thirty-sixth year! That's "twice chai".

The number 36 has special significance in Jewish numerology. Hebrew uses the letters of the alphabet to represent both words and numbers. The Hebrew word for life is chai and is spelled with the letters chet and yud. Chet is 8 and yud is 10, thus chai can be read both as the word "life" and the number "18".

"Twice chai" is "36" ...spelled with a lamed and a vav. .

Tradition teaches that the creator will allow the world to continue as long as at any given time there is a minimum of thirty-six good people in the human race.They are called the lamed-vavniks.

So this is a special year for me. It's Dry Bones at thirty-six! "Twice chai".

Congratulate me!
