!פורים שמח

Dear iTaLAM Family,

As were prepare to celebrate the joy of Purim, the iTaLAM team would like to encourage you to add joy, creativity and a sense of renewal to Hebrew and Jewish studies! Let’s take a moment to reflect on how innovation relates to the holiday of Purim. The term “ve’nahafoch hu” (the occurrence of the opposite of what is expected or planned) symbolizes a reversal – from bad to good, and can also be a wonderful way to introduce something new and creative. Innovation requires an openness to do things differently than usual, and Purim offers us the opportunity to experience something different and new, and to be playful! To read more about this, as well as personal Purim greetings from Shoshi Becker, click here.

May we all enjoy this holiday of reversal and renewal!

Happy Purim!
