Consider this story on CHI:
Shluchim all over the United States received an unmarked package in recent weeks containing missionary Hebrew New Testaments along with other missionary materials.
The packages arrived in non-descript packaging printed with “Wishing you a Shana Tova – a gift from an anonymous friend.”
“These recent events demonstrate that the missionary threat to the Jewish community is more serious than ever” wrote Rabbi Zalman Kravitz of Jews for Judaism, in an email responding to Shluchim who have received these packages.
“I got it, recognized it right away and I threw it into the garbage” said a Shliach.
Nonsense. If the missionaries think that sending New Testaments to the shluchim was a wise way to spend their money, they obviously don't understand the people they are targeting. We should be relieved and amused. Chillax, Rabbi Kravitz.
What about the all yiddish NT sent to the toshevei hashechuna - kan teziva heshem es habrocha . . . with Yechi on the inside cover!

ReplyDeleteShould you ever trust anyone?
ReplyDeleteAh, I once was seated next to a Russian J for J. He told me about Jesus riding a donkey and then asked for my leftover kosher chicken. He also asked for my cell phone number but that I wouldn't give him.
ReplyDeleteSilly gooses.
After ascertaining htat this fellows mother was Jewish, I tried to put tfillin on him. Didn't work.
