Words of Wisdom from a 112 Year Old Jew
« on: October 14, 2012, 03:42:28 PM »
May we all be as alert, on top of things, and as communicative as this example of a Yidden:

You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities
Duet 16:13-14

He is very wise man and he is also telling the truth.
Serbia will never surrender Kosovo to the breakaway province's ethnic Albanian majority or trade its territory for European Union or NATO membership,

I always think it's great to see people of advanced age who are still healthy and alert who are good people.

He's really right about how there can never be peace with the Arabs.

He has seen every attempt at peace with the arabs fail, and after so many times, one has to just say it is not going to happen...

I think he made a good point about there being a Biblical reason for it too.

Indeed, the axiom "Essau hates Yaakov" has been shown over and over again.

some people live so long; others die so young.  huh. 

But the real reason he survived for any length of time is that he came to Israel in 1937.  Had he stayed in Poland or Russia or wherever, he probably would have perished in the Shoah.

 I think he is Teimani (Yemenite). I dont know I might be wrong. Many of them live long healthy lives and stick strictly  to the Halachot of the Rambam including his Halahic rules and positions on healthy living including diet, exercise, hygiene, etc.
.   ד  עֹזְבֵי תוֹרָה, יְהַלְלוּ רָשָׁע;    וְשֹׁמְרֵי תוֹרָה, יִתְגָּרוּ בָם
4 They that forsake the law praise the wicked; but such as keep the law contend with them.

ה  אַנְשֵׁי-רָע, לֹא-יָבִינוּ מִשְׁפָּט;    וּמְבַקְשֵׁי יְהוָה, יָבִינוּ כֹל.   
5 Evil men understand not justice; but they that seek the LORD understand all things.
