It's mandatory for an observant Jew. On Purim they MUST get drunk!


You've got that right. When I celebrated Passover with my Israeli friend's family.. they said I have to drink four glasses of wine.

I only drink wine for Shabbat and Jewish holidays.



As a form of celebration or its advisory to do so?

A glass of red dry wine after dinner; and a few liters of beer with friends on friday night, or saturday night; Never befriend the abstinent; he can be secret police informer or muslim.;) 
Jeremiah 8:11-17

11 They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious. Peace, peace, they say, when there is no peace.

12 Are they ashamed of their loathsome conduct? No, they have no shame at all; they do not even know how to blush. So they will fall among the fallen; they will be brought down when they are punished, says the LORD.

13 'I will take away their harvest, declares the LORD. There will be no grapes on the vine. There will be no figs on the tree, and their leaves will wither. What I have given them will be taken from them.'

14 Why are we sitting here? Gather together! Let us flee to the fortified cities and perish there! For the LORD our God has doomed us to perish and given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against him.

15 We hoped for peace but no good has come, for a time of healing but there was only terror.

16 The snorting of the enemy's horses is heard from Dan; at the neighing of their stallions the whole land trembles. They have come to devour the land and everything in it, the city and all who live there.

17 See, I will send venomous snakes among you, vipers that cannot be charmed, and they will bite you, declares the LORD.

The biggest problem the cops have on Purim is from the really straight-laced religious Jews 'coz they're not used to booze and they get hammered and go wild. :laugh:

Forgive my ignorance, but when is Purim?

a month before Passover. on the 14th day of the month of Adar. (sometimes their is 2 months of Adar in the Jewish calender- fduring a leap year.)
The Academy of Elijah taught, whoever studies the laws (of the Torah) every day, (he) is guaranteed to have a share in the World to Come.

‏119:139 צִמְּתַתְנִי קִנְאָתִי כִּישָׁכְחוּ דְבָרֶיךָ צָרָי
My zeal incenses me, for my adversaries have forgotten Your words.
‏119:141 צָעִיר אָנֹכִי וְנִבְזֶה פִּקֻּדֶיךָ, לֹא שָׁכָחְתִּי.
 I am young and despised; I have not forgotten Your precepts.

" A fool does not realize, and an unwise person does not understand this (i.e. the following:) When the wicked bloom like grass, and the evildoers blossom (i.e. when they seem extremly successful), it is to destroy them forever (i.e. they are rewarded for their few good deeds in this World, and they will have no portion in the World to Come!)

I drink sometimes. My stomach can not take more than 3 beers and I am on creatine for long time. When you take that alcohol is not the best thing to do ::)
Serbia will never surrender Kosovo to the breakaway province's ethnic Albanian majority or trade its territory for European Union or NATO membership,

Wines are good for health, they're good for your heart and they've got some rare antioxidants and the wine helps to resist bad cholesterol and increase the good one :) I buy one bottle of wine a month and drink one glass a day.

I recommend the quality wines of Yarden and Gamla.

Grape juice actually has most of the possitive effects of wine without the alcohol.
