Leather gifts for a strict Jewish woman?

Posted by admin on November 29th, 2010 and filed under Jewish Gifts | 5 Comments »

I’d like to buy my boss, who is leaving, a gift of a scarf and gloves. Obviously I’m not talking about pigskin, but would bovine leather be a problem?

Bovine leather is not a problem and there is no prohibition on wearing such garments.

Just a note on what some others have said regarding pigskin. Others have stated that pigskin is OK- however, this is not universally true. Some Chareidim follow a stricter ruling that we are not allowed to derive benefit from a pig- and under that ruling not only would its meat be forbidden for consumption but so would other products derived from it such as leather. Obviously medical usage is allowed due to the law of pikuach nefesh.

Posted by admin on November 24th, 2010 and filed under Jewish Art | 9 Comments »

World-renowned historian and cultural critic Simon Schama is best known as the droll, erudite host of the BBCs A History of Britain and Simon Schamas Power of Art. But he also indulges in a secret passion: collecting and recounting a vast array of Jewish jokes. Schama joins Festival artistic director Lawrence Weschler to share some of his funniest jokes and unpack their complex cultural resonances in a sort of klezmer slapdown. Simon Schama is professor of history and art history at Columbia University and the author of over a dozen books. His articles have appeared in The New Yorker and The New York Review of Books.
