Sorry to read that about how Hackney has deteriorated. I was born there and lived there in the early 1950s and for the most part really enjoyed my early youth there. One nice memory is that every Sunday morning a vendor would come along on a tricycle selling bagels( or rather bigals as they were...

I know this in no way answers the OP, but may be of interest. Below is Genesis 3 2-4 with the commentary by Rashi. Rashi says that the woman lied to the serpent by adding to the words God spoke , i.e. and you shall not touch it, He then says that the serpent made her touch the tree and she...

Well, that makes sense to me. I'm off to have nice day now. Cheers.:)

I couldn't edit the above post(not sure why). It should have read meditation, although I often need to mediate between me, myself and I.
