Yiddish Word of the Day!
Mensch: The word “Mensch”, in Yiddish, is “someone to admire and emulate, someone of noble character.
“Leo Rosten, author of the lexicon "The Joys of Yiddish", says a "mensch" is a term that Jews grew up on in their childhood. The Jewish mother frequently told her child "Be A Mensch" . To "Be a Mensch" is the greatest praise and to say to someone that he is not a "Mensch" is the biggest put down.
Being a "mensch" is not at all related to success, wealth or social status. A judge can be a slob, a millionaire can be detestable, a professor can be sleazy and a Doctor can be unscrupulous.
A Mensch is many things and one simple thing. A mensch does what is right because it is right towards family, towards strangers, at home and in public. When people behave with honesty, integrity, consideration and respect they themselves prosper as does society at large. By spreading mensch-like behavior we can make our society happier, healthier and more successful. (https://beamensch.com/what-is-a-mensch/in-our-words/)

Yiddish Word of the Day!
Kvell: to feel or express joy or triumph
“There is a fine art to kvelling. Kvelling is not boasting or bragging; it’s quieter. It’s the pride you feel when you witness your older child patiently helping the younger one finish a puzzle. It’s also the satisfaction you feel because it means they might have been listening to you after all.
True kvelling is not calculated; it happens in the moment, like when your kid rounds home plate and his teammates give him a high-five, or when your husband is called up to the stage for an award. Kvelling wells up until you burst with joy and pride. You just can’t help it.”

Welcome to the Jew and Gentile Podcast.
From the Scriptures:
Chris and Steve begin their study of the Book of Leviticus by reading
John 5:39 “You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me"
Exodus 40:34-38: “Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Moses could not enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. In all the travels of the Israelites, whenever the cloud lifted from above the tabernacle, they would set out; but if the cloud did not lift, they did not set out—until the day it lifted. So the cloud of the Lord was over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the Israelites during all their travels."

Tsuris: Tsuris means “problems” in Yiddish. It derives from the Hebrew word for “narrow” or “constriction,” tsar. When a person is surrounded by troubles a person would say they are af tsuris, “on troubles.” And when they are getting a real walloping, you can describe their situation is gehakte tsuris, “chopped troubles.”
