Purim
Purim is often considered a minor Jewish holiday, but it actually is an important holiday that teaches biblical resolutions to far reaching modern day social issues. Most of us think of the holiday as an excuse to hold a costume party, but the importance of the holiday is found in the teachings of “Meggilat Esther” or the Scroll of Esther. Below are photos of unidentified kids enjoying the holiday.
