Honor Joe Biden!

 

Chad Gayda

Then came the Holy One, blest be He,
And destroyed the angel of death
That slew the butcher
That killed the ox
That drank the water
That quenched the fire
That burned the stick
That beat the dog
That bit the cat
That ate the kid my father bought for two zuzim.
Chad Gadya, Chad Gadya

Chad Gadya Joe Biden!

How should next Monday’s Democratic national convention honor Joe Biden? Will he be remembered in the future? The song above is song by children after a Passover seder.  Every Passover Moses is remembered, even though it has been more than thousands of years. Moses was an adopted Prince of Egypt, who gave it all up to lead the People of Israel in service to the Holy One. Not only did Moses free the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, part the Red Sea, receive the Ten Commandments, and lead the Israelites in the desert, but he did not enter the Promised Land.

“Then Moses went out and spoke these words to all Israel:  “I am now a hundred and twenty years old and I am no longer able to lead you. The Lord has said to me, ‘You shall not cross the Jordan.’ The Lord your God himself will cross over ahead of you. He will destroy these nations before you, and you will take possession of their land. Joshua also will cross over ahead of you, as the Lord said.” Deuteronomy 31:1-4.

Sound familiar? Will you be fondly remembered, Joe Biden? Oh you WILL be fondly remembered, ....you definitely WILL be fondly remembered..... if not for thousands of years, for a very long time.  Joe, come on in and sit a spell. There will always be a place at the table for you!
