Purim sameach! The Jewish community of Kazakhstan wishes everybody
joyous Purim!
Finally gragers rattled in our town! Adults made merry like children,
and children dressed in Esther's and Mordecai's costumes tried to behave like
adults.
A guest from Israel read the Book of Esther, and every time Haman's
name was pronounced there was great noise in the room. The memory of the villain
simply disappeared.
It is the day that the Jews stronger feel the importance of mutual
aid. It saved the Jews many times, and the history of Purim is one more evidence.
We rise a set glass of wine to the laud cheers "Lehaim!"
The Purimshpil scenario was written especially for children to take
part in it. Plenty of jokes, games, and riddles helped them to feel absolutely
free on the stage. The adults could not help laughing while Haman was led up
the stage by five- and six-year-old infants.
The youth club also prepared a sketch and was rewarded with cheers,
laughter, and applause. After the performance the guests and actors received
festive treatment. The celebration went on with Jewish songs and passionate
dances. Community members did not want to leave.
So, we went back to our source again - to the history and Tradition.
We wish everybody happy Purim!
