The Jewish feasts encourage people “to travel back in time and try to experience the world of the ancient Middle East.” (p.80) What can that mean for us?
God asks Jonah, “Do you do well to be angry?” What does He mean by this? How does He illustrate His point?
Jacobs’ goal is to “look beyond the weirdness (of some customs), to what it means.” (p.87). What things does he discover by doing this?
Sometimes “in the name of truth, you can’t be afraid to take a left turn from polite society and look absurd.” (p. 89) Give some examples of people who have done this.
