If you conceal your vices, also conceal your virtues.
— Rabbi ibn-Zabara

UPDATED

Hi, loyal JWRers:


With the understanding that we have a number of non-Jewish readers, please find a slew of new articles -- thought provoking ones of various varieties below.

All work was completed before the onset of the holy days, Sunday at sundown.

We are suspending publication in observance of Rosh Hashana, in which Jewish tradition tells us the world -- and all who inhabit it -- are judged.

While there will be, of course, celebratory meals shared with family and almost-family, for much of the next 48 hours, observant Jews will spend most of the day and even part of the night in prayer and study. It's a solemn time of reflection and joyous anticipation of what is to come in the year ahead.

I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate your readership and ongoing kindness (including clicking) that keeps me going and the site alive!

May the coming year be one of health, happiness and inspiration!
