Limerick Book
"There Once Was A Man From Canaan . . . " The Five Books of Limerick
A collection of Limericks - one for every torah portion. Makes a great gift.
As a rabbi, the challenge of finding five perfect lines of poetry to encapsulate every portion in the yearly cycle of Torah readings became something of an obsession for me as I approached my 25th year on the pulpit. I started sharing them with friends and posting them on
A collection of Limericks - one for every torah portion. Makes a great gift.
As a rabbi, the challenge of finding five perfect lines of poetry to encapsulate every portion in the yearly cycle of Torah readings became something of an obsession for me as I approached my 25th year on the pulpit. I started sharing them with friends and posting them on social media. Soon, other people began posting their limericks in response. After receiving several requests to publish them in book form, I finally gave in.
My goal in writing this book is to teach, entertain, and inspire others to understand that Torah study can and should be multi-dimensional. Some of these limericks simply tell a story. Others refer to midrashic and Talmudic passages. Some portions have only one limerick - others have two or three. All of them are written with love. I hope you enjoy them and will share them in classes, sermons, around the Shabbat and seder table and anywhere words of Torah are expressed.
