Cute. But of course Rabbi Adlerstein, the Jews, contrary what Begin told Sadat, did NOT build the pyramids. Just read the Humash. Or do we say “Ein meshivin a ha-beidihot”?
[YA – I knew that. But just in case they want to reopen legal claims against the Jewish people for the monies we took on the way out of Egypt the last time – as a group of Egyptian attorneys tried just a few years ago, echoing the famous passage in the Gemara about the trial in front of Alexander – I don’t want to lose overtime charges on pyramid construction as part of the counterclaim.]
It was signed by “The Jews” on all the places I’ve seen this over the past week. Not sure what it has to do with “Israeli”‘s.
Post-Madoff, Jews aren’t going to have anything to do with any pyramids!
The pyramids were build hundreds of years before Avraham Avinu. He might have visited them during his descent there.
There ARE rather impressive structures today that were built during the time of the “New Kingdom” from which our ancesters were brought out. But most of them are in Upper Egypt; our ancestors lived in Lower Egypt. More learning is needed.
