So I have a friend who's been to Barcuh Marzel's House
Friday night we went for a Shabbat dinner at the Rabbi's house. Not sure if I ever mentioned it here, but we are regulars at the local Chabad these days (ye, even me!), I love going and love the family running it.
So Sima (she happens to be the Rabbi's daughter, but not in the stereotypical way - she's really cool) told me about her visit to Hebron when she was in Israel. She called the Chabad Rabbi in Hebron, and he gave her the number of a Baruch Marzel, who set her up with a place to stay, etc. She had no clue who that person was. She reports he seemed like an okay person, she realized he was an activist, but didn't know how famous he is until I told her. I tried to explain to her that he's probably the craziest person living today in Israel.
Which reminds me - next time I'm in Israel (which isn't planned for a long long time), I'm going to Me'arat HaMachpela. It's been a dream of mine since the first time I read about that place in elementary school. Who joins me?
