A Different "Megillah"

It's hard to believe that just last week was Purim and here in Shiloh, we read, or listened to, Megillat Esther four times. After twenty-seven years in Shiloh, celebrating double Purim is easy and natural. I can't even imagine it as only one day.

A "megillah" is a "scroll" or "story." The book of Ruth, read on Shavuot, is also called a "megillah." But the "megillah" in the title here is a different one entirely. I'm referring to the Gantseh Megillah, a monthly internet magazine on Jewish topics. Take a look. There's a very broad range of writers to choose from.

Enjoy
