The Puppet Yeshiva wishes all of our friends and supporters a happy and kosher Passover, Chat Kosher ve-Sameach and wants to remind everyone that Pesach was when we stopped being Pharaohs puppets and became Hashems puppets.

Given all the uproar within the Jewish community about the recent revelation that the Israeli Chief Rabbinate has not been accepting the letters of American Rabbis as to the Jewishness of immigrants to Israel, on the one hand The Puppet Yeshiva feels the pain of not being accepted as Jewish, given that many will still not count a Puppet towards a minyan.

On the other hand, this incident underscores the importance of following the mesorah (tradition) of one's teachers and Puppets are much better at following orders than people. Perhaps there should be more Puppets and fewer humans in Yeshiva.

The Talmidim of the Puppet Yeshiva have been discussing whether they should have night seder Tuesday night.

On the one hand they don't use toilet paper (missing that part of the anatomy) and they are no longer allowed to play cards.

On the other, they try to stay far away from Avodah Zarah as they don't want their noses cut off.

The maskana is that the Rosh Yeshiva will giving a shiur klali, so that the talmidim can get some sleep.

One of the chiddushim from a talmid (student) of The Puppet Yeshiva this past Shabbos:

When Yitzchak Avinu (our forefather Isaac) said: The voice is the voice of Jacob and the Hands are those of Esav (ha-Kol Kol Yaakov, ve-ha-yadayim yeday Esav), in last week’s parsha, clearly Yaakov Avinu was using a life-size Esav puppet to trick his father.

How could Yaakov have fit into Esav’s clothes?

The Puppet Yeshiva is currently debating introducing Bechinos (tests) into the Yeshiva to measure students progress.

The students/puppets objected, claiming that it would hurt Torah Lishmah (study for its own sake).

But the Rosh Yeshiva put down his hand and the puppets all folded.

The Puppet Yeshiva wishes everyone that they should be inscribed and sealed for a good year with bountiful blessings.

And remember: The most important part of Tefillah on Rosh HaShannah, as every puppet knows, is showing up, keeping quiet and being on the right page.

We wish everyone much hatzlochah in your learning as we begin this Elul Zman.

And remember, as we tell all the puppets in the Yeshiva, it does not matter how much sinks in, but rather how obedient a puppet you are.
