I was always amazed by how these people lived their faith. This article and the beautiful pictures brought it all back to life! Thank you.

I actually read Zipora's book, borrowed it from a friend. It was a fascinating romp through the daily and weekly rituals in a busy Hasidic woman's life. She writes with a fresh simplicity. I have to admit though, wanting more out of her - more "inside dirt" I suppose. Which says not very nice things about me, does it. The Hasidim continue to fascinate, but they're wonderful neighbours.

Most of the disparaging comments about Hassidim I've heard were from secular Jewish friends.

The Hasidic community bolsters my sense of optimism every day as they care for their community and set a standard for all of us. Hope I’ll get a chance to read the book.

It's a great feeling to see your positive view about Jews. Great job.

I love all the photos too but especially the B&W one that leads off. My mouth is watering for some of those black-and-white cookies, though - I love them and haven't found good ones in the city yet.
