sight unseen

The majority of Germans have never seen a living Jew.

Daniel, a German and a Rabbi, whose last name I’m afraid I didn’t catch. He’s one of three Rabbis who were ordained today in Dresden, Germany – the first Jewish religious officials to be ordained in that country since the end of World War II. Interviewed today on the PRI’s The World radio program.

So few words. So much suffering. Like Hemingway’s six word story: For sale: baby shoes, never used.
