Hello to all Israelis Forumers ! Hope you are going fine
Just a small question..
I've recently read the term "Purim" a few time around here... and i am wondering what it is exactly..
A traditionnal celebration ? A kind of "springbreak" ? don't know what else ?
If U could enlight me up... Thanx !
Regards

purim is all about costumes...
this sunday people will dress up in costumes and march the streets in all kinds of parades (from school or whaever) with music and happiness.
there's a story behind all this, maybe someone else will tell it.

it's the jewish version of halloween... sans the trick or treating and wrapping your neighbour's tree with toilet paper, leaving a burning bag of dogshit on their porch and egging their cars

taken from holidays.net:
"Purim is the most festive of Jewish holidays, a time of prizes, noisemakers, costumes and treats. The Festival of Purim commemorates a major victory over oppression and is recounted in the Megillah, the scroll of the story of Esther. Purim takes place on the fourteenth and fifteenth days of Adar, the twelfth month of the Jewish calendar. This year (2003) Purim begins at sundown on Monday the 17th of March"
and here's the abridged version of megilat esther:

"They tried to kill us, they failed, let's eat!"
