Why Purim is important in 2022 as the Russia-Ukraine war rages
Fox News
As Jewish people all over America celebrate Purim beginning Wednesday evening through Thursday night, Rabbi Pinchas Taylor shared with Fox News Digital his thoughts about the times we're living through, including the war in Ukraine — and the messages to hold onto closely.
"The holiday of Purim is celebrated by wearing costumes or masks, to resemble how God was ‘masked’ or hidden in natural events." "God may have been concealed during the horrible decree — but his providence was paving the way for victory." "We are not privy to know the ways of God. We pray that the hardships for all people end swiftly and peacefully."
He believes that the Jewish holiday of Purim, which falls on March 17, 2022, "provides the message we so desperately need."
