Weekly Riddle 4


A Video for E - the source of . . . (ask your rabbi if you can listen to this during sefira)

I am older than man, but as young as you.

Few live not in my rule

Who am I?


2 Points for anyone who can tell me what the Chabad version of this song (No E allowed!)

I don't suppose it's love?

Yetzer hara? He's older than man- was created as a snake, before Adam...as young as the person in question...he's pretty wise/smart at what he does- but is known as a "melech tipesh", and very few live not in his rule.

Nu, am I right?

What's the "E" that isn't allowed? And if I'm right, then the Chabad version would be, "Hey johnny...what are you doing in the market, you don't buy you don't sell, all you do is make trouble!"

Okay, let me know how many points (if any) I got...

this video!!!!!

chanie said...

LOL. Huh?

m said...

the song would be Bentche Shemtov's "Der Rebbe Zol Gezunt Zain"

e said...

Hmmm. I'll need to think about this one.

And what am I the source of? Ellipses?

e said...

subscribing (No, I didn't forget to do it last time.)

Mottel said...

The answer for the riddle will be forthcoming - let's give a bit of time for anyone else who wants to take a shot.

-The video is indeed Der Rebbe zal Gezunt Zain. 2 points for M!

-E . . . take a gander at the riddle. You are the source of the video, and you know that darn well!

e said...

Oh. I just didn't get what you meant.

Mottel said...

And the answer is . . . The Yetzer Hara! Chanie was right, so she gets 13 points! Now don't spend them all in one place . . .

chanie said...

Thank you, thank you. [curtsies]

I didn't watch the video, perhaps that's why I didn't get the other two....

What are the points good for?

Mottel said...

You can't just guess -watch the video?
They're good for whatever you want them for!

chanie said...

I never watch videos, lol. And you had a sfira warning also, so...

Hm, ok...I have to think about this one. It's a serious decision.
