Purim
I am trying to find some information on Purim. There is very little in the book of Esther, which is the origin of the festival that is observed in Judaism, and now also in Messianic Judaism/Hebrew Roots. I found this description on the net and wondered what others thought Thinking2

To a Festive Celebration for the Jewish Holiday of Purim

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 (2009) Purim begins at sundown on the 09th of March

So here for your entertainment are some fun Holiday things for you and your family. We've got stories of Queen Esther, King Ahasuerus, Mordechai, and Haman, we've got graggers to spin, and Hamantashan to bake! We hope you find something you like!

So bring your kids and tell your friends. And please stop by again.
