2016-03-02: Packing up Palmachim & Hadassah Chagall windows

That Wednesday we packed up & moved to Bet Zait in preparation for Jan & Arie's marathon teaching sessions on Thursday. Arie dropped Jan & me off @ the Hadassah hospital, a huge research/hospital facility in Jerusalem & Jan & I eventually found someone to let us into the synagogue featuring stained glass windows Chagall designed for the place. Each of the 12 windows represents one of the tribes of Israel, with biblical references strewn therein. After the woman with the key left, having started the explanatory CD, I was able to figure out how to start it again so we got to hear it twice. :) (Didn't mean to imply we packed up the windows.)

Side-view of the apartment building (I think).

A Parochet separates the Arc of the Covenant
(a.k.a. Torah) from the rest of the space. New to moi.

Your guess is as good as mine.

Martians, mayve?
