In my town there was a Rabbi who could do Cabbulah; he could call Abraham our father from the grave. But in this pig-eating country no one can be holy enough for the Name, blessed be It, to grant him the privilege. I don't believe the Shochetim kill the animals properly; the statutes are violated; even pious people eat tripha cheese and butter.
When the Temple has been destroyed these two thousand years." "It will be rebuilt, please God," said Reb Shemuel. "We must be ready for it." "Oh yes, I'll be ready Ha! Ha! Ha! A priest! Holy unto the Lord I a priest! Ha! Ha! Ha! Do you know what my holiness consists in? In eating tripha meat, and going to Shool a few times a year! And I, I am too holy to marry your daughter. Oh, it is rich!"
"Besides, will you deny they have the organ in their Sabbath services?" "No, I won't!" "Well, then!" said De Haan, triumphantly. "If they are capable of that, they are capable of any wickedness. Orthodox people can have nothing to do with them." "But orthodox immigrants take their money," said Raphael. "Their money is kosher', they are tripha," said De Haan sententiously.
He began to speak of his boy at the war nay, to read the letters to enthralled groups in the synagogue lobby groups that swallowed without reproach the tripha meat cooked in Simon's mess-tin. It was like being Gabbai over again. Moreover, Simon's view of the Boer was so strictly orthodox as to give almost religious satisfaction to the proud parent.
Many of their acquaintances and relatives were of an orthodox turn. A kosher dinner could be eaten even by the heterodox; whereas a tripha dinner choked off the orthodox. Thus it came about that even the Rabbinate might safely stoke its spiritual fires at Mrs. Henry Goldsmith's. Hence, too, the prevalent craving for a certain author's blood could not be gratified at Mrs.
I searched the Shass and a heap of Shaalotku-Tshuvos. I went and consulted the Maggid and Sugarman the Shadchan and Mr. Karlkammer, and at last we decided that the fowl was tripha and could not be eaten. So the same evening I sent for the woman, and when I told her of our decision she burst into tears and wrung her hands.
I caught a beadle's wife the other day washing her meat and butter plates in the same bowl of water. In time they will be frying steaks in butter, and they will end by eating tripha meat out of butter plates, and the judgment of God will come. But what is become of thine apple? Thou hast not gorged it already?" Moses nervously pointed to his trousers pocket, bulged out by the mutilated globe.
