You’ll meet Esther and Uncle Mord Haman’s gonna be untoward King Ahashveros and his guards Whole Megillah? You won’t be bored Ratchet up, we’re gonna boo While we watch Haman attempting a coup Read in Hebrew, wear a nice crown As we take a ride to Shushan town. We’ll warn you now that you’re advised To dress up, wear a disguise If you don’t wan na be a schmuck You’re gonna camouflage We will scream “Chag Purim” When Esther goes and becomes Shushan’s queen She will save Jewish Shushanim From a plot which is really obscene Haman lies, real bad guy, save the day Mordechai, See it all at C to the B and I We’ll tell you all about it you don’t have to ask us why Because pure evil is never justified Get a grip and watch this skit Even though it’s a recording don’t you dare skip Watch us dance and laugh and sing C’mon let’s go, let’s do this thing. Now get your grogger and your costume And say “what a purim!” Eat a lot of hamantaschen And say “what a purim!” We will read the scroll of Esther Then say “what a purim!” So come on down to Shushan And holler “what a purim!”! GO THE DISTANCE (to the tune of Go The Distance from Hercules) I have often dreamed of a final scene Where there’s no cliffhanger, and no impending doom Yes an episode where the plot’s resolved I could turn off the TV and walk right out of this room I'll be there someday, I can go the distance All those episodes, I’ll be right here on this seat I’ll watch every scene ‘til I gain fifteen I will go the distance ‘til the series is complete But the shows are long, and I grow so tired Sometimes I doze off and I miss some turn or twist I don’t understand the next episode But I read the recaps - and learn everything I missed Here in quarantine, I can go the distance Plow through every scene, no I won't accept defeat It's a long long show, and the King’s a shmo, But I’ll go the distance ‘til the queen has Haman beat EYE OF THE TIGER KING (to the tune of Eye of the Tiger) Single now, back on the apps Did my time, took my chances Went the distance, cause in love I’m a sap Just a man and his will to survive So many times it happens too fast Your ex-wife rewrites the story Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past You must fight just to keep them alive I’m the king of the tiger And I’ll find a new wife Rising up to the challenge of that Vashti And I’ll pick from competitors This very night And I’m watching them all with the Eye of the Tiger King… DING DONG THE TIGER KING WILL DIE (to the tune of Ding Dong the Witch is Dead) Guard 1, Guard 2, Guard 3: Ding-dong! The king will die Which old king? The Shushan King Ding-dong! The Shushan King will die Make up an evil plan, use your brain and kill that man Make up a really evil plan He’ll die and away he’ll go Below, below, below Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out Ding-dong's the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low Let them know the Tiger King will die! Guard 1: As a Guard of Shushan City, In the county of Babylon, We’ll kill the king most regally Guard 2: You can bet it’s going to be illegally. Then he Guard 3: Then he Guard 2: Will be Guard 3: Will be Guard 2: Most morally, ethically Guard 3: Spiritually, physically Guard 2: Positively absolutely All Guards: Undeniably and reliably DEAD! Guard 1, Guard 2, Guard 3: Ding-dong! The king will die Which old king? The Shushan King Ding-dong! The Shushan King will die Make up an evil plan, use your brain and kill that man Make up a really evil plan He’ll die and away he’ll go Below, below, below Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out Ding-dong's the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low Let them know the Tiger King will die! I’M HAMAN-19 (to the tune of She’s Only Sixteen) I’m Haman-19, Haman-19, I’m the king’s right hand man I serve the king, I’ll do anything But really I’m in command I’m Haman-19 (nineteen) and there’s no vaccine (vaccine), stay tuned for this tale of woe So don’t touch that dial (that dial), Stay for a while (a while), ‘Cause I’m gonna steal the show I’m just off the boat from old Wuhan Challenge him if you dare Cause if I can make it in Shushan He’ll make it anywhere I’m Haman-19 (nineteen) and I have just seen (just seen), the king has a special friend An octopus who ... is also a Jew That invertebrate’s life must end! OCTOPUS TEACHER SONG (to the tune of Octopus’s Garden) I'd like to be Under the sea But this octopus has gotta help his niece Perhaps it’s odd For a cephalopod But for the good-of-the-Jews this madness has to cease We would be so happy You and me If Esther tells that Tiger King the truth I’d like to be under the sea But the Jews of Shushan need my expertise Tell the king that you’re a Jew And then that mullet man will know what to do! I’d like to be under the sea But the Jews of Shushan need my expertise (oh yeah) This octopus has gotta teach his niece! I WILL SAVE THE JEWS (to the tune of the Friends theme song) So no one told you life was gonna be this way You are a Jew, one who Cannot go MIA It’s like the road ahead seems so unclear And it hasn't been your day, your week, your month Or even your year, but I will save the Jews (Or he’ll start a civil war) I will save the Jews (We have been there before) I will save the Jews (I will have to come through) THE KING WILL HANG HAMAN (to the tune of Over the Rainbow) So the King will hang Haman Way up high And the Jews will be saved By Esther and Mordechai Somewhere over the gallows Bluebirds fly And we’ll all boo for Haman 19 until he’s died Someday we’ll get him out of here When Haman will have disappeared we’re happy The Haman-19 will be gone He won’t ruin 2021 He’ll be behind me Somewhere over the gallows Haman-19 will die That’s the dream that I dreamed of Once in a lullaby PURIM BINGEWATCHENSPIEL (to the tune of The Brady Bunch Theme) Here's the story of Haman-19 He was a virus with three corners on his hat. He was plotting, to kill the Hebrews But all his plans fell flat. Here's the story, of the good Queen Esther, Yes her skill at chess protected all of us She was counseled, by her loving uncle He was an octopus. Esther married Tiger King A-hash-u-er-os And she even knew before her big reveal That this cast would somehow make a movie And that’s how we became the Purim BingeWatchen Spiel. Binge-Watchen Spiel, BingeWatchen Spiel We hope you liked the Purim BingeWatchen Spiel!.

  • BIBLE STUDY on ESTHER February 13, 2019 Esther 8:1-2 These
    BIBLE STUDY ON ESTHER February 13, 2019 Esther 8:1-2 These two verses conclude the events of a very busy day. It all started with the king not being able to sleep one night. Finally, the relationship between Esther and Mordecai is made public. Ahasuerus gives to Esther all the belongings of Haman. Still impulsive, Ahasuerus gives his signet ring to Mordecai (confers royal power to him). Esther also assigns Mordecai to be the overseer of Haman’s property. It is important to remember that he receives his position and wealth because of Esther. In some versions of the story it emphasizes the elevated status of women. Verses also demonstrate a pivotal point in the story. Greatest reversal has just taken place. Happy ending has been achieved, the villain is dead, and the hero has been rewarded. All could live happily ever after except the story continues. Character of the king is not changed (he did not admit wrongdoing or responsibility). Esther and Mordecai are triumphant but still dependent on the whim of Ahasuerus. Jews are still under threat because once a law is in place it is irrevocable. Esther 8:3-8 Esther is again the principal actor and Mordecai says nothing this whole time. We are to note that Esther has no trouble bowing before the king. Indicates that Mordecai’s refusal to bow before Haman was personal. Esther weeps which is the first sign of emotion she has shown in the story. All of the verbs used indicate the severity of the situation. Even with Haman gone the Jews are in danger as long as the edict is still in force.

  • Truth Or Dare? a Sermon by Rev
    Truth or Dare? A Sermon by Rev. Michael Scott The Dublin Community church September 30, 2012 Esther 7:1-6, 9-10; 9:20-22 Mark 9:38-50 Today’s scripture from the book of Esther is out of sync with the Hebrew calendar. It’s the story of Queen Esther and Mordecai thwarting the plans of Haman to slaughter the Jews. And it’s celebrated every year at the festival of Purim, which usually occurs in February or March. So, our Jewish friends would find it a bit odd that we read this scripture now, the day before Sukkoth (the Feast of Booths). But, I suppose the creators of our modern lectionary can be excused as Shabbos goyim. Several years ago I attended the traditional reading of this story of Esther which is held in synagogue each year on Purim. It’s quite an experience. Every time the name of the evil Haman is read, the congregation hoots, boos, and operates ratchet noisemakers to blot out the sound of his name. It’s really all quite fun. And the fun continues at the feast later in the day when everyone eats Haman’s ears in the form of pastries, and traditionally consumes substantial quantities of fermented and distilled beverages. But a marvelous, if simple, concept lies at the heart of the story of Esther. It is found in the developing narrative that intertwines lies, secrets, courage, and truth. The underlying source of tension and drama in this tale is the growing ugliness of Haman’s wicked plan to slaughter the Jews.

Operating on the principle of the ratchet device, a gearwheel and a stiff board is mounted on a handle, which can be freely rotated. The handle is held and the whole mechanism is swung around, the momentum causing the board to click against the gearwheel, making a clicking and rattling noise. One popular design A Purim gragger, a kind of ratchet used in consists of a thick wooden cog wheel attached to a handle and two Judaism. wooden flanges which alternately hit the teeth of the cog when the handle is turned. Alternatively, smaller ratchets are sometimes held still or mounted and the handle turned rapidly by the player. The ratchet is similar to a football rattle, which is sometimes used in its place when a particularly loud sound is needed. An example of its use is Richard Strauss's piece Till Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks and Arnold Schoenberg's Gurre-Lieder. In the 18th and 19th centuries, British policemen used a similar device called a "policeman's rattle" to summon assistance.[1] They also used the device during the Second [2] World War, to warn of the presence of poison gas. A plastic version of the gragger. Use in Jewish tradition In Judaism, the gragger is used for the holiday of Purim. The gragger is used every time Haman's name is mentioned during the reading of the Megillah.[3] Because Haman persecuted the Jews, his name is supposed to be drowned out by noise.
