I haven’t see AZ in years. Is DY AZ?
I’m also wondering if GIR is one or both as well.
I have one question for anyone who would like to answer and with that, I will leave others to continue the (non) discussion.
Rabbi A has 25 boys in his class. For snack, the school provides a case of 20 apples. Rabbi B gets the same case of 20 apples, but he has 15 boys in his class, so after he hands out 15 apples, he takes the remaining 5 apples over to Rabbi A’s class.
10 years later: the grade is now divided between Rabbis A, B, C with a total of 50 students. The school provides a total of 55 apples for all the classes to share. Two boys are allergic to apples so there are now 48 boys to feed, and 7 extra apples. 3 apples are inedible for whatever reason. Rabbis A, B, C each take an apple for themselves and the secretary comes by, notices the last apple and takes it.
In both scenarios, the number of boys and apples did not match up, but when other factors were taken into account (the extra apples from the other class, the inedible apples etc) the numbers did, allowing for a match between apples and hungry people. Can anyone prove that there are more single boys/apples today than there have been in the past and can anyone prove the amount of hungry people/apples there are today? When you have that info, let me know.
