Last week, in the NPR show, Speaking of Faith, Scott-Martin Kosofsky was interviewed. He is a book designer who “decided to revise the Book of Customs, adapting it for modern use in English.” In the show, available as a downloadable podcast (MP3), he talks about what “he learned about the ancient and evolving world of Jewish practice. Also, what he calls the ‘surprising’ season of Hanukkah.” One of the accompanying pieces from the well-designed website of the show is an 1879 newspaper advertisement for a Hanukkah related event.
