  • Connection to theme:

    Oscar Wilde or some such wag said about plays that when you "deep" things to say they should be hidden on the surface. That is stated with clarity and simplicity, on Hillel's one foot as it were.


  • Jewish Ideas:

    The play is about the children of Israel on the precipice of invading the Promised Land, where there are already other people. Couldn't be more consonant with the grievous headlines.
