"The Miraculous
Eyeglasses"
Although blind, the
young boy was strongly drawn to Jewish holy books. He would remove them
from their shelves and lovingly caress their pages. Each book received
a kiss before being put back.
Why This Week? In
this week's Torah reading, Yitro, which details the 5 days before G-D
declaring the Ten Commandments, in verse 19:11[+ Rashi] we learn that
all the blind were cured.

danger.
