Moshe Yosef Daum with Fela Nussbaum compared to The Book of Job

     Hey, it's Jack I'm here today to talk to you about the story "Holocaust Survivors: The Search for Faith", and then compare and contrast it to "The Book of Job" from the Old Testament. 
      A comparison from each book is that in "Holocaust Survivors: The Search for Faith" these people are asking God why this is happening to them even if they have been grateful Jews throughout their whole entire life. This is similar to the Book of Job because Job asks God why this is happening even though he has been a great jew also. 
     A difference between "Holocaust Survivors: The Search for Faith" and the book of job is is the amount of people that God affects personally in each story. In the Book of Job, God only personally hurt little amounts of people but in "Holocaust Survivors: The Search for Faith" God hurt millions.  That's the difference between the two....


See ya next time! -Jack

The book of job

Today  in English class we read the book of job from the old testament and I'm here to tell you the similarities  and differences between the book of job and the other stories we've encountered in the old testament first book genesis,  like the Tower of Babel, Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, Noahs ark,  and the sacrifice of Isaac.
      The first similarity I would like to make is between the book of Job and the sacrifice of Isaac. The book of job said that Joe had many children  just like Abraham would eventually have after he almost sacrifice Isaac.
      The difference between the book of Job and every other book of Genesis is that in the book of Job there is a Satan unlike any of the other stories in the book of Genesis .
     Is similarity I would like to make is between the book of Job and Noahs Ark.  This similarity is that God singles out Noah in Noah's Ark  and that is similar to the way God singles out Job in the book of Job.    Another similarity between the book of Job and Noah's ark is  The way that Job sat down for seven days and seven nights and that is similar to the idea of Noah being in the ark for 40 days and 40 nights.

 I hope you guys like  it's compare and contrast entry and I'll see you next time bye

The first month of high school

     Hey Guys, it's Jack! I'm gonna tell you about my first month of High School (ninth grade).  So far, it has been great.
     There is an open campus so you can go out for lunch and it is so cool because you have so much freedom.  You actually get to make your own desicions.  In the middle school, you are kinda locked up with only people telling you what to do and where to go.  It's is going really well and it is a lot of fun.
     So far the best thing about High School is the different usage of materials and way of learning.  In the high school, we get iPads which is so cool.  It's so cool because it makes it so much easier to work.  Instead of lugging tons of binders around we only need a little bit of paper and binders.  You have everything in the palm of your hand with out the worry of losing pieces of paper and that makes everything is a lot easier.  It takes off a lot stress. It's great.
     The worst thing about High School is being the smallest person in the whole school. Everybody else is like adults already as seniors and its crazy.  I see giants walking around my school and it doesn't help that I'm one of the shortest in my grade!!!!!!

So far high school is great!
