Well, I really messed THAT one up! I read at least some of this every year but didn't know even half the answers! Better luck next time...
Oh, and if the correct answer is NOT Ethics of the Fathers, WHY do all the copies I've ever seen have it translated that way?? Even the two copies I own? Reply

in response to Rivka Rachum:

The question asked for the exact translation. Ethics of the father's is a description of the content but not the translation. This is similar to the Book of Braishit being known as Genesis. Reply

Thank you for these quizzes. Knowledge is truly power. Reply

Thank you for putting these quizzes out every week. I take each one once and, if I don't get at least 9 correct, I wait a bit and take it again until I do. Just to make sure that I am learning about each subject. Hope that is okay and I am not skewing some of your numbers. BH. Reply

I scored 10/10, which does not surprise me, given how special this book has always been for me. My father was not a formally educated man, but he did grow up in a little shtetl in Poland before he was forced to leave there by the nazis. He never had the opportunity to get a formal education here in America, but some of my fondest, most enduring memories of him was when he would quote from this very book. This has motivated me to pay special attention to this work and yes, even quote from it myself on occasion, although the truth is that its contents, namely a distillation of traditional Jewish ethics, is enough to peak anybody's interest Reply

8/10. I had no idea when during the week. I knew it's supposed to be after sundown but not which days. Reply
