Editor's Note:

In case you thought this was organized religion, Purim comes to blow that notion out of the water. Think of it: For Chanukah we get eight days, and we just light some candles and eat donuts. On Purim, we have to hear a Megillah (twice); give out cash to the needy; shuttle packages of edibles to all our friends; fix broken zippers, lost buttons, messy makeup and broken masks on our kids' costumes; and hold a wild and wonderful Purim feast to boot. In how much time? Twenty-four hours flat. Go figure.

Look, we're here to help. But you've got to get started preparing now. Now here's the lineup . . .

Tzvi Freeman,
on behalf of the Chabad.org Editorial Team

When Aaron Got Cold Feet (By Rochel Holzkenner)
