Question
This sort of person names the geonic (“guh-OWN-ick”) conferences held biannually at the Sura and Pumbedita academies. A rabbi juggles three myrtle branches in front of one of these people in a Talmudic sugya (“soog-ya”) that also reports on a dispute between Shammai and Hillel over telling white lies to these people. One of these people stands perfectly still and holds one end of a gartel or handkerchief while a dancer holds the other in a ritual sometimes directed by jesters called badchen. One of these people sits surrounded by (*) family members in the bedeken (“buh-DECK-in”) ritual and is given a coin in Syrian and Yemeni variants of the erusin (“air-oo-SEEN”). A “beloved” is told to “go to meet” one of these people who metaphorically represents the Sabbath in the song Lekha Dodi (“leh-KHA doh-DEE”). One of these people circles a man seven times after receiving seven blessings and drinking wine with him. For 10 points, women in what role might crush a glass under a chuppah ■END■
