Question
Rabbi, is it easy being Jewish? I saw your Gateways Ask the Rabbi project on exhibit at the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum in Dresden, Germany. I never really had a chance to ask a rabbi this question before: Is it harder for someone like me, who didn’t grow up observant, than for someone for you who grew up keeping everything? Thanks!

Question
Dear Rabbi, could you explain to me what a gemach is? I was reading something online and saw a reference to a gemach that helped people with a variety of things that they needed. Thanks a lot!

Question
What is the Jewish perspective on birthday celebrations? The Torah refers explicitly to only one such celebration, that of Pharaoh. Do we have a tradition for birthday celebrations and if so, what is it? Thank you.

Question
Dear Rabbi: How do I format a question so it looks really nice?

Question
Now as many people are afraid to go out because they might catch coronavirus, lots of people have turned to home shopping services in which a paid shopper goes to a store and delivers them to your home. The paid shopper is risking catching the disease, and therefore their risking their own life, by shopping on your behalf. Is there a religious ethical issue in having a stranger put their own life on the line instead of yourself in order to get you groceries?
