good, bad, or so-so

taste is bitter as our tongue;

in our fingertips

kishke said...: I'm having a hard time sussing this one out. Is it supposed to say "as bitter?"; November 24, 2011 at 5:39 PM
rabbi neil fleischmann said...: that's what i mean to say in 7 syllables.; November 24, 2011 at 10:07 PM
kishke said...: Well, color me mystified.; November 24, 2011 at 11:10 PM
rabbi neil fleischmann said...: trying to say that life is as we experience it personally it, not as it objectively is.like marah'[s waters being bitter because THEY were bitter, the people (medrash). and then i did a switcheroo,having already used tong/taste i didn't want to say on the tip of our tongue so i said in our fingertips...; November 25, 2011 at 2:52 PM
kishke said...: I see. It was the fingertips that threw me off completely.; November 26, 2011 at 11:29 PM
