Are There Sheep In Your Dessert?
It's the time of the year when my long-suffering hubby has to grade term papers written by teenagers in the middle of the night the day they are due. Because the hour is so late and the writing is so rushed, these kids have no time to edit or proofread anything, so these papers are swarming with errors in grammar, spelling, logic and of course fact.
Some examples, drawn verbatim from this year's "final products":
...Moses led his flock of sheep into the dessert.
While Moses was taking care of his father-in-law, the priest of Midian's sheep...
At the age of 25, Rashi invented his own language, Old French...
Moses has several characteristics that combine to create an audacious devoted leader...
Rashi interoperated on the verse...
The original Bible that was printed in 1567 by Daniel Bomberg, included Rashi's commentaries.
