Notes
Kosher: Ritually clean, pure.
“Not one, not two, not three”; This negative method of counting persons is employed to mislead the Evil One, that it may not appear to him that there are too many, lest harm befall some of those present.
“Wanted to wait for Yom Kippur”: On the sacred day of Atonement, all men are required to forgive those who have sinned against them, so that they, in turn, may be forgiven by God.
