A kosher concession stand is coming to Camden Yards. The Orioles on Monday announced the opening of the “Birdland Kosher” stand at Camden Yards for this season. The stand will serve kosher-certified food, including hot dogs, chicken nuggets, soft pretzels, hot pastrami sandwiches on rye bread, potato knishes and chocolate chip cookies. The stand will be located around section 83 on the main concourse near gates E and F. It will be open for all games except Fridays, Saturdays and Yom Kippur (Sept. 20-21). Star-K, a Baltimore-based kosher certification agency, has certified the stand. Read more: bit.ly/40TEUbq 📸: Karl Merton Ferron, @baltimoresun

A new book dives into the history of America's obsession with debating and defining the "Greatest of All Time." How should Christians engage with this cultural fascination? How should we understand "greatness"? My thoughts for @CTmagazine: christianitytoday.com/2025/0…

Replying to @MyShtender
@MyShtender and @zev_eleff ask: Why is Meir Kahane making a comeback among Orthodox Jews? Read their important and timely piece to find out about the story of the Orthodox community's relationship with Meir Kahane. 18forty.org/articles/meir-ka…

Together with @zev_eleff, I have just published a new article, “Why Is Meir Kahane Making a Comeback Among Orthodox Jews?” at @18Forty, where we track the long arc of Orthodox ambivalence (and accommodation) toward Kahanism. 18forty.org/articles/meir-ka… We’re grateful to @18Forty for providing this space to bring this critical historical insight to our pressing contemporary moment.

eBay listed a PSA 9 autographed @JacobSteinmetz6, a HAFTR alum, numbered 316, or 613 backward. That must mean something important, but my Kaballah scholar friends are unsure. At any rate, this is going in the showcase.
