Brother Schruumkoff is trying out for his own show.  This is and audition!  2400-year old letter from the Elephantine Isle Jews shows some unique feast practices among the Jewish mercenaries there.  For instance, instead of getting the leaven out of the house, the indication here is that worshipers were to bring all the leaven INTO a room in the house.  Also concerning leaven: the Jews connected with the Jerusalem temple could make some money before each Pesach by taking their leaven out and SELLING it to unbelievers.
