The printer calls to ask about the photographs in the book I’m printing for the kids about the Jewish presence in Egypt.  Turns out I am not as good a photographer as I had thought, and there was much to remove and to discuss.   Although I have known him for 40 years, ever since we started printing arc with him, we have never had a conversation – and it began this way.  “You know, I was in Egypt…in 1973…”  It took me a minute to pick up on the significance of the date… When he added:  “for 8 months… about a hundred kilometers from Cairo…”  I began to realize that we were at war then, and as he went on, describing the generals on opposite sites who became friends, I realized there was another chapter in the Egypt-Israel book.  I wouldn’t begin to write it yet – I haven’t even begun to explore the war at Megiddo that according to the scribes of Thutmose III wiped out the seed of Israel.  There is so much more to learn!
