so exodus says that aaron stretched out his hand over the waters and the frog came up and covered the land of egypt and while english translators usually render “frog” as “frogs,” today at shul the rabbi challenged us to consider whether it could in fact have been one giant frog so we spent literally forty-five minutes arguing about whether there were swarms of frogs from the beginning or rather a single monstrous godzilla frog that split into multiple frogs once people started trying to destroy it and the congregation got so worked up that even after we’d sung aleinu and were heading out of the sanctuary people were still excitedly debating the moral implications of one frog versus many so what i’m trying to say is @judaism never change

This post. This was the one I was looking for when I was talking about how I was specially mad that we let Nazis just have pepe the frog bc of the role of frogs in Judaism, and particularly since I’d heard it could theoretically have been just one super giant Godzilla frog. Here it is. (Maybe it’s a word that’s the same both singular and plural? I don’t know Hebrew.)
