Any type of event that happened on that calendar from different holidays and festivals to the Shabbat and Bar Mitzvah each event was very important to this group and meant something. Along with this the war and everything that was going on was very important to them throughout the story. With Reuven’s group they too went by the Jewish calendar and took it very serious. But there were others things I found while reading this book. Time was marked through school.
Please take heart that some of us Anglo-Saxon boys ferociously support Israel and value the heritage of the children of Israel. I think of Israel with respect and tender affection!

The internal light that several characters in Bread Givers either have or are seeking symbolizes their self-chosen purpose for living. Sara’s father spends all hours of his day devoting himself to understanding the Torah and other holy works, and many people talk about the light that shines constantly from his face. This is especially true whenever he's expounding on a scripture or holy principle.

Leadership was important when Moses lead God’s people out of Egypt through the desert for forty years and to the Promised Land. In Exodus chapter 18 Jethro, Moses father-in-law, gave Moses some advice about leadership. As Jethro watched Moses at work he saw the sheer volume of the work was overwhelming Moses. He suggested to Moses to appoint sub-leaders to settle smaller disputes and the more difficult problems Moses could oversee. In Deuteronomy 1:15 it states that Moses did select “wise and respected men” to serve as leaders (New International Version).
Ben Franklin was one of our founders of the United States, an inventor, and involved in politics. Benjamin Franklin must have had is time very well organized to become all of this.

Not just was he humble with the inventions he made, but his inventions also helped everyone else. For example, starting a library has helped everyone’s education.
The strength in his voice tells the listener that he is confident about what he is talking about which is very important or no one would listen to what he had to say. He also made good eye contact which showed a sense of emotion which goes deep into the hearts of the people. King’s speech is persuasive because he knows how to convince people what he is saying is right by relating it to them in a deep, personal way.
