This mystical analogous dance preformed at the end of some Jewish weddings, has one drunken person imbibing spirits, while refusing to offer any to his friend. In a moment of blind desire, the friend stabs the drunkard and takes the spirits. After a few swigs, he realizes the severity of what he has done, and tries his best to revive his dead friend. First he pours water on his face, then tries to soften rigor mortise, then offers money (and even a credit card) to no avail. The lessons for marriage and life are obvious. Rabbi Gavriel Klatzko passed away a few years later, after building up the Jewish community of Johannesburg, South Africa. He is badly missed.
