If a question is particularly complicated, then you have to ask yourself whether it is still a question or whether it already is one cash. What is the difference between question and cash is, that’s another question, if not one cash.
There might be an answer to that, but the thing about that cash is that cash not equal cash is, and not because it is different kasches there, but because they already cash as such is something other than that cash per se. Then what is the difference between that? cash and the cash? One is a hard question and the other is a mush, or exactly the other way around: one is the mush and the other is the question.

Alexander Estis, a freelance Jew without a permanent address, writes so much schmontz in this column that it will make you sick to your stomach.
The difference therefore seems simple, but the distinction remains complicated. So there can be one cash be what’s in the cash is in it, but also one cash arise from too much in the head kasches. For some that comes first cash and then only that cash, for others vice versa. Who enough cash has, he has less kasches. Others have had enough kaschesbut no cash. On the other hand: who has to think about cashhas less time to think about kasches.
If you don’t have any cash you are most likely hungry. And if you have one cash you are most likely hungry too, but for an answer.
“I would like to ask the Rebbe for an answer.”
»Meschuggener, why should you ask anyone after an answer instead before an answer?”
The hunger for answers is especially great when you are either clueless, young, or both, which is more often the case than just either.
“I know, son, being young is complicated because you don’t understand others…”
“And then when you get older…?”
“Then it becomes easy because you know that you don’t understand yourself.”
The boys ask questions, but no one gives them answers. The elders give answers even though no one asks them the questions. Sometimes the answer is simple anyway, but the question remains complicated.
Of course, even greater than the hunger for answers is the thirst for questions. So there is often a question against a question – and it is better if a question stands against a question than if an answer stands against an answer.
Our most frequently asked questions are:
“Is she Jewish?”
“Is he circumcised?”
“Who is this Uncle Eisek?”
“Where do we go if we have to leave?”
“Did you finish the soup?”
“And the Knejdlech?”
“Is this bacon kosher?”
“Am I Benjamin Netanyahu, or why are you telling me this?”
And of course: “What does this mean for the Jews?”
With so many questions, it is of course not easy to separate the particularly unimportant ones from the even less important ones.
“Rebbe, tell me, what is the most important question of our time?”
»Ot – exactly these!”
To some kasches Not only is there no reasonable answer, but to this reasonable one cash there wouldn’t even be a reasonable question.
An unasked answer is worse than an unanswered question. But an unanswered question is like an unread book, an unanswered question is like an overripe fruit, an unanswered question is like a promised land.
You don’t understand anything in this world. Therefore, the unanswered question is man’s actual form of existence if he is only human. Is he human? That too is in question.
All creation is a question. But a question asked by whom? From him, from whom creation is. So all of creation is a question asked by God. But a question asked to whom? If a question is asked by God, it can only be asked of Himself. The whole creation is therefore a question asked by God to himself.
Said differently, but meaning the same: All creation is one cash out of kasches.
cash – Ask; Word with the same sound: cash – Knit
knejdlach – dumplings
ot – there you go)
