A culture box from Israel · olives, Bamba, a board game, and Shabbat cups
來自以色列的文化箱・橄欖、Bamba、桌遊與安息日的杯子

Opening the Box 打開箱子

Class 6B received a culture box from Israel! Inside was a jar of olives — salty and a little sour. We each took a small taste, and the flavor was truly one of a kind. There was also a bag of Bamba, a popular Israeli corn snack with a rich peanut flavor, and a classic board game, Snakes and Ladders, that Israeli friends often play together.

六年乙班收到了來自以色列的文化箱!箱子裡有一罐橄欖,鹹鹹酸酸的,我們淺嚐一口,味道真的很特別;還有一包Bamba——一款花生口味的玉米點心;以及一副經典桌遊蛇梯棋,是以色列朋友間常玩、增進感情的遊戲。

Cups for a Sacred Day 獻給神聖日子的杯子

The most special item was a set of cups for Shabbat, the Jewish Sabbath. Shabbat is an important religious tradition in Israel, and the cups stand for its blessings and the togetherness of family.

箱子裡最特別的,是一個個代表安息日(Shabbat)的杯子。安息日是以色列文化中重要的宗教傳統,這個杯子象徵著安息日的祝福與團聚。

These gifts from far away helped us understand Israel's culture and traditions far more deeply than any textbook could.

這些來自遠方的禮物,讓我們對以色列的文化與傳統,有了比課本更深刻的理解。

“A box from far away taught us a whole way of life.”

一只遠方的箱子,教會我們一種生活方式。
