Famous Jewish textbook Taamei Hminhagim written 250
years ago has a chapter with ailments many of which are
followed by the signature: BU the Hebrew acronym for
Tried and Proven. One of the passages reads: He who
burns half his beard is an extreme fool. BU. |
|
| |
It is said that the author, upon reading this passage, held
half his beard between his fingers, letting the end
protrude beyond them. He then lit the tip of his beard
which caught on fire, burned his hand, he let go and the
beard
then burned his face. He then quickly wrote BU and
passed out. |
