http://www.pass.to/glossary/Default.htmAre you looking for just that Yiddish expression to round out your talk. Or simply love the language and wish you could find more use for it. The List of Yiddish Words and Expressions has an easy to use alphabetical list and simple graphics. Don’t expect bells and whistles but if you want something quick then "gib a kick".
Although there isn’t that much on line for you to do (though they do have a bit of something for each wing). The Israel Museum's site is a must see before you visit. The combination of really good graphics and a very fast server make browsing the site easy and pleasant. I especially enjoyed the youth wing. It is a shame that they didn’t put more of their exhibitions or more of their "resources on line" really on line.

http://www.smu.edu/~dbinder/newpage2.htmlDr. Donald Binder was one of probably hundreds of people who wrote doctoral thesis on Jewish themes n 1997. What marked the difference is that he took his dissertation into the Temple Courts: The Place of the Synagogues in the Second Temple Period and turned it into a rich web site with pictures diagrams detailed information and links to related sites. For anyone who is interested in this period or in the subject - take the time to visit Second Temple Synagogues.
