Tag #138285 - Interview #78554 (Jozsef Faludi)

In Kiskoros there were always bochers, students, from other towns who studied and ate during the day. “Tag essen” (day eating) students would go to a different family every day for lunch, which was considered an honor to the family because it counted as a mitzvah, a good deed. There was no yeshiva here, but there were groups of students who studied together like they do in yeshivas. We also had bochers who “ate days,” usually for the whole zman (semester, in yeshiva). I “ate days” too when I was in yeshiva in Mako and Paks. In Mako, my relatives shared the days, and this way I was able to visit them as well.
