Many religious Jews have been waiting for the rare appearance of a red heifer – a cow with entirely brownish red hair, required for the purification process prior to service in the final Temple. Five kosher red heifers have just arrived at Ben Gurion airport – the gift of a Christian Zionist in Texas.
Were the red heifers disqualified?
I don’t thinks so. But there is still a little matter of requiring the building of a 3rd Temple, so we need to wait a bit.
