If your life is not in jeopardy for what you
believe, you’re probably on the wrong side! It is what you actually believe that determines how you walk out your faith. But avoid stupid controversies, genealogies, quarrels and fights about the Torah; because they are worthless and futile. (Titus 3:9, CJB) |

About the Dry Bones Comics Strip[1]
Dry Bones is an Israeli political cartoon strip published in the English-language newspaper The Jerusalem Post since 1973. Dry Bones is the work of Yaakov Kirschen. The name of the comic strip refers to the vision of the “Valley of Bones” in the Book of Ezekiel (37:1-14).
Dry Bones has been reprinted and quoted by the New York Times, Time Magazine, LA Times, CBS, AP, and Forbes. It offers a pictorial commentary on current events in Israel and the Jewish world. Kirschen won the Israeli Museum of Caricature and Comics’ Golden Pencil Award for his work. Dry Bones is syndicated in America by Cagle Cartoons.
Kirschen says his cartoons are designed to make people laugh, which makes them drop their guard and see things the way he does. In an interview, he defined his objective as a cartoonist as an attempt to “seduce rather than to offend.”
The comic strip was satirized in an episode
of the online podcast Chapo Trap House, the comic was lambasted
for its perceived poor quality and racist undertones.
