Goal: The chanichim should understand why Pilgesh B’Givah was such a horrible event – because it happened in a Jewish town by Jewish people, and how absence of leadership in Am Israel at this time allowed this to happen.

Objective

 The objective of this peulah is to give kids an understanding of the years leading up to the churban. Chances are the chanichim do not know too much about this time period. Points to be discussed 

The split between Judah and the rest of

Israel.

The various kings that ruled.

The reign of Hezekiah, his trouble with Sennacherib, and his water supply for

Jerusalem.

Menasseh, the idol worshipping king of

Judah.

While understanding the history of the time is the main objective of this peulah the game will try to demonstrate how the split in

Israel was bad for the Jewish people
