Today there is an interesting occasion that may prompt us to ask whether there is a connection between Wall Street and Judaism — no, not the one you may think:

Today the Dow hit 18,613.
18 is also known as Chai (חי), and 613 is the total number of the Commandments (Mitzvoth) in the Torah (365 “Thou shall not” plus 248 “Thou shall”= 613)

Enjoy.
