Why is Purim so noisy? The graggers, wine, food, and gifts are all physical.
Rabbi Reuven Wolf uses comparisons between Yom Kippur, Chanukah and Purim to understand the physicality of Purim as opposed to the spirituality of the other holidays.
Rabbi Wolf also connects the noise of Purim to the bells on the garments of the Kohein Gadol. as described in this week’s parsha, Tetzaveh.
