520 |a In the Star of Redemption, Rosenzweig excludes Purim from his account of the annual Jewish liturgical cycle, along with the other historical holidays. After reconstructing and rejecting Rosenzweig’s reasons for this exclusion, I propose a Rosenzweigian interpretation of both the Purim story and Purim practices. I argue that Purim should be considered a holiday of Redemption, whose narrative depicts the hidden hand of God in redeeming the world, and whose commandments and customs give us a foretaste of the redeemed world itself. Ultimately, pace Rosenzweig, I suggest that Purim ought to be regarded as the genuine redemptive climax of the liturgical year.
