Don't you think it is signicant that Rashi studied at Worms and Mrtin Luther started the reformation Movement in Worms by posting his 91 thesis. Reply

Maybe Rashi was attempting to bring spiritual light to a place that had been significantly darkened by the antisemitic Martin Luther Reply

I scored 8/10. I guessed wrong about where on a page of Talmud that Rashi's commentary can be found. Also, I am surprised to learn that Rashi did not invent, nor apparently even use, the script he is so famous for. Apparently, this alternate script was the complete invention of early publishers of the Talmud. If that is the case, then wow, learn something new every day Reply
