[edit] Teachings

3 Books of Rosh Hashana

Rabbi Cruspidi gives over in the name of Rabbi Yochanan: Three books are opened up on Rosha Hashana. One for the completely evil, one for the completely righteous and one for those in-between. Those that are completely righteous are immediately marked and sealed for life. Those that are completely evil are immediately marked and sealed for death. Those in the middle, remain suspended and deferred until Yom Kipor. If they merit, they are written for life. If not, Heaven forbid they are written for death.

The Rebellious Son

Rabbi Cruspidi's opinion is that a boy is only eligible to fit into the category of 'Ben Sorer U'Oreh' for a short period of only three months.
