Cultural Insight: Greetings Matter

In Hebrew, greetings are very important. When meeting someone for the first time, it is customary to say שָׁלוֹם (shalom), which means ‘peace’. It is also common to greet people with בֹּקֶר טוֹב (boker tov) in the morning and עֶרֶב טוֹב (erev tov) in the evening.
