Fires and Keeping the Sabbath

NEW YORK, NY - MARCH 21: Firefighters stand in front of the House fire in the Midwood neighborhood in Brooklyn on March 21, 2015 in New York City. Seven children from the same family died in the fire.

 J.J. Goldberg, columnist and blogger for The Jewish Daily Forward , talks about the heightened risk of fire associated with the use of hot plates as part of a strict observance of the Sabbath and how the Orthodox community has responded to the tragic fire of this past weekend that claimed seven lives.
