This was some Sabbath assistance!
A randy few who Zoomed into expert services at a Minneapolis synagogue hosting a bat mitzvah forgot to transform off their digital camera as they began to make a mitzvah of their personal — canoodling in entire view of verklempt congregants, who had been subjected to the softcore sideshow for almost an hour.
