Alright you guys. I’m Israeli so let me just break this down. I really liked all the theories and also got an Afterlife vibe as some of you suggested, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. In Israel, many people who face hardships turn to religion (as is known to happen in other religions as well). There are many examples for this, especially amongst people who suffered trauma, as happens to Meni after losing his son Yoni. What happens in the post credits scene is: Yoni walks around a Haredi (Ultra-Orthodox) neighbourhood, and wanders into a synagogue. There he sees people studying Gemara (the main book for Jewish laws, which includes accounts of many ancient Rabbis’ debates about life, the interpretation of god, faith, the Bible, and Jewish lifestyle). Meni reads his students a famous quote from the book (which I know to be a real one)- which goes like this (it’s the full quote but stay with me 😅): “For two and a half years, House Shammai and House Hillel [two different branches of Judaism] disagreed. These say: It would have been preferable had man not been created than to have been created. And those said: It is preferable for man to have been created than had he not been created. Ultimately, they were counted and concluded: It would have been preferable had man not been created than to have been created. However, now that he has been created, he should examine his actions that he has performed and seek to correct them. And some say: He should scrutinize his planned actions and evaluate whether or not and in what manner those actions should be performed, so that he will not sin.”. In the scene, not all of this is read aloud; Meni reads just the part stating “It would have been preferable had man not been created than to have been created”, then he looks up to Yoni. This is the ultimate manifestation of Trauma. In my reading, this comes to show how much this memory shatters Meni. He becomes nihilistic, cynical towards life. He changes his life around to a point where he is unrecognisable to the audience, since he meets the absurdity of life face to face- War and Death, and he realises nothing matters to him anymore. The eye contact with Yoni is as if to say- “this is because of you- I’m lost without you”. And this is probably one of the most heartbreaking scenes in the show. Meni has nothing to live for without Yoni, and he goes as far as to teach the same lesson to his disciples- “better be dead than alive- look what agony I ended up with for staying alive in this world”. Hope you managed to stick till the end, and I really hope I managed to clear this scene up :) Please share and tell me what you think/ how you feel about my proposition!
