Note that this is a FRONT-PAGE (as in A1, not the Sports section) ARTICLE today (below the fold, but still front-page).
Note the picture on the website. If you have access to the print edition, you will understand that the Times thinks you are stupid.
The print edition--again, on A1, lower left corner, mercifully below the fold--features a Bobblehead Moses, holding two tablets with Roman numerals on them. (He looks rather closer to a hirsute Paul Bunyan than Semitic).
