Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When referring to the overheard conversation between Curt Brunjes, Scully and Mulder, two teenagers are exhuming the remains of Isaac Luria, one teenager asks the other, "didn't you hear the man?", referring to the rumor that Mr. Luria has risen from the grave. The actual line was spoken by Scully, not Mulder.

Kaddish is a dark and brave episode that touches on sensitive subject matter, but doesn't insult your intelligence by telling you what to think. Duchovny turns in a performance of immense power, you are left unsure whether it is the actor or the character who is uncomfortable with the investigation, but, either way, don't take your eyes off him for a second. The episode is wonderfully shot by the brilliant Kim Manners and Mark Snow's score adds to the darkness that constantly threatens to overwhelm the viewer. The guest stars are remarkable, fitting their characters like gloves and helping the story to flow with performances that are believable and full of nice little touches. Kaddish is no also-ran, it deserves to be better known.
