Since the early dawn of its history
Israel has believed in the spread of
knowledge. The Torah was used for
instruction and all of the Biblical
teachings pointed to the attainment of
knowledge as a goal to be sought.
During the last century of the life of
the Judean state, public schools were
established in Jerusalem and in the
smaller cities as well. Babylon was
later a seat of Jewish learning and
through the Middle Ages Jewish and
Arabian love of wisdom tind science
and culture was the star that illum-
ined the dark night of bigotry, relig-
ious intolerance and fanaticism that
had overspread the greater part of
the world.
