Then both nip gallant steed and I

Although the demand for seating
accomnualations has been unusually
big this year, the Congregation Eman-
uel promises to meet it adequately.
The Astor theater, which is located
at the corner of Twelfth and Lee
Place, has been rented by the congre-
gation for its use during the Iligh
Holy Days. No restrictions will be
made here fur the seating of the sexes.
Those desiring to secure cards of ad-
mission may still obtain them either
at the congregation, Euclid and Byron
avenues, or at the Astor theater, on
Sunday, Sept. 9, or not later than
Monday, Sept. 10.

Isaiah says: "Seek ye the Lord while He may be
found, cull ye upon Him while He may be near." (Isaiah
55.6.) Meaning, that one has to wait for an opportune
moment to approach God in prayer.
Moses, on the other hand, says:
For what great na-
tion is there that hath God so nigh unto them, as the Lord
our God is whensoever we call upon Him. (Deuteronomy
4.7.) Here God is said to be approachable at all times.
The Talmud explains the discrepancy between Isaiah
and Moses in the following manner: The former referred
to an individual, while the latter addressed himself to a
Zibur, a community. An individual, an isolated egotistic
creature, one who knows and cares only for his own ego,
has to wait for an opportune moment to approach God.
Generally his prayers cannot be accepted. They are too
much concentrated on themselves. Their bold disregard
for others is too glaring.
Isiah then, as elucidated here, referred to the selfish in-
dividual. while Moses addressed himself to the Zibur, the
community. What does it community consist of? It is
composed of individuals who stifle and suppress their own
desires, their own inclinations, even their own personal
liberty, and they offer it all as a sacrifice upon the altar of
the community. They know that it is only with the united
efforts of each person that the community is able to build
its institutions, to care for its poor and tend its sick.
The Talmud remarks that when an assemblage of ten
is busying itself with carrying out the work of the Torah,
they are visited by the Divine Presence. The work, so to
say, has the sanction of God Himself.
This, also, is the reason why at the time God descended
to destroy Sodom, that city which has not lent a helping
hand to its poor, lie has sought, and in vain, ten people.
lie sought ten persons who were working in unity for the
good and welfare of their brethren and, not finding such
an assemblage, lie resolved to destroy them.
Had God only found ten men working in harmony for
the benefit of others, supporting the widow, succoring the
orphan and raising the fallen, He would have saved the
entire city from destruction. But instead of harmony and
unity, He found strife, dissention, each trying to get the
best of his neighbor, every one looking out only for himself.
The city was therefore naturally doomed. Only a virtuous
assembly could have saved it. Ten people united in the
work of the righteous could have saved it. This is what
Moses meant. "For what great nation is there that hath
God so nigh unto them as the Lord our God is whensoever
we call upon him?" Which means that a Zibur, a
righteous community, can approach God at all times with-
out waiting for the fearful days, the Yomim Noroim. The
Divine Presence is always with them.
On Rosh Ha-Shanah and Yom Kippur, however, when
the individual raises himself above his daily cares and
worries, when his heart is filled with love and forgiveness,
the gates of Heaven are being opened and their prayer'
are accepted. And this is the meaning of the words of
Isaiah: "Seek ye the Lord while He may be found, call ye
upon Him while He is near.'.' That is, take advantage of
the auspicious hour when God is near, and call upon Him.
