That is why the world to the present time honors them down honors no other men. There were 15 of these prophets By SOLOMON IBN GABIROL whose names are given to as many books in the Bible. I shall speak of (Translated by Israel Zangwill.) only the most important of these. First of all there was Amos, who Send forth Thy messenger, Thy interpreter, taught: "Let justice flow like water And let him do wonders with signs and happenings, a mighty and righteousness as To cleanse us this night from scandal and defamation! stream."

Not only is God just and loving, but lie is also holy. As children of His, we, too, therefore, must be holy. What I does that mean? It means that we ,must keep ourselves far from every thing that is unclean and impure. We must have clean minds, clean lips and' clean hands. We must think clean thoughts, we must speak clean words, we must perform clean acts.

The third and last is humility. Not only in time of sor- row and misfortune should we turn to God, but also in time of joy and prosperity. Never should we be guilty of saying: "My strength and the power of mine arm hath gotten me this wealth," but we should always remember that it is God to whom we are indebted for all our happiness and FROM THE success.
