Samaritans, Pharisees, Saducees,
Essenes, Karaites, Chassidism. In
addition there are chapters dealing
with differences among various
parties in Biblical times, with the
period of Hellenism, and the mod-
ern deviations: Haskalah, Secular
Nationalism, Reform, Conservat-
ism.
This book lists a net of books to
be consulted for additional infor-
mation on the subjects covered.
On the whole this volume has the
value of presenting its subject
matter briefly and interestingly.
It fills a need for such a work for
which the reader will feel grate-
ful.

my son Tarphon who treats me
with more honor than is really

what he had done, and she told
them about the torn slipper.
The Sages then exclaimed:
"Even if he had done a thou-

The rabbis of old had the
highest admiration for the fol-
lowing acts of a certain heathen
by the name of Dama ben Neth-

ina.
He was the president of the
city councillors, and one day,
while presiding at a meeting, his
mentally deranged mother
smacked him in the face with a
slipper, but all that Dama did
was to say: "It is enough, mo-
ther." And not only that—but
when the slipper with which she
smacked him fell to the ground,

to abstract "right" or historic
right or any kind of right, we have
infinitely more right in any not
entirely pragmatic sense in Eretz

of course the insistence, despite
the protest of parliamentary lead-
ers in London,, on a Legislative
Council to be Istabkhed forth-
with; such were the protosed new
restrictions on both Jewish immi-
gration and on the sale of lands
to Jews; such is the black and
shameful treatment accorded to
"illegal" Jewish immigrants: their
cruel imprisonment, their ruth-

elements are at work. The
troubles began with acts of ap-

Moslems and robbed Jews, the
brigands were seen not to be bri-

himself by saying: Heil Hitler!
the stench of ultimate corruption
rose. Nor is it without signific-
ance in this connection that a
considerable proportion of both
the Arab brigands and rioters are

from the IIauran. Arab notables

be healed. Its blood must be
the seed of farms and villages and

genuine friend of the Arab peo-
ple too.
