In these words of the Psalm they
spoke to God together.
Judith felt that in this hour
she was more Jewish than she
had been in walking on the other
side of the narrow street all her
days since the time she first be-
gan to feel apart from Mary Fo-
garty. This looked like the Juda-
ism of the prophet who spoke
about the One Father. She and
the Christian sister who sat at
her side were speaking together
to Him.
This was being Jewish if to
lx' Jewish was more than a self-
service, if being Jewish had to
do with the brotherhood. Judith
hoped the Christian sisters were
feeling the same way about their
religion in this sacred hour of
sitting at the one altar with the
Jewish sisters and speaking to
God with them. When all Jews
and Christians feel that way the
time of brotherhood will have
come, she thought.
Judith's upbringing rose up to
admonlsh her that maybe these
thoughts were heresy, but she
winked respectfully at God and
God understood and she knew it
was all right.
