Pesach Thouhts By RABBI MOSES FISCHER It was rarely noted that the Torah designates the first eve of our Pesach feast as "The Eve of Vigilance" "Lel Shinurim." How powerfully does this desig- nation of our feast of freedom as an Eve of Vigilance recall to us the solemn forewarning that "the Price of Liberty is eternal Vigilance." The second great lesson of our Pesach laws—not less important and weighty than the previous one, is the precept, "that none shall consume the Pesach offer- ing while alone—only• within a group or at least with a neigh- bor near to him." The eternal lesson of this commandment to all free peoples is, that true freedom cannot be the uncon- tested firmly established posses- sion of° an individual or a single nation! If freedom shall endure and resist all the forces allied again it, we must share it with our fellowmen and with other nations. The most striking expression of genuine universal democracy as it extends over a whole peo- ple, over all the classes and members of the community is— to my mind—the Talmud in- junction, "even the poorest and humblest Jew must celebrate the Pesach feast reclined, and enjoy the four cups of redemp- tion from Egypt." This dictum of our sages is an everlasting sign and symbol of the dignity, equality and freedom of the humblest Jew with his most prominent brothers and with his most honored fellowmen. Seek Data on Victims Of Nazis for Memorial NEW YORK—(ISI) — Israel's Ministry of Religions is asking the cooperation of Jewish com- munities in t h e Diaspora in memorial services for those who were killed in the Nazi death camps. The ashes of the Jewish dead brought from Europe have been buried on Mount Zion; sacred scrolls and books of the Law and other relics found in the camps are being stored there. Every Thursday evening mem- orial services are held on Mount Zion. Anyone in a position to assist is requested to write the Israel Consulate General, 11 East 70 Street, New York 21, N. Y.
