New Edition of Talmud
Is First in 75 Years

"Give That Man an R. G. Dun"

new
edition of the Talmud — the
first in 76 years—will be pub
lished in Jerusalem by the
World Academy, a federation
of scholarly institutions in Is-
rael headed by Chief Rabbi
Isaac Halevi Herzog. The last
edition was printed in Vilna,
Russia, in 1880-86.
An announcement to this ef-
fect was made by Charles H.
Silver, president of the New
York Board of Education, who
is a trustee of the academy. He
said that the new edition will
appear in some 30 volumes, the
first of which will be published
in Israel this year. The entire
publication project is expected
to require 10 years. For the
first time the text will be punc-
tuated and it will include a di-
gest of unpublished commen-
taries by rabbis in all parts of

Saturday Originally
Christians' Rest Day

Best Wishes to the Jewish Community

O'BRIEN TEXTILES

By RABBI SAMUEL J. FOX

(Copyright, 1956, JTA, Inc.)

Saturday once was the day of
rest for Christians as well as
Jews.
Since the first Christians were
Jews it is only natural that Sat-
urday was the original Sabbath
kept by the Christians. When
this became a disputable factor
amongst Christians an interest-
ing condition ensued for a while.
There were many who observed
two days a week as their Sab-
bath—both Saturday and Sun-
day. It was not until 321 that
there was a so-called official
Sunday law. This was the law
made by Constantine, who de-
clared Sunday a legal holiday.
Still some persisted in keeping
both days after a fashion. In
the fourth century at a council
in Laodicia the church finally
made the step of forbidding
Christians to rest on Saturday
and ordering them to honor
Sunday.

Petach-Tikvah is the oldest
Jewish agricultural settlement
in modern Palestine. It was once
referred to as the mother of the
Jewish colonies in the Holy
Land. Those who founded it
were originally attempting to
found a settlement near Jericho
since that location was the first
location of Israel conquered by
Joshua. The name they thought
of was "Petach-Tikvah" which
means a door of hope and which
is taken from the Bible where
it is written: "And I will give
her vineyards from thence, and
the valley of Achor for a 'door
of hope'." (Hosea 2:17) For
various reasons they could not
develop a settlement there and
then developed it near Jaffa.
They still clung to the name
since it was the first settlement
and was indeed a "door of hope,"
perhaps the first door that was
opened on the way to the new
State of Israel. This colony was

established in 1878.
