light. The Lord is said to have
blessed the Sabbath and this
Biblical -statement was inter-
preted to mean that he blessed
it with much light. Some of the
sources in rabbinic literature
(Shaloh) mention a custom of
lighting as many as ten candles
for the Sabbath. Isaac Luria,
the famed Kabbalist is quoted
as calling for seven candles to
be lit for the Sabbath. The lat-
ter figure is supposed to sym-
bolize the seven days of the
week which come to their full
reality by the coming of the
Sabbath.
Seven candles also symbolize
the 7,000th year which is sup-
posed to witness the coming of
the Messiah and a world lit
around the clock. Later customs
developed the tradition of light-
ing a candle for every person in
the home. Some insist on light-
ing seven candles to symbolize
the menorah in the temple
claiming that a Jewish home on
the Sabbath is like the Temple.

which parents are advised to
handle children when they
bring home naughty words and
bad jokes. Taking the issue in
stride, Mrs. Gruenberg affirms
that "we can teach them (our

"Everyday Problems of Boys

mendable. It should be made

parent: many problems will then
be averted.

`Causeless Hatred'—Cause
of Destruction of Temple
Why was the First Temple
destroyed? Because of three
flagrant violations: idolatory,
adultery. murder. As for the
Second Temple — when the
people were occupied with
Torah, Mitzvoth, and acts of
benevolence—why was it de-
stroyed? Because of causeless
hatred (Sin'ath chinom). Which
teaches us that causeless hatred
is equivalent to the three cardi-
nal sins.—Talmud, Yoma 9
