selors in schools that have stu-
dents eligible to apply.
Dr. Golden, d i r e c t o r and
founder of the Detroit Optometric
Center, who has established the
scholarships, stated that applica-
tions must be submitted no later
than Thursday, May 9.
An interesting background re-
lates to the establishment of these
scholarships. When Dr. Golden
was graduated from high school,
finances curtailed his plans for
a college education. He was
helped by a benefactor and now
he wishes to aid others who, like
him, encountered difficulties. In
his announcement of the scholar-
ship awards, Dr. Golden said:

Dr. Cyrus H. Gordon, chairman
of the department of Mediter-
ranean studies at Brandeis Univer-
sity. presented the 1968 annual
Zwerdling Lectureship April 4 and
5 under the auspices of the Uni-
versity of Michigan's department
of Near Eastern languages and
literatures, Bnai Brith Hillel Foun-
dation and the Beth Israel Congre-
gation.
With the theme "The Role of the
Phoenicians in History," Prof.
Gordon reviewed the influence of
Phoenician life on both Greeks
and Hebrews. Among illustrations
he cited was King Solomon's order-
ing timber from the King of Tyre,
a clear indication of the maritime
interplay of Phoenicia and Israel.
Dr. Gordon•.addressed a Hillel
and Beth Israel audience on the
"Origins and Character of the
Diaspora" April 4. He dismissed
the idea that the Diaspora began
in 586 B.C.E., with the destruc-
tion of the First Temple. Rather,
he reminded the audience that
Solomon's kingdom extended
from northern Syria to Egypt's
border. Colonies were established
both for trade and security, in
what is now Lebanon, as well as
on an island in the Red Sea.
Jews had been settled for cen-
turies in the Mediterranean
basin and had organized syna-
gogues to which Paul later came
to preach. Etzion Geyer was a
navigational center f o r the
Phoenicians and attested to the
diffusion of the early Hebrews.
As a central theme of the lec-
ture, Dr. Gordon stressed the his-
toric role of the Diaspora in Jew-
ish history, dwelling on the
SAM EMMER
achievements of the Jewish com-
munity in Babylonia—culminating
in the Talmud—and in Spain with
its Golden Age.
These lectures were made pos-
sible by a gift to the University of
Michigan from the three sons,
Morris, Abraham and Joseph, in
honor of their parents, Osias and
Hannah Zwerdling. They were in-
augurated 11 years ago by the late
Biblical archaeologist, Prof. Wil-
liam F. Albright.
