"Not To Let Go From His Seed Basket..."
by Zalman Shazar

As you gather to celebrate the anniversary of the "Set-
tlement of the One Thousand," may I be permitted to

honor Abraham Harzfeld, the initiator of this settlement
project and the guest of honor at your celebration, by
submitting my interpretation of a quotation from the
writings of a. Hebrew pioneer of another age. The verse
to which I refer has been chanted by Jews for centuries
at the conclusion of every festive meal.
It is a simple verse—one we all learned in childhood:
"They who sow with tears shall reap their harvest with
joyous song. -
I must admit, haverim, that ever since I was able to
understand and to follow the verses of our sacred litera-
ture practically with my eves closed, I have puzzled over
this one verse. Why should one need tears for sowing?
The pioneer of today knows, as surely the pioneer of
yore must also have known, the ingredients of a good
harvest: fertile soil, sufficient rain and sunshine, toil,
perseverance and an iron will. All these serve as guaran-
tees to the pioneers that they will indeed "reap their
harvest with joyous song. - But what is the place of the
tears? Why should there he suffering at sowing time?
As I grew older, I became increasingly skeptical of
the comsection between tears and song. How could one
possibly claim the existence of a casual relationship be-

tween the two? You could shed tears like rain at sowing
time, and still get a disappointing harvest. On the other
hand, we have seen with our own eyes that men have
sown their seed with joyous song and then reaped a

harvest of tears.
The question today is no longer whether a man needs
tears for a rich harvest. but rather what the man does
at a time of tears so that he may still have hopes for a
good yield. What does a man do when he is stricken
with sorrow, and his heart is full of tears not only for
himself but for his entire people and his whole genera-
tion?

own soil will he permit despair to overwhelm him and
sap at his strength so that he will cease to sow his seed
altogether? Let the tiller of the soil give way to panic
for only a moment, and he will become powerless in the

face of his troubles.

On the other hand, if, even in th -e midst of blood and
tears, suffering and bereavement. evil and tragedy. the
farmer will know enough not to let go of his seed basket
but to bear it forth into the field in due season, then

he is sure to have a harvest.
It is this will to live, this dogged determination. this
finn covenant which links the pioneer with his seed
basket, that provide the guarantee that the forces of evil
will not prevail against him. Such determination in the
midst of suffering and tears cannot possibly blossom
forth into anything else but the exultant rejoicing that

comes with a rich and fruitful harvest.
