amine consequence and
angry with the need to recog-
nize distinctions. They are
mesmerized by monism: one
solution for all problems
which are viewed indiscrim-
inately as the same. There is
a terrorism of the mind which
will not tolerate ambiguity or
consider distinctions.
• A glance at the Talmudic
debate over the ransoming of
captives and the codification
of the law corroborates the
need for diagnostic and an-
ticipatory wisdom. In the
Rabbinic tradition there is no
greater moral imperative
than the ransoming of cap-
tives. It takes priority over
clothing the naked and
feeding the poor. Even if
stones had been shaped and
wooden beams carved for the
building or the synagogue,
they may be sold to gather
money to redeem the cap-
tured. If there is no other
resort to money, a Torah
scroll may be sold to gather
ransom money for the vic-
tims. "Deliver them that are
drawn unto deilth, ready to
be slain" (Proverbs 24).
Ransoming the captive is
as absolute an imperative as
one can find and yet in the
Talmudic discussion signifi-
cant qualifications are in-
troduced. Captives should
not be 'ransomed for more
than their [market] value for
the sake of the general good
[t;ikkun olam]. Kidnapping
(hostage taking) must not be
made profitable. Submitting

likely encourage still more ab-
ductions and imprisonments.
Moreover, one is not to assist
the captives to escape lest it
will lead the captors to exer-
cise greater cruelty on the

them, denying them the least
exercise of minor freedoms.
We are conflicted by the
me 'is of proximate and far-
rea ng values. Wisdom
warps us to beware the con-
ceit of either/or solutions.
Hijacking and the holding
of hostages, for all the so-
phisticated technology at
hand, are not novel phen-
omena. They have a notor-
ious history and we have not
heard the last of sky piracy
and political blackmailing.
But we may learn from such
encounters a respect for
lucidity, for the art of dif-
ferentiation which helps us
make wiser decisions. Situa-
tions vary and solutions are
multiple. Yet one oyerriding
principle of the prophet in-
forms our design. "To loose
the chains of wickedness,
undo the bands of the yoke,
to let the oppressed go free,
to break every fetter."
