■ I FROM THE RABBIS I Insularity Continued from Page 35 will happen in Nineveh. In the meantime God creates a miracle and a leafy protective gourd grows instantaneously, bestowing upon him im- '-) mediate shade and bringing him the only joy expressed in the Book of Jonah. But with dawn's approach, God ap- points a worm to destroy the miraculous gourd, and when later a deathly east wind — comes bearing down on the exposed Jonah, the prophet seeks relief; even death would r be better. God then addressed Jonah, "Are you so greatly vexed on account of the plant . . . which you did not rear, which came up in a night and perished in a night; and should I not be concerned for Nineveh . . . one hundred and twenty thousand persons and much cattle." (Jonah 4:10-11) ) WI iiifi. contemporary european and traditional fashions in fur Hunters Square at Loehmanns 31065 Orchard Lake Rd. • Farmington Hills, MI r i Our God is Master of the Universe, and everything in it, not just Israel. When Abraham learned that God was about to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, he began to plead for the inhabitants. God expects no less from Jonah. He wants him to become a r ' universal voice, a man for all the nations of the earth. God 1 cares for the Assyrians as much as He cares for the , I Jews. And the significance of reading the Book of Jonah toward the end of Yom Kippur is to remind us that even if _s our own house — thanks to the blessings of Yom Kippur, is in order — it's not right for (' us to forget about the rest of the planet and enclose ourselves in protective wombs. True, it may have been necessary to look inward C - for a 25-hour period, but it was a looking in to permit a :1) more sensitive looking out. Therefore, we immediately leave the insularity of the Jewish Yom Kippur and self- contained synagogues, and exit into the world of Sukkot and the open sky revealed to us from our temporary booths. Not only are we com- manded to bless the palm fronds and bring them into our synagogues, but if we add up the total number of sacrifices offered in the days of the Temple during the festival of Sukkot, it amounts to 70, signifying all the na- tions. On Sukkot we pray not only for ourselves; we pray for the entire globe. On Shavuot the Torah was given to us on Mount Sinai. On Simchat Torah, the day of rejoicing of the Law, we cry and dance with joy over this gift from God, and we under- stand that it must be shared with everyone, even the peo- ple of Nineveh, the capital of Assyria. itk 851-7233 STRATOLOUNGER SPECIAL from $ 300119up Rocker Recliners and Wall Huggers in Fabric, Vinyl or Leather to match Assorted colors!

Call 354-6060 Health News... Try More Than 'Relief' For Your Next Headache BY DR. STANLEY LEVINE, D.C. Doctor of Chiropractic Of all the so-called triumphs of the pharmaceutical in- dustry, the `heachache remedy is the most dangerous to life and health. I don't want to convey the image that headache pills are poison and are in themselves dangerous to life. However, the less toxic and the more apparently effec- tive remedy is dangerous because it suppresses a symptom, while the trouble caused by the symptom may continue to progress. Pain, particularly headache pain, is the alarm bell which nature employs to signal `FIRE.' Ringing the 'fire' alarm never put out the fire. There are headaches that seem to have a simple cause. The `morning-after' type, for instance. And it usually passes as soon as its cause — a clogged digestive tract — has been cleared. DR. LEVINE Other headaches, particularly _ the chronic or recurring type, will send the careful, intelligent person straight to the Doctor. The causes of headaches are many. They include digestive, eliminative, kidney and heart troubles, eye-strain, infected tonsils, nerve pressure from spinal condition, and sometimes brain trouble itself. However, in no condition will a headache be eliminated until the cause has been determined and corrected. Whatever the cause, the headache symptom should be accepted as a natural bodily warning to seek proper diagnosis and treatment of the problem. Many individuals seek Chiropractic care both for relief of the headache symptom and for the correction of the underlying cause.
