distribution of goods on a
scale more vast than earlier
generations could even im-
agine. The instruments of
communication, the organiza-
tion of society and the
weapons of our time have pro-
vided incalculable power to
political leaders.
How ironic that each of
these gifts has created critical
problems. We have enough
material abundance to
eliminate poverty, yet the per-
sistence of deprivation in the
midst of affluence breeds
hostility, resentment and
violence.
The vast destructive power
of atomic weaponry acquired
by the major nations of the
world has led them more than
once to the brink of global
catastrophe.
Knowledge has not been an
unmixed blessing, either. Too
many knowledgeable people
have assumed the attitude of
the cynic, the person who
knows the price of everything
and the value of nothing. The
values that traditionally have
sustained human life — in-
tegrity, faith and discipline —
have eroded in an age mark-
ed by an explosion of know-
ledge accompanied by moral
confusion.
Our task is to meet the
challenge faced by our
ancestors. As we seek to enter
our Promised land, we should
utilize the great gifts the
Divine Providence has placed
in our hands for moral pur-
pose, for the enchantment of
life, for the will of heaven. If
not, we shall discover, like the
tribes of ancient Israel, that
our bounty and privileges
will not endure. ❑

Construction on Congrega-
tion Shomrey Emunah-Ohel
Moed in West Bloomfield is
expected to be finished in two
months. The new congrega-
tion is an extension of the ex-
isting Shomrey Emunah in
Southfield.
"We've had the standrad
building delays," according to
Rabbi Shaiall Zachariash of
Shomrey Emunah. "But they
were building today and they
were building yesterday."
The site, located at 6191
Farmington Road, was pur-
chased from a private resi-
dence in April 1986 for about
$150,000. Construction of the
6;000-square-foot synagogue
began in June 1988.
