Lust be plowed, "everything
quires mending."
There is a huge gap be-
veen the world as is and the
orld that ought to be. That
cuum is filled by belief in
nother world in which to
e. For some, then, belief in
other world is driven by the
onscience to compensate the
ictims of this world. Yet, for
thers, otherworldliness is
spect lest it be exploited by
nose who seek to delay for-
ver the tasks of this people,
's day, in this world.
The rabbinic tradition tries
hold on to both worlds, to
ounter both the seduction of
assivity and the submission
o the status quo. Consider
he surface paradox taught in
e Ethics of the Fathers
irke Avot, or Avot): Better
one hour of repentance and
od works in this world than
he whole life of the world to
ome; and better is one hour
f bliss in the world to come
han the whole life of this
orld (4:17).
On a more personal level,
et me relate the interactions
f traditional Jewish wisdom
d my own experience. My
andmother died three days
efore the festival of Sukot.
he funeral was held, the
ourning period, normally
even days in duration, began,
ut in accordance with Jew-
sh ritual law, once the
estival began, the mourning
nded. The tradition is clear:
aregel mevatel gezerat
hivah
the festival annuls
he mourning period.
I was at first somewhat
resentful that the personal
mourning of the family was
ubordinated to the public
elebration of Sukot. But as
thought about the ritual
e I sensed the wisdom of
he tradition. My grand-
other was a devoted Jew,
and she would not wish to
disturb her people's joy. The
consolation came from the
shared conviction that her im-
mortality was bound to the
eternity of our people. Indi-
viduals die, but ein hatzibur
mait
the community does
not die. Eleven months after
her death that faith was in-
scribed on my grandmother's
headstone. It read, in the tra-
ditional expresseion, tehei
nishmatah tzerurah bitzror
hachayim
may her soul be
bound up in eternal life.

ANNOUNCING THE FIRST
MAJOR ECONOMIC PROGRAM OF
THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION.
You won't read about it in
time or Newsweek. It won't
be issue number 1, 2, or even
3 on the McLaughlin Group.
Nevertheless, it is a pro-
gram that will significantly
impact the economic and
physical well-being of every
person that drives an auto-
mobile.
Introducing the Volvo
Economic act of 1993.
Which now allows you to
purchase a new 1993 200 or
900 series Volvo and,
dzpending upon your down
payment, receive a finance
rate ranging from APRs of
0% to 4.9% (for 48 months).t
Or if you prefer to keep
your cash flow flowing, take
advantage of remarkably low
36-month lease rates.*
To enact this particular
piece of legislation, we should
point out, you need not fight
your way through
the Usual Washing-
ton gridlock. Just the
roads leading here.

But what is her "soul?" I
do not understand soul as a
material object but as an ex-
pression of her life. She was a
woman of kindness, gentle in
speech and manner, a woman
of charity who baked and
cooked for sick and poor, who
blessed her household as she
closed her eyes and raised her
hands before the lit Shabbat
