IN MEMORY OF
MANUEL E. ARDEN AND SELMA E. ARDEN

Belonging is not usually ac-
companied by spiritual devotion.
Jewish life is not generally
marked by a big level of spiritu-
al fervor. After we experience the
emotional intensity of the High
Holy Days, after we share in wor-
ship with a large congregation in
a spirit of reverence and common
loyalty to our faith and heritage,
we descend every year from that
peak experience to the months
when we feel the absence of so
many of our people whose pres-
ence could encourage and uplift
their hearts and ours.
The story of Abraham is a mes-
sage not only for more Jewish-
ness, but for greater intensity, for
more committed Jewish identifi-
cation, for loving Jewish obser-
vance, for deep involvement in
Jewish education, for a Jewish
life of beauty and dignity.
A philosopher once said, "No
virtue is safe that is not enthusi-
astic." In re-reading Abraham's
life, we are summoned to renew
his spirit. ❑
