Author Description

Excerpt from Masmid, 1937: Yeshiva College Yearbook In these days of immense reconstruction in Palestine. Who is to weave the spiritual pattern? Shall the pattern of Jewish life in Palestine be super vised. Influenced. And controlled by purely secular elements? Once more Jewish scholarship must tax its ingenuity and ability. And reveal the warp and woof which we are to use. So that spirituality. Our raison d'etre. May pervade and permeate the homeland. Thus can we safeguard against the dreadful fate of those naked homeless souls whom the mystics describe as hovering between an earth from which they cannot escape. And a paradise they cannot enter.
