leadership and of the representative
character in the makeup of a minis
lister. This is too obvious to need dis
cussion. Of course, the rabbi is the
religious leader and spokesman of the
synagog. Nor should they overlook the
fact that he must possess the social
sense, the readiness to meet people
and inspire confidence in them. For
the rabbi of today is not the closet
philosopher, nor the secluded scholar,
nor yet the saint able to hold himself
aloof. Rather is he the inspirer, the
exhorter, the friend and confident Of
his people, rubbing elbows with all
and mingling freely among all. Such
qualifications are no less important
than oratory in the religious leader

limited to the ministration Of the
adults. In fact, the hope of Israel lies
in the incubation of the knowledge
and sublimity of our faith in the
hearts Of our young Their soul-life
should be so moulded as to make them
appreciative, during the plastic period
Of their lives, of the grandeur and no.
bility of Judaism's teachings. Then
we shall not be building the structure
Of our faith on shifting sands, but
with the security that our future will
be safe in their keeping. To bring this
about, we must demand of the rabbi
to be conversant with the principles
Of religious pedagogy, knowing how to
bring to our young the nuggets of
gold out Of the rich store-house Of our
religious heritage. For Judaism will
not be saved by sermons, however elo-
quently delivered and learnedly COM
posed, but by inducing our young
with feeling and fervor for things
Jewish, and with enthusiasm to grow
up with the knowledge of God. The
minister Of today must therefore be
the teacher in the true sense of the
word, or our hope is lost. The adults
are, and, let US hope, will remain Jews.
But the rising generation Of our boys
and girls have yet to be educated to
feel and think as Jews. And let no one
maintain that anyone could instruct
children. Pedagogy has of late been
justly raised to the dignity of
science, with its theoretical and prac-
tical aspects, to be mastered by him
who would teach efficiently. So the
critical question put to the rabbi
should not be: "Are you an orator,
Doctor?", but rather, Are you re-
ligious pedagog, knowing how to in
spire and educate our youth in the
faith Of the fathers?"
