prove your own sincerity by doing
that which you would have us do.
Do Jews Reject Jesus?
We are constantly reminded that
re reject your Savior. Yes, we re-
ject him. Well? Do you accept him?
We are told that we cricified him. A
charge which is absolutely false. Well,
do you really worship him? Or, in
the spirit of st. Paul, may we not ask,
quoting his 'Epistle to the Hebrews"
does not the world "crucify the Naza-
rene afresh and put him to shame"
by its ungenerous attitude toward his
brethren? How can we give to man
the worship due to God alone? We
do not reject Jesus the Jewish teacher,
but the claims made for him by theo-
logians, claim which the gentle Rabbi
of Nazareth would himself reject
were he able to do so. We do not re-
ject Jesus the good man, but Jesus
the Goldman. We Go not reject Jesus
the helpful, benevolent, kindly prophet
but Jesus the immaculately-born son
of virgin, Jesus the worlds sin-of-

Go to Wall Street with its Gentle
money-changers and Market fixers!
Go to the mansions on the Fifth
Avenues Of our land! Convert them
to the gospel Of the lowly Jew of
Nazareth! Did he not say, LAY not
up for yourself treasurers upon
earth," (ibid vi-19)? Save them,
make them, if you can, "sell all they
have give to the poor" and follow
Nazareth's Rabbi (St Mark x-21) and
when this is done, come to us, and we
shall give you patient hearing. As
Jews we understand the spirit of our
brother of Nazareth who, with pro-
phetic power, preached a gospel of
mercy and justice. But we realize
that he believed that he lived in an
age that would witness the end of the
world, that the social and political
order of his day was about to perish.
He ordained that men should not have
recourse to the law. "If any man will
sue thee at the law, and take away
thy coat, let him have thy cloak Also"
(St Matthew v-40). If these words
mean anything they indicate that the
law courts should be closed, and when

fering, Jesus the part Of the God
head, Jesus the Christ, the Pigment
Of creeds. The real Jesus, the Rabbi
Joshua ben Joseph, is an illustrious
son Of Israel; we reject not him. II
is the only be-gotten son Of God we
reject. Acting thus, we believe that
we are true to our highest conceptions
Of historic truth. We cannot set up
images, even though they possess life,
in place Of the living God.
The Logic Of Events
Antiochus Ephianes insisted that a
statue Of Jupiter Olympus be erected
in the Temple of Jerusalem. Our
fathers, guided by the Macabees, re-
sisted, and the Graeco-Syrian authori-
ties had reason to repent their absurd
sport and intolerance. The Emperor
Caligula demanded that his statue be
placed within the sacred area at Jeru-
salem, and, furthermore, that divine
honors be granted to him. We can
imagine that our ancestors replied,
"0ur own brother we would not thus
receive; think you that we would con-
fer such dignity upon a Roman, En-
peror though he be? For this refusal
