Congregation Temple, THE New
Freedom"
This festival ranks as one of the
most significant holidays in Jewish
life. The idea of freedom upon
which it is founded constitutes one
of the basic principles in Judaism.
The feast of Passover has a two
fold background. It's origin dates
back to the time when the ancos-
tors of the Jewish people dWelt in
Palestine and occupied themselves
with agriculture. To them the ad
vent of spring marked the most joy
Gus period Of the year. Then reaped,
and its first fruits were brought to
Jerusalem and offered at the Tenn
pie. Hence, Passover was instituted
as nature festival to celebrate the
spring arrival.
But with time, this agricultural
background was almost entirely lost.
Then came the emphasis that Pass
over marks the anniversary Of the
deliverance of the Jewish people
from Egyptian bondage.
Over three thousand years ago a
great number of Jews dwelt in Egypt
and were made slaves to the mighty
Pharaohs. Their life grew bitter
from day to day with heavy toll and
suffering.
At that time Moses was born.
From his youth he championed the
cause of Righteousness and fought
for the rule of justice. Charged
with his holy ideal, he finally cowed
the mighty Pharaoh into submission
And he led the Jewish people out
of the gates of Egypt.
AS reminiscent of this historic
epic, the jewish people cite this
event every year to their families
and children. By celebrating this
feast of Passover Jewry the world
over raises its cry against the OPP
preston and spiritual slavery cur
rent in many lands today.

and some do so. They are goaded into
rebellion.
The nagging that the social worker
finds the basis of domestic unhapp1ness
is in most cases of the hystertcal va
rietv: it may be both that and lack
of Judgment in the parental relation.
The typical nagger Is easily angered,
and what angers her Il am accepting

irritating fault. and persistent one.
The irritation is often justified, like
wise the reproof and the need Of cor
rection. 1t simply won't do to let
children's bad habits grow worse II we
can possibly help it. But nagging

Eternal vigilance is the price of safety
in bringing up children as we'll as In
statecraft, but eternal vigilance isn't
incessant nagging. It's that little sting
of irritation that interferes with the
acceptance OF the correction.
Nagging is a natural reaction, espe-
cially in that very common kind OF
temperament for which We need
milder term than hysterical. Its pur-
pose is usually excellent, but its tech
nique is faulty. Nagging is bad because

much better.
The direct question asked relates to
the method of meeting the nagging
habit that is responsible for so much
domestic unhappiness. My reply is that
you are dealing with fault that runs
fairly deep in the personality makeup
and is a hysterical symptom suggestive
of imperfect maturing. This advice.

which complexities the situation. It's
difficult situation at best. The prob

This is part of an inquiry dealing with
other matters. Nagging bears all the
earmarks of a childish emotional reac-
ton, though children tease more than
they nag They tease in the sense OF
begging their elders persistently Tor
favors and privileges, and they tease
other children in the sense that they
irritate them for the pleasure OF seeing
them upset. as likewise they tease their
helpless pets. But the childish quality
in the response is that they keep 1t
up: they don't know when to stop.
Nagging has the same quality. have
no doubt it has the same psychological
origin; it's a lack of mature, we'll
