In spite Of all that has been written

friends through this unpleasant fault.

bad breath is frequently only the re-

So keep regular. And if you need to

TOrGh TOPIC
OF Biblical
Scholar

"The Torah at Random" will be
the subject of q public lecture
Sunday morning at 10 o'clock in
the All Souls Unitarian Church
by Moses Steinberg, noted Biblical
scholar, editor and lecturer of New
York city.
In a previous address before
the class in comparative religion
at the church two weeks ago,
Steinberg discussed the age of
Methuselah and other historical
characters in the Old Testament,
showing that the records as given
in the Torah are scientifically cor
rect. He presented new textural
discoveries, which throw new light
upon the entire text Of the Old
Testament, and especially upon
the controversial vision of Ezekiel.
Steinberg has made a prolonged
study Of the secret code in which
the text Of the Taroh is compiled.
This is called the ''Massorah" and
consists, he says, of 5000 signs
and annotations about the peculi-
arities in the text. without fav-
ing a knowledge Of the Massorah,
1t is impossible to understand the
text Of the Old Testament and to
derive the full benefit from its
spiritual teaching, Steinberg says.
In his lecture Sunday, Stein
berg will give various examples
OF the new understanding of the
text" showing for example, that
there are three Adams in the
narrative Of Creation instead of
one as we have been taught here.
tofore, that Eve was not created
from a rib, and that there is a
distinction between Creator and
God.
