WISDOM
of the
TALMUD
WISDOM
By MORRIS KRAMER

The term "Hokmah" (''wisdom")
in Hebrew is used in connection
with four different things: Cd 1t
denotes the knowledge OF those
truths which lead to the knowledge
Of god Comp. But where shall
wisdom be found?" Job xviii.
12); If thou seekest her like sill

ion 'Hokmah" denotes also know
ledge Of any workmanship. Comp.
And every wise-hearted among
you shall come and make all that
the Lord hath commanded (Exod.
xxxv. 10); And all the women
that were wise-hearted did spin"

Of the acquisition Of moral prin-
ciples. Comp. And teach his Sc

ton for acquiring moral principles
that is developed by old age alone.
a. 1t implies, lastly, the notion of
cunning and subtlety. Comp.
Come on, let us deal wisely with
them" (Exod 1, 10). Maimonides.
Maimonides goes on to elaborate
the theory that the "Hakam"
1.-The wise man'') is a person of
great intellectual attachments. the
man OF good moral principles, of
skill in art, and also a person who
is cunning in evil deeds.
According to Maurice Partridge,
the idea OF wisdom which most
people consider is that which none
but God can truly realize, for He
created it in the beginning when
He marked out the foundations of
the earth" prov. S-29). Also. as
Proverbs $40 illustrate: 1T walks
in the way Of righteousness"
Likewise, this higher type OF Wis
dom is expressed in the Wisdom of
Solomon, 1928, as follows: "Benef-

depression would have been mis-
fortune enough for young Jewish
job-seekers, even if there had been
no Hitlerism to aggravate anti
Senitism and discrimination.
Jewish leadership could have
folded its hands and said: This
problem is much too enormous for
US to deal with. We cannot help
Jewish youth in the midst of this
terrible depression. This is task
for our statesmen and economists.
When this country returns to
prosperity and when Hitler is
crushed, Jewish youth will find
economic adjustment along with
the rest"
But Jewish leadership said moth
ing Of the kind Instead OF folding
its hands. Jewish leadership rolled
up its sleeves and said, in effect:
Although this is an enormous
problem which we alone cannot
solve. we can, we must and we

Gus effects on our young Jewish
people. We cannot find jobs for

that man will have to render ac-

ledge Of the law, second, the ac-
QUESTION of wisdom, and last, con-
corning the lessons derived by log
ical conclusions from the law, that
is, the lessons concerning his ac-
tons, is presumed to be the right
order by Maimonides who justifies
it, according to the following pas
sage: When man comes to the
trial, he is first asked. Hast thou
fixed certain seasons for the study
Of the Law? Hast thou been en-
gagged in the acquisition of wis
dom? Hast thou derived from one
thing another thing?" This proves,
says Maimonides, that our sages
distinguished between the know
ledge of the Law on the one hand,
and wisdom on the other, as means
of proving the lessons taught in
the Law by correct reasoning.
