Suffered Under
Pontius PLATE"

nONTIUS PLATE, procurator Of
I Judea, deputy plenipotentiary
Of his Imperial Majesty, sat on his
judgment seat and looked at Jesus.
Six times he had looked at him; six
times he had made certain that this
young prisoner was an innocent
man, and six times he had said so,
even in the face of the mob.
The noises in the street confused
him. He could not hear, down
through the centuries, the voices OF
millions Of men, women and chill
dren, rising up week after week
and repeating the words, almost
like curse: "-and in Jesus Christ,
His only Son, our Lord, who +. i.
suffered under Pontius Plate" The
voices in the street drowned the
voices of the centuries.
But il, as Pontius PLATE
turned Jesus over to the will
Of those who hated him, he
had dared to look INTO Jesus
eyes, and what would he have
seen?
To this very day, and to the end
of time, in all places and among
all men. this Christ whom the world
holds in chains is yet the Judge
Of every man. Men may say OF
Jesus what they wish, and he will
be silent still. But in his eyes is the
verdict. A man is judged by his
own judgment of Jesus Christ. And
you, too. Facing you, ne looks
straight through you. What do you
see in Jesus eyes?

Sentence first,
Verdict afterwards

BESIDES the informal hearing be-
- fore the ex-high priest Annas,
there was the formal trial before
the High Priest Caiaphas. He pre-
sided over the Sanhedrin, the su-
preme court of the Jews at that
time. 1t was a learned tribunal,
venerated all over the Jewish world.
AS the lawyers might say, its writ
ran everywhere; its decisions were
quoted as precedent in Alexandria,
Babylon, Spain. You might have
expected it to be dignified, honor
able. But not on that night, with
that vicim.
You might as well expect q
pack of wolves, starved in mid
winter, to be dignified and hon.
orable with sheep in their
circle. These men, and their
intimate friends, had been de-
scribed by the Prisoner, not
long before, in words that stuck
In their brains like arrOwheads.
''Whited sepulchres =. full of
all uncleanness -. We say, and
do not yet devour widows
houses =. blind guides
offspring of vipers. -"
If there had been any hope that
they might change, Jesus would net
have used such words. So they had
made up their minds: He must die.
Now was their hour, while the city
slept. Leader of the pack was this
Caiaphas. AS the farce of trial
went on and the high priest by
grace of Rome faced Jesus, High
Priest by the grace Of God, what
did he see in Jesus eyes?
That Fox
IF CAIAPHAS was a wolf. Herod
l was a fox. 1t was Jesus nick
name for him. On that April morn
ing this fox had the surprise of his
lifetime. Before he could collect
his wits, he was facing the very man
whom his private police force had
been vainly trying to arrest = Jesus
of Nazareth. Two kings faced each
other in Herod's hall that morning.
The one wearing robe and crown,
seated on some kind Of throne, was
one Of the most un-kingly men who
ever bore the royal title. The other,
in plainest citizens clothes, and no
crown, no throne to be seen, was
the one real king VINO has lived
among men.

Dear Mr.. Moscovitz:
At last the Brandeis Camp In
stitute of the South is a reality.
/ have just returned from short
visit there and am excited and
thrilled with my experience. 1
want to share with you the exub-
erance and exhilaration that 1
feel.
You may have heard testimo-
malls from many graduates of
Brandeis. They sound exciting
and wonderful. However, you
may have had some reservation
about their enthusiasm, thinking
perhaps it was due to their youth.
Now, 1, a mature man, tell you in
all sincerity, that after spending
only a few days at the Brandeis
Camp, am as excited as they. l
have no fear for the future of the
American Jew if enough young
people will have the privilege Of
attending these camps. There
they are completely reorientated,
become Jewishly alive and lose
all completes caused by minority
status.
My words are not adequate to
describe the Brandeis Camp to
you. Therefore, 1 urge that you
give yourself a break. You are
cordially invited and will receive
a warm welcome.
There has been so much heart
ache and t'zorus for the Jew of
our generation. You owe it to
yourself, your family and your
friends to see something con-
structive and beautiful being
done for our youth. I cannot
urge you too strongly. Urge your
friends in your community to
take advantage of this invitation
to attend the First Annual Pag-
cant of the Brandeis Camp InSti-
tute of the South to be held Sun

money these people are doing
