Snow Siege" In
Jerusalem Broken

TEL AVN (JTA) = SPRING
like sunshine and American bull
dozers this week broke the "snow
siege" of Jerusalem, clearing the
main roads in and around the
city. However, the lowest tenn
peratures in the memory of the
oldest inhabitants still hampered
all work in Upper Galilee and the
Haifa area where interuban traf-
fic was virtually paralyzed.
The city of Salad remained
completely isolated from the rest
of the country and in Haifa all
port operations were at a stand
still, as were most services in the
city. High seas prevented Is YES
sells from entering the harbor.
Telegraphic communications be-
tween Jerusalem and Tel Aviv
were partially restored this week
and one freight train from Har-
tuv = plowed its way through
two-foot drifts earlier.

QUESTION: Is it true that Jew
ish law prohibits the practice of
hunting? If SO why? Submit
ted by MS. Brooklyn. N. "
ANSWER: Hunting for the sole
purpose of sport or entertainment
is expressly prohibited by Jewish
law. The famous Rabbi Meir of
Rothenberg (Resp. No. ~ said
that a Jew who hunts for sport
will not enjoy a share in "the
world to come" Maimonodies
claimed that he who kills birds
for sport transgressed the word of
the Bible Deut. 2O:19 which for
babe man ever to cut down a tree
that bears fruit.
In this restriction one finds
what might be the core of the
logic which prohibits hunting. It
was un-Jewish to destroy for the
sake of destruction or sport only.
Mans function on this world was
to multiply and to build. Some
writers claim that hunting was
prohibited on the grounds that it
was cruel. Others claim that the
Jew is bound by dietary laws to
refrain from eating so many liv-
ing things, and no hunting would
be improbable and might even
tempt him to eat forbidden foods.
It must be made clear though
that Jew is allowed to hunt to
obtain food, or clothing.
QUESTION: What is the Eter.
nal Light?"
ANSWER: The eternal light"
is the term applied to the light
that is constantly kept burning
in the synagogue over the ark.
It is called the ''Ner Tomid" in
Hebrew, and sometimes the "Ner
Hamaarovi." The custom dates
back to the instructions issued in
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1950-02-17

the Bible to the priests to keep
a light burning eternally in the
Holy Temple. The reason for this
commandment is believed by GER
tain writer's to symbolic the
eternity of the universe and it's
creator, symbolic of the fact that
the Almighty is always watching
over man. Others look upon it
as a symbol that the people of
Israel is eternal. Still others feel
it symbolizes the fact that Israel
is to be source of light for all
the nations.
