PLAIN TALK


Our rabbi James G. Heller.
gave us all scolding in a very
gentle way in a recent sermon.
It was Yom Kippur and that was
the day when practically all the
members would be in temple: an
opportune moment for a scolding
that was coming to them.
The rabbits sermon had to do
with the fact that most of us at
tend synagogue only on the two
high holidays. And where are
they on all the other holy days,
such as the Sabbath, which is as
holy as any?
Rabbi Heller wasn't complain
ing of this by reason Of any van
itY that might feel hurt because
he wasn't getting large audiences
to hear him preach on the Sab
bath. He didn't mind that. He
was speaking rather of what peo-
pie miss when once a week they
don't take the opportunity to join
in the cleansing experience Of
prayer.
Afterward, as they issued from
the synagogue people were talk
ing about the scolding they just
had. They guessed it was coming
to them.
One confessed: Really. I can't
remember when I was in the
synagogue last on the Sabbath"
Another made excuses: "But
what can I do about it? 1 got to
be in my store"
This Mr.. Segal himself had it
all doublY on his conscience. you
might say: since he had no store
to go to and every Saturday he
is released from his workadaY
job. This is on account of the
Newspaper Guild contract which
says he shall work only five days
a week for the daily newspaper
for which he writes. and on the
sixth and seventh day rest. This
is a considerable improvement on
the Commandment which says
six days he shall labor and on the
seventh rest
Now at the moment when the
rabbits reproaches still were
fresh on his conscience he re-
membered a prophecy he gave
out in this column long ago. He
said that when the five-day be-
came universal-as it almost has
in the more recent years-Jews
would be going back to syna-
gogue worship on the Sabbath,
and the synagogue would become
crowded on the Sabbath as of
old.
But here's this Mr.. Segal. re-
leased from work on the Sabbath
yet not performing his Sabbath
duty. anyhow. On the Sabbath
he sleeps late by way Of compen-
sating himself for his having to
get out Of bed every morning at
2 on weekdays.
Now that he is unaware of Sat
urday being the Jewish Sabbath.
Indeed, the consciousness of this
hits him with considerable force
'This is the Sabbath and
!, what am I doing in bed at the
hour of 9? I should be up and
away to the synagogue. I myself
have deplored other Jews who
know only Rosh Hashonah and
Yom Kippur.',
