QUESTION:: Why is it CUSTOM
arY to refrain from taking any
thing out of house of mourning
during the seven-daY period of
"shivah?"
ANSWER: Some of the Rabbi
nical commentaries claim that an
evil spirit or the spirit of death
prevails over these objects during
that week. Other commentaries
claim that this expression was
used only to prevent people from
actually removing these objects.
This group claims that the reason
for this prohibition is to protect
the property of the deceased and
the property Of the mourners
since the latter are likely to give
away anything during the week.
In general, one might say that
the trend was to bring things into
the house of morning, such as
food, during the seven day period
and taking things away would
therefore be in bad taste, as well
as a reversal of the accepted prac-
tees. It might also be claimed that
the removal of anything from the
house of mourning might tend to
hurt the feelings Of the bereaved
who would remember the soul
that was taken away from their
midst.
y . . g
QUESTION: What is a "pid.
Yon?"
ANSWER: In colloquial terms,
especially amongst the Chasidim,
a "pidyon" is the amount given
to the Chasidic Rabbi for offering
prayers for the benefit of the
donor. The term "pidyon" means
ransom" and the implication is
that the donor ransoms his soul
with this presentation.
= -
QUESTION: What is the origin
IF This practice?
ANSWER: The idea of ransom
ing ones soul is mentioned in the
Bible in paying for damages done
by ones OK exodus 21:30) to an
>ther person. There are number
of explanations as to why Rabbi
should take such a gift from an
Individual for the prayers offered.
One claims that this is means of
redeeming ones soul with a sense
of charity. Another clai MS that in
order to seek the benefit of prayer
from the Almighty one should
indicate his disregard of the ma
terial as compared with the spirit
ual. Giving the ''pidyon" exempli-
fies the raising of the spiritual
over the material in life.
Another Interpretation claims
that giving the "pidyon" explains
to all why the individual did not
pray for himself. This is implified
in the fact that he gave another
man a "pidyon" to pray for him
and that, thus the other man was
actually a hired individual who
represented the donor himself be-
fore the Lord Almighty.

Church Fights
Segregation

PHILADELPHIA, May 6 (R.-
A move to abolish all forms of
racial segregation in the Presby-
terian Church in the USA was
launched at the church's general
assembly May 1925 at Los An
geles, 1t was disclosed yesterday.
The church, with headquarters
here. said the social education
and action division had prepared
an operation desegregation"
program for consideration of
delegates representing the
church's 2,658,000 members.
The division, in a preassembly
report, called on member
churches 'to work for desegre-
cation in housing In their own
communities, private as we'll as
public housing. and to refrain
from entering into arrange
ments or covenants that tend to
encourage segregation"
1t also urged election or ap-
pointment of qualified repre-
sentatives of Negro and/or other
minority groups to public posi-
ton in communities which in
clude these groups in their pop
ulationS."
Efforts are expected to con-
tinue for eventual union of the
Presbyterian Church in the
USA with the United Presby-
terian Church.
