Athens Jews Will
Celehrate Annual
Feasts of Week
Beginning Sunday evenirg,
June 1, and contiunitg through
Mondav June 2, the Jews of Ath
ens will celebrate the Feast of
Week, known by its Hebrew
name Shabuoth. This is one of the
three major festivals in'the Jew
ish religious calendar the obse:v
ance of which is enjoined in the
Bible.
The festival commemorates the
giving of the Ten Commandments
at Mount Sirai, the greatest
event in the spiritual history of
mankind, It took place, according
to the biblical account in the Book
of Exodus, seven weeks after the
exodu~ from Egypt. ’
Rabbi Joseph Utschen, com
menting on the festival said:
“Moses appa-ently realised that
mere physical freedom was not
enough, that as long as Israel had
ro spiritual guide whereby to
fashion their life they were not
vet free. He conceived this eter
nal t-uth that a people is not
truly free until it is guided by
a spiritual mode of life which
forges it into a strong moral
foree in the world. Freedom from
physical slavery alone does not
establish the freedom of a peo
ple.” :
The festival will be appropri
ately observed with special holi
day services in the Synagogue
Sunday evening at eight o’clock
and Morday morning at ten
o'clock. At the Sunday evening
service Rabbi Utschen will preach
on the subject “Shall We Face
God ?” : | :
“ At the Monday morning service
there will also take place the
closing exercises of the Sabbath
school. Several members of the
<chool will take vart in the se~v
jce and various prizes will be an
nonmeed.
The public is welcome.
| o’clock and that’s when this: pa
;rade is leaving. sir.”
| “Very well, General. I shall
| have to inform the White House,”
| the officer said. “But the Presi
| dent wanted to review you, you
fknow.”
{ ST can’t help that, we start at
| ten o'clock, and I'm no ‘gereral’;
| just plain Mawson!” ;
1" But the rand Marshal of the
parade relented somewhat on pe
tition of associates after word
i came from the White House that
;the P-esident would wait.
