I declare them devoted : I ban them. " " Oh ! " exclaims the priest, " then they are altogether mine, for that which is devoted belongs to the Lord. " And so he took the sheep, leaving the widow and her children helpless. This story, its evident caricature notwithstanding, is introduced into the Midrash with the object of showing how, if people are determined to prove Judaism to be a burden, they will have no difficulty about it. No ingenuity in the world will ever make it a mere holiday religi...on. " Renunciation " is written on every page of that law, whose influence is to penetrate all the cir- cumstances and conditions of our life, to mingle with our business and our pleasures, to mould our conversa- tion and our thoughts. But there is one thing we must not overlook. Religion calls for renunciation, but man cannot renounce unless he also possesses. And how little of all the manifold gifts with which man is blessed is he, after all, required to surrender. Even in the rabbinical parable the poor woman could not leave the corner of her field unreaped unless a field had first been hers, nor give her tithe, until the harvest had yielded her ten times that amount.
