Sunday Law, Liberty and License: A Discourse Before the Sinai Congregation, December 16th, 1888 (Classic Reprint)

Emil Gustav Hirsch

0/5 ( ratings)

Excerpt from Sunday Law, Liberty and License: A Discourse Before the Sinai Congregation, December 16th, 1888

The Sabbath, as a joyful day of rest, should first benefit - the body.. Life is a great usurer. It watches most scrupulously the accounts of its depos1tors. It will allow no overdrafts, unless repaid most amply by compounded interests on the advances. Woe to him who has fallen into the hands of this most grasping of all creditors! Life stands upon the bond, it is inexorable. Now every stroke of the hammer on the anvil, every line of the pen, every thought ﬂowering in the mind is paid for in the currency of blood. Blood nurtures the muscles, feeds the brain and builds the nerves. It is the balance that' must always be to our credit on the ledger of life; for every outlay not replaced by a fresh deposit will visit dire consequences on him that is neglectful. And life now is still more grasping and exhausting than ever it was before.
