Show LOUIS ZUCKER #2 the way things were being done here. I spoke of this to him. I told him about my non-experience with President Glick. He may have taken it to heart, but he reads a little better. . . . . ? HR: Is this in the reading or is this in giving a sermon. LZ: No. I am talking about the reading. HR: The reading. Okay. LZ: I am talking about the davenate, if you want to call it that. I am talking about the reading, yes. In full liturgy you are talking to God. Feelings. RD: Rabbi Bergman, was he trained as a Conservative or as a Reformed? LZ: No. Reformed. He comes from a more traditional back-ground, like most of us. Of course, if I were teaching today, I would give a lot more stress to Hebrew there. On the campus when I was teaching a Bible course, almost from the time I began teaching the Bible course in 1930, I think it was, I thought that one of the things I should do for the students is read some of the things in Hebrew. Because, who else is going to do it for them? Who else is going to read them the "Twenty-Third Psalm" in the original Hebrew? Who else is going to read a passage from the prophets? From Amos, let' s say, or Isaiah in the Hebrew original? If I do not, who else? In the whole university, 72 |
