.70 fire 7943 gracfuafing KKCLJJ My dear young Friends: You have spent a number of years within the four walls of the Yeshiva, where you have received a dual form of education: one a Torah and traditional education, the other, a secular education-one endeavoring to inspire you with the divine word of G-d, and the other with human knowledge, with the creative ingenuity and theor- ies as formulated by the human mind. This is what our late Rosh-Yeshiva, Dr. Bernard Revel, of blessed memory, used to cali the harmonious blending between religious and secular education. There was a time when people thought that a secular education would be the salvation of humanity from the misfortunes and bigotry that might befall mankind. The twentieth century, however, has refuted this theory, for never in the history of the world has knowledge been so widely spread as in our present century, and never before in the history ot mankind have human knowiedge and secular discoveries been used for such destructive forces as they are at the present. Whatever technical progress the world has made is used today destructively, by leaders, whose morals are of the dark ages and the iungle. The fact is, however, that human knowledge can never serve as the salvation of humanity. The fruits of human knowledge can be used for both construction and destruction. As human beings, we are naturally interested in the mysteries of the universe and in the various research of the human intellect, but such a form of education, as important as it may be, will never serve as a mode of living, will never lift one to higher. spiritual and moral levels. It is only through our faith in our Creator, the sacred origin of mankind, and through the spiritual and ethical values of the Torah that we can serve a higher purposes in life and be true to ourselves an our Creator, to whom we owe our being. The Yeshiva, through its teaching of the sacred mode of living based upon the concept of the Torah, endeavors to give you a spiritual and moral way of life. What- ever secular education you have received here merely complements the Jewish re- ligious and moralt training, which affords you the directive value of the good life. These sacred values above all you must bear in mind. SAMUEL BELKIN, President of Yeshiva Y
