The directive of building the Holy Ark includes the command- ment of making three cases. Rashi in quoting our Chazal states: ry -pn: nm bw: :nr -pn: YS? bw in in: A wooden case was placed in a golden one and into the wooden case was placed another golden case. We understand the reason for the use of gold. It has great value and does not disintegrate. What can be more fitting as the enclosure for an eternal Torah. But why the use of wood? Wood is one of the most temporary of all materials. The elements and time cer- tainly destroy it. The greatness of wood is not found in its material value but in its very making. For us to have wood we must have a tree which is alive, which blossoms, and which continues to grow until it reaches great heights. g Our written Torah and the volumes of our Talmud have eternal value. They must, however, be transferred to a living human being to continue to grow. This has been the task of our Roshei Yeshiva during your years of learning in our Yeshiva High School. It is our earnest hope that we will have developed Torah personalities, who are aware of the opportunities to continue growing. Sincerest congratulations upon your graduation. May the mes- sage of your alma mater be clearly stamped on your future life.
