heading on translation of ot seven books of or the Old Testament but It should be read In the knowledge that revision of ot the Bible has been going on for many years under a commission of or Catholic scholars tops In I exegetical research The Bible at best Is only a translation with the fallings failings of or translation It has mistakes meanings meanings meanings' I of or the original texts not Just exactly rendered Into our our English and how could It be otherwise Even the Koran Bible pf f the Muslims written In their own Arabic Is said to have hundreds of or mistakes but they are accepted as Inviolable Inviolable In In- violable sacred utterances of their prophet prophet prophet pro pro- phet so subject to no correction what what- I Iso so 80 ever But our Bible Is still In the state of or becoming better revised as the I years go on For example In fn the Book of or Proverbs quoted by Tribune a are I revised revised re- re I reading now runs Like the man who seizes a a 11 passing dog by the ears ears Is he who meddles In a quarrel not his own and boyl boy I That's a forcible expression expression express sion of or a meddler not minding his own own business we have the saying to hold a amad amad amad mad sow by the ears and its it's something to hold for even a second The Bible I abounds In short snappy sayings taken from the natural life Ute as on Tobias' Tobias re return return return re- re I turn to home his dog wagged his tall taU In Joy to see him again That's something something something some some- thing men see so often otten on entering home after absence at work or away from the house There are many such known by 1 students as Obiter Dicta and its it's a adelight adelight delight to note them j t tWe TIlE THE BEAUTY OF THE PSALMS We would wish every

history and enumeration enumeration enumeration tion of or the grand themes the central Ideas within it In particular it would mean so much to themselves to study the Psalms of or King David to know wh what t. t a Psalm Is to see its loveliness in poetry its key words and its themes worked out in the Hebrew parallelism the Juxta position of or dual Ideas Our mass begins with Psalm 42 it is full of extracts from the magnificent arrangement arrange arrange- meat ment of ot them to suit each division of our church year In Lent stress is on need of or penance Easter brings Joy in a newly arisen Savior with Alleluias in a Paean of or praise In our funeral services the Psalms lead the way ending In the hopeful Canticle of or Zachary Blessed Blesse Is the Lord God of Israel Israe who has visited I I I and redeemed His people and so in inI death we are not as a people abandoned by Him Every priest recites dally daily these Psalms In his office of or the day from his hla breviary and
