T ESSONS dealing with the mi-
' grations of peoples, exiles
and enslavements in the ancient
world have particular timeliness
in these modern days.
What happened to Jews in
Germany during the past decade conforms almost exactly to
what happened to Jews in Egypt
in the years following the time
of Joseph. When Jacob and his
company went down to Egypt,
they were received with honor,
md all went well for a time.
Then there arose "a Pharaoh
who knew not Joseph," and
trouble  began.
I suppose that much of it
was as in modern times. The
prosperous Jews evoked the envy of less prosperous, less efficient Egyptians, who, for their
own self-interest and aggrandizement, made trouble for the
"foreigners." It is the thing
that has happened in Germany.
In Germany, from prosperity
and prestige, Jews regardless of
their character and achievement
were suddenly plunged into persecution and ruin. Artists, writers, musicians, along with unoffending humble people, were
suddenly assailed with hate and
brutal violence, for no reason
except their being Jews. Even
the oppression in ancient Egypt
did not compare with this organized hatred.
Against all such hate, and
base treatment of minorities,
is the true spirit of Christianity, and of democracy itself. Joseph had saved and blessed the
very Egyptians who persecuted
and oppressed his people.
Two things are necessary if
we would avoid the pitfalls that
have plunged the world into war,
and the hates and prejudices
•that have produced strife and
defeated social welfare. To all
alike, who live peaceably and
in law-abiding ways, we must
(1) assure the full protection
of the law and the rights and
privileges* which the State accords; and (2) upon all alike
lay the duty of loyalty to the
country. Democracies cannot
continue and be strong where
(there is divided allegiance.
