Emendations of the text have been avoided unless supported by good authority, and always by that of the original Arabic, as, for instance, in Chapter VIII, [82] where all the Hebrew sources are at fault, the manuscripts and editions reading, ואמרו, אמתתו, ומתוך, or אמתתו ואמרו. The Arabic פהלכוא points plainly to an original ומתו. Initially, I fell asleep twice on two separate occasions trying to read this story, I got up to chap 7 I think.
The perfect Law which leads us to perfection—as one who knew it well testifies by the words, "The Law of the Lord is perfect restoring the soul; the testimonies of the Lord are faithful making wise the simple" [27]—recommends none of these things (such as self-torture, flight from society etc.). On the contrary, it aims at man's following the path of moderation, in accordance with the dictates of nature, eating, drinking, enjoying legitimate sexual intercourse, all in moderation, and living among people in honesty and uprightness, but not dwelling in the wilderness or in the mountains, or clothing oneself in garments of hair and wool, or afflicting the body. The Law even warns us against these practices, if we interpret it according to what tradition tells us is the meaning of the passage concerning the Nazarite, "And he (the priest) shall make an atonement for him because he hath sinned against the soul." [28] The Rabbis ask, "Against what soul has he sinned? Against his own soul, because he has deprived himself of wine. Is this not then a conclusion a minori ad majus? If one who deprives himself merely of wine must bring an atonement, how much more incumbent is it upon one who denies himself every enjoyment." [29] Cf. Eth. Nic., II, 9, "for we ourselves sometimes praise those who are defective in this feeling (anger), and we call them gentle; at another, we term the hot-tempered manly and spirited."

Good schools” are considered by many people to be mostly white schools, McGhee writes. But all schools should be good schools, she argues. Moreover, the budgets of all schools are being depleted because a disproportionate number of white parents send their children to private schools. People don’t recognize that there is a benefit to attending an integrated school, where they can learn to work with a group of people that resembles America. There is a solidarity dividend to integration. Munk, Mélanges, p. 323; HUb., p. 415; M. Guttmann, Das religionsphil. System der Mutakallimun nach d. Berichte Maimon (Leipzig, 1885); D.

Cf. ibid., “Virtue, then, is a disposition of the moral purpose in relative balance, which is determined by a standard, according as the thoughtful man would determine. It is a middle state between two faulty ones, in the way of excess on one side, and defect on the other; and it is so, moreover, because the faulty states on one side fall short of, and those on the other side exceed, what is right, both in the case of the emotions and the actions; but virtue finds, and, when found, adopts the mean.” Cf.

Studies have shown that it is beneficial for white students to attend diverse schools. Once the study controlled for socioeconomic status, it found that white students’ test scores were not lower based upon whether they attended a predominately white school or a diverse one. Moreover, students who attend diverse schools are more empathetic and understanding of differences and, therefore, more able to work in a diverse workplace, a key to success.
