The, holiday was ordained in the Jewish tradition as a perpetual warning thata slave has no existence worthy of tiie human being andthat only in fireedom can manrise .to his true estate.

Therefore he rongedNnot cnly for his own liberatiaii. at the Passover season, but for a more en¬ lightened day when all men would be fireie.
