The Religious Question Box m m m m m m Readers of The Indianapolis Times are inrited ta send in questions retarding the Protestant, Catholic or Jewish faiths. Questions will be answered in this column as promptly as possible. They should be addressed to The Times or to the National Conference of Jews and Christians. 2*9 Feurth-aT. New Torh City. Where a personal reply la desired It should be so stated.

Q —What is the significance of the candles lit in Jewish homes on Friday night and how many candles are used? 4 A—The Talmud makes the lighting of the lights obligatory on both male and female as a way of welcoming the Sabbath. However, it has generally fallen to the Jewish women to observe this custom. A minimum of two lights are required, one representing the command to “remember” the Sabbath as contained in the Ten Commandments in Exodus, and the other to “guard” the Sabbath as given in Deuteronomy. In ancient times olive oil was used in a lamp which had a double wick, analogous to the two candles. Candles came into use during the middle ages. Q —What provision does the Catholic Church make with regard to religious instruction for Catholic children who attend public schools? A—Father Thomas F. Coakley of Pittsburgh answers: “The methods of instructing Catholic pupils in public schools differ with each diocese, and sometimes with each city or locality. The general rule is that each child must receive religious instruction twice a week. This is done either at the Catholic Church or the Catholic parish school, or, in some cases, at a central point near the public sch>>i, or, as at Gary, in a central city point. “In no instance that I am aware of is it done in the public school itself; most state constitutions forbid this. This instruction is given either by sisters, or the

priest himself, or by lay teachers, either paid or volunteer. “In my own parish we have rented seven houses across the street from the seven public schools in the parish, and we have four sisters on full time doing the instructing, giving each Catholic child two hours of instruction each week, after school hours. When not engaged in instructing, they look up the children who should attend, and who do not do so regularly.” Q—How old are the oldest existing manuscripts of the Bible? A—By a manuscript of the Bible is meant a written copy of it which preserved it until the invention of printing. The oldest manuscript of the entire Old Testament in Hebrew is the St. Petersburg Codex which dates 1009 A. D. ManuAript portions of the Old Testament have been discovered which date from 820-850 A. D. The oldest known Bibical manuscript is a papyrus at Leiden containing a Hebrew text of the Decalogue from the second or third century A. D. The principal manuscripts of the New Testament or portions of it date from the fourth, fifth and sixth centuries. Several fragments of the New Testament written on papyrus have been found, two at least of which are assigned to the third century. There is no original or “autograph” manuscript of any portion of the Bible known to be in existence. Q —What is meant by the battle of Armageddon? A—Armageddon is the name

applied to the tableland of Esdraelon In Galilee and Samaria, the site of ancient Magiddo and
