Te Kopara 51
[3] Te Kopara, Number 51, Gisborne, 12 January, 1918.
‘Iti te Kopara, kai takirikiri ana i runga i te Kahikatea.’
Although the Bellbird is small, he plucks at the Kahikatea. [cf Nga Pepeha 908]
THE HOLY CITY.
The Holy City has fallen; Jerusalem has fallen! The Christian Church rejoices. It is happy because for seven hundred years now the Christian Church has not been able to flutter over the walls of Jerusalem and, at last, it can. The Jews are weeping with joy because they now know that their home will be returned to them; it is as if at last the heavens have responded to their cries of distress over the past several hundred years.
