George demonstrates in his "Moses" lecture how the social program of Moses, the emancipator, is consonant with his own philosophy and economics.
GEORGE SPEAKS OF the Mosaic state as "a commonwealth of the individual--a commonwealth whose ideal it was that every man should sit under his own vine and fig tree, with none to vex him or make him afraid" (George 1878, 12).
George seems to have overlooked that Moses was himself a Levite, who by his own decree had renounced land ownership and economic power for himself and his heirs.
