Excerpt from Ha-Yehudim U-Mikveh YisraelHa-Jehudim and Mikveh Israel supplies a want long felt by the student of this wonderful people. Many ponderous tomes are sometimes searched in vain for a single fact or circumstance relative to the Jew or Judiaism. Here, within a reasonable compass, is brought together a mass of information such as many volumes would be sifted in vain to furnish. Unquestionably, many learned and devoted men have written on the subject, and yet have failed to accomplish all that the present volume has achieved.For such a work the learned and accomplished author has enjoyed special qualifications. Satisfactorily and suceessfully has he performed it. Himself for many years a devoted Jew, a distinguished Rabbi, a profound scholar, a tireless student to this hour, Dr. Freshman possessed abilities, qualities and facilities for the work undertaken, such as few men, in any land, could claim.And it is surprising how much is crowded into a volume of less than five hundred pages! Everything, apparently, relating to the Jewish people, their manners, customs, religion, language, literature, practices, belief, temple, money, schools, chirurgery, lost tribes, Rabbies, traditions, is given in the volume, so that to the reader the marvel is, how so much is found within so small a compass.To the theological student, whether old or young, but especially to the latter, this volume will be a priceless treasure. No such student can afford to he without it. No Minister's library will be complete if Ha-Jehudim be not there.The lover of Jewish literature will find the following pages a mine of gold to him. Not a mine where now and then a little gold may be found, and that, after much labour, but gold all through the mine and inviting acceptance.The devout Christian will, as he reads, be constantly reminded of the purity and goodness, the truth and justice of his Heavenly Father. His sympathies for the Jew and for humanity will grow stronger, and his love for his God will grow warmer as he reads Ha-Jehudim and Mikveh Israel.The richest blessing of heaven is invoked on the Book, the Reader, and the Author.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
