Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Synagogue and the Church: Being a Contribution to the Apologetics of Judaism
The fortunes and achievements of the Jewish people were for a period of over a thousand years, and well into modern times, considered in Europe as the pivot of Universal History. A larger view of historiography has brought about a more proportionate appreciation of the various elements which go to the making of civilization, but the Jews still remain the people of religion par excellence. Now, we may regard Religion as exercising a good or evil influence, but we must recognize its importance as a determining factor in human life, and, while we may condemn or applaud, we cannot ignore, the decisive part played by the Jews in the religious evolution of mankind.
