Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Path of Israel, or Abridgment of the Holy Scriptures, Vol. 1: For the Use of the Youth of Our Nation In presenting the fifth number of the Miscellany to the public, we cannot let it pass without addressing an earnest request to all lovers of Jewish literature, to cast a serious look upon the work accomplished during the first year of the existence of the American Jewish Publication Society. Commencing as it did in an experiment of a few persons, who justly deemed that a imited effort of the Jews would enable them to place a mass of good reading within the reach of even the poorest families; they have succeeded thus far in issuing five works, and in paying for the same from the contribution of one dollar by the regular members, the sale of a limited number of the works, and a few donations, from rightly disposed persons, though none of these contributions amounted to more than ten dollars. Four of the works are reprints from English books; but the present is a translation from the French, of the teacher at the congregation school at Strasburg; and all of them, even the English, were nearly inaccessible to the general reader, except the first, Caleb Asher, from the high price at which they are held, and the smallness of the original editions. But not alone have we been enabled to pay for all the publications, we have also a full surplus of one hundred and fifty dollars to defray the expenses of the current year. There can therefore be not the least doubt that, if we are properly supported by subscriptions and donations, we shall be able to increase the means of mental culture among us, whilst at the same time the burden will not be felt by any one; as the annual sumof 07 ie dollar is certainly too inappreciably small for nearly all American Israelites, to cause them the least inconvenience.
