About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from The Main Principles of the Creed and Ethics of Jews

The translator moreover trusts that English critics will be too generous to think of putting to the test of severe criticism the English of a foreigner, who came to this country but a very few years ago, at a period of life not the most favorable for acquiring a new language, and destitute even of the slight est acquaintance with the English tongue. Any remarks which they may condescend to make, tending either to set him right respecting any particular passages in which he may not have hit upon the precise meaning of his Author, or to point out to him any additional means by which these Selections may be made to answer more completely the purpose for which they are intended, will be received with sincere thanks, acknowledged in the most unequivocal manner, and, if found just, duly noticed in any future edition.
