Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sabbath Question: Sermon Delivered by Rabbi William Rosenau, May 22, 1897, Before Congregation "Oheb Shalom," Baltimore, MD It matters little whether our Philadelphia corelig ionist wrote in an earnest or satirical vein - and I am inclined to believe that it was the latter - yet so much, at least, is certain, that he was driven to his suggestion by his observation of the present hopeless plight of the historical Sabbath. We can not, must not and will not close our eyes to facts. Facts Speak for themselves. The Sabbath as our fathers observed it is among many a thing of the past. -it does not differ from the other days of the week. Neither its coming nor its going is hallowed by religious act. Its hours are not devoted as of old to uplifting wor ship, but to degrading drudgery. On it it is not the house of God that is sought, but the oflice, the counting-house, the store, the factory. The Jew, in fact, has no Sabbath. This statement holds good not only of the reformer, but of the most orthodox as well. Non-observant as the Jew may be, he, how ever, seems by no means ready to cut loose from religion altogether. The Jew is human, and, there fore, can not get away from his feeling of dependence upon and his desire of communion with the Being Supreme.

Book The Sabbath  A Sermon Delivered in the City of Washington  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Sabbath A Sermon Delivered in the City of Washington Classic Reprint written by John C. Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sabbath: A Sermon Delivered in the City of Washington There are two very common and very popular objections to the Sabbath, which, because of their popularity, become highly dangerous to the best interests of man. I shall therefore take up these objections, and examine them in the light of scripture and reason. I do it the more readily, because they proceed not merely from the scoffer and the infidel but from many who profess to love our Lord Jesus Christ and revere the institutions of the Bible; difficulties exist in many minds, while, perhaps, very few of us enjoy that clear light which God hath shed upon the subject.

Download or read book Down Home written by Leonard Rogoff and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping chronicle of Jewish life in the Tar Heel State from colonial times to the present, this beautifully illustrated volume incorporates oral histories, original historical documents, and profiles of fascinating individuals. The first comprehensive social history of its kind, Down Home demonstrates that the story of North Carolina Jews is attuned to the national story of immigrant acculturation but has a southern twist. Keeping in mind the larger southern, American, and Jewish contexts, Leonard Rogoff considers how the North Carolina Jewish experience differs from that of Jews in other southern states. He explores how Jews very often settled in North Carolina's small towns, rather than in its large cities, and he documents the reach and vitality of Jewish North Carolinians' participation in building the New South and the Sunbelt. Many North Carolina Jews were among those at the forefront of a changing South, Rogoff argues, and their experiences challenge stereotypes of a society that was agrarian and Protestant. More than 125 historic and contemporary photographs complement Rogoff's engaging epic, providing a visual panorama of Jewish social, cultural, economic, and religious life in North Carolina. This volume is a treasure to share and to keep. Published in association with the Jewish Heritage Foundation of North Carolina, Down Home is part of a larger documentary project of the same name that will include a film and a traveling museum exhibition, to be launched in June 2010.

Download or read book Roads Taken written by Hasia R. Diner and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the late 1700s and the 1920s, nearly one-third of the world’s Jews emigrated to new lands. Crossing borders and often oceans, they followed paths paved by intrepid peddlers who preceded them. This book is the first to tell the remarkable story of the Jewish men who put packs on their backs and traveled forth, house to house, farm to farm, mining camp to mining camp, to sell their goods to peoples across the world. Persistent and resourceful, these peddlers propelled a mass migration of Jewish families out of central and eastern Europe, north Africa, and the Ottoman Empire to destinations as far-flung as the United States, Great Britain, South Africa, and Latin America. Hasia Diner tells the story of millions of discontented young Jewish men who sought opportunity abroad, leaving parents, wives, and sweethearts behind. Wherever they went, they learned unfamiliar languages and customs, endured loneliness, battled the elements, and proffered goods from the metropolis to people of the hinterlands. In the Irish Midlands, the Adirondacks of New York, the mining camps of New South Wales, and so many other places, these traveling men brought change—to themselves and the families who later followed, to the women whose homes and communities they entered, and ultimately to the geography of Jewish history.

Book Goldberger s War

Download or read book Goldberger s War written by Alan M. Kraut and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For fans of Guns, Germs, and Steel, Alan M. Kraut's Goldberg's War tells the story of one doctor's courageous journey to cure deadly diseases and epidemics. Goldberger's War chronicles one of the U.S. Public Health Service's most renowned heroes--an immigrant Jew who trained as a doctor at Bellevue, became a young recruit to the federal government's health service, and ended an American plague. He did so by defying conventional wisdom, experimenting on humans, and telling the South precisely what it didn't want to hear. Kraut shows how Dr. Goldberger's life became, quite literally, the stuff of legends. On the front lines of the major public-health battles of the early 20th-century, he fought the epidemics that were then routinely sweeping the nation--typhoid, yellow fever, and the measles. After successfully confronting (and often contracting) the infectious diseases of his day, in 1914 he was assigned the mystery of pellagra, a disease whose cause and cure had eluded the world for centuries and was then afflicting tens of thousands of Americans every year, particularly in the emerging "New South." “Engrossing story of an American medical hero.” —The New England Journal of Medicine

Download or read book Yahweh Versus Baal written by Norman C. Habel and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-12-04 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1929, scholars have been concerned with the interpretation of certain Canaanite literary materials found at Ras Shamra in North Syria, known as Ugarit in ancient times. Attention has been paid, primarily, to certain linguistic and cultural parallels between this corpus of literature and sections of the Old Testament. But despite the numerous treatments of the isolated points of contact between Ugaritic and biblical thought, one major question has not received an adequate answer. How and to what extent are the Ugaritic texts, and especially the Baal texts, relevant for an appreciation of the fundamentals of the Israelite religion? Professor Habel seeks to answer at least part of this question by translating pertinent segments of the Baal texts, according to the sequence of G. R. Driver, summarizing their context, and considering their import, thought sequence, and basic ideas in relation to appropriate materials from the early faith of Israel. The succinct results of this comparison are provocative, to say the least. The author begins by isolating the major features of an underlying “conflict tradition.” The conflict between Israel’s beliefs and the religious forces of its environment was a vital influence in the formulation of Israel’s earliest religious faith and experience. The content of this faith as summarized in the concise wording of Exodus 19:3–6 is shown to be virtually identical with that of Israel’s earliest poetic heritage where a lively polemic against the Canaanite religious is discernible. One of the highlights of Professor Habel’s comparison of the Baal texts with Israel’s archaic poetic traditions is his contribution to the understanding of Exodus 15. In this connection he discovers a clearly defined sequence of ideas common to certain Baal texts and Exodus 15:1–18. By skillfully utilizing the work of other scholars the author sheds additional light on the polemical and theological import of several passages depicting theophanies of Yahweh. A similar evaluation of the relevance of the Ugaritic texts for the cultic practices of Israel is made possible by a sober evaluation of the pertinent texts.
