{"product_id":"2940015471380","title":"JUDAISM","description":"FOREWORD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe writer has attempted in this volume to take up a few of the most\u003cbr\u003echaracteristic points in Jewish doctrine and practice, and to explain\u003cbr\u003esome of the various phases through which they have passed, since the\u003cbr\u003efirst centuries of the Christian era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe presentation is probably much less detached than is the case\u003cbr\u003ewith other volumes in this series. But the difference was scarcely\u003cbr\u003eavoidable. The writer was not expounding a religious system which has\u003cbr\u003eno relation to his own life. On the contrary, the writer is himself a\u003cbr\u003eJew, and thus is deeply concerned personally in the matters discussed\u003cbr\u003ein the book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe reader must be warned to keep this fact in mind throughout. On the one\u003cbr\u003ehand, the book must suffer a loss of objectivity; but, on the other hand,\u003cbr\u003ethere may be some compensating gain of intensity. The author trusts,\u003cbr\u003eat all events, that, though he has not written with indifference, he\u003cbr\u003ehas escaped the pitfall of undue partiality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI.
