OCLC: Libraries Worldwide that have this item: 9. Singerman JUDAICA AMERICANA 1026. Rosenbach 637. Original blue printed wrappers with ornamental borders, stitched. The pamphlet is the address of 'An Israelite to the Christian World,' asserting "that Israelites view with as much concern and regret as devout Christians, the lamentable attempts to instill disbelief in a Divine revelation" Lindo argues that God's Covenant with the Jews "has never been intermittent, but has always been and still continues to be in operation" Through the revelation they received at Sinai, "the world is indebted for the civilization it now enjoys and will continue to be indebted for the preservation of that civilization" Christianity, he says, was "originally a Jewish sect, adhering strictly to the monotheism of the Old Testament," but it has "gradually become so perverted as to remove it from what it was originally" Not in Sabin, Thomson, Eberstadt, Decker.
