intent to strike the fatal blow upon Israel, with the impious
notive of trying to blot them off the face of the Earth. But
like the very Empires of over which they tyranically ruled, they
have crumbled into the dust of their Mother Earth. Israel's faith
and hope have proved through the test of harsh & bitter
experience to be as strong & as lasting as the very religion
of their birth. The light of the pure monotheistic faith
burns within the recesses of the Jewish heart, even now, with
as bright a lustre as it did in times of yore. We display
it more conspicuously than ever at this season of the year
by the rallying of our forces. Armed with this undying
faith in the truth and the eternity of Judaism, Israel
has demonstrated to the world his strength & stability.
Now, if ever, on this last day of Penitence, the solemnity
of the occasion must have exterted some influence over
us.| If the truth and the viatlity of our religion will
have settled in our hearts & souls as an abiding vision,
if on this day, we become convinced of the purity of its
doctrines and of the sympathetic love for mankind that
runs through them; if we, moreover, this day, leave
this sacred place of worship | Page 4[fol. iv.]
