Excerpt from An Appeal to the Jewish People It is true, I have penetrated far into the Holy of Holies; I have boldly - my enemies say madly crossed the Rubicon, and trodden an unfrequented path, hitherto shunned like the pest by every Jew, and especially bv their Rabbis. I have paid homage to the founder of Christianity, and rendered Him praise as the Redeemer of the the Saviour, the long-expected Messiah of the Jews. But, humanly speaking, do not our eventful, truly epochal times, require extraordinary means, bold thoughts, and thorough reforms? Are not new men now more than ever needed, who, conscious of the purpose oftheir being, shall be as new_channels of good to all peoples of every family and race? And is not this also the need 'of Israel? Scattered in all the world, fallen out in himself and with himself, dismembered, disunited Israel, who has yearned so longingly, and yet in vain, for the coming of the Angel of the Covenantl' \vhat! Who! Can effect the regeneration and resurrection of Israel? W ho shall bring to pass the prophesied miracle of Ezekiel? (xxxvii.)
