The Jews In English History: A Lecture

The Jews in English History is a valuable historical lecture that covers a period of eight centuries. It is full of reliable information, calculated not only to disarm prejudice, but also to bring a thorough awakening among all members of the Church in bringing Jew and Gentile into one fold, and to excite admiration and provoke love and prayer on behalf of the People to whom God has given many great and precious promises. EXCERPT FROM The Jews in English History INTRODUCTION I have been favoured with the proof sheets of the following lecture on "The Jews in English History," and I have derived much pleasure is well as profit from their perusal. The author is Mr. E. G. Atkinson, of the Public, Record Office, who is well known in Presbyterian circles for his researches amongst original documents for facts elucidating the history of their Church. The production of this lecture is timely. There is at present a spirit of inquiry among the Jews, which their own traditional writings do not satisfy, and in many quarters there is a disposition to listen to the proofs that are given in favour of Jesus Christ being their own Messiah, and consequently their only Lord and Saviour. Among other Missions to the Ancient People our own holds a distinct place, and there is a desire, not only to continue our operations in Whitechapel, but to extend them. What is needed is a thorough awakening among all the members of our Church to the need there is for bringing Jew and Gentile into one fold. The conversion of the world waits for this consummation. Mr. Atkinson's lecture is a valuable contribution towards the end for which our Jewish Mission Committee is now labouring, and I cordially recommend it, not only to the members and friends of our own Church, but to all who love the Lord Jesus Christ and His appearing. The history covers a period of eight centuries, and is full of reliable information, calculated not only to disarm prejudice, but also to excite admiration, and to provoke to love and prayer on behalf of the People to whom God has given many great and precious promises.
