Excerpt from The Doctrine of Merits in Old Rabbinical Literature

In the Introduction we have to treat first of all philo logically the different terms which denote the ideas under lying this doctrine in their various forms. This leads to the description of the doctrine of God's grace as far as it is connected with our subject. Secondly, to the idea of treasuries upon heaven and the share in the future life. Thirdly, the theological, philosophical, ethical, and social aspects of this doctrine will be pointed out. A bibliography of works on and references to this doctrine in more recent literature will conclude this Introduction.
