The Jewish Education Question in Melbourne: With the Views Thereon of the Rev. Joseph Abrahams, M.A., Ph; D., and the Rev. Joseph Friedlander (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Jewish Education Question in Melbourne: With the Views Thereon of the Rev. Joseph Abrahams, M.A., Ph; D., And the Rev. Joseph Friedlander
The fact that there are twice as many girls whose education in Hebrew, etc., is being neglected as there are boys indicates a defect pregnant with as much mischief as any other that has been named.
There is, I wrote 011 a former occasion, an unreasonable, indefensible notion prevalent that it is not necessary for girls to know as much as boys, even where it is admitted that they should know something. There could be no more fatal error than this. The devotional feelings, if not even the spiritual nature of the gentler sex, are more easily and lastingly aroused than those of the other sex. It is simply destruction to Judaism to nourish the idea that the future wives and mothers of Jews should not even be more embued with the spirit and ideals of their race than the future men. From their earnestness and steadfastness the husband should learn to remember his duties in the struggle for existence at their knees, and from their lips the future infant should first learn to lisp its prayers, to exercise its young, ardent imagination with the annals of its race.
