His thorough knowledge of the Midrash, and the startling uses he made of it in his sermons, distinguish him especially from all his contemporaries and predecessors. In his discourses he is the most brilliant apologist of Judaism and the most accomplished and courageous opponent of all its enemies, both within and without the Synagogue. All his addresses are timely answers of Judaism to present-day questions and problems of intellectual and national life, of religion and science. With admirable insight he immediately recognizes in every midrash the whole structure of the original discourse. Jellinek also produced a large number of scholarly works in numerous fields [as this work]. " (JE) SUBJECT(S) : Jews, Proverbs. Edgeworn; pages dark. Leaves brittle and chipping; some detached.
