ABSTRACT
Judaism has been shown worthy of the Jew's allegiance and chivalrous solicitude even in these latter days, fit still to be the inspirer of his thoughts and the guide of his life. The conviction that his religion contained the elements of a world-religion, that time would justify his conception of the truth, has been the one sustaining force that has nerved the Israelite to face his age-long martyrdom. The idea of a missionary Israel is no anachronism. The Jew has still a message for men which it will profit them to hear and to heed. In the domain of theology there are certain great conceptions which have yet fully to enter into the consciousness of mankind. The Supreme has yet to be universally acknowledged as the Absolute, the Unique Being, truly one and perfect, immeasurably exalted above human comprehension and human defects alike, whom Judaism proclaims.
