Excerpt from Aspects of Jewish Life and Thought (the Letters of Benammi) N the experience of the writer of the following pages, while many people are greatly interested in the Jews, comparatively few are possessed of a true knowledge of Jewish ideals, the Jewish faith, or Jewish life. The present volume, it is hoped, will throw light on important aspects of these subjects, and will show that Judaism inculcates the purest principles of humanity, that it regards social service as the highest charity, and that to-day as of old it commands Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
