Israel Abrahams (b. London, November 26, 1858; d. Cambridge, October 6, 1925) was one of the most distinguished Jewish scholars of his generation. He wrote a number of classics on Judaism, most notably, Jewish Life in the Middle Ages (1896). He was a forceful lecturer and an earnest lay preacher. As honorary secretary of the Jewish Historical Society of England and as a member of the Committee for Training Jewish Teachers, he was very active. He was also a member of the Committee of the Anglo-Jewish Association, and of several other institutions of the community.

"Judaism is often called the religion of reason. It is this, but it is also the religion of the soul. It recognises the value of that mystic insight, those indefinable intuitions which, taking up the task at the point where the mind impotently abandons it, carries us straight into the presence of the King." Israel Abrahams was one of the most distinguished Jewish scholars of his time. In this volume he attempted to take up a few of the most characteristic points in Jewish doctrine and practice, and to explain the various phases through which they have passed, since the first centuries of the Christian era. It is here followed by "Chapters on Jewish Literature", a work which has been compiled with the definite aim of providing an elementary manual designed for those who may wish to master some of the leading characteristics of the subject, without burdening themselves with too many details and dates.

Chapters on Jewish Literature by Israel Abrahams The story of Jewish literature, after the destruction of the Temple at Jerusalem in the year 70 of the Christian era, centres round the city of Jamnia. Jamnia, or Jabneh, lay near the sea, beautifully situated on the slopes of a gentle hill in the lowlands, about twenty-eight miles from the capital. When Vespasian was advancing to the siege of Jerusalem, he occupied Jamnia, and thither the Jewish Synhedrion, or Great Council, transferred itself when Jerusalem fell. A college existed there already, but Jamnia then became the head-quarters of Jewish learning, and retained that position till the year 135. At that date the learned circle moved further north, to Galilee, and, besides the famous school at Lydda in Judea, others were founded in Tiberias, Usha, and Sepphoris. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

These twenty-five short chapters on Jewish Literature open with the fall of Jerusalem in the year 70 of the current era, and end with the death of Moses Mendelssohn in 1786. Thus the period covered extends over more than seventeen centuries. Yet, long as this period is, it is too brief. To do justice to the literature of Judaism even in outline, it is clearly necessary to include the Bible, the Apocrypha, and the writings of Alexandrian Jews, such as Philo. Only by such an inclusion can the genius of the Hebrew people be traced from its early manifestations through its inspired prime to its brilliant after-glow in the centuries with which this little volume deals.Chapters include: The "Vineyard" At Jamnia; Flavius Josephus And The Jewish Sibyl; The Talud; The Midrash And Its Poetry; The Letters Of The Gaonim; The Karaitic Literature; The New-Hebrew Piyut; Saadiah Of Fayum; Dawn Of The Spanish Era; The Spanish-Jewish Poets (I); Rashi And Alfassi; The Spanish-Jewish Poets(II); Moses Maimonides; The Diffusion Of Science; The Diffusion Of Folk-Tales; Moses Nachmanides; The Zohar And Later Mysticism; Italian Jewish Poetry; Ethical Literature; Travellers' Tales; Historians And Chroniclers; Isaac Abarbanel; The Schulchan Aruch; Amsterdam In The Seventeenth Century; and Moses Mendelssohn.
