Excerpt from The Jewish Woman in America The dreadful tribunal spared neither age nor sex, and so we find old women, like Dona Catalina Enriquez of Vera Cruz, con demmed as Jewish heretics, at the age of eighty. She died in her cell September 25, 1644. At the trial of Gabriel of Grenada, which took place in the City of Mexico in 1642, no less than thirty-four Jewish women are mentioned; several of these are described as having died in prison, others as tortured by the Inquisition. As several of the fam ily names subsequently appear in the his tory of our thirteen colonies, it may not be amiss to mention a few of the names of such victims: Dona Blanca Mendes de Rivera, Beatrice Henriquez, Clara de Sylva, Maria Gomez, Isabel Nunez and others.

Excerpt from Some Jewish Women When, sometime ago, I undertook to present an historic delineation of the women of Judaism, I was led to think that it would be better to adopt a method of treatment different from that of previous writers on the subject. After some hesita tion, therefore, I concluded to arrange my material in the form of a series of biogra phies, this arrangement being best adapted for emphasizing alike both the bright and dark sides of the lives to be pre sented.

History Of The Jews written by Heinrich Graetz and has been published by Cosimo Classics this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1893 with History categories.
A landmark work of Jewish history and a worldwide phenomenon when it was first published, this masterpiece of Jewish history was translated in multiple languages and instantly become the de facto standard in the field. German academic HEINRICH GRAETZ (1817-1891) brings a sympathetic Jewish perspective to the story of his own people, offering readers today an affectionate, passionate history, not a detached, clinical one. Backed by impeccable scholarship and originally published in German across 11 volumes between 1853 and 1875, this six-volume English-language edition was abridged under the direction of the author, and brought to American readers by the Jewish Publication Society of America in 1891. It remains an important work of the study of the Jewish religion and people to this day.

Excerpt from Devotional Exercises for the Use of Jewish Women, on Public and Domestic Occasions Alas! Faith in Thee, we have not made our light nor hope in Thee our consolation - nor love of Thee our life's high duty. Instead of cleaving unto good, we have striven after vanity and lies - our words have been false and insincere - our acts opposed to the purity of Thy godly will, and entirely have we lived, as if beyond this scene, there were no other life, no future judgment or account. We humbly pray Thee, 0 Father! To forgive us this abuse of Thy unmerited grace, to assist us in becoming worthy of the gifts which Thou dispensest to us at each succeeding dawn. Teach us to search the secret folds of our heart, to heed attentively the inward monitor which whispers to us with Thy holy voice, so that we may learn to know ourselves and recognize our unworthiness, may strive after Thee, and soon be qualified to uplift our faces to Thee, and gaze with innocent looks upon Thy resplendent light.

A groundbreaking history of how Jewish women maintained their identity and influenced social activism as they wrote themselves into American history. What does it mean to be a Jewish woman in America? In a gripping historical narrative, Pamela S. Nadell weaves together the stories of a diverse group of extraordinary people—from the colonial-era matriarch Grace Nathan and her great-granddaughter, poet Emma Lazarus, to labor organizer Bessie Hillman and the great justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, to scores of other activists, workers, wives, and mothers who helped carve out a Jewish American identity. The twin threads binding these women together, she argues, are a strong sense of self and a resolute commitment to making the world a better place. Nadell recounts how Jewish women have been at the forefront of causes for centuries, fighting for suffrage, trade unions, civil rights, and feminism, and hoisting banners for Jewish rights around the world. Informed by shared values of America’s founding and Jewish identity, these women’s lives have left deep footprints in the history of the nation they call home.

Excerpt from Jewish Holyday Stories, Modern Tales of the American Jewish Youth Judith Weil was only four years old, but on a certain Friday afternoon she felt that she was a very big girl, indeed. Her mother had always insisted that on Friday nights she should have her usual early supper and go to bed directly after the Kiddush services, which ush ered in the Sabbath, were over. But Judith's cousin Helen, who had come from college to spend her spring vacation with the family, had pleaded so hard in Judith's behalf that Mrs. Weil had smilingly promised to postpone the little girl's bedtime that evening until eight o'clock.

Excerpt from The Women of Israel We are far from asserting that this has not been attempted, and for the larger portion of the sex, accomplished before. Religion is the foundation and mainspring of every work which has been written for the use and improvement of woman. Female biographers of scripture have, we believe, often appeared though the characters of the Old Testament are so briefly and imperfectly sketched, compared to those of the New, that but little pleasure or improvement could be derived from their perusal. Yet still, with the writings of Sandford, Ellis, and Hamilton before us, each exhibiting its authoress so earnest, so eloquent in her cause, with woman's mission marked so simply, yet so forcibly, in the little volume of that name, has not woman of every race, and every creed, all sufficient to teach her her duty and herself? We would say she had yet for the women of Israel some thing still more is needed. The authors above mentioned are Christians themselves, and write for the Christian world. Edu cation and nationality compel them to believe that Christianity is the sole source of female excellence. To Christianity alone they owe their present station in the world: their influence, their equality with man, their Spiritual provision in this life, and hopes of immortality in the next. Nay more, that the value and dignity of woman s character would never have been known, but for the religion of Jesus; that pure, loving, self-deny ing doctrines, were unknown to woman she knew not even her relation to the Eternal; dared not look upon Him as her Father, Consoler, and Saviour, till the advent of Christianity. We grant that the Gentiles knew it not, till the Bible became more generally known, till the Eternal, in His infinite mercy, permitted a partial knowledge of Himself to spread over the world - alike to prepare the Gentile for that day, when we shall all know Him as He is, and to render the trial of His people's faith and constancy yet more terribly severe. We feel neither anger nor uncharitableness towards those who would thus deny to Israel those very privileges which were ours, ages before they became theirs; and which, in fact, have descended from us to them. Yet we cannot pass such assertion unanswered, lest from the very worth and popularity of those works in which it is promul gated, the young and thoughtless daughter of Israel may believe it really has foundation, and look no further than the page she reads.
