The great question in tho Jewish
Church at present is, "Shall Sabbath
public worship be conducted il Hebrew
or in the language Of the country where
these religious services are held?" The
public worship Of the Jews, in all ages
and in all places, has hitherto been in
the Hebrew tongue only, but the Party
of Progress, sometimes called Young
Judea," or Modern Jews" maintain
that there is no command in tho sacred
books-,he Bible of Talmud-epjoining
the sole use Of the Hebrew as tho
language Of alteration Of God, or Of
religious instruction to the people.
They maintain, besides, that no rabbi,
or doctor Of re ,aw, or any teacher OF
repute among hem, has ever held the
doctrine that the people Of God him.
| self" were forbidden to praise Him, or
pray to Him, in any language to them
most convenient. they adduce the
writings Of their prophets, Isaiah,
Moses and jeremiah, who pointedly
warn them that God values not the
sound Of the lips, but ouly the ssnti-
men,s of the heart. The reformers also
allegs that the Jewish Church, as now
conducted, makes no converts from
other bodies, bu: has herself suffered
losses by the departure Of some of her
members to join Evangelical PROTESTANT
denominations.
