American Jewish History. He said in

The Jews have always cultivated his
tory The Bible of the Jews, which is
by far the most widely circulated book in
the world is largely a history Of the
people from it's beginnings and (if we
may use the word without paradox be-
fore. The Torah or Pentateuch ends
just before the actual beginning of the
national life under Joshua Starting with
the creation it undertakes to give the
pedigree of mankind until the sons of
Jacob are united into a coherent mass by
Moses, and then tells the history Of this
community until the death of that leader
and the rise of the Palestinians national
ity under Joshua.
We have Biblical reference to early
annalists, and we have, moreover, hints
of biographies of great men. seers and
prophets, such as Samuel, Nathan, and
Cad.
Of the Canonical books Esther may
fairly be said to be biography, not Of
the lady after whom the Jewish authori
ties CALAMITY named it, but of Mordecai,
a kind Of ancient Persian Diaraeli, whose
stake in securing or retaining office, was
vital for the interests Of himself and all
his co-religionists. The book is espe-
cally interesting for our purpose this
evening because it gives the conception
of it's writer's regarding the true office OF
history
In the chronicles of the kingdom the

by the few. Yet, be it remembered.
