the works of Jehoash when they will
reach the understanding of the general
public.
Jehoash is a comparatively young
man. Whatever knowledge he possesses,
and he has laid up goodly store Of it,
he did not acquire from tutors nor with
in the walls of any school. From his
early youth he was his own teacher and
guide, the Bible, the Talmud and their
innumerable commentators were his only
sources of spiritual and intellectual en-
richment during the years when the av-

common school education And yet,
between the thirteenth and sixteenth
year of his life he succeeded in acquir-

Jehoash would take up the profession of
a Rabbi for which he was fitted by his
vast erudition in all the branches OF
Jewish lore, and he was sent to the VOL
