ROME AND JERUSALEM.

The recent publication of Moses
Hess's Rome and Jerusalem" in an
English translation. emphasizes the
truth of the oft-repcated statement thar
the two great philosophers of the Jew
ish ma ational movement are Moses Hess
and Achad Haam. These two men
have invested it with an irresistible
intellectual appeal. In many respects
the work of Moses Hess is even more
remarkable. than that of Achad Ha'am.
Hess wrote over fifty years ago ana
even then advocated the colonization
Of Palestine. Withal. he was social
philosopher of pronounced radical type.
ut to whom the consummation of the
Jewish national hope was simply one
of the implications of the emancipa-
tion movement of mankind.
His work bears all the essential ear
marks of Biblical prophesy. His Ian
guage and style, of course, are those of
& modern man. But the vision, never
theless. is there. He foresees in the
rot distant future Il huge struggle be-
tween autocracy and freedom. And as
one of the Outcomes of this struggle.
he foresees the restoration of the Jew
ish people to nationhood. Here is a
vision which inevitably suggests that
of Isaiah and the other prophets of
old.
In the power to understand the Jew
ish soul. after Achad Ha'am and Moses
Hess. would have to be placed n non
Jew the great English novelist. George
Eliot. Her Daniel Deronda" is n
work of great force and charm hut
i; deserves to be. In order. however.
to become familiar with George Eliot's
Interpretation of Jewish natiOnalism.
1t is not necessary to read the whole
book. The Zionist organization of
America has published in brief pam
pElct number Of extracts from the
novclists' thought in her own words.
II is in the form of "A dialogue between
Aloriecai. the Jewish hero of the hook
and his companion.
Among the great exponents of the
idea, however. tine call of Leon Pins
l,er i'm his neutrality-suspicious." in
the year 1882 still rings out with re-
markable strength. That little pam
phlet will remain landmark in mod
ern Jewish history. 1t should Ike in
the library of every Jewish home.
When Pinsker died Achad Ha'am
wrote an appreciation of the man and
his work under the title of "Pinsker
and His Brochure" which has been
translated into English by Henrietta
SZold. Pinsker. as Is known. has be-
come the leader of the Lovers OF
LiOn,' whose aim was the colonization
IF Palestine. Achad Ha'am says of
PinSker: .'To many of the Lovers OF
Zion he was nothing more than man
of-affairs who stood at the head of
their organization. Only small
minority are acquainted with his very
soul which revealed itself in his re-
ma arkable book, utO-Emancipation."
