4rmed with crosses, miserably per
ished.
The Crusaders were inspired by a
desire to rescue from Moslem rule
the home of Judaism. Yet, behold
the paradox! Just when Christians
were pouring out their blood to re-
cover the ancient capital Of the Jews,
they began fanatical and merciless
persecution Of the people who had
builded Jerusalem, consecrated its
temples, defended its affairs, and
made it the shrine of all peoples,
nations and kindred.
Who seeks the cause Of Jewish
persecution will find it in that spirit
of religious intolerance-evil Off
spring of ignorance-which for CEN
turtles sent the votaries Of Christian
creeds upon the work Of mutual
murder, torture and rapine that del
uged Europe with blood and trans
formed temples of religion into dun
geons of hate filled with the bones
of dead men.
Then came a time when the pro-
phetc rays of dawn began to illum-
inc the night of ignorance. A spirit
of tolerance spread from Christian
to Christian. But its bneficence was
not extended to the Jew. His very
prosperity aroused envy and pro-
voked jealousy. Against him preju-
dice survived, and persecution for
long time continued.
At last the sun of intelligence
burst full-orbed above the horizon.
The age of reason was upon US. AS
wild beasts flee civilization, so did
bigotry disappear before the light of
learning. Today the holy trinity;
Liberty, Justice and Charity, are
exploring the remote jungles Of
superstition and expelling from them
the monster-fear and hate. At no
distant hour the doctrine of the
equality and brotherhood Of man
will be the universal creed Of the
earth.
l repeat that in every country
where the Jew has been given the
slightest opportunity he has achieved
pre-eminent distiction.
Among the masterful statesmen Of
the last century must be included
Disraeli, an English Jew.
With the wisest judges Of earth

irons, flayed alive, impaled upon
stakes, hanged upon gibbets, burned
on pyres and crucified on crosses.
Thus has every species of atrocity
which the malignity of perdition
could inspire and cruelty of man ex-
ecute been visited upon them.
But the Jew has always conquered
adversely. Exiled from the land of
the Nile, centuries later he returned
to become the dominant force in the
government of the Pharaohs. Led
captive into Babylon by Nebuchad-
nezzar, he broke his thraldom to sit
in the councils of Cyrus. A wan
derer in Spain, he became its intellec-
tual and financial overload. In envy
his expulsion was decreed, and that
decline of the empire began which
has made Spain an object of con-
tempt in the family Of nations. A So
journer in France, he rose to emf
hence in learning and dominance in
business. Banished, the command
ing value of his genius forced his
speedy recall. A social outcast in
England, he acquired property, won
honors, and achieved distinction.
Again persecution and exile were his
fate, and yet again were his oppres-
sors forced to reverse their prescrip-
tive policy and grant to the despised
Jew the right of British citizenship.
Thus has Jewish genius broken the
shackles of prejudice and the chains
of superstition. Thus has it tri-
umphed over a race hatred and re-
ligious intolerance.
The persecution of the Jew in the
Middle Ages is the great anomaly of
history. Jewish doctors had pre-
served the ancient knowledge of
medicine and science. Jewish authors
were writing works Of philos-
ophy, poetry and history. Jewish
servants were keeping alive the love
of learning.
Suddenly in the eleventh century
Europe became aflame with religious
fanaticism, The frenzied populace
in successive tidal waves swept
across Asia, bent upon the recovery
of the Holy City, only to be broken
upon the rock Of Moslem resistance.
The madness eliminated in the
march Of thirty thousand helpless
children, who led by priests and

THE JEW
(By James A. Reed in The Hebrew
Standard).

The ideals of a nation determine
its destiny. The stream of race life,
given direction by some dominant
trait, is inevitably driven toward the
ocean of it's fate. The imperious
spirit of the Romans sent them upon
wars of conquest. Superstition and
cruelty exhausted Egyptian energy
in the creation of grotesque religious
monuments and the enslavement of
other countries. The aestheticism of
the Greeks found expression in the
majesty of Incompatible architecture
and the matchless beauty of her ar
lists marble dreams.
These ancient governments and
races have alike vanished. The
present inhabitants of the valley of
the Nile are incapable of the resist
less courage of the soldiers of
Rameses. The spirit of Thermopy-
lac no longer hovers over the land of
Greece. The creators Of the Parthe-
non and Illiad have no descendants
in Athens. The arm of the Italian is
too weak to WELD the sword Of
Caesar.
Hundreds of mighty races have
risen to power only to be exterminat-
ed or absorbed into the blood of their
conquerors. 1t has not been so with
the Jews.
Who seeks the riddles answer will
find it in that devotion to home, race
and religion which has always pos
sessed the Hebrew people.
Since the fateful hour when Jew
ish valor yielded to Roman swords
the Hebrew people have been wan
derers upon the earth. Surviving all
adversely they have multiplied in
number, increased in power and
grown in influence. The integrity
Of their race and the inviolability of
their religion have been wondrously
maintained. The record of mankind
furnishes no similar example.
In the story of his people every
son Of Judea should find inspiration
for a life of the highest nobility.
Poor indeed is he who, dwelling upon
sublime ancestral achievements and
heroic race history, feels not that
exaltation of soul which renders him
incapable of debasing his illustrious
heritage.
If ! were Jew, would teach my
fellows the proud legend of my peo-
pie. would inspire them with the
thought that in them courses a blood
rich as ever filled the veins of man.
From Moses to Aristotle stretches
a night Of thousand years, a night
OF ignorance, savagery and crime,
illumined only by the fires of truth
burning upon the affairs of the Jew.
For centuries when the world was
fettered by fear, when temples were
dedicated to obscene gods and priests
were ministers Of lust, when defile-
ment of virgins and incestuous de.
hatchery were practiced as holy mys-
teries and sanctified by the cloak of
pagan religion-the Jew taught the
inviolability Of virtue and the pre-
cepts of an exalted theology.
In an age when the Egyptians del
fled men and beasts, when the Greek
worshiped national heroes and peo-
pied the groves Of Hellas with innu-
merable spirits, when the Hindoo
The Jewish monitor. (Fort Worth-Dallas, Tex.) 191?-1921, 1919-11-07

woman fed her children to the croco-
dies Of the Ganges, when the Car
thagenian sacrificed babes to Moloch,
and all other men Frustrated them
selves before beasts of the earth or
monsters of the mind-the Jew, lift
ing his eyes toward the zenith, ex-
claimed:
"The heaves declare the glory of God,
The armament showeth His handi-
work.
Day unto day uttereth speech, and
Night unto night showeth knowl-
edge"
Thus in exalted poetry was the
sublime doctrine Of one eternal, ON
nipotent God proclaimed to the world
by Jew. Amidst universal despot-
ism the Jew founded and maintained
a democracy based upon the will of
the people.
In an age when brute force was
supreme the Jew gave to the world
code of laws which forms the basis
of modern Jurisprudence and morals.
Four thousand years before Abra-
ham Lincoln signed the emancipa-
ton in America Moses prohibited sla-
very among the Jews in Palestine.
Strike from the laws of today the
principles embraced in the Ten Com
mandments which Moses proclaimed
from Sinai and civilization will be
dead. Upon their wonderful man.
dates rest protection of life, safety of
property, sanctity of home, honesty
in dealing, inviolability of oaths, re-
spect for parents, reverence for God,
and love for our fellow men. De-
stroy single precept and the world
will lapse into barbarism.
For twenty centuries the religion,
law and morals of the Jew formed a
constellation of glory amidst the
gloom of pagan despotism and crime
During all this long era Palestine
was surrounded by hordes of semi
barbarians. The Jews struggled to
hold back the tide of savagery and
hate which encompassed their land,
Their armies were slaughtered, their
cities burned, their temples desc
Grated, their people led into captivity,
their lands reduced to a desert, white
with the skeletons Of murdered mil
lions. Yet, in spite of all, the Jew
chung to the horns of his altar, cher
ished his temple, and reverenced his
God.
The thousand year tragedy pro-
duced men of Incompatible courage,
poets who sang in measures more
majestic than the verse of Homer,
women who gained the immortal
glory of sacrifice. No military chief
tain ever surpassed the bravery of
Joshua, no patriot the valor of Judas
Maccabeus, no hero the deathless
courage of Sampson, no priest the
answering devotion of Elijah, no
sacred singer the exalted alteration
of David, no woman the sublime con-
secration to country Of Judith, wife
of Esau.
Again and again were the Hebrew
people borne into captivity. Always
they returned to their temples and to
their homes, until at last the ire
mendous power of the Roman En-
pire scattered them into all lands.
Nearly two thousand years have
run their course since the soldiers of
Titus Vespasianus battered down the
walls of the citadel of Jerusalem and
