The book provides a detailed overview of the fundamental beliefs and practices of Judaism, exploring the history, philosophy, and rituals of the religion.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the doctrines of Judaism, including the belief in one God, the role of the Torah, and the concept of the chosen people. Wise examines the principles of Jewish ethics and morality, discussing topics such as justice, compassion, and the importance of social responsibility.The second part of the book delves into the duties of Judaism, exploring the various rituals and practices that are central to the religion. Wise provides a detailed analysis of the Jewish calendar, including the significance of the Sabbath, holidays, and other observances. He also discusses the role of prayer, the importance of study, and the various customs and traditions that are associated with Jewish life.Throughout the book, Wise provides historical context and draws on a wide range of sources, including the Bible, Talmud, and other Jewish texts. He also addresses common misconceptions about Judaism and provides a clear and accessible introduction to the religion for readers of all backgrounds.Overall, Judaism: Its Doctrines and Duties is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the beliefs and practices of Judaism, written by one of the most respected scholars of the religion in American history.1872. As a literary production, this little book shows: there is a religion without mysteries or miracles, rational and self-evident; this rational religion is taught in the Bible, called, in the Gentile phraseology, the Old Testament; this scriptural and rational religion is Judaism; Judaism, in its doctrines and duties, is eminently humane, universal, liberal, and progressive, in perfect harmony with modern science, criticism and philosophy, and in full sympathy with universal liberty, equality, justice and charity; therefore Judaism is the religion of the future generations, as it was the teacher of the past ones.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
