The Word: The House of Israel is a historical novel written by Susan Bogert Warner and originally published in 1867. The story follows the life of a young Jewish girl named Ruth, who is orphaned at a young age and taken in by her wealthy uncle. Ruth is raised in a traditional Jewish household, but as she grows older, she becomes increasingly interested in Christianity and begins to question her faith.As Ruth struggles to reconcile her Jewish heritage with her newfound beliefs, she faces opposition from her family and community, who view her conversion as a betrayal. Despite these challenges, Ruth remains steadfast in her faith and eventually marries a Christian man.The novel explores themes of religion, identity, and family, and provides a unique perspective on the relationship between Judaism and Christianity in the 19th century. It also offers insight into the experiences of Jewish immigrants in America during this time period.Overall, The Word: The House of Israel is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a glimpse into the complex cultural and religious landscape of 19th century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
