. . . The Book You Have Been Hoping For! “The Chosen People Question Box’’ • A compilation, carefully and painstakingly made, of hundreds of questions and answers which appeared in the Question and A n s w e r Department of THE CHOSEN PEOPLE over a period of more than forty years. The late Ex-rabbi Leopold Cohn, a humble Christian and a brilliant Hebrew scholar, in his handling of these questions, drew upon the vast knowledge of Talmudic lore in which he had been steeped by a lifetime of rabbinical studies. And he wove that knowledge into this fabric of Bible explanation and interpretation. Thus the book opens new vistas of Scripture truth, and throws the searchlight of Jewish Christian scholarship on many passages whose meanings are obscure to the average Chris­ tian mind. For the first time the Christian has access to rabbinical explana­ tions of difficult Scripture pas­ sages ; but with this advantage, that these explanations are given by a Christian Jew, to whom the Old Testament types and symbols became complete only as they were unfolded and fulfilled in the New Testament. This is not a book which you will read and then set aside. You will treasure it as an invaluable book of reference, a storehouse of information, a priceless addition to your library. The pastor, the Bible students, the Sundav-school teacher, all will find this book in­ dispensable. A posthumous work of Dr. Leopold Cohn, something that will be a lasting memorial to his life and work. Beantifullv bound in silver, wit»» blue stamping; in­ dexed by subjects, and cross-in­ dexed bv Scripture. Also a table of contents. 335 pages. Price $3.00 net, postpaid. • AMERICAN BOARD OF MISSIONS TO THE JEW S, INC. 31 Throop Avenue, Brooklyn, N.Y.
