AT LAST! The Book You Have Been Hoping For! "The Chosen People Question Box" A compilation, carefully and pains­ takingly made, of hundreds of ques­ tions and answers which appeared in the Question and Answer Department of THE CHOSEN PEOPLE over a period of more than forty years. The late Ex-rabbi Leopold Cohn, a hum­ ble Christian and a brilliant Hebrew scholar, in his handling of these ques­ tions, drew upon the vast knowledge of Talmudic lore in which he had been steeped by a lifetime of rab­ binical studies. And he wove that knowledge into' this fabric of Bible explanation and interpretation. Thus the book opens new vistas of Scrip­ ture truth, and throws the search­ light of Jewish Christian scholarship pn many passages whose meanings are obscure -to the average Christian mind: - For the first time the Christian has access to rabbinical explanations of difficult Scripture passages; but with this advantage, that these explana­ tions 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 informa­ tion, a priceless addition to your li­ brary. The pastor, the Bible student, the Sunday-school teacher, all will find this book indispensable. A posthumous work of Dr. Leopold Cohn, something that will be a last­ ing memorial to his life and work. Beautifully bound in silver, with blue stamping; indexed by ¿subjects, and cross-indexed by Scripture. Also a table of contents, 825 pages, original­ ly produced to sell for $ 2.00 a copy, the price has now been reduced to ' $ 1.00 in response to hundreds of pleadings.
