Opis: The Message of Judaism - Joseph Morris

Excerpt from The Message of Judaism: Sermons Preached at the West London Synagogue

My first volume of sermons, The Ideal in Judaism, appeared more than thirteen years ago. In the interval only one addition has been made to the small number of Jewish homiletical works intended for English readers. I refer to Mr. Israel Abrahams and Mr. Claude Montefiore's valuable Aspects of Judaism. There would thus seem to be room for a further addition, and I have accordingly yielded to the persuasions of my friends and decided to offer the present volume to the public.

The sermons here given have necessarily been chosen from a large number of discourses. I have tried to make the selection as varied as possible, in the hope of interesting diverse readers, and of affording some justification for the title I have given to the book. I would fain hope that the following pages may not only prove helpful to some of those who are trying to live their lives in the light of duty, but serve, however inadequately, to expound the message of Judaism, to illustrate its many-sided appeal to the conscience and the soul.

I would add an expression of my gratitude to Mr. Laurie Magnus for his kindness in reading the proof sheets, and for his many valuable suggestions.
