Excerpt from The Nineteen Letters of Ben Uziel: Being a Spiritual Presentation of the Principles of Judaism
In giving to the English-reading Jewish public this English version of the maiden effort of the late great Frankfort Rabbi, Samson Raphael Hirsch, the "Nineteen letters of Ben Uziel," I am strongly conscious that I have performed a difficult task very imperfectly. The work, though limited in extent, and sketchy in proportions, is of great importance, both as regards its own intrinsic value, and its effect upon the history of Judaism. It was epoch-making in its time, powerfully influencing contemporary Jewish thought, and paving the way for the development of a mighty and imposing school in German Judaism; but its merits are not shown in their just light by a mere translation.
