Excerpt from Hebrew Union College, and Other Addresses
In selecting the following Addresses and Discourses to appear in book form, I had two objects in view: The one is to give permanency to those memorable events in the history of the Hebrew Union College, of which it has been vouchsafed to me to be the witness, or participant, beginning with a time when the great founder of the institution, Isaac M.Wise, was still shaping its destinies and down to the period of twelve years or more during which I have served as its President. These addresses may perhaps serve to record these landmarks in the progress of the College and to some extent also in the progress of American Reform Judaism in general. The other object I had in view was to acquaint the general public with the views and aims of Reform Judaism and with the great personalities who, With their leaders staves digged the well of living waters to quench the thirst of the people and their flocks.
Other discourses in this collection may be of interest to the reader as far as they cast some sidelights on various phases of Jewish history and Jewish lore.
