Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Orthodoxy and Religious Observance: A Sermon Preached at the New West End Synagogue, St. Petersburgh Place, London, W., On the First Day of New Year, 5671
Few of us will doubt that the good way is the middle way that lies between extremes; but a leader of men can find no less thankful task than the endeavour to lead men on that middle way. He who makes that task his own, bares himself to fire from both extremes, to misunderstanding and mis representation. It is, however, the task to which, be the consequences what they may, I feel in duty bound to set myself now, and I ask you to bear with me for what is, I feel sure, our common hepe. Ask for the old paths where is the good way Take your bearings anew. That was in effect the advice the prophet gave when the advance of the armies of Babylon threatened the Temple, the State and the national existence of the Jewish people.
