Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anglo-Jewish Memories and Other Sermons During the present month I shall, by Divine mercy, complete the threescore years and ten ordinarily allotted to man. Half a century will also shortly have elapsed since I preached my first sermon at the Consecration of the Swansea Synagogue on behalf of my revered father vt, who was prevented by illness from undertaking this duty. These anniversaries have prompted me to publish a selection of Sermons preached during a ministry extending over forty-five years - a task which has been ofttimes urged upon me, but which the burden of official duties has prevented me from accomplishing. In selecting a few of these discourses I have deemed it right to give prominence to those delivered on occasions which moved our hearts both as Englishmen and as Jews. The subject which most deeply stirred the sympathies of the house of Israel during this period was the unhappy persecution of our Russian brethren, a sore recrudescence of which was witnessed only a few years ago.
