Jadt (Book JoA JawA

The crying need for a book like this is the

only reason for its existence:

IT IS DEDICATED
to the millions of Jews of past and present

whose love for peace and goodness of life

is a conclusive rebuttal to the flood of false

accusations poured upon them.

As I sat down to arrange this little Work,

I thought I felt something

resting upon my shoulder;

And, fearing for a moment it might

be a 'chip';

I quickly turned my head

But breathed easily and smiled

When I beheld—an olive branch.

Not all has been said

That could have been said,

Within the folds of these pages;

But enough has been said

To put into your head

The wisdom of ages and sages.

DON’T READ THIS
"Merely having an open mind is nothing ; The

object of opening the mind , as of opening the

mouth is to shut it on something solid”,
gkc

Please do not read this if you are unwilling

to shut your mind on something solid—if you

are intellectually dishonest—if you are afraid

of the force of truth as a coward is afraid of

physical force—if you are a wishful thinker-

one who doesn’t wish to think, but thinks as

he wishes.

When discussing the actions of our

fellowman, the guiding question is

not: ‘WHAT did he do’? but rather:

‘In doing it, did he act like a human

being

—

rationally? Did he use his

head for something more than a cot-

ter-pin to prevent it from slipping

through his collar? The definition in

the margin is inadequate, as you may

see; yet it does describe a lunatic

with fair accuracy. Man is more than just a

two-legged animal without feathers; he has

a thinking brain, and a personality that lets

you know it is he who is speak-
ing to you, and not someone

else. Beasts are slaves to touch

and taste; men and women are
slaves to Truth; but when they

refuse to free themselves by

slavery to Truth, they automat-

ically become slaves to lie, and

to its multiple ‘daughters’.

“MAN IS A

TWO-LEGGED

ANIMAL

WITHOUT

FEATHERS”

May I offer, that in these United States the
number of intellectually honest Jews is not

‘legion’ but millions? It is to such Jews of

— Page 3 —



upright mind and heart, that the

HAVF TFWS observations in this
pamphlet as well

nnnn Turninn as in those
that wil1 COme later (G°d

GOOD MINDS willing), are presented. The
common

disinclination of non-Jews to bestow

compliments upon the Jewish character, is

offset by the common admission of non-Jews,

even if grudgingly given at times, that
Jews

as a Group are endowed with a high degree

of mental acumen. Now if this be true it

would seem that Jewish men and women

should guard carefully against being led
by

the nose (not a pun) rather than by the
head.

People led by the nose help to swell the ranks

of the prejudiced of this earth:
they face

fancies, whereas people of intelligence face

facts, and are not like the good philan-

thropic Jewish gentleman who dis-

RFTiniflM missed the issue
of Religion by ob-

ntiLlulUll
serving humorously to his Catholic

IN DRUG- friend: “Stanley;
if Religion was

Lnnvc any good they
would keep it in the

MUHt!) drug-stores”.

No, that is not the last word at all;

drug-stores load their shelves with everything

good for the broken body and for the un-

broken one. Religion is the ‘drug-store of

the spirit. Now facts are at hand bearing on

this most important and intriguing phase of

life—Religion; will you al least read them.

Do you pray?

ADONAI

ECHOD

Perhaps you have already heard

the story of the good farmer who

had never yet seen a circus. When

his sons returned and told him, a-

mong other things, about the great

giraffe they had seen in the

circus zoo, the gentleman re-

mained stubbornly incredulous:

“Nope”, he said confidently, “I

don’t believe it”. Next day

when the farmer accompanied

his boys to the circus they

marched him right to the gi-

raffe’s paddock, and pointing

triumphantly, they said: “There y’are Pop;

that’s the giraffe; do you believe it now?

After standing there for a half minute in

silence staring at the animal the good farmer

shook his head with finalitv and almost

shouted: “Nope; don’t believe it; they ain’t

no sech animal”; and walked away.

None so blind as those who refuse to look;

but blindest are those who stubbornly hold

that they do not see what the whole world

sees—that there is a God. A little boy will
tell them without sweating his brow about it

that the man who made that aircraft-carrier

was ‘mighty’ smart; but the ‘grown-up’ will

insist nobody made it. Shades of Aristotle

and Ghosts of our Jewish Forefathers! On

Tuesday night the place was an empty dry-

dock; but on Wednesday morning behold

—

an aircraft-carrier all ready for launching,

arrived overnight faster than a mushroom!

— Page 5 —



and nobody made it, mind you; it just ‘wuz’,

This is what one hears from men so heavily

freighted with ‘Degrees’ they can hardly

walk: they say soothingly that the universe,

the world, just ‘wuz-nobody made it. They

take pity on those who cannot ‘see’ what is

‘so evident’, ‘so obvious’; they pity us for not

having the horse sense to see it. It is these

men who might tell you that because the sun

is red in the morning we may have a cloudy

or stormy day; and who in other matters

too will reason from cause to effect and from

effect to cause all the day long like their

normal fellowmen; but when they are asked

who made the world and us, their brain sud-

denly becomes atrophied:

“To dodge the Actual nobody so smart”

“To shun the obvious their native art”

“Their ostrich mind ... all mixtures

can contain;

“Save what is Actual, Evident and Plain”

Do you ever ask God

for Understanding , as

King David did?

‘DEITY'DUCKERS’

A ‘Deity-ducker’ is one who ‘ducks’ when-

ever he happens to see the
‘Brain-work of

God in the multiplication table, the <nriTV
Beauty of God in a sunset, or the Util

1"

Spirit of God in a child—and thinks UTirifFR'
God doesn’t see him.

UUUkLh

Such men SAY there is no God, often be-

cause they want what they want when they

want it: because God gets in their way; or,

they may assert cocksurely, as they Sljrvey

you over their nose: “we do not know wheth-

er there is a God”: (‘ignoramus’, m latrn . ;
in english too.) Some types of ‘Deity-duckers

will wildly deny the existence of a God be-

cause they see suffering in the world
failing

to perceive that their ‘reasoning
cuts both

ways. If they deny God’s existence
because

of the evil; they should be good
enough to

put Him back into existence when they see

the good!

TAILOR-SHOP CONGRESS

In my travels it is my good fortune to meet

good Jews of various vintages of religion and

conviction. Lipsky whom I met lately was

a man who gave promise of being religious-

minded.

“Father, the the Jewish People

are Chosen People of God”, he said

proudly, after we had chatted for a

while in his dingy tailor-shop.

“Why of course they are, Sam”, I

admitted; “They were chosen for

MY

FRIEND

SAM

— Page 7 —



the special Work of bringing the knowledge

of One God to the nations of the world”.

Sam’s next observation almost loosened

me from my chair:

“Well Father”, he mused, “I .wonder . . .

I don’t believe there is a God, after all”.

“But Sam”, I objected, “a Godless Jew is

a misnomer; you should believe in God:

the Torah speaks of Him on every page”.

Lipsky’s counter to this was almost as

shocking to me as his apparent denial of God.

“Maybe so, Father, but I believe the Torah

was gotten together by some clever, poetic

Jews who wanted to glorify the Jewish Peo-

ple; I don’t believe it was written by God”.

After I had gulped imperceptibly, I sat

for a moment appaled at the brazenness of

the assertion, at its rank inconsistency, and

at the rotary motion of Sam’s mental ma-

chinery. Then I said as calmly as I could:

“Sam, you will excuse me if I say that

you seem to be confused. A few minutes
ago you announced that the Jews were the

Chosen People of God, and I agreed. Next

you all but denied the existence of the very

God who ‘Chose’ them; and now you pro-

nounce insanity on your Jewish Forefathers

by asserting that the Torah was merely the

work of clever Jews. Sam, take your choice:

—if the Torah was given by God, the Jewish

People were Chosen by God; but if as you

say, the Torah was written by scheming

Jews, then our People were ‘chosen’ by

scheming Jews”.

Lipsky changed the subject; why?

— Page 8 —



A D O N A I

It is not for me to judge poor Sam and the

disconcertingly large number like him; 1

have compassion on them because they
have

been dulled by environment, or duped
by

fellow-Jews who bluntly deny but cannot

prove. To the many Jews who

strongly suspect there is no

God, life resolves into a ques-

tion mark as tall as the Empire

State Building. For centuries

they thought their ancestors

were Jews till they met the

modern Jewish ‘prophet’ who

told them their ancestors were not Jews but

monkeys;—and they believed it and even de-
fended it; as if such lineage brought lustre

to the family name!

It is because most Jews are honest-

minded, and are prepared to be un-

deceived, and reassured, that I offer

these observations; lest their lives

remain perpetually miserable,

through doubt.

When a man squats on a piece of unclaimed

land the Law allows him to stay there until

another proves beyond all rea-

sonable doubt that the land is

his: possession is nine-tenths

of the Law”. The squatter is

not evicted merely because

someone SAYS he owns the
land; but the dispute is taken

to court and judged. Sincere

Jews! take all these deniers

of God to court as you would bring to judge-

ment one who has contested your rights to

— Page 9 —

BIRD IN

HAND



a property you had owned from time im-

memorial. Remember—the whole Jewish

People has always known of the existence of

God and His Fatherhood of men; and the

Jewish People being "in possession'' of this

truth, they have squatters rights, so to speak,

and cannot be deprived of them by an in-

dividual’s ‘say-so’, no matter how many bril-

liant degrees he may wave to dazzle them.

These deniers who shout: ‘They’re all out of

step but us’, have just got to get in step, the

burden of proof weighs on them, not on us.

Yet, though they have been taken to court a

‘million times’, they have been consistently

unable io prove there is no God: they only

consistently continue to SAY so—because
God gets in their way: Keep them away

from your children; and your children a-

way from ihem.

A pious Rabbi, sitting among his
\ n n disciples one day, suddenly asked:

“Why, Rab, every child knows that God

is everywhere, and that His glory fills the

universe”.

The good Rabbi however, would not ac-

cept this answer, but said profoundly:

“GOD IS TO BE FOUND WHEREVER
HE IS ADMITTED”.

IF YOU DON’T GET HEADACHES. TRY THIS

INSTEAD OF YOUR CROSS-WORD PUZZLE

To know that a baseball heads for the out-

field fence because it was swatted by a

player, you don’t have to be a philosopher;

and the back-lot sprouting young ‘Dizzy

Dean’ is aware that a moving baseball must

be put into motion: it’ll never move itself

to first base to put a man out.

Every plain, ordinary un-degreed

man and woman has learned also,

that the petunias in the window-box

sprouted from a tiny seed because

they got nourishment from soil, wa-

ter air and sunshine: that is, the

seeds didn’t change themselves, but

were changed by things outside

themselves.

PEOPLE

This illustrates the following principle:—

“EVERYTHING THAT MOVES IS

MOVED BY SOMETHING ELSE

EVERYTHING THAT CHANGES IS

CHANGED BY SOMETHING ELSE

and since,

Each and every thing is moved or

changed by another

—

All of them together must be moved

or changed by another force which

is outside of them all:

— Page 11 —



Like a train of passenger cars,

each pulling the car in back

of it, but all of them being

pulled by a locomotive.

Or, as all the billiard-balls on

a table are knocked into a

pocket by one expert shot.

•

The whole world, therefore must have gotten
its

start from something OUTSIDE of it and

independent of it: and that 'something', that

Starter, we call the Creator, GOD.

HOLD TO

COMMON

SENSE

However, though the man who

wishes to say that the world just

‘wuz’, will not be thrown into jail

for it; he will have to maintain the

ridiculous; that—no chicken ever

laid an egg: the eggs just ‘wuz’;

baseballs make home-runs without

into a game: autos run without

wagons move without horses: pies

are baked without heat: and nobody ever

had parents. But common sense tells us that

God lives; that He has created you and me

and all you see; and that He is—our Father.

Hold to common sense.

LETTER TO A JEWISH COLUMNIST

June 7, 1940

Mr. ( . . . .).

The Sentinel,

Chicago, Illinois

Dear Mr.

Many a time I have been prompted

to write to you when reading your
column

in the “Sentinel”, but after
reconsidering, I

dismissed the urge.

However, your column of May 30 so

moved me that I have just got to say some-

thing. Firstly, I pity poor M. R. T. for
his

tremblings; he is a sincere man; but why

didn’t he go to his Rabbi instead of going
to

you for advice? Isn’t it a severe indictment

against a Rabbi that one of his own congre-

gation does not hold him able to quiet his

doubts concerning God?

Secondly: Why should you go to a

Christian clergyman for the most of your

advice to M. R. T.? Your previous columns

prove that you might have done much better

than he. Assuredly Jewish history is cram-

med with much more consoling advice than

the nonsense dished out by this unchristian

Christian clergy-man. Too bad about him,

that he wonders whether there is a personal

God! His remedy for the present calami-

tous condition of the world is pure poison;

a lot of stuff calculated rather to launch

poor, discouraged M. R. T. and his like into

the jaws of despair. M. R. T. and all other

doubters who have read your column are, I

believe, worse off for having read it. What

encouragement is there for a layman who

hears his minister saying that “intellectual

— Page 13 —



integrity” no longer permits him to preach

his sermon entitled “Prayer can change all

things”. Do you, Mr. feel encour-

aged by the halting advice of this clergyman?

The ‘Christian’ minister of whom you speak
has no longer any right to represent God

for the laity.

Isn’t it just common sense that if God

could change things at any other time in the

history of the world (as He did) He can still

change them and always will be able to. One

would think that the existence of your clergy-

man’s God is dependent upon what he con-

siders an answer to his prayers for brother-

hood. God answers prayers in the light of

His own wisdom. He refused to stop several

‘Hitlers’ of the Old Testament days until His

chosen people besought Him with prayer and

penance.

I just wonder whether this clergyman

is ready to say that none of his prayers have

brought any spirit of brotherhood into this

world. How pitifully weak and helpless he
sounds—a clergyman—reputed leader of his
flock. I dare to say that many of his parish-

ioners could have solved the problem better

than he. He says he is not going to “take

down the banner of his faith and surrender

to . . . airplanes .... tanks”; but alas, as

far as he is concerned that banner already

lies in rags at his feet. His doctrine is mere

humanism; he has walked out on God. Let

me repeat what has been heard many times,

that the apparent prevalence of sin in the

world no more puts God out of existence or

reduces His power, than might the prevalence

of virtue put Him into existence or increase

His power. God is prior to and utterly in-

— Page 14 —



dependent of human virtue or vice. Your

clergyman’s solution of the present
world

calamity refutes itself. He says “in ourselves

is divine essence”. What trash!!! In one

mouthful he points the finger of accusation

at men who, with mechanized power, have

overrun countries, and in the next mouthful,

he again tells men (made of the same mud as

the Germans) that they can establish in
the

world justice and compassion and brother-

hood. All men are alike in potential virtue

and vice; and what a European does today,

an American may do tomorrow. Now no

man can give what he does not possess. Man

himself unaided can reach no higher than

man. Just why God permts the present dis-

rupted condition of the world is a matter that

doesn’t have to be discussed now. The first

remedy, however, for existing evils and mis-

fortunes is that of crying to God as to a

Father who loves us; and only second in im-

portance come the efforts of men.

Would to God that such men as your

‘Christian’ minister never got into print!

They do not seem to have even the perspi-

cacity of a child; for a child will run to it’s

father and cling to him in danger, but your

so called clergyman runs away from his

Father. Will it help you, Mr. (....), and

any others, to know that all Catholic priests

have in these trying times increased their

confidence in God as a Father? Let me state

it as a fact that there is none of this wavering

and trembling and fearfulness and doubting

among Catholic clergymen as you say is to

be found among many of the Jewish and

Christian clergymen. I believe such know-

ledge as this is the tonic that you should

— Page 15 —



offer in your column to those who are suffer-

ing the tortures of doubt. I wish to put

myself at your service with the offer that

you may refer to me anyone who comes to

you in the state of doubt in the future. I

shall be glad to help him as much as I can.

I close with compliments to you for

the many good things you have said in your

column in the past and wish you success in

the future.

Yours cordially,

Rev. Arthur B. Klyber, C. Ss. R.

Qod is immovable;

Let your prayers be likewise.

RESURRECTION

‘DEBUNKED'JERUSALEM URIBE

19 Nisan
— — Jewish Year 3760

RESURRECTION OF JESHDA

CLAIMED RY HIS DISCIPLES

BOM DISAPPEARS FROM 10MB

SEARCH BEGUN FOR B001

Jerusalem, Palestine; 19 Nisan:—-

The Resurrection of Jeshuah the

Nazarene, commonly believed to

have risen alive from the tomb m
Gethsemane, never occured. Re-

turning tomb guards testify that the

body was stolen while they were

asleep. The report given out by

the Disciples of Jeshua was based

on a prophecy he made while yet

alive that he would rise from the

grave on the third day. Search is

being made for the body of the

‘deceiver’; and when it has been

found steps will be taken to bring

to judgement those Disciples who

were directly involved in the pro-

fanation of the tomb of Jeshua the

Nazarene. The Ban has been pro-

nounced upon him and all his fol-

lowers: they and all who associated

with them are to be regarded as

Minim.

— Page 19 —



SUPPOSING—a headline and news item
like this had appeared on the Monday after

the Resurrection of Jesus, would it have been

believed? Yes;—by any, who had persistent-

ly shut their eyes to the pure Jewish holi-

ness which Jeshua exhibited throughout his

preaching career in Palestine and bordering

lands: it is a FACT that some began such

a whispering campaign, after instructing the

guards at the Tomb to lie about the dis-

appearance of the body, using shekels to

allay any scruples the guards might have

had.

INVESTIGATION—of the claim that Jesus

rose from the dead would have been a simple

matter; just as, now it would be easy to

verify the Pearl Harbor attack. History re-

veals that the very closest and dearest of

the Disciples of Jeshua became the shrewdest

skeptics in the affair. Sharpest among these

seems to have been Didymus (Thomas), who

refused to believe his fellow-Apostle Peter

when he announced to him that all the other

Apostles had seen Jeshuah alive again, had

talked with him, had eaten with him. On

this important matter Didymus would not

believe even his closest friends: he believed

only when he saw Jeshuah with his own

eyes and touched his wounds with his own

hands; and only then did he call him “My

Master AND My GOD". Shrewdness was
evidently a characteristic of our People then

as now: nothing was taken for granted.

That the theft of the body was possible, it

is easy to concede: but the DECEPTION, of

thousands of good Jews into believing in a

resurrection that never happened is

morally impossible. Most Jews have

heard of Sabbatai Zevi, the false

Messiah of Ismir (17th century) who

ended by denying even his Jewish

beliefs. Despite his enthusiastic and

tremendous following, he never

dared to maintain he had died and risen

again; and even if he ever did toy with

the idea he knew that a lie of such propor-

tions would have been blasted to pieces at

once. Now if the name of this Pretender is a
memory at all, it must be an ugly one indeed,

whereas Jeshuah the Nazarene is blessed in

every nation of the world—and, blessed as
the risen Messiah: how account for this?

‘WOULD-BE’

MESSIAH

May I repeat that I am speaking here to

the Jew who has an honest mind and a good

will; and who is ready, like a good lawyer

to stop awhile to ponder the other side of the

affair. Of the guards of the tomb

in which Jeshuah was buried, a good

Jewish Lawyer would ask at once:

“How can you be sure that the body

of Jeshuah was stolen? You were

asleep, and when you awoke, the

body was not there: that is the most

you can claim. In fact you cannot even deny

that Jeshuah came out of the tomb himself

alive. Your evidence concerning a Man

MOISHA BEGEL HAS A DREAM

A ‘Beth-Din’ (Jewish Religious Court—to

you) sat one day in a psychopathic
hospital

to pronounce upon certain ancient
Jewish

Writings known commonly as Gospels .

After listening attentively to the

reading of these histories, as well

as to other Jewish writings of today

concerning them, they called into

their presence successively, a fanatic,

a lunatic, and a criminal, for an

expression of opinion.

Enter, the fanatic; a morose, ‘righteous’,

unreasoning theorist, who began at once to

sell the Court a homespun religion. Being

interrupted however to be

asked what he thought of the

New Testament, his face pur-

pled as he waved his hands

wildly and yelled: “All a gi-

gantic fake, just like the Old

Testament; and if I had my
way I’d burn up every copy

of the Old and New Testaments
I could lay my hands on. Furthermore he

screamed over his shoulder as he was being

pushed firmly toward the door, “I’d have

every Jew and Catholic killed or kicked out

of the country”.

As the Judges resumed their seats within

the quiet of the office, mopping their C9I-

lective brows, they concluded after a brief

huddle, that surely Jews of this type could

never have written these Gospels which have

been held in highest honor by all the Goyim

(Nations) for nearly two thousand years:—

and the same was entered in the Minutes.

MOISHA

BEGEL’S

DREAM



When the Secretary again pressed

MflISHA the call-button, a
couple of white-

Inn^r coated guards ushered in a
balmy -

B £ G E L looking individual whom the records

described as “committed for lunacy .

As he stood there displaying a silly grin he

was asked what he thought of the Jewish

Writings called the Gospels. Upon this, his

face becoming even ‘balmier’ he
declaimed

in gracious tone and with profound
bow.

“Gentlemen; blessed indeed are the eyes

that see what you see: your correspondent

is none other than the great St. Matthew

himself”.

“Pleased to meet you, Levi”, replied the

amused interlocutor rising and bowing in
re-

turn; and amid the suppressed laughter
of

the Court he directed the guards to escort
St.

Matthew’ back to his private apartment.

The Secretary rang for the third visitor

and then joined the Court in another huddle

which resulted in a conclusion similar to that

of the first. At a knock on the door he
ac-

celerated his brief entry into the
Minutes,

and he called: “Come in.” The Judges lifted

their eyebrows at the clever-looking, well-

tailored gentleman who now stood before

them, handcuffed to his guard: ‘could
such

a one have written these Books?’
“Friend,

did you ever read or hear about the
Writings

of one Levi the Tax-collector?”, the
President

asked him expectantly. “Who in . . is he?

growled the prisoner suspiciously. St.
Mat-

thew”, he was told. “O him; yeah,
think I

heard sump’n about him when I wuz a kid;

guy who says yuh can’t kill or steal
or

— Page 26 —



sump
,

n: can’t be bothered; ast me sump’n

easy will yuh?”

This was enough: the Judges slid back in-

to their seats feeling flustered and frustrated,

while the President signalled the guard to

return the yegg to his cell. As the criminal’s

back disappeared behind the closing door, the

Court closed in for a third huddle out of

which came the agreement that Jews of this

prisoner’s like could never have written a

Book that condemned safe-crackers, mur-

derers and adulterers to hell: and this too

was written into the Minutes.

One of the Judges then arose and proposed

a resolution which sounded as follows when

read back to the Court by the Secretary:

“The Beth Din hereby voices its dis-

pleasure and indignation at those un-

worthy Children of Israel who be-
smirch the Jewish character by their

utterly unfounded assertions that the

dignified Jewish Histories called

“Gospels”, were composed by Jewish

fanatics, lunatics, criminals, or liars”.

Hear, O Israel, the Lord, thy God,

now calleth thee.

TALMUD TAKES THE WITNESS
STAND

The Talmud states that—

1. Jesus claimed to be God.

2. The Disciples of Jesus healed

miraculously.

3. Jesus was ‘hung’ (crucified)

after being judged by the

Sanhedrin, thus

TALMUD

IN THE

GOSPELS

AGREEING WITH THE GOSPELS

The Talmud forbids Jews to read

the Gospels, thus—

ADMITTING THAT THE GOSPELS

EXISTED

The Talmud does not deny that—

1. The Jewish Writings called Gospels were

written by the Jews whose names they

bear.

2. The miracles of Jeshuah really occurred,

but only calls them magic.

3. Jeshuah is of the Family of David.

4. Jeshuah called Himself the Son of God.

THE KNOCKOUT

When a boxer fails to bring home his

strongest wallop in a ringfight, it
becomes

evident that he hasn’t any strongest

wallop. Now the Jews were pre-

KNOCKOUT sent when the events told in the

m (11H Gospels happened; and these events
° meant to them the possible under-

mining of the Jewish Religion. Con-

sequently their strongest blow

against this new ‘Movement’

would have been to state ab-

solutely, and publish the state-

ment, that the Gospels were

fables. Since they did not do

so, it becomes clear that they

could not. The Gospels there-

fore, from this viewpoint not

only existed, but are true

histories.

POOR FELLOW—HE NEVER
HAD NO GRANDPA

“Seeing is believing”, crowed Mr. Schwartz,

as though he had won the debate before it

had begun; “I believe only what I can see

and touch; I believe in profits not Prophets”.

“Then you never had a great-

grandfather?” queried the Rabbi.

“Nonsense”, cried Schwartz, get-

ting red in the face.

“Not at all”, answered the Rabbi calmly,

“you believe only what you can see and

touch; but you never saw or touched your

great-Grandfather; therefore you never had

any—am I right?” Mr. Schwartz’s mouth
opened to reply, but closed again, as the

good Rabbi continued: “And since your great-

Grandfather never existed, neither do you;

so I guess I only imagine that you’re stand-

ing in front of me now”.

“Allright, okay, so I believe I had a great-

Grandfather, so what?” replied Schwartz.

The Rabbi smiled as he lit a cigarette for

himself; after lighting one for Schwartz:

“Plenty of ‘so what’; no matter who you

are you have to guide nearly all the experi-

ences of your life by facts or principles you

never saw or touched or even hope to see

or touch”.

“Why, Barnie”, continued the Rabbi, “you

can’t even prove absolutely that Mrs.

Schwartz is your Mother; you can only

take her word for it, or the word of other

There is more than one way of

when a man says, after something has

that Caesar lived—that Caesar
fought

battles—and that this was a fairly
accurate

copy of the original History
written by him-

self somewhere between 100 B.
C. to 44 B. C.

Nevertheless, competent scholars Jews
and

non-Jews will tell you that although
the

oldest copy of the Latin Classics
does not

reach back beyond the fifth century,
the old-

est copy of the Jewish
Writings called the

Gospels dates back to the 2nd century
of this

era Let me ask the honest-minded
Jew

what would be his judgement of a
man who

without any investigation, but just on
a say-

so’, should decide that Caesar
never wrote

“Gallic Wars” at all? Let me ask him also,

what should be his opinion of the
man who

condemns the Jewish Gospels in the
same

offhand manner?

The plain man’s almost final an-

sented to him some facts and figures regard-

ing these Jewish Writings, and had asked

whether he believed the truth of what they

said; he answered, with a characteristic

shrug of shoulders and voice:

"If four hundred million people believe they
are

true , who am I to deny? If the four hundred mil-

lion are wrong/ then somebody's crazy"! Let s re-

duce it to two hundred million adults: It is still

When Temple Service was over,

Moisha Begel button-holed his Rab-

bi and began to release a number of

questions.

“Rabbi”, he asked, “did you say

in your sermon that Jesus did not

work any miracles, but that it was

all magic”?

“Yes”, was the Rabbi’s reply.

“And did you say too that Jesus did not

rise from the grave but that his body was

stolen by some of his eleven Jewish Fol-

lowers”?

“Yes Moisha, I did”, again replied the

Rabbi.

“And did you say too that the dozen or

so Jewish Apostles of Jesus ‘humbugged’

nearly eight-thousand Jerusalem Jews into

believing that Jesus had really worked mir-

acles and had really appeared alive after his

number of Members of the

“Why yes, that is exactly what I
said;

what’s on your mind”?

“Hmm . . mmm” was Moisha's enigmatic

observation as he lowered his
head ana

stroked his chin thoughtfully.

he

then continued, cocking his
head and look-

ing up; “you don’t mind I

“Not at all Moisha, go ahead”.

“Well you are a Jew and I am a Jew:

Moisha I could

THE TRUTH
1.

No set of histories ever written has born

the microscopic investigation which the

Gospels have had to bear.

Still—They have been believed by, and

have guided the lives of billions

of men and women for nineteen
centuries:

—They are believed today, and to-
day guide the lives of nearly

three and a half millions distri-

buted through every nation in

the world.

TROTH

AND CON-

SEQUENCES

2.

Included in the billions who accepted these

histories as true, there have been and are,

multitudes of men and women of every
walk of life; of every age and calling:

—

Scientists—Teachers—Lawyers—Doctors —
Psychiatrists—Admirals—Generals,— and
the plain man like you and me.

3. In the first four centuries alone of the

Christian Era, great numbers, probably

even millions laid down their lives rather

than deny the truth of these Histories.

4. A comparison of the facts of the Gospels
with other true histories of that period,

and with results of excavations made in

Jerusalem and environs, establishes with

certainty that the Writers of the Gospels

were eyewitnesses of the things they tell.

There exists no evidence to prove they

were mistaken; but all the evidence at

hand shows they had a most detailed

knowledge of the Religious, Social and Po-

litical conditions of their time.

Page 35



“The foolishness of some might
be worded

thus* “Do not believe in the
Resurrection

even though it be eye-witnessed
by five his-

torical documents, and has been
believed for

twenty centuries; but hold
to the fact th

Jesus has not risen, even
though there are

no documents to prove this .

IMPOSSIBLE

CONCLUSIONS

THE CONSEQUENCES

-if the Gospels are
NOT true histories-

the impossible happens

—nineteen centuries of people could not pro-
duce even one detective clever

enough

to catch up with these untruths.

—all of them—even the learned,
the

astutely intelligent, were simple-

tons, so utterly
gullible as to

swallow whole this tremendous

‘lie\ Many of these millions

laid down their lives for
that

‘lie’.

-if there is not brains enough
in all these

billions to unmask the supposed lie,
then

neither is there brains
enough in the

rest of men to prove that the
Gospels

are a lie.

-if as a Jew, I throw out the
Gospels as

‘Fables’, without investigation,
or select

for belief only the passages
I want, 1

must do the same to the Talmud
and

Torah, and to the Writings
of Juda

Halevi, Rashi. and Ben Maimon,
since

the historicity of all of
them is tested

by the same process of
reasoning.

Page 36



For this you don't need a High-School
Diploma

Only God is able to raise the

dead to life

Jesus said he was God

Jesus said he would raise him-

self from the dead fj £
Jesus did rise from the dead

Jesus is God.

But for this , perhaps you should
have graduated.

Sincere Jewish Inquirer:

—

“I have some questions”:

1. “Does it follow necessarily

that Jesus is God just be-

cause he rose from the

dead? Others too, were

brought back from the

grave; were they also

God? Might not God the Father have

raised up Jesus from the grave, leaving

him still a great Prophet, though not a

God?”

2. “Might not Jesus have only imagined he

was God?”

And the Reply:

—

1. Even if God had raised Jesus, instead of

Jesus’ having raised himself

—

Page 37



God, by such a miracle must have

placed the seal of approval

on Jesus

on his claims

on his deeds.

And since Jesus claimed he was God

and died for that claim-

then God, by raising him from

the dead must also have given

approval to that claim.

Consequently—Even if we say that God

the Father raised Jesus from the dead,

and that Jesus did not raise himself—

Jesus is God.

2 If God had raised up from the dead
a

Jesus who only IMAGINED he was God

—Then, God would have given public

approval

—

to a man mentally unbalanced

to a man who did not know

Srbe he was!

—Such an act of God is plainly impos-

sible unless we have a decidedly crass

idea 'of God’s nature:

God cannot approve a mentally
unbalanced

man as a Prophet;

—

;

Since He cannot. He did not;

and since He did not;

Therefore when Jesus said he

was God, he was not deceived,

HE WAS GOD.

THE ACID TEST

IN THOSE DAYS—a certain Pharisee
named GAMALIEL, a Teacher of the Law

respected by the people, stood up

in the Sanhedrin (Supreme Court

of the Jews) and ordered that the

Disciples then on trial for preaching

in the Name of Jeshuah, be put out-

side for the moment. And he said

to Sanhedrin: “Men of Israel, take

care what you are about to do to

these men. For, sometime ago there

rose up Theodas claiming to be

somebody, and a number of men, about four

hundred joined him; but he was slain, and

all his followers were dispersed, and he was

brought to nothing. And after him rose up

Judas the Galilean . . and drew some people

after him: he too perished, and all his

followers were scattered abroad. SO NOW
I SAY TO YOU, keep away from these men
and let them alone; for, ....

''If this plan or work is of men—

it will be overthrown”;

It has not been overthrown.

"But if it is of God , you will

not be able to over throw it”:

Not even armies have been able

to overthrow it.

"Else perhaps you find yourselves

fighting even against God”—

IT IS OF GOD.

"And they agreed with him"
This must be noted.

MY JEWISH FRIEND

I’m sure you will agree that the

Histories which tell of the Jew

who was Great enough to change

the reckoning of the calendar from

the Roman ‘A. U. C.’ to the Modern

‘A. D.’, ought to give pause to

every sincere Jew. At the very

least, the facts offered in this pam-

phlet make it clear that one may

not lightly brush aside these

Jewish Writings as fiction without

stultifying himself. ‘Foolish’, would

not adequately describe the mind

that should throw the Declaration

of Independence into the trash-

basket merely because someone said

it was invented fifty years ago. The

Declaration of Independence is a

human document: the Gospels have

consistently claimed to be Divine

(f&wA and (pAaisL&ianJti&m
At the risk of nettling my good Protestant

Jewish friends, I append to this pamphlet

some considerations which for a long

time I have considered important to

the sincere Jew searching for Truth.

“It behooveth to obey God rather

than men”; one can only say what

one knows and believes to be his-

toric truth, without accusing of in-

sincerity the individuals who differ with him.

JEWS AND

PROTES-

TANTISM

A Jew who ponders becoming a Protes-
tant may indeed be, and most of the time

is, sincere in his intentions, though perhaps

not thoroughly informed. He may best clar-

ify the issue by asking the questions:

1. Which of the 200 and more Sects of

Protestantism should I have joined

had I lived in the third, fifth, tenth,

or fourteenth century?

2. Why do I now intend to join this Sect
in preference to any and all of the

others?

The reply to the first question would not be

long in forthcoming:

“I could not of course have become a

Protestant at all in those early centuries,

since Protestantism, like its Originator,

was not born until the sixteenth century.

The reply to the second question is this:

“If I as a Jew, intend to join One of the

Sects in preference to any and all

the others

—

Page 43



/ must be prepared, to demonstrate:-

JEWS AND

PROTES-

TANTISM

—that beginning with the Apos-

tles the billions of
Christians

of the first fifteen centuries
had

the wrong Christianity, since

they believed differently
from

all the Protestant Sects.

/ must be prepared to
demonstrate:—

—that the Segment of Protestantism
which

I am about to adopt IS the Christianity

that Jesus gave to the Apostles:
that is

/ must prove that Jesus and
the

Apostles were Protestants

—And—if, for example, I choose the Seg-
ment known as Methodists, I must P^^ve

that Jesus and the Apostles were
Meth-

odists.

When that style of Christianity put in
its

telltale belated appearance in
the sixteenth

century, it showed the world a
kingdom di-

vided against itself; divided
first, in the

principles of disunity upon which it
de-

pended: and eventually, in the
actual dis-

unity visible today. As a consequence
we

have among us today more than two
hundred

vintages of Protestantism, each
contradict-

ing the other in its
teachings, while admit-

ting that the Others are just as
much God s

Religion as Itself.

To the large groups of sincere
people

searching for Truth this state of
affairs _is

a permanent scandal. The
astutely mquir-

ing Jew should readily perceive that

Page 44



Jesus could never have envisioned

or planned either—such a belated
appearance of His Religion or the

multiplied and still multiplying

mutually contradictory Segments of

Christianity known as Protestantism.

A Segment or section of a thing
always remains but a piece of it;

and a ‘piece’ of Christianity is cer-

tainly not Christianity, anymore

than a piece of pie is the whole pie.

As with the Commandments we

must obey them All, so with Chris-

tianity—All of it.

JEWS AND

PROTES-

TANTISM

Divine ‘common sense’ it seems would have

dictated that a Religion intended for every

member of the human race should be

—

—one thing, and not hundreds

—relatively easy to find; and not de-
mand a search equal to the effort
of locating a needle in a haystack;

or, the sleuthing qualifications of

a Detective Dick Tracy.

Clearness is of God: confusion is of men:

Unity of Religion is of God: multiplicity

is of men.

The Catholic Church has Clearness and

Unity.

Only the Catholic Church sat at the Feet of Jesus

I HAVE BEEN ASKED

“How could you, born a Jew, ever have

become a sincere Catholic and a priest?”

Without bothering you with a detailed ex-

planation just now, let me say that the per-

fect answer to that question was given by

Levi, the Tax-gatherer, to his Fellow-
Jews

nearly two thousand years ago in a small

parchment scroll written in the Aramaic lan-

guage, the language of the Jews of that day.

This Writing has of course been translated

into every language in the world.

Have you read it? It is known as the

Writing, or Gospel, of St. Matthew:

Will you read it? Will you give yourself

a fair chance at the truth?

I am prepared to send an authentic

copy of that “Answer” to any Jew

or Jewess in exchange for a penny

post-card bearing his or her address

I will also send at request any book

which develops the subjects touched

upon in this pamphlet.

The Jewish Historian Graetz writes of this

man Jesus, in his “History of the Jews”, that:

"
High-mided earnestness and spotless moral purity

were His undeniable attributes ....

His whole Being was permeated with that
deeper re-

ligion which consecrates to God, not only the
hour

of prayer but every step in the
journey of life'.

Such a Man will bear your investigation:

It is He, who has changed the reckoning of

the calendar; and who has brought the

One God to all Nations.
