 PREFACE. 
 
 THE original plan of the Anglo-Jewish Historical Exhibition (the 
 idea of which was started by Mr. I. Spielman, the Hon. Secretary) 
 was to bring together all objects illustrating the history of the 
 Jews in England. It was however soon determined to add to this 
 illustrations of Jewish ecclesiastical art, both in this country and 
 abroad. And when the] offers of exhibits came in, so many 
 interesting objects were offered illustrating Jewish antiquities of 
 nearly all times and countries, that the scope of the Exhibition 
 was further extended to include these. Thus the following 
 Catalog^^e of objects is divided into three parts, dealing respec- 
 tively with exhibits illustrating Anglo-Jewish history, objects 
 used in Jewish culture, and MSS. and other antiquities throwing 
 light on Jewish life and thought generally. 
 
 This extension of the scope of the Exhibition has prevented the 
 full display of all the objects sent in ; these, however, have been 
 entered in the Catalogue, so that it should preserve within its 
 covers a record of all the objects illustrating Anglo- Jewish history 
 to be found in this country. By the kindness of the Deputy 
 Keeper of the Eecord Office, and of the Trustees of the British 
 Museum, and of the South Kensington Museum, supplementary 
 exhibitions are being held at those buildings ; catalogues of these 
 are appended to the present one. 
 
 In one direction it was found impossible to catalogue all the 
 objects sent in. The number of books submitted was so large 
 and yet, from the bibliographical point of view, so incomplete, 
 that it was decided to display only a selection, and only to cata- 
 logue those specially exhibited. At the same time, the Executive 
 Committee has entrusted to the editors of the present Catalogue 
 the task of compiling a complete bibliography of Anglo-Jewish 
 history and literature. This is now ready for the press, and will
 
 xxvi Preface. 
 
 shortly be published under the title of Bibliotheca Anglo- Judaica. It 
 is contemplated adding to this the names of those who have kindly 
 forwarded books to bo exhibited, and to indicate by numbers the 
 books thus forwarded. The Catalogue and Bibliography will 
 thus, between them, contain as full an account as possible of all 
 the materials for Anglo-Jewish history. 
 
 In the compilation of the present Catalogue we have to 
 acknowledge the assistance of Mr. W. Chaffers, F.S.A., in the 
 technical description of the gold and silver plate, and of Mr. H. 
 Montagu, F.S.A, Vice-President Numismatic Society, for the 
 Catalogue of Coins for which he has kindly made himself 
 responsible. Mr. C. Trice Martin has been good enough to draw 
 up the Catalogue of the Documents at the Record Office selected 
 for exhibition, and Mr. E. Maunde Thompson has superintended the 
 description of the Charters and MSS. shown by the Manuscript 
 Department of the British Museum. We have to express our 
 cordial acknowledgment for aid which has materially lightened 
 the task of describing so many objects appealing to such varied 
 tastes and requiring such a wide range of technical knowledge. 
 The shortness of time which an exhibition affords for the compila- 
 tion of a catalogue must be our excuse for any errors into which 
 we have fallen. We would add that, with regard to the trans- 
 literation of Hebrew words, we have, for the convenience of the 
 ordinary visitor, retained the system, or want of system, current 
 among English Jews.

 I. HISTORIC RELICS AND RECORDS. 
 
 THE history of the Jews in England is divided into two marked sections by 
 the dates 1290 and 1656 ; at the former they were expelled, at the latter 
 they began to be readmitted. Their connection with the general history 
 was entirely different in the two periods. In the Norman and Angevin 
 periods they formed a body closely connected with the government of the 
 country and constituting an integral part of its financial system. Since the 
 re-admission they have been one among various bodies of Dissenters from the 
 National Church, and as such their political history has been closely 
 connected with that of Dissent in general. In both periods, however, their 
 religious views have been a determining factor as regards their social position, 
 and, as will be seen, it was entirely their creed that determined their 
 anomalous position in mediaeval England. 
 
 The history of the English Jews before the Expulsion may be shortly 
 summarised as a financial experiment of the Norman kings, which was 
 rendered necessary by the policy of the Church towards " usury," but which 
 was ultimately rendered impossible by its costly character and by the rise of 
 popular religious feeling due to the Crusades and the Friars. Before the Con- 
 quest there is no trace of Jews in England beyond a few clauses in Church 
 documents which might easily have been copied from similar ones in Con- 
 tinental deeds. But when England was added to those countries of the 
 European littoral which were being organised by the Normans, it was by 
 special invitation of William that the Jews came from Rouen. The function 
 they had to play was a double one. On the one hand, the contact of England 
 with the Continent brought about a change in the economic system from one 
 of barter to one in which large amounts of capital were needed, especially for 
 the change in architecture from wood to stone buildings. This capital could 
 not be forthcoming from any but Jews, owing to the principle of the Canon 
 Law which forbade the loan of money on interest by any one under its 
 ecclesiastical jurisdiction. On the other hand, the king was the largest capitalist 
 in the country, and though it is a moot point how far the money lent by the 
 Jews was actually the king's in the first instance, there is no doubt that the 
 Exchequer treated the money of the Jews as held at the pleasure of the king. 
 There was a special " Exchequer of the Jews," presided over by special 
 " Justices of the Jews," and all the deeds of the Jews had to be placed in 
 charge of exchequer officers, or else they ceased to be legal documents. 
 They thus formed a kind of sponge which first drained the country dry owing 
 to the monopoly of capitalist transactions given them by the Canon Law, and 
 then could be squeezed into the Royal Treasury. How important their 
 contributions to this were may be j udged from the fact that on one occasion 
 the tallage of the Jews reached 60,000 marks against 70,000 supplied by the

 rest of the country. There was scarcely an important building in the country 
 which was not raised by means of Jewish capital. Their operations were 
 not confined to the large towns, as has been usually supposed. One of the 
 facts brought out in investigations undertaken in connection with the 
 present Exhibition has been their wide-spread dispersion throughout all the 
 settled parts of England. (See Map, No. 519, to which some twenty further 
 places could be added if they did not elude identification.) 
 
 Such a system of indirect taxation could not fail to be enormously 
 expensive. In order that Jews should lend money, they had to possess it, 
 and this involved keeping a large number of persons (amounting at the 
 Expulsion to nearly one per cent, of the population) in affluence. But there 
 was another influence which prevented the Jews from assimilating with the 
 people of a country established on the feudal principle, that citizenship 
 involved spiritual communion. They could not enter the guilds which were 
 founded on a religious basis, and their possession of land was expressly 
 opposed by the monks on the ground that this would put into their hands 
 spiritual benefices. Their social isolation was intensified by the hatred with 
 which they were regarded as the arch-enemies of the Church, the sole 
 exception to the consensus of Europe in favour of Christian doctrine. It is 
 characteristic that the chief outbreak of popular fury against them the 
 heroic episode of York Castle took place when the Crusading fever reached 
 its height in England, and that the Expulsion took place under the king who, 
 after Richard I., was most imbued with the Crusading spirit. Nor were the 
 Jews uninfluenced by the same spirit ; it is recorded that in 1211 no less than 
 three hundred Rabbis of France and England started for a pilgrimage to 
 the Holy Land. 
 
 The worsening of the condition of the Jews can be distinctly traced to 
 the religious revival in England due to the Franciscans. The Lateran 
 Council of 1215 accentuated the isolation of the Jews by ordering them to 
 wear a distinctive mark, which in England took the characteristic form of a 
 piece of cloth attached to the upper garment, in the shape of the two 
 tablets of the Law as seen in the synagogues to the present day (see No. 14). 
 Synagogues in many instances were handed over to the Church on trivial 
 pretexts. There is some indication that the enmity of the Church was 
 embittered by the spread of Judaism among certain classes. One Jewish list 
 of martyrs includes twenty-two proselytes burnt in England, and even if the 
 number be exaggerated, there is other evidence of Jewish proselytism in 
 England. The Church met the movement by establishing a conversionist 
 establishment in " New Street," on the site of the present Record Office (see 
 No. 11), where converts were supported for life; this building was used for the 
 purpose down to the time of Charles II. (see Public Record Exhibits, No. 50), 
 and thus gave evidence of Jews in England at all periods from the Expulsion 
 to the re-admission. 
 
 The time came when the need of a special class of capitalists and of the 
 special kind of taxation was no longer felt. From that moment the fate of 
 the Jews in England was fixed, and it came significantly enough in the 
 extension of the Canon Law about usury to the Jews, in the first Parliament 
 of Edward I., immediately after his return from the Holy Land (sec Brit.
 
 Introduction. 
 
 Mus. Exhibits, No. 33). When usury was denied to the Jews, they ceased 
 to have a locus standi in the country. They could not hold land, nor enter 
 any trade, owing to their religion ; and to have rescinded these restrictions 
 argued an amount of toleration impossible to expect in a European country 
 in the Middle Ages. The Expulsion of 1290 followed logically on the anti- 
 usury enactment of 1275, and we can only conjecture that the intermediate 
 period was filled with the necessary rearrangement of the national finances, 
 which chiefly took the form of substituting for the Jews, Cahorsins, and Italians, 
 who had not the religious difficulties. It is right to add that as far as their 
 anomalous position admitted of it, scrupulous justice was done to Jews in 
 their negotiations ; and that the ordinary idea of their general ill-treatment is 
 based on a few popular outbreaks uncontrollable by the authorities. Their 
 position, as unofficial tax-gatherers, ensured their general good treatment on 
 the part of the kings, except in the case of John. The inherent difficulty 
 of the Jewish position in England during this period was the difference of 
 creed, which prevented their belonging to the nation unless they belonged to 
 the National Church. To expect the Church to have contravened this funda- 
 mental principle would be to anticipate history by six centuries. To expect 
 the Jews to renounce their creed would be to neglect the experience of 
 twenty centuries. The two positions were irreconcilable, and the Jews had 
 to leave England when the law of the Churqh was extended to them. 
 
 The relics of their stay, collected in the present Exhibition, are exceedingly 
 scanty, as is natural when we reflect how few remains there are prior to the 
 fourteenth century. A few stone dwelling-houses (Nos. 5 to 9), which 
 the Jews were about the first to build, a few local names, a couple of cari- 
 catures in which Jews are characteristically enough represented as " sons 
 of the devil " (Nos. 14, 15), and a bronze ewer (No. 1), almost exhaust 
 the list. A grammatical work (No. 515), some Hebrew poems, by Meir of 
 Norwich, now in the Vatican, and a couple of works of an eminent Spanish 
 Jew, Abraham ibn Ezra, written while in the " island of the corner of the 
 earth" ( = Angleterre), are the sole records of their literary activity. But 
 from their quasi-official position, it is natural that the chief records should be 
 in the public documents of the time. There is scarcely a single one of these 
 before 1290 that has not some reference to Jews ; and there were also 
 whole series of rolls devoted exclusively to the pleadings and tallages of 
 the Jews (Eecord Office Exhibits, No. 3). Besides these there are still 
 extant more than two hundred Hebrew documents termed Shetaroth,* which 
 are nearly all shown in the present Exhibition. As these form our only guide 
 to the inner life of the Jewish communities at the time, albeit mainly confined 
 to their legal relations, the Committee of the Exhibition has entrusted their 
 publication, together with English abstracts, to Mr. M. D. Davis, who has 
 made the subject a life-long study. 
 
 * Hebrew "ItiJJ', " contract," Latinised as starnttn and starra.. It \\sei to be said 
 that the Star Chamber received its name from having been the receptacle of these 
 documents, and it is difficult to see how such a tradition could have arisen without 
 foundationjn fact, whereas the camera stellata can be easily enough explained as a 
 folk-etymology of this.

 7. Historic Relics and Records. 
 
 Before leaving this section of Anglo-Jewish history, we may refer to the 
 impression left on the popular mind by the peculiar position of the Jews. 
 Eeligious opposition fixed upon the Jews crimes which the same principle had 
 attributed to the early Christians ; and the crime of child murder for ritual 
 purposes was first brought against the Jews in England. The charge was 
 undoubtedly believed in, and many Jews suffered for it ; but modern cases 
 have shown its utter baselessness, which also comes out on careful exami- 
 nation of the original records. But the combined ideas of cruelty and 
 usury become connoted with the name of Jew in the popular mind, and 
 have been made a part of English literature by Marlowe and Shakespeare. 
 Strangely enough, perhaps the most enduring survival of the pre-Expulsiou 
 period is the popular impression that all Jews are rich usurers a proposition 
 roughly true of that period, but ludicrously beside the fact at the present day, 
 in a community which unfortunately has a larger proportion of poor than any 
 other in England. 
 
 Though the Jews were thus expelled the realm, we have traces of them 
 in England in one form or another during the interim. We find in the 
 fourteenth century the Commons complaining that many professing to be 
 Italians were in reality Jews. In the fifteenth the Spanish ambassador 
 complains to Henry VII. of the asylum afforded the expelled Spanish Jews 
 in England, and in the sixteenth Elizabeth's physician, Rodrigo Lopez, and 
 P. Ferdinandus, teacher of Hebrew at Cambridge, were among Jews known 
 to be in this country. And throughout, the " House of Converts " found a 
 supply of men and women ready to forswear their faith for the material 
 comforts it offered them. But no return of the Jews as a body could become 
 possible till the State recognised the legality of difference of creed. Cromwell 
 first did this as an Independent, and it is to Cromwell that the Jews owe 
 their readmission to England. 
 
 The date of the return is fixed approximately by the lease of the Spanish 
 and Portuguese burial-ground at Stepney, dated February 1657 (see No. 52). 
 Except with regard to the specific nature of the assurances given to the Jews 
 by Cromwell, the events which led up to the resettlement are tolerably clear. 
 The motives of the Dutch supporters of Menasseh ben Israel were mainly 
 commercial. The agitation against the monopoly of the companies of Eastern 
 merchants in England, and the attempts of Cromwell to render the trade 
 free, had stimulated a new activity on the part of English shippers, and, in 
 the middle of the seventeenth century, the Dutch were feeling acutely the 
 commercial competition of the English in the East Indies. None were more 
 deeply interested in that branch of trade than the Jews of Amsterdam, and 
 hence it became desirable for them to be able to establish correspondents and 
 agencies in England without hindrances or risk. At the same time events 
 had been preparing the English people to consider the question of the return 
 in a favourable spirit. The Puritans had given an Old Testament bias to 
 Christian thought, and the Messianic pretensions of Sabbathai Zevi had 
 helped to strengthen the conviction that some kind of fulfilment of prophecy 
 by means of the Jews was at hand. The question how to propitiate the Jews 
 exercised men's minds, and in 1649 culminated in a formal petition to Lord 
 Fairfax and the General Council of Officers for their recall. It is stated tlxat
 
 Introduction. 
 
 this petition was " favourably received " (see No. 820). No action resulted 
 from it, however, but during the next few years the question seems to have 
 been continuously before the public. Towards the end of 1655 Menasseh 
 ben Israel (see No. 947), who, from his home in Amsterdam, had sent more 
 than one communication to the Protector and other leading men in England, 
 personally visited London with a view to obtaining an authoritative permis- 
 sion for his co-religionists to dwell again in that country. The course of his 
 mission is marked in the State papers and other documents shown in the 
 supplementary exhibitions held at the Eecord Office and the British Museum 
 (see E. 0. Nos. 37 to 43 ; B. M. No. 36). Notwithstanding the personal 
 interest of Cromwell, no formal permission was granted by the Council of 
 State for the Jews to take up their abode in England ; but some unofficial 
 authorisation was obtained from the Protector by which Menasseh's followers 
 were enabled to meet privately for prayer (see E. 0. No. 43), and to acquire 
 a burial-place. Without such a licence it is obvious that they would not 
 have purchased the Stepney graveyard, to which reference has been made. 
 
 The history from this date divides itself into two parts an external and 
 and an internal history ; the former recording the successive stages in the 
 struggle for emancipation, the latter tracing the gradual growth, organisation, 
 and development of the community. From the nature of the connivance 
 by which the Jews had settled in the country their position was at first 
 equivocal and precarious. They were both aliens and dissenters, and, as such, 
 liable to all kinds of petty persecution at the hands of common informers. 
 Their individual denization was opposed by the mercantile public ; they 
 were indicted for worshipping in the synagogue, and on one occasian (1685) 
 a crowd of them were arrested at the Eoyal Exchange for not attending 
 church. As late as 1835, not only could no Jew sit in Parliament, but he 
 was prevented from holding any civil or military office under the Crown or 
 any situation in corporate bodies. He might be excluded from practising at 
 the bar, or as an attorney or notary, from voting at elections, and from taking 
 degrees at the Universities. 
 
 The first legislative attempts at partial emancipation were made outside 
 England in the American colonies and Ireland. In 1740 an Act of Parlia- 
 ment was passed providing for the naturalisation of foreigners and others, 
 including Jews, after seven years' residence in British colonies. This measure 
 was hampered by so many restrictions and conditions that it was almost 
 useless. The second attempt (1745) was a Platonic demonstration on behalf 
 of religious liberty by the Irish House of Commons there being scarcely 
 any Jews in Ireland at the time, but it also proved abortive, in consequence 
 of the hostility of the Peers. One result of the Irish Bill was the establishment 
 of the Board of Deputies (see No. 614), which was formed to watch the progress 
 of the measure, and which has continued its existence to the present time. 
 In 1753 the first serious effort to place the Jews on an equality with their 
 fellow-countrymen was made by the famous " Jew Bill." This measure, 
 which was initiated in the Lords, and received the assent of both the 
 Commons and the Crown, provoked an unexampled outburst of intolerance 
 in the country. Partisans of the Bill were mobbed, and the country was 
 flooded with ribald broadsheets and caricatures, in which every species of
 
 G J. Historic Relics and Record*. 
 
 obloquy was heaped on the unoffending Hebrews. The Ministry l>ecamo 
 alarmed, and quickly introduced and passed another Bill to repeal the 
 obnoxious measure. By this display of intolerance the progress of Jewish 
 emancipation was seriously retarded, and it was not until 1830 that the 
 question was again brought before the public. 
 
 In the meantime the Jews had prospered, and many of them had 
 achieved high social position. They acutely felt their exclusion from 
 civil and political rights, and sought the first favourable opportunity of 
 bringing their claims before Parliament. This was afforded by the distinctly 
 liberal tendency of public feeling manifested in the repeal of the Test and 
 Corporation Act in 1828. Sir Isaac Lyon Goldsmid, Mr. N. M. Rothschild, 
 Sir David Salomons, and Sir Moses Moutefiore, assisted by the Board of 
 Deputies, organised a small movement and enlisted the support of influential 
 friends. In 1830 the struggle commenced with the introduction of Mr. 
 llobert Grant's Bill for the Ilepeal of the Civil Disabilities of the Jews. The 
 measure was defeated on the second reading. Three years later another effort 
 was made and with better success. The Commons passed the Bill, but the 
 Lords threw it out. Year by year the campaign was now prosecuted with 
 unwearying zeal; but the obduracy of the Lords proved insurmountable. 
 New tactics were resolved upon. Leading Jews became candidates for public 
 officers, from which, in the then state of the law, they were excluded. 
 This at once changed the question from an academic to a practical one, 
 and also had the effect of enlisting as friends the large section of the upblic 
 who by their votes had committed themselves to the eligibility of Jews for 
 public employment. In this way municipal (1835) and corporate (1845) 
 offices were successively thrown open to Jews, and in 1847 an attack was 
 made on Parliament itself. Here however the resistance was most obstinate. 
 Even such friends of the Jews as the Duke of Sussex hesitated to regard 
 this phase of the question as an integral part of Jewish rights. To administer 
 the law was one thing ; to be concerned in making it in a country which 
 was Christian by statute, was held to be both dangerous and anomalous. The 
 contest raged round the wording of the oath which the Jewish members 
 of Parliament Baron Lionel de Rothschild and Sir David Salomons refused 
 to take. For eleven years the question was debated ; but in 1858, by the 
 good offices of Mr. Disraeli, a compromise was arranged with the Lords, by 
 which the whole of the Jewish claim was conceded. Two years later an Act 
 received the royal assent enabling Jews on all occasions whatsoever to omit 
 the words " on the true faith of a Christian," from the Oath of Allegiance. 
 Since that date Jews have been prominent among the members of the Lower 
 House. One, Sir George Jessel, afterwards Master of the Rolls (see No. 1110), 
 served as Solicitor-General, and Baron H. de Worms has twice filled the 
 Under-Secretaryship to the Board of Trade in a Conservative Ministry. What 
 lingering doubt there might have been as to the eligibility of Jews for 
 membership of the higher House was removed in 1885, when Mr. Gladstone 
 created Sir Nathaniel de Rothschild a peer (see No. lll'J). 
 
 The internal history of the community follows a course very similar to that 
 of their political progress, with the exception that it has been continuous and 
 peaceful. The only disturbing feature was the Reform Movement of 1840
 
 Pre-Expulsion Period. 
 
 a movement the significance of which, was much exaggerated at the time, and 
 all the bitterness of which has long since passed away. Much of the history 
 of this period may be read in the following pages, iu the documents relating 
 to public institutions, the relics of public men, and the notes appended to the 
 entries of portraits of communal celebrities and other exhibits.

 Found by a fisherman in a brook in Suffolk about 1696, 
 it passed into possession of Dr. Covel, whose executors 
 sold it to the Earl of Oxford, from whom it passed to 
 Dr. Eawlinson and thence into the Ashmolean Museum. 
 The interpretation of the inscription, and the object for 
 which the ewer was used, is still disputed among autho- 
 rities, most being of opinion that it was a receptacle for 
 the charitable funds of a congregation. Dr. Neubauer 
 holding that it was a laver used for washing the dead.

 entry, was probably Cok [ ? Isaac, Heb. YitzcJiaJc] son of 
 Aaron, mentioned in the accompanying entry, of which 
 the following is a translation : 
 
 COLCHESTER to wit : By the same it was brought forward that a 
 certain doe was started in Wildenhaye Wood by the dogs of Sir 
 John de Burgh, sen., which doe in her night came by the top of 
 the City of Colchester, crossing towards another wood on the other 
 side of that city. And there issued forth Saunte son of Ursel, Jew 
 of Colchester, Cok son of Aaron, and Samuel son of the same, 
 Isaac the Jewish chaplain, Copin and Elias, Jews, and certain 
 Christians of the said city, to wit : William Scott [2s.], Henry the 
 Gutter [2s.], Henry the Toller [2s.], and others. And these with 
 a mighty clamour chased the same doe through the south gate into 
 the aforesaid city and they so worried her by their shouting that 
 'they forced her to jump over a wall 
 and she thus brake her neck to wit, 
 on Wednesday next after the feast of 
 St. Nicholas in the fifty-second year 
 of the reign of King Henry [7 Dec., 
 1267]. And there came upon them 
 Walter the Goldsmith, Bailiff [half a 
 mark] and Kobert the Toller [2s.], 
 beadle of the same city, and others 
 that are dead, and carried thence the 
 game and had their will of it. And 
 these came not nor did their attorneys. 
 Thereupon it was ordered to the Sheriff 
 that he summon the aforesaid Jews 
 from day to day, and a day was set to 
 the Bailiffs of Colchester for producing 
 the others mentioned, within three 
 weeks from Easter Day. And the 
 aforesaid Saunte and Isaac put in an 
 appearance and being convicted were 
 cast into prison. And the aforesaid 
 Cok stayeth at Lincoln, therefore was 
 it ordered to the Sheriff of Lincoln to 
 produce him within one month from 
 Easter. And the aforesaid Saunte being led forth'from prison was 
 fined forty shillings on the surety of Yives of Gipewis [Ipswich], 
 Vives of Clare and Mosse Panel of Haverhulle, Jews. And the 
 aforesaid Elias came not nor was he to be found. Therefore let 
 him be driven forth, &c. And the aforesaid Isaac being led forth 
 from prison was fined in four marks on the surety of Joce of 
 Cantuar [Canterbury] Jew, Abraham son of Aaron, Isaac son of 
 Chera, Jew, Saer son of Kadulph of Colchester, and Richard Pruet 
 of the same. And later came forward the aforesaid Copin and 
 Samuel and are committed to prison, and being led forth were 
 fined, that is to say, Copin in t\vo marks on the surety of 
 Vives son of Coperun, and Aaron son of Leo, Jews. And the 
 aforesaid Samuel in one mark on the surety of Jacob of London 
 and Saunte son of Ursel of Colchester, Jews. And the Sheriff 
 Lincoln] answereth nought concerning the aforesaid Cok the Jew 
 but contemned the mandate of the Justiciars, &c. Wherefore he is 
 at mercy one hundred shillings. And the said Cok who came not 
 ten marks by taxation of the Justiciars.

 Two photos from paintings by Moritz Oppenheim. 
 
 In 1806 Napoleon I. invaded Hesse Cassel. The Elector William, previous 
 to his flight, deposited his fortune, with his Court Agent Maier Amschel 
 Rothschild of Frankfort. The use of this large sum of money is said to 
 have founded the fortunes of the Rothschild family, which wore still 
 further secured when, at the end of the Napoleonic wars, the sons 
 of Maier Rothschild returned the money with interest.

 Photo. 
 
 In this house (known as " Zum Griinen Schild ") in the old Ghetto or Juden- 
 gasse, of Frankfort, dwelt Maier Amschel Rothschild (b. 1743, d. 1802), 
 the great-grandfather of Lord Rothschild, and the founder of the family. 
 It dates from 1711 when, in consequence of the destruction of the 
 quarter by fire, the Judengasse was rebuilt. Maier Rothschild purchased 
 it in 1780, and all his nineteen children were born and reared within its 
 walls. When last year the Judengasse was demolished, the heirs of 
 Maier Rothschild caused the stones to be carefully preserved and num- 
 bered, and the building has lately been re-erected in Frankfort. It serves 
 as the head-quarters of the Rothschild charities in that city.

 II. JEWISH ECCLESIASTICAL ART. 
 
 THE historic origin and uses of the principal objects represented in this 
 section are described under their respective heads ; but as they all partake 
 of an artistic character, it has been judged desirable to introduce them with 
 some general observations on Jewish Ecclesiastical Art. Unfortunately this 
 branch of study has no very distinct existence, and it would be extremely 
 difficult to trace its history in any detail. It is more correct to speak of a 
 geography than of a history of Jewish Ecclesiastical Art ; for like the jargons 
 of the Hebrew people, their manners and customs, their superstitions and 
 other phenomena of their social life, their art is little more than a composite 
 deposit of the contrastful impressions of a wide geographical dispersion, and 
 of a varied and chequered history. Whether the Hebrew consciousness is 
 normally deficient of artistic sympathies, or whether it has been dulled in 
 this respect by the Biblical command anent graven images, are interesting 
 questions upon which we need not dilate. Their discussion in these pages 
 would not assist the reader to a better comprehension or appreciation of the 
 exhibits to which we are referring. Our historic survey must be limited to 
 the remark that, whatever the normal artistic capacities of the Hebrew people, 
 they must have been strongly affected, if not altogether transformed, by the 
 stupendous catastrophe of the Dispersion, and the career of ceaseless wander- 
 ing and misery which subjected them to the perplexing influences of ever- 
 changing surroundings. 
 
 In short, the peculiar nature of Jewish history left the Jews little leisure 
 for the cultivation of art as art ; and their efforts in this respect were less 
 directed to the production of things of beauty, for the sake of their beauty, 
 than to the illustration of the affection or reverence in which they held 
 particular persons or things. For this purpose the mere richness of the gift 
 Avas sufficient, and, design being to a certain extent a minor consideration, 
 they borrowed freely from the art types of the nations among whom they 
 dwelt, or from the more obvious methods of costly decoration. Their 
 betrothal rings, for example, were frequently of immense size, but, except 
 that they bore a Hebrew inscription signifying " Good Luck," they rarely 
 differed from the similar rings in vogue among the Gentiles. A curious 
 example of the indication of reverence for ritual paraphernalia by the mere 
 costliness of the ornamentation is afforded by No. 185-i in the present 
 exhibition, in which a pair of phylactery sheaths are encased in stout plates 
 of gold set with large diamonds. 
 
 Throughout his history, the Jew has prized nothing more highly than 
 that portion of the Scriptures which records the earliest traditions of his race, 
 and contains his Sacred Law ; and he has marked his reverence for it by a 
 lavish ornamentation of the Scrolls from which it is read during Divine 
 
 G 2

 service. Mantles of costly stuffs and rich embroidery are partially covered 
 with breastplates of silver or gold, and surmounted by elaborate crowns or bells. 
 Even the pointer with which the reader follows the text is frequently a 
 marvel of goldsmithery, and more often than not the index finger will be 
 found tipped with a jewel. Thus costumed, the scroll is enshrined in an 
 ark which, in the synagogue, is generally a fine piece of joinery or ironwork, 
 and in the home being of smaller size is more elaborate, sometimes even of 
 silver studded with precious stones. Two splendid examples of the latter 
 kind of arks are shown in the present Exhibition. (See Nos. 136] and 1903.) 
 And then, finally, a velvet or satin curtain is hung before the ark, on which 
 figure suitable inscriptions and designs in bullion embroidery. It is curious to 
 notice that in their anxiety to bring the richest tributes to their Holy Law, 
 the Jews have not scrupled to evade the strict letter of the law with regard to 
 graven images. Heraldic representations of animals, and sometimes even 
 figures of the Law-giver and the High Priest occur on mantles and breast- 
 plates ; and it was held that such representations, being only in partial 
 relief, did not constitute complete images. Of course the scope of ornamenta- 
 tion would have been much restricted without them. 
 
 After the Law, the home is perhaps the most precious thing in the eyes 
 of the Jew. As the former was the fountain-head of his spiritual consolation 
 in the evil days of his outlawry, so the latter was the source of all the 
 human comfort with which his sorrows were soothed. The domestic 
 religious exercises prescribed by his religion afforded many opportunities 
 for enhancing the sacred character of his home, and enabled him to 
 illustrate both his affection for the domestic hearth, and his reverence for 
 his faith, by a numerous ritual paraphernalia, in the design and con- 
 struction of which the ornamental arts were largely employed. For the 
 inauguration and termination of the Sabbath he used and still uses 
 candelabra, spice boxes and sanctification cups. Special diohes and goblets 
 were employed in the Passover meal ; and the citron, used during the Feast of 
 Tabernacles, was enclosed in a case. The Feast of Dedication was honoured 
 with elaborate candlesticks; and the roll of Esther read on the Feast of 
 Purim was the object of specially magnificent ornamentation. The 
 illuminated Meyilloth, as these rolls arc called, with their varied but always 
 elaborate cases, are among the most remarkable objects displayed in the 
 Ecclesiastical Art Section of the present Exhibition. It is needless to pursue 
 the enumeration of the ritual utensils which Jews love to honour by means 
 of the decorative arts. Religious ceremonies compass the whole life of the 
 observant Jew, and hence the list of objects susceptible of artistic present- 
 ment is very long. We should add in conclusion that, while the designs 
 affected by Jewish ecclesiastical art are of the most cosmopolitan character, 
 some distinctive feature, common to the race and its history, generally appears 
 on each object. Sometimes it is a Hebrew inscription, sometimes such 
 traditional emb'ems as the seven-branched candlestick, the tablets of the 
 Law, or the interlaced triangle known as "the Shield of David." But 
 except in some form of charms these characteristic symbols are only incidental 
 mid subordinate to a main design which has not the remotest connection with 
 the history of the Hebrew people.
 
 Synagogue. Ark and Curtain. 
 
 SYNAGOGUE, 
 a. ARK AND CURTAIN. 
 
 [The receptacle for the Scroll of the Law is termed the Ark 
 
 which has usually two doors opening outwards. It is usually covered 
 by a curtain sliding on a rail. In the arrangement of the ark and the 
 curtain covering it, reminiscences of the Temple with its Holy of Holies 
 concealed by a curtain, has doubtless had an influence. In Spanish 
 synagogues the curtain is inside the doors, a relic of the times when such 
 a receptacle had to be concealed from the officers of the Inquisition. The 
 ark is sometimes portable, being used in domestic worship, or in travel- 
 ling, and under those cases is without a curtain, and is termed a case.

 I. PERPETUAL LAMPS. 
 
 [In every synagogue a lamp (T"JDn ~)3) is kept burning perpetually. It is 
 usually a swinging lamp, immediately in front of the Ark. Here again 
 there is a reference to the Temple service, where a perpetual lamp 
 was kept burning, as is known from the Maccabean legend of the Feast 
 of Dedication.]

 c. LAYERS FOR PRIESTS. 
 
 [Jews, being a nation of priests, the existence of a special class of priests 
 (CoJianim) was only rendered necessary by the Temple service, and the 
 " Sons of Aaron " have only one priestly function remaining to them at 
 the present day, the benediction mentioned in the Law. This is given with 
 hands upraised with a division between the middle and ring finger, a 
 position of the fingers which has become a characteristic of the Cohanim. 
 Before 'the solemn act the priests must ensure ritual purity by laving 
 the hands, which thus becomes part of the service and necessitates a 
 laver.]

 d SCROLLS OF THE LAW AND APPURTENANCES. 
 
 [The reading of the Law being the central function of Jewish public worship, 
 everything connected with it is decorated as sumptuously as possible. 
 The scroll itself (miD ~IDD) must be written, not printed or litho- 
 graphed, nor must it be in book form, the ancient form of scroll being 
 retained. The parchment (or leather) is attached to rollers with handles, 
 termed " tree of life " (D^H fl?), by which the scroll is unrolled from 
 right to left. When closed and about to be returned to the ark, it is tied 
 securely by a band, which is often elaborately worked, and then is 
 enclosed in a mantle to keep it free from dust. Attached to the top 
 handles by chains is a breastplate (TtO), on which is inscribed the name 
 of the festival. Then comes the pointer ("I" 1 ), by which the reader 
 follows the text without touching the scroll. This is invariably in the 
 shape of a hand with outstretched finger. On the two tops of the 
 handles are placed bells to recall those attached to the high priest's dress 
 in the Temple. Sometimes these are replaced by a crown. The function 
 of carrying the scroll, thus adorned, to and fro from the Ark is an 
 honour accorded to privileged persons on the chief holidays.]

 e. SYNAGOGUE DECORATION. 
 
 [As is well known, the interior decoration of synagogues is very simple. 
 There is always however included the Tablets of the Law with the initial 
 words of the Ten Commandments, generally placed above the Ark. In, 
 English Synagogues the Prayer for the Royal Family is generally 
 placed so that it can be read by the congregation. The Beading Desk 
 on which the Scroll of the Law is placed is covered with a decorated 
 cover.]

 [Music has always been the Jewish art par excellence, though the earliest 
 forms seem to have the peculiar intervals so distressing to Western ears. 
 Very little of contemporary Jewish music can be traced very far back, 
 Arabic, French and German folk songs being discernible in the music of 
 the Synagogue. The peculiar cantillation with which the Law is read has- 
 better claims to antiquity. And at least the Shophar, or ram's-hora 
 trumpet, used on the New Year and the Fast of Atonement, is the same- 
 instrument as that referred to by the same name in the Bible.]

 7i. SABBATH REQUISITES. 
 
 [The Sabbath is welcomed " as a bride " by the devout Jew. According to 
 the Jewish proverb, " where there's light there's joy," the Sabbath Eve 
 is ushered in by the lighting of the Lamp, the form of which is not fixed,, 
 but is usually of seven burners. A cup of wine, the Kiddush Cup, or 
 cup of sanctification, is tasted. The bread at the evening meal is of 
 special form (Halla), and before use is covered with the Halla Cloth. 
 The close of the Sabbath has also its own ceremonial, in which the 
 Kiddush Cup is again used, and the senses are gratified by the sweet 
 savour of the Spice-box, doubtless a reminiscence of the East.]

 1 FESTIVAL REQUISITES. 
 
 [The chief Jewish festivals that are celebrated in the home, and thus require 
 special requisites are Passover, Tabernacles, Hanuca (Feast of Dedication 
 of the Temple), and Purim, or the Feast of Esther. The chief service of 
 the Passover is that of the Passover Eve (Seder), when the story of the 
 Exodus is told to the children, with appropriate symbols. Four glasses 
 of wine are emptied, bitter herbs are eaten, and the bread is unleavened 
 (i"lD). In the centre of the table is placed a cup for the use of the 
 Prophet Elijah if he should come to announce the coming of the Messiah. 
 The Feast of Tabernacles is celebrated by residence in a booth (HDD 
 Succa), which is built with only leaves and boughs for a roof. There is 
 used besides the Ethrog, or citron, and the Lulab, or palm-branch, round 
 which is twined myrtle and willow, which have all their symbolic 
 teaching. The Feast of Dedication of the Temple, when the Lamp was 
 miraculously kept alight for eight days, has for an appropriate symbol a 
 eight-branched candelabrum, to which is attached a master lamp (termed 1 
 " the beadle "), making nine in all ; as many lamps are each evening 
 lighted as the days of the feast that have come. Lastly, the feast that 
 celebrates the salvation of the Jews by Esther is appropriately celebrated 
 by reading the record of her deeds in the Megilla, or scroll of Esther."}

 [Jewish betrothals used to be equally formal and binding as marriages, and 
 Betrothal Kings were made equally elaborate as Wedding Rings, which 
 
 often contain the names of the wedded pair, with the addition of 
 ("Good Luck"). The former in early times were used to surround a 
 sprig of myrtle, whence their large size. At the wedding ceremony it is 
 customary for the bridegroom to break the glass out of which the bride 
 and he have drank the wine of sanctification. The ceremony is recorded 
 in Hebrew in the marriage certificate (Chetubah). Divorce is only made 
 known by a letter of divorce (tOJ), which are pierced and cut curiously.]

 III. ANTIQUITIES. 
 
 ANY complete collection of Jewish antiquities would range over the whole 
 field of historic archaeology. Scattered through all the nations of the civilized 
 world, the Jews have had points of contact with every nation that has had a 
 history. The few specimens drawn from this wide field shown in the 
 present Exhibition cannot profess to represent in any degree the whole field 
 of Jewish antiquities, and only afford a glimpse of the much broader basis on 
 which Anglo-Jewish history itself rests. The collection is miscellaneous in 
 character, and only admits of rough classification under the headings of 
 MSS., Books, Inscriptions, the Temple, Holy Land, and Assyria, and lastly, 
 Seals and Rings, on each of which a lew remarks may here be made. 
 
 Almost all the Hebrew MSS. offered have been shown and catalogued as 
 it is in inedited MSS. that ever fresh light is to be expected in the various 
 departments of Jewish literature. Some rare liturgies, translations of the 
 Arabic philosophers into Hebrew, Avill be found amongst them. But the 
 chief attraction of our collection is formed by two collections, one of general 
 range, exhibited by Sir Julian Goldsmid, Bart., M.P., and the Samaritan 
 MSS. shown by the Earl of Crawford and Balcarres, the finest private 
 collection of this class of MSS. in existence ; no list of these has hitherto 
 appeared in print, though an elaborate catalogue has been drawn up by the 
 Rev. A. Lowy, and is exhibited with the MSS., to which it forms an indis- 
 pensable guide. Turning from the sublime to the other extreme, attention 
 may be drawn to the notorious " Shapira MS." which created such a 
 sensation while the question of its authenticity was still sub lite. 
 
 The Books shown have been chiefly selected for the extrinsic merits of their 
 binding, as the British Museum offered to exhibit a selection of its magnifi- 
 cent collection, with which we could not hope to cope. Besides this the 
 Trustees are also displaying some sixty of their Hebrew MSS. selected from 
 their collection of over one thousand codices. Scholars will be glad of even 
 this small instalment of a catalogue of these treasures. 
 
 Under Inscriptions we may notice the collection of photographs found by 
 M. Isidore Loeb.and kindly placed at our disposal; inscriptions from France, 
 Spain, Germany, Arabia, and the Holy Land, are included under this head. 
 Material is thus offered to the student for a study of Hebrew necrograr>hic 
 inscriptions. 
 
 The intimate connection of Jewish history and feeling with the Holy Land 
 would justify the exhibits dealing with Palestine, even if there were no section of 
 antiquities. Both in their own thoughts and in the views of others, the 
 relation of Jews with the Holy Land is so close that no lapse of time can 
 dissever their connection, if only imaginative, with the past glories of the
 
 134 III. Antiquities. 
 
 Holy Land. And of these the memory looks back with especial affection to 
 the glories of the Temple. These are represented in the present Exhibition 
 by a remarkable model reconstruction of Solomon's time, the result of the life 
 study of Mr. Thomas Newberry, and of three, years' labour of Messrs. Bartlett. 
 Scholars will doubtless dispute as to the amount of the success with which 
 the ancient building has been reconstructed from the scanty mentions in the 
 Biblical records, but all' will admire the industry and ingenuity with which 
 the mechanical difficulties of such a conception have been approached and 
 surmounted. 
 
 The ^Palestine Exploration Fund exhibit the choicest of their treasures, 
 chief among which may be mentioned their own map, the most important 
 contribution to Biblical study that has been made in England for many 
 years. The other objects they exhibit have attracted such wide interest 
 among Bible students that detailed descriptions would be an impertinence 
 towards these, and in another sense impertinent to the wants of the general 
 public. The Moabite Stone and the Siloam Inscription have been the subject 
 of numbers of monographs which have not yet exhausted the instruction to 
 be drawn from these earliest specimens of Semitic palaeography. Students 
 will have these at hand, others will be content to do without more explicit 
 description. 
 
 Next to the Holy Land, the Land of the Captivity, where the Jewish 
 exiles refused to sing their songs in a strange land, has chief interest to the 
 student of Jewish history, not to speak of the many-coloured light that the 
 cuneiform inscriptions have thrown upon Biblical archaeology in general. 
 A carefully selected collection of Assyrian objects discovered by Mr. H. 
 Kassam, and exhibited by Mrs. Gr. E. Sandeman, will give the visitor some 
 idea of the range of Assyrian archaeology. 
 
 Lastly, a number of Seals and Eings offer some addition to the scanty 
 materials of Jewish sigillography, a subject on which a complete monograph 
 has been promised for some time past from the learned pen of M. Saige. In 
 this department, as in others, the compilers regret that the hurry-scurry with 
 which work such as theirs must be conducted, has prevented the full 
 inscriptions and descriptions from being given. Their entries cannot profess 
 to do more than record in the briefest possible way the nature of the exhibits 
 and the source whence fuller accounts may be obtained.

 IV.COINS AND MEDALS. 
 
 THERE are, of course, no Anglo-Jewish coins ; but it seemed natural that in 
 our Exhibition some of the pieces referring to the History of the Jews in tho 
 Holy Land should find a place, and the result has been that a very creditable 
 selection of Jewish coins has, by the kindness of the respective owners, been 
 obtained from some of the best collections, and is being displayed within 
 these walls. 
 
 It had been suggested that in connection with our own Loan Collection a 
 short resume should be given by me on the subject of the Jewish Coinage in 
 general ; and while, on the one hand, admitting the difficulty of compressing 
 much elaborate detail into the few pages allowed to me for that purpose, I 
 must, on the other hand, acknowledge the obligations under which I am to 
 the authors of the various works and papers from which so much of my 
 material is necessarily derived. 
 
 Mr. Frederic W. Madden, in his History of the Jewish Coinage (B. 
 Quaritch, 1864), of which virtually a Second Edition is contained in the 
 International Numismata Orientalia, vol. ii. (Triibner & Co., 1881), has 
 made the subject peculiarly his own, and I am also indebted to him for some 
 hints concerning this short paper. Other authors who have been and may be 
 consulted with advantage are the Abbe Cavedoni (Numismatica Biblica, 
 Modena, 1849 and 1850) ; Monsieur F. de Saulcy (Recherches sur la Numis- 
 matique Juda'ique, Paris, 1854, and Numismatique de la Terre Sainte, Paris, 
 1874); Dr. Levy, of Breslau (Geschichte der Judischen Munzen, Breslau, 
 1862) ; Dr. Eugen Merzbacher (" Die Zeitrechnung der Sekel," in the Zeit- 
 schrift der Numismatik, 1878, vol. v., &c. &c.) ; Mr. Reginald S. Poolc 
 (article on " Money " in Dr. Smith's Dictionary of the Bible) ; and Dr. John 
 Evans, a leading member of our Council, who not only has skilfully criticised 
 Monsieur Saulcy's work, but has as ably dealt with other questions connected 
 with the Jewish Coinage in the pages of the Numismatic Chronicle, and in 
 which are also to be found scattered papers by the Eevs. H. C. Eeichardt (one 
 of our most enterprising collectors), Churchill Babington, S. S. Lewis and 
 H. J. Eose. 
 
 Among so many authors it may be assumed that there has not been a 
 want of controversial discussion, but the limits assigned to me do not enable 
 me to enlarge upon any disputed points, and I will now give a brief outline of 
 the subject, leaving those whom it may interest to consult for fuller informa- 
 tion and instruction the various authorities to whom I have referred. 
 
 The earliest medium of exchange in use among the Jews was uncoined 
 silver, which passed by weight and not by tale. The word " shekel "
 
 152 IV. Coins and Medals. 
 
 which signifies " weight," is aii evidence of this, and all the passages in the 
 Pentateuch in which shekels or silver pieces are mentioned, refer to pieces 
 weighed out, probably in the shape of ingots, and not to coined money or 
 pieces struck under authority. It was an age of barter, and the currency 
 question had not yet arisen. 
 
 After the return from Babylon gold talents and drams were also in use, as 
 will be seen by reference to Ezra (viii. 25-27), but these again were divisions 
 of weight and not of coined money. 
 
 The famous edict of Cyrus, King of Persia, authorizing the return to 
 Jerusalem, was dated A.M. 3224 (B.C. 536), but our first record of actual coined 
 money of the Jews dates only from the first year of Simon Maccabaeus 
 (A.M. 3617, B.C. 143), or, according to Dr. Eugen Merzbacher, two years later, 
 when the official era of the Government of Simon commenced. 
 
 The authority to the Jews to coin money was conferred upon them by 
 Antiochus VII., Sidetes, in his grant of privileges addressed to Simon, con- 
 taining the words, "I give thee leave also to coin money for thy country with 
 thine own stamp ; " but seeing that this edict was probably issued when the 
 Syrian king was staying at Khodes, Simon appears to have coined money in 
 his first official year without authority. 
 
 The following is a synopsis of the periods during which were struck such 
 pieces as can fairly be treated as coining within the scope of our Exhibition 
 and of this paper : 
 
 (I.) Maccabaean or Asmonaean family, A.M. 3617-3723 (B.C. 143-37). 
 
 (II.) Idumaean or Herodian Princes, A.M. 3723 to perhaps 3860 (B.C. 37- 
 
 A.D. 100 ?). 
 
 (III.) Roman Procurators of Judaea, who governed it as a Roman Province 
 during the ostensible reigns of some of the last-mentioned princes, A.M. 
 3766-3826 (A.D. 6-66). 
 
 (IV.) First revolt of the Jews under the leadership of Eleazar, son of 
 Ananias ; Eleazar, son of Simon ; John of Gischala ; Simon, son of Gamaliel ; 
 and Simon, son of Gioras, A.M. 3826-3830 (A.D. 66-70). 
 
 (V.) Coins struck in Palestine and at Home, commemorating the capture 
 of Jerusalem, A.M. 3830 (A.D. 70), and 
 
 (VI.) Second revolt of the Jews under Simon Barcochab, A.M. 3892-3895 
 (A.D. 132-135). 
 
 Of the money coined at these different periods I will now treat seriatim. 
 
 (I.) Maccabaean or Asmouaean family. The princes of this family who 
 struck pieces for current use were Simon Maccabaeus (son of Mattathias), his 
 son John Hyrcanus, Judas Aristobulus and Alexander Jannaeus (sons of 
 John Hyrcanus), and Alexander II. and Antigonus (sons of Alexander 
 Januaeus and his wife Alexandra). In addition to these some very rare 
 small copper coins are ascribed to Alexandra, the wife of Alexander Januaeus, 
 on the strength of the occurrence of BAZIAIZ (for BAZIAIZZAZ, which in 
 pure Attic would be BAZIAEIAZ) upon these pieces. One rare piece is also 
 attributed to her son John Hyrcanus II. 
 
 Simon Maccabaeus coined shekels of his 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th years, 
 and probably also half-shekels of the same years ; at present no half-shekel of 
 the year 5 has made its appearance. The shekel of the 5th year was until
 
 Introduction. 153 
 
 lately unique in the collection of the Rev. S. S. Lewis, who exhibits it; but 
 another was recently purchased in Paris by Mr. W. Talbot Heady, of 
 55 Kathbone Place, W., to whom I am much indebted for labelling and 
 arranging, under my direction, the coins exhibited. This piece is now in the 
 National Collection. Shekels of the 4th year were very rare indeed, until a 
 recent find of some hundreds of shekels and half-shekels near Jerusalem, 
 succeeding the previous but much smaller trouville near Jericho, materially 
 diminished their rarity, but the half-shekel of that year (of which a specimen 
 Js also in the cabinet of Rev. S. S. Lewis), still continues to be excessively 
 rare. 
 
 All known authentic Jewish coins bear inscriptions in old Hebrew (Hebreu 
 jvrchaique) or Samaritan characters; the later Syro-Chaldaean or square 
 Hebrew letters are positively unknown on them, and any piece or coin, there- 
 fore, so inscribed may be at once determined to be a forgery or concoction. I 
 find it convenient, however, to refer to inscriptions in the modern characters, 
 owing partly to the difficulty in obtaining the necessary type, and partly to my 
 desire to make the subject more intelligible to the general student. 
 
 The shekel has on the obverse a cup or chalice, with the inscription 
 ?pK> (Shekel of Israel) above the number of the year, N for 1, 2 for 
 2, &c., with (except in the case of the first year) a W (for T\y&, year) 
 preceding it. On the reverse is a triple lily or hyacinth, or, according to 
 some, the budding rod of Aaron,* with the legend ntJHp D7B>n* (Holy 
 Jerusalem). After the first year, the name of the city, on both the shekels 
 and half-shekels, is spelt DvB'IT. The standard Aveight of the shekel is 
 220 grams, and the value in English money about 2s. 8d. 
 
 The half-shekel is similar, except that the inscription on the obverse is 
 n (half-shekel). Copper pieces, but only of the 4th year and 
 including a copper shekel of that year, are also known. The copper shekel 
 resembles those in silver; the other pieces bear the number of the year, 
 together with designs of the palm-branch (Lulab) and citrons (Ethrogim), 
 both sacred to the Feast of Tabernacles, and the legend }1*X J"DJO^ (The 
 redemption of Zion). 
 
 Of John Hyrcanus only copper pieces are known. His name is written 
 (irviT or p31H (Jehochanan) and piir* (Jehonan), and the coins purport 
 on the face of them to be issued by D'T.Tn "Onn CPfcO ^HJH jron pmrp 
 (Jehochanan, the High Priest and Prince of the Confederation of the Jews) 
 with some slight variations. 
 
 Judas Aristobulus, whose name on his coins is nTlH* (Judah), struck 
 somewhat similar pieces in copper only, but these, owing to the shortness of 
 his reign, are of extreme rarity. 
 
 Alexander Jannaeus was the first prince who adopted Greek inscriptions, 
 iis well as Hebrew legends, and on some of his pieces these are bi-lingual. 
 lu Hebrew, he is styled n^n iru*!"P (the! king Jehonathan) ; in Greek,

 The rare pieces ascribed to Alexandra, his widow, I have before referred 
 to. There are several types of copper coins resembling those of Alexander 
 Jannaeus, among which one unique piece may be ascribed to John Hyrcanus II. r 
 his son, and others, according to some numismatists, belong to Alexander II. ; 
 tut, according to others, should await some more certain and final determi- 
 nation, the only consensus in opinion being that they were at all events 
 struck before the reign of Antigonus. 
 
 This monarch was the last reigning prince of his race, and was probably 
 the first king whom the Romans ever subjected to the disgrace of being 
 executed with the axe. One series of copper coins of his reign is known, on 
 which the inscription is bi-lingual. That in Greek reads BACIAEfiC 
 ANT1FONOY (of the king Antigonus), and that in Hebrew adds to his 
 Hebrew name (HTinD, Mattathias), the formula as before of " The High 
 Priest and the Confederation of the Jews." One very rare type of his reign 
 also bears the design of the seven-branched candlestick, which was taken by 
 Titus, Emperor of Rome, from the Temple of Herod, and was borne in his 
 triumph before him, as represented on the arch of Titus. 
 
 (II.) Idumaean or Herodian Princes. The founder of this race was 
 Antipater, but the first of its members who bore regal power was the 
 notorious Herod the Great, who had (among his ten wives) married Mariamne, 
 the daughter of the Asmonaean Alexander II. Having regard to Herod's 
 phil-Hellenic tendencies, it is not surprising to find that on his coins are Greek 
 inscriptions only. During his reign and thenceforth, with the exceptions of 
 the periods during the two Jewish revolts, only copper pieces were coined by 
 Jewish princes. It is clear, however, that probably Roman denarii and Greek 
 gold staters and silver pieces from time to time formed a portion of the 
 currency of the land. 
 
 The devices on Herod's coins consist of vessels and tripods, probably in 
 the nature of incense-burners, the pomegranate, the anchor, double cornu- 
 copiae, helmets and other ornamental designs. The inscription is BAZIAEOZ 
 H POAOY (of the King Herod), and on one rare piece is the monogram -R 
 (for Tpt^aX<ccoi'), which is another instance in addition to those already known 
 in which the Christian monogram had, in a different signification, a pre- 
 Christian origin. 
 
 The other Herodian princes who coined money were his sons Archelaus 
 Antipas and Philip II. and the kings Agrippa I. and Agrippa II., the son 
 and grandson respectively of Aristobulus, another son of Herod. Of Aristo- 
 bulus we do not appear to have any numismatic record, and of ah 1 the others 
 mentioned, the corns have Greek inscriptions and Greek characters only. 
 
 Herod Archelaus, son and successor of Herod the Great, is on the few 
 coins existing which can be attributed to him, denominated HP or WHP, 
 clearly showing that he bore the same name as his father. He is the only 
 Herodian prince, also, who and whose coins bear the title of Ethnarch 
 (G0NAPXOY). His brother Antipas was in like manner styled on his coins 
 TETPAPXOS (Tetrarch), and on these also his name appears as Herod. 
 Many of these pieces were struck by the last-named prince at Tiberias, a city 
 which had been built by him in honour of the Emperor Tiberius. Philip II., 
 another brother, also coined as Tetrarch, and his pieces bear the heads of the
 
 Introduction. 155 
 
 Emperors Augustus [and Tiberius successively. A very rare piece of this 
 reign is among the coins exhibited by Rev. Dr. Wright. It bears on the 
 reverse the design of a Tetra-style temple, with the date L. IB. (year 12). 
 Herod Agrippa I. coined as king (BAZIAEYZ), with and without the busts 
 and titles of the Eoman Emperors Caligula and Claudius, under whose auspices 
 lie exercised his sway. Agrippa II., also, coined under the same title, with 
 and without the busts and titles of the Emperors, who in his time were Nero, 
 Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian. 
 
 (III.) Coins of the Eoman Procurators of Judaea. These were struck in 
 copper only, and always with Greek inscriptions and letters. The devices are 
 the ear of corn, palm-tree, cornu-copiae diota or amphora (a two-handled 
 vessel for wine, &c.), triple lily, lituus, or other ornamental designs. No re- 
 presentation was used which could be in any way offensive to Jewish ideas or 
 customs, and therefore no images or symbols of living things occur as emblems, 
 and in fact this forbearance on the part of the Prociirators was carried further 
 than by the later Herodian princes, as no coin is known of the former on 
 which even the head of the reigning Emperor of Rome appears. The differ- 
 ence on this point between the two sets of rulers may be well explained by 
 the studious servility of the princes in question on the one hand, and the no 
 doubt stringent instructions on the other hand given from head quarters to the 
 Procurators to avoid anything which might wound the susceptibilities of the 
 people over whom they had so much difficulty otherwise in peaceably estab- 
 lishing their rule. This rule, however, became in other respects of so tyran- 
 nical a character as to have ultimately led to the active revolt of the Jews. 
 
 The following is a list of the Procurators dating from A.M. 3766-3826 
 (A.D. 6-66), i.e. during the reigns of the Emperors Augustus, Tiberius, 
 Claudius and Nero. 
 
 (1.) Coponius. 
 (2.) Marcus Ambivius. 
 (3.) Annius Rufus. 
 (4.) Valerius Gratus. 
 (5.) Pontius Pilate. 
 (6.) Marcellus. 
 (7.) Marullus. 
 (8.) Cuspius Fadus. 
 (9.) Tiberius Alexander. 
 (10.) Ventidius Cumanus. 
 (11.) Claudius or Antonius Felix. 
 (12.) Porcius Festus. 
 (13.) Albinus, and 
 (14.) Gessius Florus. 
 
 Coins (all in copper) are known only of the first five of these, and ot 
 Claudius Felix. Of the last-mentioned Procurator there is one coin which is 
 somewhat peculiar as bearing the name of the Emperor Nero on the obverse 
 and of his brother Britannicus on the reverse, as Caesars, i.e. heirs presump- 
 tive to the purple. There is one copper coin also which may be attributed, 
 though with some doubt, to the Procurator Marcus Ambivius. 
 
 (IV.) Coins struck under the First revolt of the Jews. Notwithstanding
 
 150 IV. Coins and Medals. 
 
 my expressed intention not to introduce matters of controversy into these few 
 pages, it is well to admit that there is more contention as to what coins are to 
 be referred to the First Revolt under Eleazar and others, and which to the 
 Second Revolt under Simon Barcochab, than, perhaps, on any other subject 
 connected with Jewish numismatics. Although there are many points of 
 agreement, yet as to others there may never be any certain mode of final 
 determination where, as Mr. Madden rightly observes, " there is so little to 
 guide, so much to guess." 
 
 The First Revolt lasted four years, and I prefer on the whole to adopt the; 
 attributions of Dr. Levy and of Mr. Madden in respect of this period. On 
 this basis, coins are known of Eleazar the Priest, son of Simon, in silver, 
 which bear the device of a vase and a bunch of grapes, and on which he is 
 styled jHian "IT177N (Eleazar the Priest), and the reverse inscription of 
 which is hK~\W> nbfcO? nnN JW (First year of the redemption of Israel). 
 Copper coins also occur with a bunch of grapes, as also the palm-tree, and 
 with legends similar to those on the silver pieces. One rare silver com, the 
 authenticity of which was at one time under some suspicion, has the name 
 of Eleazar on one side and that of Simon on the other. 
 
 Simon Nasi (N^S, prince) the son of Gamaliel, also coined money, and 
 bore the title referred to, with the authority of the Sanhedrin, on his coins, 
 which occur only in copper, and are similarly inscribed to those of his pre- 
 decessor. The devices are those of the vase, the palm-tree, vine-leaf, lyre, 
 and other ornamental designs. The inscriptions on the coins of both Eleazar 
 and Simon are in old Hebrew characters, but slightly varying in formation 
 from those on the pieces of the Asmonaean princes. There is one fine and 
 rare silver shekel, probably belonging to this period, which has on the obverse 
 a representation of the Beautiful Gate of the Temple, with the inscription 
 D7BMT and on the reverse the Ethrog and Lulab (citron and palm-branch), 
 and the same inscription as on Eleazar's silver pieces. 
 
 (V.) The coins struck in Rome commemorating the capture of Jerusalem 
 are those with the well-known legends of IVD/EA, IVDXEA CAPTA, 
 JVD/EA DEVICTA, &c., and more properly belong to the province of 
 Roman numismatics. It will suffice to state that they were struck in gold, 
 .silver, and brass, under Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian, and have the head 
 of the Emperor on the obverse, and generally Judaea, mourning, seated under 
 a palm-tree, on the reverse. Trophies and other accompaniments sometimes 
 vary the design. Those struck in Palestine by the Roman Emperors to com- 
 memorate the same event mostly bear Greek inscriptions, and have generally 
 on the reverse the legend IOYAAIAZ EAAIOKYI'AZ (Judaea Captured). 
 Some, however, coined by Domitian, have Latin legends in the more usual 
 Roman style. 
 
 (VI.) Coins struck during the Second Revolt of the Jews under the 
 Roman Emperor Nerva, great indulgence was shown to the Jews, and the 
 abuses connected with the collection of the special tax levied upon them were 
 abolished. In commemoration of this concession, a large brass Roman coin 
 has on the reverse apalm-tree and the legend FISCI IVDAICI CALVMNIA 
 SVBLATA. During the reign of his successor Trajan, however, the chosen 
 people again revolted, and the insurrection was quelled with great difficulty
 
 Introduction. 157 
 
 and only after much bloodshed on both sides. On Hadrian's accession he 
 meditated rebuilding Jerusalem under the name of Aelia, and of dedicating 
 the temple to Jupiter Capitolinus. He also promulgated stricter laws against 
 the Jews, who once more burst into revolt under the leadership of Simon 
 Barcochab (i.e. son of a star). It was during this revolt that the famous- 
 llabbi Akiba, a zealous advocate of Simon, perished at the hands of the 
 llomans, exclaiming while being torn into pieces Avith red-hot pincers, " Hear, 
 O Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord is One." 
 
 Simon issued coins with the old Hebrew characters, both in silver and 
 copper. His silver shekels of the 1st and 2nd year are very rare, and both 
 have the name of jIUOB' (Simon) on the obverse, with a representation, 
 somewhat conventional in its form, of the Beautiful Gate of the Temple, and 
 on the reverse an Ethrog and Lulab and DPE^IT niin? (The Deliverance of 
 Jerusalem). A rare shekel of the 2nd year exhibited in the collection of 
 the Rev. Churchill Babington has on the obverse a much more elaborate 
 representation of the Beautiful Gate with the inscription D7B>'I"V. 
 
 Simon's smaller silver coins are of numerous types, and were most often 
 struck over denarii of Trajan and other Emperors. They have his name 
 sometimes with and sometimes without a bunch of grapes on the obverse, 
 and the design of a vase, lyre, palm-branch or two trumpets, with the usual 
 legend " The Deliverance of Jerusalem " on the reverse. His copper pieces 
 are of various sizes ; the larger ones with the palm-tree and his name on the 
 obverse, and a vine-leaf and " The Deliverance, &c.," on the reverse, the 
 smaller with the same or similar inscriptions, and with varied designs of the 
 palm-tree or branch, lyre, bunch of grapes, vase, &c. 
 
 After Simon's death, which took place on the capture of Bethar, Hadrian 
 carried out his design of building a new city on the site of Jerusalem, and 
 which thenceforth was called Aelia Capitolina, and became a Eoman Colony, 
 The Jews were practically excluded from the City, which issued its coins in 
 the way usual among the Eoman Colonies of the period. 
 
 The record of Jewish numismatics, pure and simple, may therefore be 
 said to end here, and it will be perceived that the series of coins described is 
 not a very long one. It may be added that, however interesting they may be 
 from an historical point of view, the Jewish coins are, with one or two. 
 exceptions, far from being of artistic worth, and are generally (particularly in 
 the case of the copper pieces) in an inferior state of preservation. The want 
 of artistic design may with justice be attributed to the national objection 
 against any representation of living forms or symbols, and which extended 
 even to the representation of the head or bust of the reigning prince, a rule 1 
 which was infringed only by the later Herodian Princes. A similar objection 
 to the bust of the reigning authority appearing on the coins, but founded 
 upon very different grounds, existed among all the ancient Greek nations 
 until after Alexander's time, but the heads of divinities supplied instead in 
 their case ample material for the artistic talents of Greek die engravers 
 whose skill at the highest period of their art has never been surpassed, or 
 even equalled to this day. 
 
 In conclusion, I will only warn my readers against the numerous counter- 
 feits of Jewish coins which exist, and on most of which the legends are, as-

 before stated, in square Hebrew characters, which never occur on genuine 
 pieces, and which afford most certain proof of forgery. One specimen of 
 such a forgery is among the pieces exhibited by myself, and is of such a 
 nature as hardly to be capable of deceiving the merest tyro in numismatic 
 science.

 Asher Lemlein, a fanatical German Jew living about 1500,

 advent of the Messiah in 1503. Becoming aware of his 
 having prefixed too short a time for his prophecies, he 
 stated in excuse that the people's sins had retarded the 
 appearance of the Deliverer. He had many ardent 
 supporters, and to one of these of the family del 
 Piatelli the production of this medal is attributed. The 
 medal has a portrait, presumed to be that of the pretender 
 himself, and is surrounded by a long Hebrew inscription, 
 in which the initial letters of the words give, in the form 
 of an acrostic, the name of "Benjamin, the son of Eli 
 Beer," the particular member of the dei Piatelli to 
 whom the production of this medal is ascribed. The 
 reverse has an inscription in Latin of similar import to 
 that on the obverse, and the date D. Ill . M . (1503).
