Faith Strengthened (Chizzuk Emunah)

Faith Strengthened (Chizzuk Emunah)

Abstract From The Author's Preface My religious zeal was aroused, on finding that the name of the Supreme Being was dishonored, and our Holy Law profaned, by the very people who had been appointed to be the guardians of faith and the witnesses of those grand truths which make the simple man wise, the sorrowing heart glad; and the dim eyes bright.
