Foreward

Without hesitancy I say that Winning Jews to Christ by Dr. Jacob Gartenhaus is a storehouse of information concerning the Jewish people, their history as a peculiar people, the Jewish religion and their prayer life, the Jewish feasts and Jewish fasts, the Jewish laws and customs, the Jewish literature - and many other pertinent truths about this unique people. These truths which so few know and which all peoples should learn are set forth with a meticulous accuracy that gets and holds the attention of the reader - whether the reader be friend or foe of the Jews, whether he be one of average education or a scholar.

Reading this book one is made to think of a diver who goes repeatedly down into pearl beds and comes up with pearls filling both hands.
With attractive, yea, with entrancing language, Dr. Gartenhaus has made known to us truths about the Jewish people of which many have been ignorant. This book will bring informative blessing, refreshing inspiration, and an acknowledgment of our indebtedness to the Jewish people through whom came our Messiah and the Bible. The readers will find in it a gold mine of helpful suggestions on how to present to the Jew the “Good News” tactfully and efficiently, and how to refute his various objections, doctrinal and historical. This book ought to be in the library of all preachers in all pulpits and synagogues, of all teachers in all seminaries, and all colleges.

To fail or to refuse to read it is to rob one of that which enriches. I predict for this book a wide sale, a wide reading, and great usefulness.
