OverviewExcerpt from Chapters on Jewish Literature These twenty-five short chapters on Jewish Literature open with the fall of Jerusalem in the year 70 of the current era, and end with the death of Moses Mendels sohn in I 786. Thus the period covered extends over more than seventeen cen turies. Yet, long as this period is, it is too brief. To do justice to the literature of Judaism even in outline, it is clearly neces sary to include the Bible, the Apocrypha, and the writings of Alexandrian Jews, such as Philo. Only by such an inclusion can the genius of the Hebrew people be traced from its early manifestations through its inspired prime to its brilliant after-glow in the centuries with which this little vol ume deals.
