Description
This is actually a collection of 3 addresses, delivered in January and February 1913; they constitute Series 12, nos. 10, 11 and 13 of Sunday Lectures before Congregation Rodeph Shalom. The titles are “The Isle of Dreams,” “The Failure of Communism,” and “The Purpose of Socialism.” The subjects of the latter two are self-explanatory; in the first, Levy asserts that people are truly prosperous only when economic abundance is accompanied by the outpouring of “the holy spirit of God” (p.10).
Notes
- Series 12 has not been digitized in its entirety; these lectures were scanned and uploaded as a stand-alone item. A complete list of the lectures in Series 12 appears at the end of Series 13, no. 3.
- The title Reform Pulpit was added when a complete volume of lectures was published. Single lectures like this one were titled simply Sunday Lectures.
