Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Israel's Mission to Oliver Cromwell is a historical account of the Jewish emissary Menasseh ben Israel's efforts to secure the readmission of Jews to England in the 17th century. The book recounts Menasseh's journey from Amsterdam to London in 1655, where he met with Cromwell and other prominent figures to argue for the rights of Jews to live and worship in England. The book provides insight into the political and religious climate of the time, as well as the challenges faced by Jewish communities throughout Europe. It also explores Menasseh's personal journey as a prominent Jewish leader and scholar, and his efforts to promote Jewish learning and culture. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Jewish history, the history of England, or the intersection of religion and politics in the 17th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
