1st edition. Original green paper wrappers, 12mo, 56 pages. Singerman 4882. In his early days in the United States, Isaac Moses "was considered a radical Reformer, but later he took a more moderate position. In 1884 he introduced his own prayer book (Tefillat Yisrael). Moses was a founding member of the Central Conference of American Rabbis and a member of the Reform committee charged with compiling an official prayer book. The appearance of the Union Prayer Book in 1894 has been credited to his personal initiative in preparing and circulating a manuscript when the committee's work seemed to be leading nowhere. Moses also published a number of sermons and textbooks for children. His Sabbath School Hymnal, first issued in 1894, ran into 14 editions. While in Milwaukee, he edited the weekly Der Zeitgeist (1880-82). " (encyclopedia.com) In one of these sermons, Rabbi Moses discusses the evils that occurred in Egypt and then goes on to say, "Does not out civilization show the most alarming symptoms of the evils and the diseases of Egypt? We have fought for the emancipation of the negro, but the enslavement of the masses by our modern indutrial system threatens to become a plague worse than ever befell the birth-place of Moses.
