First edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo. 12 pages; 21 cm. Very early (1941) use of the term saving remnant to describe what would be left of Jewry following the unfolding Holocaust in Europe, a reference to Genesis 45: 7, sometimes translated as: God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant in the earth, and to keep you alive by a great deliverance. Holocaust-era speech delivered by Dr. Israel Goldstein, rabbi and president of the JNF, encouraging donations to expand settlements in Palestine to make room for WWII refugees when the war ends. What a great privilege, and what a tremendous responsibility is ours-ours, Oh, American Israel-to lay broad foundations for our peoples future! It is our responsibility because it is our good fortune, by grace of numbers, security and wealth, to be the saving remnant of our people. Presented just after the death of Louis D. Brandeis, Goldstein also reviews the accomplishments of the JNF over its 40 year history. Encourages SUBJECT(S) : Zionism, Jewish National Fund. OCLC lists 1 holding worldwide (Univ of Minnesota) .
