Proclamation against English Missionary Activities – Jerusalem, 1893
Kol Nehi Nishma B'Zion, printed proclamation to "Our brothers in the Diaspora" by Jerusalem Rabbis, concerning English missionary activities. Jerusalem, 1893. Signatures (printed) of about 20 Jerusalem Rabbis. Stamps of the "Knesset Israel Committee" and the "Badatz of the Ashkenazi Community" (Pharisees).
"…A fire was ignited in Zion by a band of missionaries, consuming the foundations of the Torah". In the proclamation, the Jerusalem Rabbis warn not to believe the false rumor spread in Russia, according to which those immigrating to Eretz Israel will receive a free plot of land. Following this rumor, needy Jewish families - "refugees of Russia" - came to Jerusalem. The proclamation further states details of the English missionary activities in Jerusalem and of Jews who have already fallen into their trap and the efforts to save them.
Proclamation, 37 cm. Fair condition. Tears (with damage to text), filing holes, wear stains and folding marks. Mounted on Bristol.
