| & - DELIVER SERMON ON THE “RELIGION OF JESUS AND JU. DAISM” AT JEWISH TEMPLE Some (?ontroverff'ery Arises Over Declarations of Rabbi Stephens 8. Wise in New York Opinion among‘;“‘ Jewish people differs as to the 'statement made by Habbi Stephen 8. Wise of New York in his sermon lagt Sunday in which he gaid that Jews, should accept Jesus as a great moral ‘and ethical teacher.

- Rabbi Julius Mark in a sermon at the Ligonier Jewish Temple Christmas evening on “The Religion: of Jesus and Judaism’ declared that all liberal Jews belier« that persecution in Jesus’ name is a defamation of his beautiful character and contary to everything that He taught and preached. !

“They -gladly acclaim and take to their bosom . Jesps . the- man the champion of the poor and the oppressed, the sympathizer with ihe outcast and downeast of society but reject Jesus the Messiah, “the- only begotten Son of God” for Judaismgtcaches that all men are God’s children and” all whether gentile or Jew are equally beloved by Him,” Rabbi Mark declared, ) S

Rabbi Mark declared that nothing which Rabbi Wise said was =zensational or startlingly »ow,. He merely voiced the view of Jesus that has been uttered by living Jewish rabbis for hundreds of years Rabbi Mark declared. :

“From the point of view of these rabbis” Rabbi Mark said, “Jesus was in every respect a Jew. All his teachings were echoes of Israel’s fair for 1,000 years b_eif})re him. The “Sermon on the Mount? is 4a beautiful state ment of what was %ught by the rabbis and sages fro fighe_‘time of Moses. Jesus lived a Jer :%ldled a Jew at {he ‘hands. of Hf TN LE “THqMgtors:

“True the Jews rarely spoke about Jesus for nearly 2,000 years, but that was because His name became associated in their minds with persecution killing exile forcible conversion. Even to this day orthodox Jews mindful of this black night of pain are averse to speaking of him. This explaing why the Misrachi the orthodox group in Zionism have demanded that Rabbi Wise resign his office as chairman of the United Palestine appeal.
