A waiting a Jewish Moody,

When the Jewish Moody becomes known, we shall have revivals having the Jewish spirit and encouraging a warm devotionrto the ancient faith, in which the woman’s council and the Hebrew associations will be conspicuous. There is nothing in the physique of the average Jew that prevents his growing enthusiastic in religion as well as in art or politics; he merely awaits the man and the opportunity. The true Jew is not indifferent. Given the occasion. and he will promptly display his warmth of spirit. We can well picture the crowds of excited worshipers hailing the words of Isaiah or Joel, who, before the approach of these prophets, showed little interest in things spiritual. And in some respects Moody may be called the Isaiah of today.—Jewish Messenger.
