First Time
Eighteen adult Jews, members of a Bible class at Temple Israel, near Far Rockaway, L. I., last week began an organized study of the New Testament. "This is the first time," said Dr. Isaac Landman, rabbi of Temple Israel and editor of The American Hebrew, "that a class in the Bible school of a Reform congregation has ever been devoted to the exclusive teaching of the New Testament. The time has come when the New Testament should no longer be a closed book to the Jews."
