“THE GLORY OF JEHUDAH AND ISRAEL――DE HEERLICHKEYDT ...
VAN JEHUDA EN ISRAEL,” BY HENRY JESSE.
THE Glory of Jehudah and Israel is referred to in the concluding
paragraph of “The Humble Addresses.”
Manasseh Ben Israel writes:――
“... Now, having prooved the two former Points, I could adde a third,
viz. of the Nobility of the Iewes: but because that Point is enough
known amongst all Christians, as lately yet it hath bene most worthily
and excellently shewed and described in a certain Booke, called, _The
Glory of Iehudah and Israel_, dedicated to our Nation by that worthy
Christian Minister Mr. Henry Iessey, (1653. in Dutch) where this matter
is set out at large:...”
“The Life and Death Of Mʳ Henry Jessey,” page 79: “... Mr. H. J.
seconded his Almes with divers Consolatory Letters to the dispersed
seed of _Jacob_, having before in 1650. wrote a compleat Treatise yet
extant, and called (the glory & Salvation of _Jehudah_, and _Israel_)
tending towards the reconciliation of _Jews_ and _Christians_,...”
J. C. Wolf, in his _Bibliothecæ Hebræae_, 1733, vol. iv., _p._ 901,
in his biography of Manasseh Ben Israel, incidentally refers to “De
Heerlickheid en heyl van Jehuda en Israel” written in Flemish (Belgice)
by Henr. Jesse.
It is apparently very rare, the only copy that has been traced is
mentioned in “Catalogue De La Bibliothèque de literature hebraique et
orientale et d’Auteurs hebreux De Feu Mʳ Leon V. Saraval Trieste ...
1853.”¹ [I. S.]
Nᵒ. 619 “JESSE HENRY de Heerlichkeydt en Heyl van Jehuda en Israel
(en langue flamande, traduit de l’anglais.) Amst. 1653 in 8º ...
tres-rare....”
¹ In 1853 the Saraval library was purchased for the Breslau
Jewish Theological seminary.
