The Jew and Human Sacrifice: Human Blood and Jewish Ritual, an Historical and Sociological Inquiry (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Jew and Human Sacrifice: Human Blood and Jewish Ritual, an Historical and Sociological InquiryI have occasion to be thankful for the success of this volume. Most of the journals which used formerly to talk about Jewish blood-ritual and Jewish ritual murder, have been for several months gradually exchanging those phrases for Jewish blood-murder, Jewish blood-supersti tion, avoiding direct reference to ritual. However, they still try to prove to their readers, that blood murder and cases of blood-superstition are peculiar to Judaism, and so they keep alive the idea that there must be something ritual behind it all.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
