Description

A letter written in New York City on Sunday, likely in February 1854, discussing a sermon by Kalischer on Talmudic study. The author, Rabbi Mewlel Goldschmit, refutes Kalischer's "Reform" views on the authority of Oral Law and mentions Leeser's previous refutation in the Occident. The letter also expresses concern that Reform is a threat to the Jewish people. A link to the relevant pages in the Occident is included.
