The late Jacob Abraham Franklin bequeathed by Will to five Trustees the sum of Five Thousand Pounds for the promotion of certain objects in connexion with the Advancement of Judaism.
One of these objects was the publication of religious treatises and text-books.
The Trustees, believing the present work to be in accord with the views of the benevolent Testator, defray the cost of its publication.
