Englands remonstrance. Or, a word in the ear to the scattered, discontented members of the late Parliament [[electronic resource] ] : Shewing, that self-seekers are self-losers; and that no member ought to feather his own nest, but freely permit every bird to enjoy his own feathers, and every honest man to sit under his own vine, and enjoy the fruits thereof. Likewise, a word to the present assembly at Westminster, and the councel of state at White Hall, in order to their present power, rule, government; and the peoples rights, liberties, and priviledges.

Sommario/riassunto

Demonstrates that there is a flourishing mythology in Judaism, which first emerges in the Bible and continues to evolve in all subsequent phases of Jewish literature and lore. This book identifies and collects nearly 700 of these primary Jewish myths. They are drawn from a range of sources including the Bible, and the Jewish apocryphal.
