The earliest translation to English of the Jewish Prayer-book. This comprehensive, and occasionally rather critical, study of Jewish life and practices is dominated by the first English translation of any part of the Siddur, the definitive Jewish prayer-book. Translated by Abraham Mears (under the pseudonym of Gamaleil Ben Pedahzur, according to Roth), an apostate member of the English Ashkenazi community, it was intended as an exposition of Judaism rather than a service book, but in providing phonetic translations of the Hebrew title of each prayer Mears explicitly promotes its use 'to Beginners in the Hebrew Tongue' and 'all Persons that resort to the Synagogues'. The transliterated Hebrew title for each prayer is found in the margins, enabling the curious non-Hebrew reading Christian to attend and follow a synagogue service. The transliteration of the Hebrew characters provides a clue as to how Hebrew was pronounced in the eighteenth-century Ashkenazi community of London. The book was not intended for liturgical use, but rather for scholarly readership, so it is not in effect a prayer-book. It reflects the growing interest in Judaism on the part of non-Jewish Englishmen of the eighteenth century. First edition, 8vo (20.5 x 13 cm); xiv, 96; 291, [7] pp.; modern blue cloth boards; first and last leaf restored with some marginal loss of text; edges stained, corners rubbed.

First Edition. Large 4to, pp. [2 (blank)], [14], 386, [2 (colophon, blank)], with loosely inserted Supplement showing Variants in the Prayer Book of the American Church (pp. viii, uncut); printed in red and black throughout with numerous historiated woodcut borders and initials; small stain to lower margin of first leaves, otherwise clean throughout; in the publisher's gilt purple cloth, arms of Canterbury, Westminster and London blocked in gilt and colour to upper board, top-edge gilt, others uncut, glazed blue endpapers embossed with lions rampant; spine very slightly sunned, but an excellent copy.Authorised American edition of the Essex House Press Book of Common Prayer, published in celebration of the accession of Edward VII. The title is framed within scenes of London and Westminster and faced by a woodcut of Edward VII enthroned on the Coronation Chair in Westminster Abbey, surrounded by portraits his six predecessors of the same name (with Edward IV standing in front of Caxton's press, one of the notable developments of his reign). The following pages are littered with woodcuts and initials, including not only Biblical scenes but also portraits of British monarchs, a procession of notable figures in English history (from St Alban to the nineteenth century), and a group of figures consulting books in a chained library. The Prayer Book of Edward VII, designed by C.R. Ashbee of the Essex House Press, was first printed in England and here reprinted despite its at-times heavily Anglocentric illustrations in the United States. A loosely inserted Supplement showing Variants from the Prayer Book of the Church of England in the Prayer Book of the American Church includes a large initial with a portrait of Theodore Roosev elt.

16 pp. 8vo. 16 pp. 8vo. An adaptation of Reasons for which the Service Booke, Urged upon Scotland Ought to bee Refused (1638), a work published in response to the controversial introduction of the Book of Common Prayer in Scotland. Charles I commissioned the Scotch version and made it mandatory in an attempt to standardize the patchwork Church of Scotland and bring it in line with the monarch-friendly Church of England - it was so poorly received that it led to riots, the emergence of the Scotch Covenanter movement, the Bishops' Wars, and ultimately Charles's own execution. This title appeared c.1714 and in 1726 alongside further controversies in the Church of Scotland over conformity and the use of the Book of Common Prayer. Its publication also coincides with the 1713 and 1723 London printings of A Letter to the People of Scotland in Order to Remove Their Prejudice to the Book of Common Prayer. William R. Whittingham (1805-1879) graduated the General Theological Seminary in 1825 and was named librarian of the newly founded school. He later accepted a position on the faculty in 1836. Whittingham was consecrated the fourth Bishop of Maryland in 1840 and served in that capacity until his death. Bishop Whittingham's important theological library became the core of the Maryland Diocese library, which was in turn transferred to the General Theological Seminary. Excepting this copy, OCLC locates 4 copies, 1 outside the United Kingdom (Morgan Library). ESTC N471916 Disbound, closely trimmed. Leaves separated and lightly edgeworn, some toning and light soiling, perforated stamps to first and final leaves. Housed in red cloth slipcase and wrapper. Provenance: William R.
