PROSPECTUS OR ADDRESS. THE author having in his possession an elegant MS. copy of the Liturgy of the Church of England, in Hebrew, of unquestionable merit, originally done for a Society of converted Jews, founded by WILLIAM WAINFLEETE, Bishop of Winchester, and founder of Magdalen College, Oxford, is desirous that such a learned work should be published, not only as a literary curiosity, but also as a most interesting article at the present period, when the Book of Common Prayer of the Church of England is appearing in so many and various languages of Europe and Asia, that a pure Hebrew Version of it, so long wanting, should now be supplied, both as a useful help to students of Theology, desirous of attaining a more perfect knowledge of the Hebrew tongue: and also in regard of its very probable benefit in producing in the minds of the more learned`` amongst the Jews a more liberal opinion of the Christian Church, and particularly of the Church of England, whose Doctrines, and other Rites and Ceremonies, they may be the better enabled to inquire into and examine for themselves; and, by the Divine blessing, be the more readily disposed to embrace the Christian Faith. Should this proposal meet with the approbation and support of the learned, sufficient to defray the expense of the undertaking, the author intends to deposit the original Copy in some public Library, for any future purposes.
