Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1905 edition. Excerpt: .a new king sat upon the throne of the Pharaohs, one who knew not Joseph, who desired to alter the conditions under which the Jews had prospered. He determined that they should henceforth be subjected to cruel burdens, made to serve hard taskmasters, deprived of the civil rights of worship and the privileges theretofore exercised of erecting altars to their God. Their children were to be no longer permitted to bathe in public places. When allowed to learn anything, instruction was to be given in the Egyptian language, and, as the principle teaching of those days was for the purpose of inculcating reverence for the Egyptian gods, in whom the Jews did not believe, one will readily perceive that the enforcement of such a regulation was tantamount to consigning all the Jewish children to states of perpetual ignorance. No Jew was allowed to teach his own language, and most of them were not familiar with any other. Decrees were issued which forbade marriage between the two races. Real estate owned or occupied by Jews could not descend to their families, but upon death of the owners thereof escheated to the State. No Jew could thereafter hold any office of honor or profit. None could use any of the precious metals, gold or silver, nor gems of value, in the construction of their altars. Not one of the race was permitted to own or wear robes of silk or of material of finer texture than the ordinary simple garbs of common laborers. Those infirm, and from any cause unable to work, could not apply for the distribution of food in times of distress from the public granaries, which the unrequited labors of their race had filled. No Jew could ride in any public conveyance, nor could inscription upon banners relating to Jewish victories or other historical.<
