Moses Ben Isaac Edrehi Historical Account of the Ten Tribes, Settled Beyond the River Sambatyon in the East

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. With respect to the religious Observances, as regards their ceremony, &c., nothing has been noticed by any but our Author. It is supposed that those learned historians were contented to prove the existence of such nations, without paying any particular regard to their religious ceremonies: in this case our Author has been more explicit, as will appear in this Work; and the particulars he mentions, certainly carry something with them of an authentic appearance. His last statement bears date, Anno Mundi 5388, corresponding with 1628. The list of the authors and writers upon this subject will appear at the end of this Work, which are known to the lite rary and learned of the Public, sacred and profane, which will be a great advantage to the religious world, as well as infinite satisfaction and pleasure to the Author.
