The Coat of Arms and the Candlestick

Among many interesting literary heralds of the dawn of the coming great Day of the LORD is the publication Jerusalem, with which no doubt many of our readers are already acquainted. It is one of the organs of the Jewish Christian Community, and is published monthly by “Patmos,” Westcliff-on-Sea; communications to be addressed to The Secretary, Jewish Christian Community, 17 Higham Road, Tottenham, London, N.17. “Subscribers are free to contribute whatever they feel prompted to give.” The Community also publishes monthly organs, and holds Conferences and Bible Courses, in Germany, Switzerland and France. The address of the Jewish Christian Community in Jerusalem is: P.O. Box 1353, Jerusalem, Israel.

A copy of the July/August issue has been kindly lent to us by our colleague, F. E. Mitchell, and by permission of the publishers we reproduce with grateful acknowledgments, the following extracts which we believe will be of interest to our readers.

The first two are from the section, News From Israel.
