Pre-Civil War Newspaper Featuring Controversial Rabbi on Slavery

Item Details

Description

Pre-Civil War Newspaper Featuring Controversial Rabbi on Slavery

An issue of the New-York Tribune, Vol. XX, No. 6157, 8pp, 16.25” x 21.25”, New York, January 18, 1861. Archival repair to page 7; chipping to left edge; light toning; else, in very good plus condition.

The highlight of this issue can be found on the back page. Headed, “Dr. Raphall's Bible View of Slavery”, it begins, “The room of the Historical Society was about two-thirds filled last evening with an audience curious to hear a Pro-Slavery Jewish Rabbi expound to them the principles of Christianity, and attempt to prove from the Sacred Word that the Savior sanctioned Slavery…Dr. Raphall is a stoutly built, almost portly man, with a round face and white whisker. He looked through very large glasses, and wore the close cap peculiar to his persuasion. His discourse was a repetition of the one delivered on Fast Day.” Rabbi Raphall's original sermon, given on the President's Fast Day on January 4th, was considered controversial, as he cites acceptance of slavery in the Old Testament as a defense for it in current times.

Morris Jacob Raphall (1798-1868) was a rabbi and author born in Stockholm, Sweden. From 1849 until his death, he resided in the United States. He is most remembered for having declared, on the eve of the Civil War, that the Bible endorses slavery.

The New-York Tribune was an American newspaper founded in 1841 by editor Horace Greeley, created with the goal of providing a straightforward, trustworthy media source. The paper achieved a circulation of approximately 200,000 in the 1850s, making it the largest daily paper in New York City at the time. The Tribune's editorials were widely read, shared, and copied in other city newspapers, helping to shape national opinion. It was one of the first papers in the north to send reporters, correspondents, and illustrators to cover the campaigns of the American Civil War. It continued as an independent daily newspaper until 1924, when it merged with the New York Herald. The resulting New York Herald Tribune remained in publication until 1966.
