Inaugural Sermon Delivered in the Temple of the Har Sinai-Verein, Baltimore, September 29th, 1855

This pamphlet contains the inaugural sermon delivered by Dr. David Einhorn at the Har Sinai-Verein temple in Baltimore, Maryland on September 29th, 1855. The sermon, originally in German, was translated into English by Dr. Abram B. Arnold. The pamphlet provides insight into the religious and possibly political climate of Baltimore's Jewish community in the mid-19th century. It also mentions Einhorn's later expulsion from Philadelphia in 1861 due to his pro-Union views during the Civil War and his subsequent rabbinical work in New York City.
