A Defence of the Old Testament, in a Series of Letters to Thomas Paine A Defence of the Old Testament, in a Series of Letters to Thomas Paine

This is a second edition of David Levi's response to Thomas Paine's *Age of Reason*. Published in 1798 in New York City, it is notable as one of the first books by a Jewish author sold by a Jewish bookseller in America. Levi's work directly refutes Paine's criticisms of the Old Testament, offering a reasoned defense of biblical texts and religious faith. The book includes a list of subscribers, primarily from Pennsylvania, none of whom appear to be Jewish. This edition is a reprint of the first edition, which was published in London in 1797.
