Excerpt from The Jews of the United States, 1790-1840, Vol. 3 of 3: A Documentary History It is only fair to say that the eyes of this Society were fixed more on the Jews of Europe than on those of America. It was those European Jews who were already partly convinced of the superiority of the Christian religion who were to be brought to the United States, settled in a segregated colony, and there permitted to work out their economic salvation together with their eternal salvation. There is no suggestion in the literature of the American Society for Meliorating the Condition of the Jews that its leaders intended to devote any attention to their fellow Americans of the Jewish faith. Perhaps, it was their hope that the presence of a group of con verted Jews in this country would lead to the effortless winning of the Jews of America to Christianity. Perhaps the reason was that in the freer cultural climate of the United States they foresaw no difficulty in getting Christian literature into Jewish hands and minds, and therefore saw no need for making special provisions.
