Description		    Aaron Hahn was rabbi of Tifereth Israel Congregation in Cleveland from 1874 to 1892. He presents here 8 arguments: cosmological, teleological, ontological, moral, historical, Jewish Theosophy, Christian, and Mohammedan. Bibliographical annotations.

Tifereth Israel was an important Reformed congregation in Cleveland. By 1879 the synagogue had an organ, choir, family pews, and bareheaded worship. Its early leaders were Isidor Kalisch, 1850-55; Wolf Fassbinder, 1855-57; Jacob Cohen, 1857-66; G. M. Cohen, 1866-1867; Jacob Mayer, 1867-74; and Aaron Hahn, 1874-92, who was succeeded by Moses J. Gries., the present incumbent, from 1892.
