Grace After Meals for Messianic Jews. What commences as a traditional Aschkenazic Grace After Meals (ff. 2-6), is followed by a Christological version of the same (ff. 7-10). In the appended tract (“Quid obstet iudaeis quo minus credant”), the Author contends that what prevents Jews from accepting Christianity is the thorough social ostracism that is the fate of the apostate Jew.
According to a note written by Mehlman in the NLI copy of this work: "but one other copy is known to exist."
