Title: Pochemy Evrei Ne Veriat V Iisusa Khrista? (Why the Jews Do Not Believe in Jesus Christ?)

In Russian, with notes in Yiddish. After the Jewish pogroms in the southern provinces of the Russian Empire in the second half of the 19th century, the group 'The Israelites of the New Covenant' under the leadership of Joseph Rabinovich (1837-1899) was founded. He would forge a relationship with Baptists in the region, who had just started gaining influence in Bessarabia. Possibly influenced by the Baptists and despite angering a big number of Jews, Rabinovich worked hard to convince the Jews that Christ was the way, truth, and life for Jews as well as for Gentiles. His work was continued by his close associate, the author of the current pamphlet Lev Averbukh, who would found the Kishinev United Community of the Evangelical Christian Baptists and Jews-Christians and would become its pastor. His present work was a continuation to his efforts, attempting to comment on and answer the question of why Jews do not believe in Jesus Christ. Ill.: 0. 2.
