"The Crucifixion, Viewed from a Jewish Viewpoint" - A Lecture delivered before the Chicago Institute for Morals, Religion and Letters - 1892
The involvement of the Jewish people in the crucifixion of Jesus has been the subject of much scholarly discussion over the ages.

Emil Gustav Hirsch (May 22, 1852 – January 7, 1923) was a major Reform movement rabbi in the United States. For forty-two years (1880-1923), Hirsch served as the rabbi of Chicago Sinai Congregation, one of the oldest synagogues in the mid-west. At this post, he became well-known for an emphasis on social justice. From Chicago Sinai's pulpit, he delivered rousing sermons on the social ills of the day and many Chicagoans, Jew and Gentile alike, were in attendance. [Wikipedia]
