Excerpt from The Industrious Apprentice: A Sermon Preached at the Great Synagogue, on Sabbath, December 10th, 1887

For this purpose no more instructive example could be chosen than the history of Joseph. Every line, nay, every word, that Holy Writ tells us about him is fraught with admonition to our young men during that most critical period in their career, when they are thrown, ofttimes single handed, upon this huge city, wherein competition in every pursuit and calling is so fierce; where their daily path is beset by so many terrible temp tations. I would select only a few salient pointsin Joseph's career. Is it not marvellous, almost incomprehensible that this raw, inexperienced, and petted lad, should within thirteen years after he had left his father's house, have become Prime Minister of Pharaoh and Viceroy Of Egypt? The key to the enigma is furnished us in the words of our text: And the Lord was with Joseph, and he became a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master, the Egyptian.
