tarry thou till i come or salathiel the wandering jew

Book cover
The Wandering Jew is a figure from medieval Christian folklore whose legend began to spread in Europe in the thirteenth century. The original legend concerns a Jew who taunted Jesus on the way to the Crucifixion and was then cursed to walk the earth until the Second Coming. The exact nature of the wanderer's indiscretion varies in different versions of the tale, as do aspects of his character; sometimes he is said to be a shoemaker or other tradesman, sometimes he is the doorman at Pontius Pilate's estate. George Croly's "Salathiel", which appeared anonymously in 1828, treated the subject of The Wandering Jew in an imaginative form; it was reprinted under the title "Tarry Thou Till I Come". PLUS----there are L-O-A-D-S of BEAUTIFUL full-page illustrations!!
