""Letters of Certain Jews to Monsieur Voltaire: Containing an Apology for Their Own People and for the Old Testament"" is a book written by Phillip Lefanu. The book is a collection of letters written by Jewish scholars to the famous French writer and philosopher, Voltaire. The letters are written in response to Voltaire's criticisms of Judaism and the Old Testament in his writings. The letters provide a defense of Judaism and the Old Testament, addressing the criticisms raised by Voltaire. The authors of the letters argue that Judaism is a religion of reason and morality, and that the Old Testament contains valuable lessons for humanity.
