A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The greatest theme ever presented to man is the subject of this hook. This is the reason why it takes so deep a hold of the understanding and the heart. It is one thing to soar with Milton into tlie highest realms of poetic fiction (for what is Paradise Lost but a fiction a parody on the Word of God) and quite, another, with a less vivid imagination, and a faculty by no means inventive, to speak of Tkuth as it is ;and to follow it as delineated in the Book of Truth. I need not designate the theme. It is that of the coming, or first advent of the Jewish Messiah to our world. All the events of our world are as nothing to this ;all that history unfolds pales before the splendor of this event. This gives to the Jewish nation a place in our world superior to that of any or all the kingdoms of the world combined. These do but revolve around it, and minister to its greatness, and reflect its luster as tho planets in their turn revolve around the sun. In the history of the past, we find that the four great universal empires, both in their rise and fall, were all more or less dependent upon the Jewish nation; and were subordinated by God in bringing to pass those results which were essential to the introduction of Christ into the world. With all their wide celebrity, and vast influence for the time upon human afl Uirs they were so to speak, but as the fly on the wheel, so far as the ultimate destiny of mankind was concerned.
