Judea; and as to the person from whom it was received, viz. Christ; who by the further agreement of both, died on the cross. The other fact is, that so far the evangelists must be acknowledged by the enemies of the Gospel, not only to have told the truth, but to have been accurate in the statement of facts. Having ascertained these general, but highly important points, as to the origin of the Gospel, it is fit that we make some inquiry into the state of things which then existed. We shall hence learn, whether the professions of those among whom the Gospel was preached, were for or against it. This question ought first to be considered, as it relates to the Jews, and then as it relates to the Gentiles. 1. As to the Jews. They were, it is true, ...
