About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed.

Even yet, the hope of a M. is not dead in the hearts of the strict Talmudistic Jews. The crucial question of theology, however, is not the form in which the doctrine (so to speak) of the M. was held by the Jews. All rational students of Scripture, whether 'orthodox' or 'heterodox, ' now admit that its growth was gradual, and that it acquired precision and detiniteness of outline in the course of ages from its first rude phase, among the pastoral princes of the Syrian wilderness, down to that sublime, yet shadowy personality--the Man of Sorrows--that continually floats before the vision of the ' Younger Isaiah.'
