About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos or missing text. Not indexed. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1829. Not illustrated.

Now, having examined the passages of Scripture on which Mr Faber rests this argument, I observe that, in so far as these passages refer to events which were prior to the incarnation, they are altogether inconclusive; and in order to show that this is the case, I shall endeavour to reduce Mr Faber's arguments from some of those passages into the form of a syllogism. The learned author reasons substantially as follows: -- Sacr. Cal. vol. III. p. 424--466. " In certain passages of the Old Testament, as Is. xiii. 1--5. xix. 1. xxx. 27--33. Jehovah, Not Yet Incarnate, is said to come from a far country, or to ride upon a swift cloud, or the name of the Lord to come from far burning with his anger. " These ex...
