Σελίδα 6 - Origen* has with singular sagacity observed, that "he who believes the Scripture to have proceeded from him who is the Author of nature, may well expect to find the same sort of difficulties in it as are found in the constitution of nature.
Σελίδα 309 - It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant To raise up the tribes of Jacob, And to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, That thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
Σελίδα 317 - And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the Lord shall lead thee.
Σελίδα 238 - Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
Σελίδα lix - It is come, I know not how, to be taken for granted, by many persons, that Christianity is not so much as a subject of inquiry ; but that it is, now at length, discovered to be fictitious. And accordingly they treat it, as if, in the present age, this were an agreed point among all people of discernment ; and nothing remained, but to set it up as a principal subject of mirth and ridicule, as it were by way of reprisals, for its having so long interrupted the pleasures of the world.

Σελίδα 305 - And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
Σελίδα 37 - But the only distinct meaning of that word is, stated, fixed, or settled: since what is natural as much requires, and presupposes an intelligent agent to render it so, ie to effect it continually, or at stated times, as what is supernatural or miraculous does to effect it for once. And from hence it must, follow, that persons...
