False Messiahs.
The defense of different persons j
claiming to l>e the Messiah has cost i
the Jews a great expense, both lu j
tie:, ure and human life. One ol' these, i
C'ozibn, wbo lived in the second century
of our era, put Fiimsoif at the "
head of the Jewish nnti >n as their
Messiah, and many of that people a.I- j
bored to and defended him. The Hohmns
made war upon Cozibn aiul his O
followers, and, according: to admissions yv
made by emineut Jewish authority, w
they lost somewhere lietween SOU,000 j .
and (KK?,0< ) men in his defense. The 1
last of these impostors was Mordecai, !
a German, who first claimed to be of , I-.
divine origin in the year 1GS2. \Y'lion
the authorities threatened to punish '
him as an in>i?>stor h tied, and Lis end

ipauiets strapped over my shoulders.
I'rom tlie middle of tills there rose a
