Yet the new is sorely a true revival of the old, expanded and developed, merging the middle one Into it and then all browning one. The whole world was oa one aide under Admit and Nueh.

I have even held that we Angio-8axona—men of the 1 tilde— are nearer the Jews in many re apecta, by our adopting their Hojy Writing* a* a living rule or daily kith, than auy other ancient or modem people. What is the Hebrew Common wealth 1 This is not to be conoid ered merely as an abstract question. It involves not only ill religion, Nhieh m the true rnrit of the whole Matter, but all law, government and fit; hi » word, everything that flues to make up w’jjU we call civil- isstion. I c.insider the march of Moses a* the grandest event in the history of the human race. Into it all previous knowledge aud civil isation flowed to aid In developing and rendering It perfect, and from •t has sprung forth all that was food, then and since, iu religion, government and social life. B«fore spooking, however, of this wonderful life—this marvellous mfcreh—I must speak of the mighty wmu who preceded him, and of the form and manner of religion as prac- boed by the patriarch*. KKLIOIOrS D1SPKS8ATIONH. , , We speak of the two dispensa tion*—the Hebrew and the Chris tian; we speak of the Mosaic law «■ distinct from that taught by our lord and his apostles; and we utter if ignore the long race of patriarchs from Adam to Abraham, or rather Moses, who worshipped God in spirit •■d In troth according to light given them directly by God him self. I tbrek that we speak wrongly here. There ore really three dlspen sstions: The first, the most ancient, patriarchal, from Adam and N<mb *o Abraham and to Moses; the seq- ■“d, the middle, Hebrew or Moeaie, from Mooes to the time of oar 8a- Thmr; sad third, the present, <ir these fu ■MSHRHK- rather than soleefisd the) by< to ends.
