Israel – A Prince With God (English Edition)

It was the custom with some of the older commentators to write as though their loyalty to God’s Spirit required that they should show that the acts of the Old Testament saints were all of them consistent with the highest morality. This was specially evident in their remarks on the career of the patriarch whose name stands on our title page. Ingenious attempts have been made to palliate episodes and transactions in his life, which at first sight certainly conflict with our conceptions of righteousness.
