Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Star of the Wise Men: Being a Commentary on the Second Chapter of St. Matthew The Birth of the Lord of Glory on earth had its corresponding sign in the heavens. The natural limits of an essay which should undertake to treat of that sign, and of the events most intimately linked with its appearing, are those, as will easily be perceived, of the second chapter of St. Matthew; all the incidents of which hang in closest connexion on the coming of the Magi, and accomplish themselves, (with the inclusion, indeed, according to one arrangement, of the presentation in the temple, Luke ii. 22-38,) in a perfect and independent cycle. The chapter is thus singularly complete in itself, finding the infant Saviour at Bethlehem, and leaving him at Nazareth, and constituting, if we may reverently apply the word, an episode in the life of our blessed Lord. This episode it is my purpose to consider, and to do so with something of the fulness which an essay devoted exclusively to it would alone permit.
