They (these curses now mentioned) shall be upon thee for a sign This, indeed, they have been in a most wonderful and astonishing manner. Since man was first placed on the earth, never was there a people that were such a sign to all the inhabitants of it as the Jews have been. Never did any other people experience such a strange series of events; never were calamities like theirs; never were people so dispersed, and carried into captivity, and yet kept so entire and separate, and thereby made a spectacle and sign to all nations. Though the above verse was written above three thousand years ago, yet do the nations of the earth see it in full force at this day! The seed of this very people still remain, and their state is such, as makes them for a sign and a wonder over the face of the earth. What a striking and wonderful evidence is this of the divinity of the Holy Scriptures! Who but God, que declara el fin desde el principio , ¿podría declarar esto y llevarlo a cabo? ¡Oh Dios, muy maravilloso eres! ¡Haces que tus enemigos den testimonio de tu verdad y promuevan tu honor!
