Edersheim - Prophecy History Messiah

Lectures delivered during the years 1880-84 in the Chapel of Lincoln s Inn on the foundation of Bishop Warburton. I ts object, as expressed in the Will of the founder, is to prove the truth of revealed religion in general, and of the Christian in particular, from the completion of those prophecies in the Old and New Testaments which relate to the Christian Church, especially to the apostasy of Papal Koine. From the wide range of subjects thus opened, it was necessary to select one and naturally that, which would most directly meet the present phase of theological discussion, and so best fulfill the purpose for which the Lectureship had been instituted. Not, indeed, that the primary object should be negative, either in the defense of Catholic truth from its assailants, or in the refutation of objections brought against it.
