Should such a striking phenomenon be ignored in our thinking about these mat­ ters as is presented by the fact that the Jewish Passover has been celebrated con­ tinuously to this very year during these three or four thousand years, although the sacred fires of Persia and those tended by the Vestal Virgins of Rome, which were to be kept burning forever, have been out for centuries, in the light of the words we find in this same old Book: “And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the Lord throughout your generations: ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever” (Ex, 12:14). In this matter of prophecy, two facts are self-evident: If the prophecy was not as­ suredly delivered long before the event, we have nothing to be astonished at; if the events did not and do not fulfill the proph­ ecy, we have a demonstration that it was fradulent. But here the predictions are found in a Book completed and translated into the world-famous Septuagint Version over two thousand years ago, and the events fulfilling them are matters of per­ sonal knowledge and newspaper notoriety. And the chance of accidental fulfillment of the prophecies in the Bible which have been actually and exactly done and accomplished has been compared by a great mathemati­ cian (Olinthus Gregory) to a fraction whose numerator is a grain of sand and whose denominator is the bulk of the earth many times magnified. Does any lawyer of us know of any other issue or item of human certainty established by such an overwhelming "weight of evidence” as this prophetic fulfillment which proves that the God who alone controls and knows the future put this supernatural thing in the Bible? Will any man deny his own eye­ sight that it is there? Will he deny his own reason that it is a miracle? And if a mir­ acle, who but God could perform the thing which our very senses attest has been done? [Further evidence furnished by Mr. Linton will follow in an early issue.]

HOPE ST., L08 ANGELES CONSIDER THE EVIDENCE! {Continued from page 12] “The Lord shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shall set over thee, unto a na­ tion which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone. And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the Lord shall lead thee. . . . And the Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone. And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the Lord shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind; And thy life shall hang in doubt be­ fore thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life: In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! for the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see” (Deut. 28:36, 37, 64-67). Other amazing fulfilled and improbable prophecies predicted that while the nations then surrounding the Jews would be com­ pletely ended, though subject to no such scattering and banishment of their people as foretold for the Jews, the Jews alone should not be ended and should not lose their racial identity (though it is obvious their persecution has through the ages pre­ sented every inducement to them to inter­ marry and escape their troubles by merg­ ing with other nationalities) and should, when came the time of the "twilight of the Gentiles,” return to their long-deserted and desolate land, as they are doing at the present day.
