the Messiah to the Father of the universe, I have
endeavoured to arrange them methodically, begin-

himself, agreeably to the proposal of the Reverend
Editor.
Quotations by Jesus himself exactly agreeing
with the Hebrew.
Matthew iv. 4 : "Man shall not live by bread alone,
but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of
God ;'' the same in L,2ike iv. 4, compared with Deut. viii.
ver. 3 : And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to
hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest

Matthew iv. 7 : " Thou shalt not tempt the Lord
thy God "—compared with Dent. vi. 16,17: "Ye shall
not tempt the Lord your God, as ye tempted him in
Massah. Ye shall diligently keep the commadments of
the Lord 3^our God, and his testimonies, and his statutes,
which he hath commanded thee."
