The JewSi
It is curious, not to say
amusing, to see how people re-j
sent the introduction of the Jew-j
ish element into George Eiiiot’s \
last great story. That the Jews j
killed Christ is the principal!
thing that many excellent Chris- j
tians remember about that ex-
traordinary race. They forget
that the race also gave birth to
Christ. That Christ should he
killed by any people among
Vhom lie might appear was iii-
evimbie, and had to do with hu-
man nature at large. The ex-
ceptional and marvelous thing,
speaking secularly, Was his pro-
dubtiotu There can be no reply,
to the ifehiendotis retort ot the!
Israelite upon whom the Chris-
tian lmd spar—that half Chris-
tendom worship a Jew, and the
other hall a Jewess. Says Mat-
thew Arnold, “As well imagine
a man with a sense for sculpt lire
hot chiiivatihg it by the help of
the remains Of Oibek art, or a
hi ah with a sense for poetry hot
Cultivating it by the help of
Homer and Shakespeare, as a 1
man with a sense for conduct i
not cultivating it by the help of
the Bible!” “Greece was the
lifter up to the nations of the
banner of art and science, as
Israel was the lifter-tip of the
banner of righteousness.”—'“The
Old Cabinet” in,Scribner'1 s for
November.

otherwise.
