Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Eight Discourses: Preached Before the University of Cambridge in the Year MDCCCXLIV
According, then, to the popular definition of a miracle, the great question which presented itself to the Jews of Old was, -whether the immediate agency in the production of the miracles of Jesus, was that of the Almighty, or of demons. Or, - if it be under stood that a miracle cannot be wrought without the direct interposition of God, - whether the works of Jesus were miracles, or not. This question it is now proposed to investigate. We are about to examine how far those unhappy men were justified in acting, as they did, on the assumption that the works which were exhibited before their eyes, -such being the character of him who wrought them, - such the character of his teaching, -and such the character of the works themselves, - were merely Satan's devices to under mine their faith, and to seduce them from their alle giance to Jehovah.
