    theSheckmah , ( By whichexpression the visible sigifr of God ' s presence with his people is certainly meant ) . Now Jewieb writers have sometimes spoken of their expected Messiah as the Shechinah , therefore the writer of the book Sohar understood the

    Messiah by Jehovah , Exod . xiii . 21 , and believed him to be truly God . ° By such reasoning any doctrine might be established .

    Messiah , whom the Je \ tfs expected as a conqueror ; but what cat * be dearer than that Ood , who d ^ lk the Messiali by his name to do him honour , aivl express his purpose of giving him success , is his superior in nature ? We have but one passage raoife , that from

    Bava Bathraj atid surely I M&&& do do more than remark , tHat the Just and Jerusalem are in precisely the same state with the Messiah . The reference to Jar . xxiiL 6 SJ shews the way in which the writer understood the Messiah to come under the name of Ood ,

    I think I have shewn that Sehoettgenius has not proved from their WiftibgS that the Jews expected their Messiah as Jehovah , or ascribed this name to him as expressive of his Deity or Divine nature j and he has certainly nothing stronger to produce respecting any of the otfher names which can at all be considered as

    implying superiority of nature . I may , if I caa fina time hereafter , send you a few observations on'the rubbinical sense of the phrase Son of G&d , as wfell as on the phrase fFord of God , in the Tar ^ ume / ttttd oa the Spirit of Gad being the Spirit of the Messiah , fn the mean tune I must venture ta contradict Mr . ^ iirtey * s asserttocf respe
