We do not give publicity to it to establish the idea that the Jews believe in the resurrection.-This every intelligent man must concede. The Jews, as a body-those that were considered orthodox, at least-always believed in the resurrection, as the scriptures abundantly testify.-There was a sect in our Savior's day, that did not believe in the resurrection, nor in angels or spirits; but they were very inconsiderable. Their doctrines were considered unpopular and false, and Paul in his day had nothing to do but to proclaim himself a believer in the resurrection, to obtain a temporary protection from the Pharisees, at least in the time of his difficulty.-ED.
