Excerpt from An Attempt Towards an Improved Version, a Metrical Arrangement, and an Explanation of the Twelve Minor Prophets

The writings of these prophets bear plain signatures of their divine authority. Examine the books of the Greek and Roman sages and observe what discordant opinions they contain on almost every point of theologv and philosophy. Hut 111 the Hebrew prophets there is a wonderful harmony of doctrine for above a 1 thousand years unparalleled in the writings of any country. History teaches us that a great number of their prophe cies has been accomplished and we know that some of them are accomplishing at this day. It also peculiarly deserves our notice, that theseiholy men entertained the most worthy conceptions of the Deity in the midst of an idolatrous nation, and inculcated the supreme excellence of moral duties, when all around them, even the few worshippers of Jehovah himself, were solely intent on ritual Observances.

Contr. Ap. I. 8. From Moses before Christ about 1500, to Malachi before Christ about 436.
