Footnotes
[1.] My quotations throughout this work are taken from the first edition. The passage here quoted is somewhat altered in the third edition, but not so as to affect the general meaning. [2.] The word which is here translated in the A. V. “miracles” is in the original σημεῖα. [3.] J. S. Mill, in his recently published essays, considers this the most formidable objection against theism. [4.] See for example, Matt. v. 39-42, Luke vi. 20, 21, 24-26, and various others of a similar description. [5.] “The Jesus of the Evangelists.” [6.] Mr. Mill, in his recently published Essay on Theism, has strongly expressed his belief that these discourses are the veritable utterances of Jesus.
