[[11]] See on this subject Life and Letters of Dr. Hort (Macmillan), vol. ii. p. 337: 'Faith itself, not being an intellectual assent to propositions, but an attitude of heart and mind, is present in a more or less rudimentary state in every upward effort or aspiration of man.' Also Gibson, Thirty-Nine Articles (Methuen), ii. p. 420.
[[12]] Rom. viii. 4.
[[13]] Isa. lii. 5.
[[14]] See in Ezek. xxxvi. 22: 'My holy name, which ye have profaned among the nations, whither ye went.'
[[15]] Dr. Gifford suggests that the LXX was subsequently modified by St. Paul's citation (as in the next chapter, iii. 10-18), instead of his citation being moulded by the LXX. Is there any evidence in support of this view?
