ABSTRACT
When spoken to on the subject of his eternal interests, he said but little; and, on being informed of the prospect of dissolution, he evinced much uneasiness, and said, he should not like to die. Eventually, however, he became quite resigned, and said, he should like to be with Jesus. At first attendance of Jews was small, and there seemed on their part no inclination to speak. The number, however, gradually increased, and some of the speakers at the former conferences appeared to advocate Judaism, or to offer their objections against Christianity. A third Jewish speaker endeavored to show that the New Testament was invented and written by persons who did not understand Hebrew, but had been misled by the Septuagint version. These objections all required distinct answers, and this interfered with the plan originally proposed, at the same time that it afforded an opportunity of exhibiting the great variety and power of the evidences of the truth of Christianity.
