These are but two among many passages of Scripture which declare the restoration of the Jews.

If, then, the Jews were the chosen people of God-if God manifested such peculiar love to them-if the holy men of whom we read in the Old Testament were Jews-if the prophets were Jews-if JESUS according to the flesh was a Jew-if, though He is now chastening them for sin, God has promised to forgive and receive them again on their repentance-what ought to be our conduct and feelings with respect to the Jews?

Should we not love, pity, and pray for them?

And ought we not to take warning by their example? See Rom. xi. 18-22. Yes: we should seriously consider these words of the Apostle; we should fear lest we should abuse our privileges; lest we also fall.

Some persons who love Jesus Christ, have employed means to instruct the Jews, and bring them to the knowledge of the Saviour. Would you like to give a few pence to assist in giving them the New Testament? And if you have no pence at all to give, what can you at least do?

For what should you particularly pray with respect to the Jews?

We should pray that the promises concerning them may be speedily fulfilled, that they may be restored to the favour of God, that they may

acknowledge their Messiah, and bless the name of JESUS.

"O MERCIFUL GOD, who hast made all men, and hatest nothing that thou hast made, nor wouldest the death of a sinner, but rather that he should be converted and live, Have mercy upon all Jews, Turks, Infidels, and Heretics, and take from them all ignorance, hardness of heart, and contempt of thy word; and so fetch them home, blessed Lord, to thy flock, that they may be saved among the remnant of the true Israelites, and be made one fold under one Shepherd, Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen."
