About this book
The discussion presents the first imperial Caesar as Christ’s most mighty precursor, describing him as unwittingly preparing the way for the advance of the Messiah. The argument says changes in Roman government and the extension of Roman civilization seem to have contributed more than any other political action could to the diffusion and perpetuity of Christian faith. The account of a fever cautiously offers a guess that the illness was intermittent, connecting that possibility with marsh influences and the location of Capernaum.
The commentary treats the immediate termination of the fever as abundant evidence of the divine power of Christ's word over agencies harmful to human health and happiness. The account of Peter's arrival at Antioch reports conduct that met Paul's decided reprehension, drawing upon Paul's epistle to the Galatians.
