About this book
The editor's preface says Jeremy Bentham, an eminent English judicial or jural philosopher, was born in London, February 15, 1748, and died at Westminster, his residence for six years previously, June 6, 1832. The text says that where passages from an Epistle of Paul are employed unaccompanied with any passage extracted from any of the four Gospels, the reader may, without much danger of error, venture to conclude that the point of doctrine thus supported appertains to the religion of Paul alone, and not to the religion of Jesus. Table I, headed Outward Conversion, shows at one view, under the head of Paul's Conversion, the different accounts from which the inference is drawn that the Conversion was outward only, not inward.
Chapter VI carries a heading that begins Paul disbelieved continued and speaks of Paul and Barnabas delegated by Antioch Saints, to confer on the Necessity of Jewish Rites to Heathen Converts to the Religion of Jesus. Section 4, headed Trial III, sets the place as Cæsarea, with a scene at the judicatory of "Governor" Felix and Orator Tertullus as prosecutor.
