Mighty in the Scriptures

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The life of Dr. Saphir was one of remarkable interest, not so much in its variety of incidents, as in its early associations, and in the striking personnel of the man. This is seen in his thorough Jewish type of mind and intellect, intensified by the genius of the Saphir family, in the freshness and originality of his ideas and expressions, and above all, in his spiritual power — his deep insight into the meaning of Scripture and the relations of its different parts.
