Our chief contention has been that these characteristics are due to the nature of the social order that has prevailed among them, and not to the inherent nature of the people; and that the evolution of the psychic characteristics of all races is due to social more than to biological evolution. This position and the discussions offered to prove it imply more than has been explicitly stated.
Abraham Hogeboom, appointed him to that office, instructing him, however, that no movement was to be made unless the full complement of emigrants should desire, in good faith, to remove to the West, and Hogeboom was also explicitly informed that "the Government would not undertake the emigration of these Indians unless two hundred and fifty of them, then residing in the State of New York, exclusive of the Canada Indians, should muster themselves and actually go with the agent."
Taking for granted all these things which the Scriptures elsewhere explicitly teach, the Master in this lesson confines his attention to one thing, perseverance in prayer when the answer does not come at first, perseverance and pertinacity aye and until the object is attained. It is expressly intimated in the narrative that there is sometimes a long, and from our view-point inexplicable delay.
The original Toombs bill had also referred explicitly to a ratification of the constitution by the people; but when it was reported from Douglas's committee in an amended form, it had been stripped of this provision.
In the very act of circumcision he is not being circumcised, and in the very act of fulfilling the Law he fulfills it not." This seems to be the simple meaning of Paul's statement. Later on in the sixth chapter he explicitly states, "They themselves which are circumcised keep not the law. The fact that you are circumcised does not mean you are righteous and free from the Law.
I have said that I would not vex thee again with my love. Once I offered thee marriage as refuge. My love and the shelter of my name are thine to take or leave. I will urge thee no more." He paused for a space and, as she made no answer, he went on as though she had rejected him explicitly. "Then I shall hide thee somewhere in Egypt. The ruse is not secure, but it may serve."
The wording of the parable itself furnishes the information. The sexual propensity forbidden by the censor is incest. That it can be mentioned in the parable in spite of the censor is accounted for by the exceedingly clever and unsuspected bringing about of the suggestion. Incest can be explicitly mentioned, because it is attributed to persons that have apparently nothing to do with the wanderer.
On the whole, he had tempered audacity with modesty; and it is but fair to him now to say explicitly that he would have been incapable of taking advantage of his present large allowance of familiarity to make love to the younger of his handsome cousins. Felix had grown up among traditions in the light of which such a proceeding looked like a grievous breach of hospitality.
"Don't you do it, Patty; I'll write them all down most explicitly. And then I want a scarf, a very long one, cream-coloured ground, with a Persian border in blues and greys. But not a palm-leaf border I mean that queer stencilled sort of a design; I'll draw a pattern of it so you can't mistake it." "But suppose I can't find just that kind, Marian." "Oh, yes, you can!
‘Abdu’l-Bahá, may our lives be sacrificed for His sacred dust, has bestowed on us a wondrous gift, a most great favour. He has clearly shown us the highway of guidance and explicitly designated the Centre toward whom all the people of Bahá must turn, and with His own bounteous pen has written down for us what will ensure prosperity and progress, and salvation and bliss, for evermore.
