Many an Israelite would look across to the long lines of black tents, and think, 'We are too few for our task'; but to God's eye they were too many, and the first necessity was to weed them out. The numbers must be so reduced that the victory shall be unmistakably God's, not theirs. The same sort of procedure, and for the same reason, runs through all God's dealings.
Oxford next avers that 'the earliest form of the Israelite religion was Fetishism or Totemism. This is another example of Stade's logic. Finding, as he believes, names suggestive of Totemism in Simeon, Levi, Rachel, and so on, Stade leaps to the conclusion that Totemism in Israel was prior to anything resembling monotheism.
I cannot believe that I can get well in a moment." And the young man dies in consequence of his own unbelief. God provided a remedy for this bitten Israelite "Look and live!" And there is eternal life for every poor sinner, Look, and you can be saved, my reader, this very hour. God has provided a remedy; and it is offered to all.

The congregation, facing about to look at the Jew in the gallery, amongst the negroes, were surprised to see tears on his gray eyelashes, and the colored elders, who loved Issachar exceedingly, exclaimed, in stentorian chorus: "Praise God for dat Israelite, in whom dar is no guile! Hallelujah!"
Let him go, my King, and give the clean-souled fan-bearer another Israelite for his daughter." "Why camest thou not sooner with this to the king?" Har-hat demanded. "I have but this moment learned of it, and I could not leave the court without one last act for the good of the oppressed," she replied. "Have it thy way, Ta-user. Come to me in an hour," Meneptah began. "Nay, write it now."
We have found reference to Jacob's history already in the conversation with Nathanael, 'An Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile. And here is an unmistakable reference to that story, when the fugitive, with his head on the stony pillow, and the violet Syrian sky, with all its stars, rounding itself above him, beheld the ladder on which the angels of God ascended and descended.
They were in the heart of Prague, in that dim quarter which is one of the strongholds of the Israelite, whence he directs great enterprises and sets in motion huge financial schemes, in which Israel sits, as a great spider in the midst of a dark web, dominating the whole capital with his eagle's glance and weaving the destiny of the Bohemian people to suit his intricate speculations.

On his return to the hotel the members of the Consistoire Israélite, the spiritual chiefs of the community, and deputations from all the charitable institutions called, and presented to him and Lady Montefiore addresses of congratulation. February 24th. We left Paris, and reached Dover on Friday, where we rested over the Sabbath.
So, for this deep mass of reasons, the new Israelites are first wholly accepted for the sake of their self-offered High Priest, that then they may be wholly transformed by His power, working through His peace, within themselves. That home is the Holy Place; it is the very Presence of his God; but it is home. Then, further, the new Israelite is to cherish the grace of godly fear.
