ARE INCREDIBLE NARRATIVES OF JEWS TO BE TREATED WITH
MORE RESPECT THAN INCREDIBLE NARRATIVES OF
OTHER AUTHORS? IF SO, WHY?

By J. W. WILLCOCK, Q.C.

The Bene" Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, Hittites, and Amorites, and Perizzites, and Hivites,
and Jebusites: and they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their
sons, and served their gods."-JUDGES iii. 5, 6.

"We will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto
the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers,
our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we
plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil. But since we left off to burn incense to the queen
of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been
consumed by the sword and by the famine."-JEREMIAH xliv. 17, 18.
