Our blessed Xord himself seems to point to some such dis- pensation on several occasions : " Ye do err, not knowing the Scriptures, " said he to the Sadducees, and yet the proof of their ignorance consisted in their not having per- ceived the resurrection of the dead to be taught in the Avords, " I am the Grod of Abraham, and the Grod of Isaac, and the God of Jacob : " and again, when the disciples were desponding, as they walked to Emmaus, he charged them with foolishness, because they had not detected all the incidents of the closing scene of his earthly life in Moses and the prophets.
