To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What was the particular device inscribed on the signet ring of Zerubbabel we cannot now determine, but we may conjec- ture, and perhaps approximate to truth. The signets of the ancients were generally sculptured with religious symbols, or the heads of their deities. The sphynx and the sacred beetle were favorite signets among the Egyptians. The former was adopted from that people by the Roman Emperor Au- gustus. The Babylonians followed the same custom, and many of their signets, remaining to t...his day, exhibit beauti- fully sculptured images of Baal-Beritii, and other Chal- dean deities. It was, perhaps, from the Babylonians that Zekubbabel learned the practice of wearing one, for Hero- dotus tells us that every Babylonian had a signet. But the anti-idolatrous character of his faith must have prevented the Jewish prince from using any of the Chal- dean objects of worship as a seal. May he not rather have adopted the great religious symbol of the Hebrews, and inscribed upon his signet ring the tetragrammaton or om- nific name ?
