But in this case the message brought was of the profoundest and most comprehensive character; it went to the very root of mankind and, although set in the framework of the Jewish nation, it addressed itself to the whole of humanity — the message from God the Father. Defective it is not, and its real kernel may be readily freed from the inevit...able husk of contemporary form. Antiquated it is not, and in life and strength it still triumphs to-day over all the past. He who delivered it has as yet yielded his place to no man, and to human life he still to-day gives a meaning and an aim — he tJic Son of God. This already brings us to the other designation which Jesus gave of himself: tJie Messiah. Before I attempt briefly to explain it, I ought to mention that some scholars of note — and among them Well- hausen — have expressed a doubt whether Jesus de- scribed himself as the Messiah, In that doubt I cannot concur; nay, I think that it is only by wrenching what the evangelists tell us off its hinges that the opinion can be maintained.
