In a given state of society, a certain number of persons must put an end to their own life. This is the general law; and the special question as to who shall commit the crime depends of...
עמוד 210 - Though we commonly regard mental and bodily life as distinct, it needs only to ascend somewhat above the ordinary point of view, to see that they are but sub-divisions of life in general ; and that no line of demarcation can be drawn between them, otherwise than arbitrarily.
עמוד 70 - Chaldaic, with such late forms as ^isi ^ and •£» the pronominal n and n having passed into ~\, and not only minute description of Antiochus's reign, but the stoppage of such description at the precise date 169 BC, remove all philological and critical doubt as to the age of the book.
