These lectures by Dr. Saphir, delivered in Kensington at the end of 1889 and the beginning of 1890, represent some of his most significant writings, presenting his developed views on the relationship between the two main divisions of the Bible. His deep understanding of the spirit and connection within sacred texts made his preaching appealing to earnest-minded Christians across various denominations. His interpretations were grounded in reality, revealing the profound meanings behind the Old Testament's symbols and prophecies as well as the narratives and teachings of the New Testament. He convincingly demonstrated the unity of biblical teaching and illustrated it powerfully. His identification of Jehovah with Jesus is a compelling argument for any diligent and prayerful student of Scripture, evident in Jesus' own claims and teachings. Additionally, his distinction between monotheism and Jehovahism is crucial, clarifying much of the ambiguity in contemporary speculation. Dr. Saphir was a figure of remarkable intellect and genius, contributing significantly to biblical scholarship.
