Washington Irving Quotes
It Was His Belief, Furthermore, That This Religion, So Elevated And Simple, Had Repeatedly Been Corrupted And Debased By Man, And Especially Outraged By Idolatry; Wherefore A Succession Of Prophets, Each Inspired By A Revelation From The Most High, Had Been Sent From Time To Time, And At Distant Periods, To Restore It To Its Original Purity. Such Was Noah, Such Was Abraham, Such Was Moses, And Such Was Jesus Christ. By Each Of These, The True Religion Had Been Reinstated Upon Earth, But Had Again Been Vitiated By Their Followers. The Faith, As Taught And Practiced By Abraham When He Came Out Of The Land Of Chaldea, Seems Especially To Have Formed A Religious Standard In His Mind, From His Veneration For The Patriarch As The Father Of Ishmael, The Progenitor Of His Race.
