Excerpt from The Gentile and the Jew, Vol. 1 of 2: In the Courts of the Temple of Christ This work is, I believe, the first attempt that has been made to represent the Paganism of the period previous to our Lord, with at least an effort at completeness, the sketch embracing the heathen religious system, heathen modes of thought and speculation, heathen philosophy, life, and manners, so far as they were severally connected with the religion, were determined by it, and reacted upon it in their turn. The title of my work indicates the point of view from which the sketch is taken. The history of Christianity necessarily presumes, for the bare understanding of it, an acquaintance with the history of the Pagan and the Jew. The questions, - what soil did Christianity find to build on? to what doctrines and systems of thought could it attach itself? what circumstances paved the way for it, and forwarded and facilitated its expansion? what obstacles, prejudices, and errors had it to overcome? what adversaries to encounter? what evils to remedy? how did Paganism react on Christianity? - all these questions, on the importance of which it were superfluous to waste a word here, admit, as it appears to me, of a satisfactory solution only through an exposition, penetrating as deeply beneath the surface, and of as wide an horizon, as the present.
