They are thus overthrown by their own selves, while our position will be on both sides made sure.  Suppose it proved that the passage refers to the Son, “of whom” will be found applicable to the Son.  Suppose on the other hand it be insisted that the prophet’s words relate to God, then it will be granted that “through whom” is properly used of God, and both phrases have equal value, in that both are used with equal force of God.  Under either alternative both terms, being employed of one and the same Person, will be shewn to be equivalent.  But let us revert to our subject.
