38677 | Who would not ask, when contemplating the vast extent of this work, how many myriads of men were required to complete it, and for how many years? 38677 Adar opened his mouth and spoke to the warrior Bel( El): Who would then be left? 38677 And granting this, must not the first beginning of culture in Egypt be carried back at least 500 years before Menes? 38677 And to Moses they said: Is it not enough that thou hast led us out of Egypt, to slay us in the desert? 38677 Arsissa was captured; 20,000 prisoners, their treasures, the gods Haldia(?) 38677 At a fortress over which is written Magadil( Migdol?) 38677 But how could the various kinds of fluid, for instance, be represented in these indicatory pictures? 38677 But what could induce the children of Jacob to go to Egypt, or the Egyptians to give them a pasture- land on their north- eastern border? 38677 But why had he not at once led them thither? 38677 Could dwellers in tents make regulations about receiving the stranger in their gates, about cities of refuge and cities of the Levites? 38677 Could the Hebrews, a peaceful nation and without practice in war, venture to resist the numerous, disciplined, and drilled armies of Egypt? 38677 Could tribes wandering in the desert have made rules for the celebration of the festivals of sowing, of harvest, and of the vintage? 38677 Did I not set forth at thy command; has not thy mouth led my armies, and thy counsel guided them? 38677 Did the priests really possess sketches of kings and accounts of their reigns reaching back more than 5,000 years? 38677 Does not the meaning of the name in the places quoted seem rather to be of a general kind, than to denote any one particular stock? 38677 Has the like been done before? 38677 Hast thou but one blessing? 38677 Have I not celebrated many brilliant festivals, and filled thy house with booty? 38677 How could any reasoning creature venture to make an image which should truly represent this nature? 38677 How could they be freed from the mighty power of the Pharaohs? 38677 How hast thou found it so quickly, my son? 38677 If this is true, what must have been expended upon iron for the tools, and on food and clothing for the workmen? |
38677 | If this were not so, why should Sethos have hit upon the plan of protecting the eastern frontier from Pelusium to Heliopolis, by a vast fortification? |

38677 | Who among the gods is like unto thee, Jehovah? |

2707 | And she said to him:"Now, therefore, what is it in thy mind to do?" |
2707 | And when Harpagos came, Astyages asked him thus:"By what death, Harpagos, didst thou destroy the child whom I delivered to thee, born of my daughter?" |
2707 | And whom of men or women didst thou slay?" |
2707 | Besides this, how is it in nature possible that Heracles, being one person only and moreover a man( as they assert), should slay many myriads? |
2707 | But he cried aloud and said:"Master, what word of unwisdom is this which thou dost utter, bidding me look upon my mistress naked? |
2707 | But this tale I do not admit as true, for how then did they pass over the river as they went back? |
2707 | Dost thou carry away by force from my temple the suppliants for my protection?" |
2707 | Finally, to sum up all in a single word, whence arose the liberty which we possess, and who gave it to us? |
2707 | Hearing this on his way, Cyrus said to Croesus as follows:"Croesus, what end shall I find of these things which are coming to pass? |
2707 | How then should it flow from snow, when it flows from the hottest parts to those which are cooler? |
2707 | How, O thou senseless one, will the enemy surrender to us more quickly, because thou hast maltreated thyself? |
2707 | How, think you, will king Dareios be content to receive such an insult; and how shall this which ye do be well for you, if ye take him away from us? |
2707 | In what manner, then, it will be asked, are they used up? |
2707 | Now therefore, to what does it seem to you that these things tend?" |
2707 | On the one hand, if thou shalt overcome them, what wilt thou take away from them, seeing they have nothing? |

2707 | What kind of a man shall I be esteemed by the citizens, and what kind of a man shall I be esteemed by my newly- married wife? |
2707 | Which of you, I say, will either bring Oroites alive to me or slay him? |
2707 | With what kind of a husband will she think that she is mated? |
38297 | Who,asks Xenophon,"could so quickly strike down opponents, separated from him by a road of many months, as the king of the Persians? |

38297 | A Babylonian cries to the Persians,"Why do you sit there? |
38297 | A man of the name of Arakha, an Armenian, rose up in the city of Dubana( Dubala, Dibleh?) |
38297 | After this I sent( an army?) |
38297 | Are not we Persians ruled by a Mede, a Magian, a fellow without ears? |

38297 | The pyre is already kindled when the question is asked by the interpreters, What is the meaning of the cry"Solon"? |
38297 | Was Polycrates to fight for Egypt whose naval power could not defend him against this fleet, or was he to remain neutral? |
38297 | Was it not Jehovah who made the depths of the sea to be your pathway, so that His redeemed passed through? |
38297 | Was it possible to check the outbreak of the storm of ruin in the face of the indomitable resistance of Babylon? |
38297 | Was not the fall of Babylon and the return home a sure pledge that the anger of Jehovah was appeased? |
38297 | What could the king, if victorious, take from them, when they had nothing? |

38209 | Why have I raised up these Mardians for such mischief? |
38209 | [ 415] Zarathrustra further inquires, whether corpses which have been carried by dogs, wolves, and panthers to a field make the field and men impure? 38209 ''Why should there not be such a man?'' 38209 ), tells us:I captured Birizchadri, the warden of the city of Madai(? |
38209 | And supposing that he was able to do this, would he have been unanimously elected king? |
38209 | And when Astyages asked,"What wild beast is this?" |
38209 | Angromainyu answered him: Wherewith wilt thou smite my creatures? |
38209 | Astyages said to him:''An excellent satrap are you; is it thus that you thank me, you and your son, for what I have done for you?'' |
38209 | But could the Athravas allow anything so unclean as a corpse to be laid on fire, the pure"son of Auramazda"? |
38209 | But what reason had Cyrus to cause the Persians to revolt? |
38209 | Could prayers of such a kind have been composed or written down in a primitive age? |
38209 | Cyrus pushed his questions further:''If such a venturesome man should appear, how might he accomplish his aim?'' |
38209 | For whom didst thou create the imperishable cow Ranyoçkereti( the Earth)? |
38209 | Had conceptions of this kind, and other later views which we find in their doctrines, influence on the restoration of the canon? |

38209 | How are we to chase away the lies, how shall I put the lies into the hand of Asha( Truthfulness)? |

38209 | Is the rain impure which has fallen on a corpse and then runs off from it, etc.? |
38209 | Leaving out of sight for the present the question, At what period did these writings come into existence? |
38209 | May we assume that we possess these in a genuine and unaltered form in the Avesta, though they have only come down to us in fragments? |
38209 | Or was the evil first introduced after the creation of the world? |
38209 | The dominion is in the hands of the priests and prophets of the lying gods; whither shall I go for refuge?--to what land shall I turn? |
38209 | The fire looks on the hands of all who come; what does the friend bring to the friend, he who approaches to him who sits alone? |
38209 | The king was astonished at the sight of him, and asked why he had not avoided such disgrace by death? |
38209 | The main reason for this change was the necessity of giving an answer to the question, Why did not the golden age continue? |
38209 | Then Cyrus asked:''Suppose that this man should appear, would you join in the danger with him?'' |
38209 | Then the evil Daevas ran and took counsel on the summit of Arezura, and Angromainyu spoke: What will the Daevas bring thither? |
38209 | These ran to meet the fugitives, and cried out to them,''Cowards, whither would ye fly, will ye creep back into the bosoms that bore you?'' |
38209 | To do this is proper for men who possess the dominion, and when can it be done better than now, when we have so many men, and rule over all Asia?" |
38209 | What is his penalty?" |
38209 | What must be done when a woman is in labour, etc., or when any one has made himself impure by touching a corpse, or has slain a water- dog( otter)? |

38209 | [ 466] And if such dire anarchy did indeed prevail among the Medes, what man in such times submits to even the most righteous sentence? |
38209 | and if, long after Yima, Zarathrustra proclaimed a new and better law, why had not Auramazda revealed this law to the favoured Yima? |

40864 | Belesys continued:"But if you were made king of the whole empire which Sardanapalus now possesses, what would you do?" |
40864 | But had Israel been grateful for this?--had he made any return?--had he kept the covenant which Jehovah had made with him, and his law? |

40864 | Was this the way to fulfil the commands of the just and holy God? |
40864 | Were Lydia and Media neighbouring countries after Nineveh fell, or before? |
40864 | What can the holy and just Lord in heaven care for offerings of food, frankincense, and drink? |

10478 | Whence come ye? |
10478 | Whereby,said he,"shall I_ know_ that I shall inherit it,"--that is Canaan,--"and that my seed shall be in number as the stars of heaven?" |
10478 | And he took the fire in his hand and a knife, and Isaac said,"Behold the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?" |
10478 | And how did the prophet receive her message? |

10478 | Is it possible for a human being to transcend so mighty a sacrifice, and all by the power of faith? |
10478 | Is it possible for language to express a deeper despondency, or a more tender grief? |
10478 | Is it true that in much wisdom is much grief, and that the increase of knowledge is the increase of sorrow? |
10478 | Is there not a change between youth and old age? |
10478 | Is thy soul tired of Zion? |
10478 | Isaac was a gentle, harmless, interesting youth of twenty, and what right, by any human standard, had Abraham to take his life? |
10478 | Moreover, had he not said that there should be neither rain nor dew but according to his word? |
10478 | Moreover, on principles of reason why should such a sacrifice be demanded? |
10478 | Now, whence had this man this wisdom? |
10478 | On their return to Ahaziah, without delivering their message to the god of the Phoenicians or Philistines, the king said:"Why are ye now turned back?" |
10478 | Or of whose hand have I received any bribe to blind my eyes therewith? |

10478 | There is a higher law still which speaks to the universal conscience, asking, What is your duty? |
10478 | They repeated the words of the strange man who had turned them back; and the king said:"What manner of man was he who came up to meet you?" |
10478 | Was it revealed to his exultant soul what this blessing should be? |
10478 | Was it the result of his studies and reflections and experiences, or was it a wisdom supernaturally taught him by the Almighty? |
10478 | Was there ever such a supreme act of obedience in the history of our race? |
10478 | Was this voice reproachful? |
10478 | What career was ever more varied? |
