Christ the Glory of Israel
Luke 2:32
A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel.


Christ was the glory of Israel.

1. Because He was a Jew by birth.

2. Because His history has vindicated all that was peculiar in the Jewish polity.

3. Because He confined His personal ministry to the Jews.

4. Because He has stamped the impress of Jewish thought on the mind of man.

5. Because He has invested the condition and prospects of the Jews with universal interest.
